This article seems to exist mainly to support claims against helmet use on the bicycle helmets page. The article is referenced but the references are cycling helmet references, not references about 'Safety in numbers' as a concept. That makes it original research.

Neither original research or shortness are criteria for speedy deletions - this should be PRODed or AfD instead. -- Tivedshambo (talk) 07:25, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

  • This article was originally created as a psychology-related stub (ref. the [2005-08-25T18:51:30] version). The material related to bicycling was added later, and was verifiable as of the [2006-07-18T07:14:07] version. While material added in the [2006-08-01T17:52:00] version lacks citations and may indeed be original research, the [2006-08-03T17:09:22] version added tags which request that citations be supplied for that material. --Wiley 13:07, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
