Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Oil pulling (2nd nomination)
someone can demonstrate that it can be expanded using reliable sources enough to justify a stand alone article, otherwise seems like duplication currently. Atm, there is little content on oil pulling which has been easily merged... but there is room to expand a stand alone article if someone is willing to do the work. Problem is reliable sources. To discuss the effects of oil pulling on health, we would need  sources. Only 7 sources on PubMed with search "oil pulling"... most appear to be primary sources. However, there are ~170 results for search terms like "essential oil mouthwash", not sure if it would be OR to link these to the oil pulling article if those articles do not explicitly use the term. I had a look for sources on oil pulling in google books too, and the first few pages were Alt med industry type books which were not reliable sources so I gave up. Might be worth also pointing out that oil pulling could be significantly expanded using non MEDRS sources, from a historical and cultural point of view, as long as such sources were not used to suggest that these essential oil mouthwashes have health effects, or to contradict what the more reliable scientific sources are saying
