Balloon fetishism

I really cannot do much better here than to quote the final paragraph: "For people who desire treatment for the balloon fetish, is suggested Neuro Linguistic Programming. In fact, due to the very lack of information is observed by the Psychotherapy professionals the fetish is thought to be very obscure. Because of the perceived obscure nature of the fetish, fetishists keeping it secret, it is very common for Psychologists never to have heard about it." So there you have it. A fetish that most psychologists have never heard of, with (in confirmation) zero credible medical or psychological sources. The article is long, but reads as WP:OR and is heavily compromised by weasel words. Guy (Help!) 11:12, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails WP:OR and as it stands WP:V--Anthony.bradbury 12:12, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This is original research, and judging by the lack of reliable sources, it does not seem appropriate to have an article on such a fetish at this time. The only ghits I can find on this are: [1],[2], and [3] but I am not certain these would constitute reliable sources. It seems, for now, to be a relatively obscure thing, with no credible sources that prove this exists. It's not a hoax, judging by the amount of ghits it gets - [4], but it doesn't seem encyclopedic either, perhaps in part, due to lack of official medical/psychological sources. --SunStar Net^talk 12:47, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
