Contrast shower

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Finding few sources on it, and what I am finding isn't very relevant. There's no mentions of it (in quotes) on Google News, and Google Scholar has either trivial mentions that may or may not be relevant, or obviously irrelevant mentions (e.g. "in contrast, shower praise on..."). Not sure this meets the WP:GNG. As it stands, the article seems to be either based on some sort of marketing material or original research. Suspect that trying to get an article from the trivial coverage this has would amount to a violation of WP:SYNTH. 86.** IP (talk) 22:43, 23 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Probable Keep I'm getting a lot of book hits in message therapy and sports training books. I have some doubt whetehr the article can be expanded beyond simply defining the term, however. Mangoe (talk) 23:18, 23 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Yea, that's what I was finding - lots of little mentions, nothing that goes into more than a sentence or two. I think it fails the "substantial coverage" part of the WP:GNG. 86.** IP (talk) 11:46, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep, enough total sum coverage in reliable secondary sources independent of the subject. — Cirt (talk) 05:05, 2 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
