Another boilerplate phobia article with no actual clinical sources. GHits are amplified by use as a reference to social prejudice and by a band name. Mangoe ( talk) 14:17, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

Although I acknowledge there are some -phobia articles on fringe pillars, I have noticed that dementophobia is not merely discussed in lists but has gone further by gaining traction through use in permanently recorded media and additionally conveying meaning to the term that correlates with the definition provided here.
