As I already said elsewhere [1]
unlike e.g. endocrinology, which is a vast and ramified field in which work hundreds of thousands of researchers and specialist practitioners, "chasmology" is a neologism, coined by this guy Walusinski, not in the OED and producing ten (count 'em -- ten!) hits on Gscholar [2] -- one of which is a typo. There's no recognized "science of yawning", and absolutely nothing in this article that wouldn't be completely at home in the yawning article. EEng 20:38, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
