this is real puma

"In the Africa"?!?!? Probably the original article said "US" instead? This seems like a stupid prank

I don't know what genius thought Africa had laws. Each individual African country has laws. Africa as a whole does not. --WanderingHermit

"Even in Japan, where most of such pacts have occurred, they still represent only 2% of all group suicide-pacts, and less than .01% of all suicides combined. "

To which year does this percentage apply? --Apollonius 16:09, 12 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Even though all of this is true, it's not very helpful but thanks anyway.

This article isn't very clear... is Internet suicide when you meet on the internet and plan to do suicide? --Kookoo275 19:17, 4 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Wouldn't it be weird if a person that wanted to commit suicide is on this article right now? 66.109.197.11 02:58, 5 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

It says that internet suicide represents "less than 0.01% of all suicides combined." Then it says that 91 internet suicide pacts occured in 2005. This would imply a combined total of over 910,000 suicides in Japan. This not only sounds ridiculous but is contradicted by the article on Japanese suicide, which implies that annual suicide rates are around 30,000 per year. So either the statements are unclear (maybe it meant there were 91 internet suicides worldwide?) or they are incorrect.

Deletion?

I wouldn't mind this article being put on AfD, but the {prod} seems too facile to me. The term is indeed, of course, a neologism; but it is a new word arguably created to describe a new phenomenon. The text of the article does not read like a dictionary definition either. It is not necessarily as well cited or organized as it should be, but the tone generally discusses the concept, its history and occurrence, and so on... exactly what a WP article should do.

Hmm... I think it needs some evidence that the term is widely used outside of Wikipedia (which might be the reason someone put the numerous fact tags). The reason I think neologisms generally get deleted is that we are trying to avoid a situation where Wikipedia becomes a place for people to make up words... if it has been cited in mainstream publications, I'd be happy to see the citations added to the article. ausa کui × 03:15, 20 August 2007 (UTC)Reply
There seem to be more than one pretty solid citations in the article. I haven't followed them, but on their face they seem legit. LotLE×talk 05:37, 20 August 2007 (UTC)Reply
This is definitely not a candidate for PROD - it'd be a controversial deletion. AfD would be much better here - people should not use PROD on deletions that look anywhere near controversial.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 00:34, 24 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
