There is no indication that this is an new and unique medical condition. Relevant info can instead be included in the article on the village. I cannot find any medical sources on the sickness, only news reports with speculation. P. S. Burton (talk) 18:26, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NOTNEWS: this is a news report, not an encyclopedic article, written by copy-pasting/closely paraphrasing parts of news articles. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 19:04, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

* Keep per it's current state. A new editor that goes by the name "Srhesler29" vandalized this article several times. I have revered this yet again. Jonas Vinther • (speak to me!) 19:12, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per P. S. Burton and Qwertyus. A cluster of people have been found to be unwell, the cause has not been identified. While this is interesting, such speculation should not be the basis for an encyclopedic article named as if it were an established medical condition. As far as I can see, the current reports are certainly not sufficient for anyone to be portraying this as accepted diagnostic term. Drchriswilliams (talk) 19:39, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as separate article and merge information into article on the Kalachi. Not enough to stand on its own; speculation, as well. Kierzek (talk) 21:38, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I've decided to delete my support vote and instead throw in a delete vote per new comments and arguments. Jonas Vinther • (speak to me!) 21:03, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above. BakerStMD T|C 19:04, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
