Sketchy phobia
I'm not a psychiatrist, so I did not write any copy for this article. As far as phobias go, it does seems little sketchy. However there are lots of decent sources for it, so I have added four of them to the article.104.163.141.185 (talk) 07:19, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- For the editor who removed two sources as "flaky", I disagree. Not sure what axe you might have to grind here-- the sources are dcent and only support the very simple statement that ornithophobia means fear of birds. Not making any extraordinary claims here.104.163.141.185 (talk) 07:26, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- There is no end to horrible sources about phobias. The Milosevec/McCabe book is good - solid and concise. if you look in pubmed (search) there are just two very old sources, both of them horrific. PMID 6069561 is a nightmare of old school awful Freudian analysis (including hysterical women whose dreams are analyzed to be about masturbating) and PMID 14949213 is not much better. We don't need 50 shades of stupidness either. Please keep source quality high especially on dodgey topics like this. Jytdog (talk) 07:33, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- the article doees not make any claims so far beyond a) it's a phobia of birds and b) the etymology. EXTREMELY uncontroversial. It does still seem to be recognized as a phobia/anxiety disorder, so I see no reason to remove the decent sources that support the very uncontroversial claims of the article. This is not a dodgey disorder: it's an anxiety disorder that appears ot be fairly well known. There are lots of examples of it in many published sources. Just because you think it's sketchy, you don't get to rewrite history to remove it. Once notable, always notable. 104.163.141.185 (talk) 07:38, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- Others will come along and remove these bad sources. You also fucked up the reference I fixed and removed sourced content i added, to keep the shitty sources. Whatever. Jytdog (talk) 07:48, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- You need to respect WP:CIVIL and not swear at other editors. That is a no-no.104.163.141.185 (talk) 07:52, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- I didn't swear at you. I said you fucked something up and the sources are shitty. a description of an action and of sources. Not you. Jytdog (talk) 07:55, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you for the clarification. If that is the case, I find your actions of storming in and reverting, then being resistant to discussion, then swearing, then denigrating my contributions, to be very childish. Of course I refer to your actions, not you. 104.163.141.185 (talk) 08:01, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- one of the refs you found was good. that was useful. Jytdog (talk) 19:26, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Combining alektorophobia with this article was a mistake. My girlfriend is afraid of chickens and other fowl, not of birds generally. The original alektorophobia article was also much more complete. Reboot (talk) 05:35, 26 July 2017 (UTC) Reboot (talk) 05:35, 26 July 2017 (UTC)

Unexplained reversion
Hey @Staszek Lem: Why did you revert my copy edits? They look right to me. Thanks, SchreiberBike | ⌨ 05:27, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
- I made wrong revert. The IP 2607:fea8:4d20:11d:19a4:7564:672a:b7dd added lots of text not present in refs cited. Staszek Lem (talk) 17:53, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
So.. somebody plz tell me wth is going on?
I made a revision to the ornithophobia page and it could have been worse (i must've been on crack while writing down "alexktorophobia..."), but it gets reedited over and over again. The reason why i reedited the page is because it seemed waaay to short, and did not go to in depth of the fear (Do you want people to look it up on Phobia Wiki?). Was i too subjective somehow or what?
Somebody please answer me on this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dontuseurrealname (talk • contribs) 18:47, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
If Gibson's fear of owls is notable, perhaps it should be added to his article? But it should be noted that the YouTube video], added as a source produces, "Video unavailable" in the UK. Martinevans123 (talk) 21:01, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- Looks like it's all moot now. Hsxeric (talk) 02:11, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
