The article cites no reliable sources and there is no evidence that this is an actual medical or psychological condition. Srleffler ( talk) 21:40, 18 October 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Merge into heliophobia which is much the same thing. If we don't like that page either then we should merge into the more general page of photophobia which is a very real thing and probably the best place for reader to end up. Andrew ( talk) 16:24, 20 October 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. Mentioned in this book. Might be a bit more notable than some of those other random phobias listed recently. NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 02:23, 21 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

  • Delete it's an uncited stub. It may be a thing, but the article doesn't meet GNG. I would say a possible redirect on the phrase to photophobia, which is a broader article that covers much of these attributes. EBY ( talk) 21:09, 2 November 2014 (UTC) reply
