Does anyone know where I could get info for this page? I can't really find anything.--74.138.145.133 02:39, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Don't delete

I think the OP is not talking about the medical condition but about what the German Romantics (poets, philosophers, biologists etc.) called the "Heilige Schauer" or "Holy Shiver". I wonder if we already have a page on it...Nope - so it is free for you to build/write! Immanuel Kant, Johann Gottfried Herder, Friedrich Schiller, Johann Gottlieb Fichte, Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Wilhelm von Humboldt, even Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel all wrote things but you will probably need to read some German. Good luck. (By the way, if you Google it, the first hit where the guy is relating it to only courage in battle and sports...he's wrong. It's more subtle that that. It's about the Sublime).

I don't really know where to begin research.--74.138.145.133 (talk) 01:27, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Then you should do such research before you create the page. I'm putting this up for AfD in a couple days. -Wooty [Woot?] [Spam! Spam! Wonderful spam!] 01:53, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
Perhaps you take this a little too seriously. I thought there was a don't bite the newcomers rule. Some people don't have much common courtesy on wikipedia huh. Just because the page isn't legitimate yet doesn't mean it doesn't have a legitimate purpose.--DatDoo (talk) 02:28, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
(e/c) I have added differentiation of the emotionally triggered cold chill to the physically triggered shivering. I'll stub it but think that AfD is a bit of a severe response to a new user. I'm assuming a good faith (even if perhaps a naive) effort by a new user that should be encouraged in some way rather than so dismissively dismissed. I believe that this entry is valid on its face and would encourage its expansion rather than deletion. hydnjo talk 02:39, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
I guess the reason I made the page was because it was something I was interested in and couldn't get any info on it so I figure if I made a page people would help.--DatDoo (talk) 02:54, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
Well, your request on the RD seems to have drawn some attention! hydnjo talk 02:58, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
