[edit] merge
Context: This discussion is in regards to a proposal on erototoxin to merge/redirect that article with Judith A. Reisman. This article (Judith Reisman) also redirects to Judith A. Reisman.
I support the merge — discussion of Judith Reisman is pretty much the only context "erototoxin" is used in. —Slicing (talk) 07:41, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
- Definitely support the merge. Erototoxins (although a very cool word) are obviously a fabrication and have no significance outside of Judith Reisman. Meekohi 16:23, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
- Merge. Because I'm a conformist, and the source article is waaay too short to merit four headings all on its own. Cernen 23:38, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
- Comment. Apparantly Jimbo thinks its good enough that he's www.cafepress.com/wikipedia/530259 selling it on tshirts. - Shinmawa 07:35, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
- Merge. It's a shame about the t-shirts, but oh well. -- Schaefer 08:26, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
- Don't Merge. Why not just keep it there in case someone sees it out of context?
- Merge. Redirect to Judith Reisman? -- 08:11, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
- Don't Merge. I only read the article becuase of the t-shirt. This genie is out of the bottle. While there is not much substance to the article the promotion of the article specificly requires that it remain a seperate article. - Anonymous
- Don't merge. There is precedence for giving pseudoscience concepts their own articles, even ones associated with one individual proponent (see Atomidine, Japhetic theory (linguistics), Mucoid plaque, Vitamin O. The article serves to advance human knowledge because, as an anonymous commentor points out above, someone who hears something about erototoxins out of context would be glad to find that article to adress any misconceptions s/he had. Finally, the t-shirt leads many people to the article. It's just nice to keep it separate, and it really doesn't hurt the encyclopedia. Fishal 18:49, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
- Merge. Granting "erototoxin" its own page suggests that we take it serious. Granting a crank his/her own page doesn't. It's that simple. Steinbach (fka Caesarion) 12:34, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
- We're not taking it seriously if the article refutes the theory. Fishal 15:32, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
