No sources, only one important contributor; probably a hoax, a misspelling of skosh. —Bkell (talk) 03:02, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Interesting article, obviously needs sources to validate this "interesting information" that may be a hoax. I would suggest we give it a little time to see if the author can provide some independent sources to support the information in the article. LakeBoater (talk) 03:14, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong delete - Non-notable (zero g-hits) and extremely likely to be a hoax. The phrase "a scosch is about 3.1415 seconds" is ridiculous; I will not believe without some very good citations, that the ancient Indo-aryans had a unit of measure that is pi to the five significant figures in seconds. -Samuel Tan 03:33, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete Hoax, and not a very clever or funny one. Edison (talk) 03:46, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - I like how ancient people could measure "pi" seconds. Very inventive and whimsically humorous. LonelyBeacon (talk) 05:08, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect as a misspelling of skosh. The wiktionary article or List_of_English_words_of_Japanese_origin#Other are good targets.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 17:54, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete or redirect to List_of_English_words_of_Japanese_origin or wiktionary as Fabrictramp suggested. Although it's fun humor. Fg2 (talk) 03:26, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
