Miracle of the Sun

I removed the Miracle of the Sun due to WP:NPOV concerns. The article itself, nor any of the sources describe this as a confirmed case of mass hysteria. Scorpions13256 (talk) 03:36, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Haven't checked how long it has been on the page, but removing it is definitely the right thing to do. Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 03:49, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Randy Kryn It has been in the article for about two years. Scorpions13256 (talk) 03:53, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to suggest an entry to be added to the list of mass panic cases. It pertains to the 'fugue epidemic' between 1887 and 1909. It was described by the philosophers Ian Hacking in his book "Mad Travelers", on which there is a wikipedia article. People would travel for hundreds of miles - often on foot - while being unconscious or half conscious. They often also lost (part of) their identity in the process. I believe this is a fitting addition to the list of mass panic cases - through perhaps it could also fit in the wikipedia article entitled 'Mass psychogenic illness'. What do you think?

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. M.Bitton (talk) 18:43, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of ‘Pokémon Shock’.

Calling that ‘mass hysteria’ when the reason why it happened is very well and clearly documented is kind of insulting. Those seizures happened due to bright, quick flashing lights. That’s not hysteria.

i put that forward for removal. Sneakycrown (talk) 23:51, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
