Gotanda has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: Non-notable psychology term without significant news coverage or academic research. Linked to already deleted flying monkeys. No reliable citations, just a blog. Gotanda (talk) 22:03, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please discuss this request below, but keep in mind that you shouldn't vote on everything and that there may be options other than "keep" or "delete", such as merging.

Disagree I have to disagree with the nominator. This is a valid term and has many sources. It needs to be expanded. Domestic violence by any means in the United States is not tolerated and is a valid topic to be on here, simplified of course.--PotsdamLamb (talk) 17:32, 9 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you have many reputable sources for this, please bring them. Saying they exist is not enough. The cited Carla Coreli refs are not reliable. A news search for the phrase "Abuse by proxy" gets nothing reliable or relevant. Google Scholar gets mostly Munchausen by proxy. Gotanda (talk) 10:19, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as nonsense. Macdonald-ross (talk) 08:05, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: All I found was Münchhausen by proxy (and variations). Yes, abuse often happens in a group, and the peoeple in the group often talk to each other. So far, I haven't seen that this has a medical name. So, if it exists, we really need evidence for it.--Eptalon (talk) 17:23, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
