• Oppose. Certainly interesting, but, right now, the article doesn't talk about this. There must be some scientific papers documenting/analysing the phenomenon? J Milburn (talk) 10:01, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
  • It isn't in the article, but would wave cloud be an appropriate page? Chris857 (talk) 13:57, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
