[edit] Kerokan
Microstub, no information, no references. Creator is a banned sockpuppet. Garyseven (talk) 03:12, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

- Keep - regardless of google - the practice of kerokan is a long standing practice by dukuns and other traditional health workers in Java in Indonesia - and it is a classic practice for curing afflcitcions such as a 'masuk angin' which although alien to non javanese - was and possiby still is a culturally bound syndrome - as for whether it was created by jimbo wales or a sock puppet - it is a notable cultural practice which could stand up to WP:N, WP:V and WP:RS without much trouble if the afd doesnt go through SatuSuro 14:46, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

- Delete - Non-notable quack cure - one of many. Can't see what could possibly be added. Perhaps could be mentioned in Dukun or other relevant articles. Davidelit (talk) 02:25, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
- Comment - prepared for merge with dukun - could be a good compromise - as to the the nature of the practice - have taken the issue up at the Indonesian Project noticeboard SatuSuro 02:43, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
