The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).
Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.
The phenomenon itself is thoroughly plausible, since many plants in the family that limes belong to contain photosensitizing substances- but I only found one usenet post, which linked to an online article, which referred to a journal article published in 2010. It looks like a one-off descriptive phrase that never caught on. Chuck Entz (talk) 05:19, 4 July 2014 (UTC)

- The scholar hits are all referencing the same article. It seems Chuck's analysis is correct. - -sche (discuss) 21:18, 17 July 2015 (UTC)

- I didn't rfv this one because this quote seems to point to there being actual usage, though Google Books and Google Groups don't show it. Chuck Entz (talk) 16:18, 4 July 2014 (UTC)
- But even that quote is just a mention. — Ungoliant (falai) 18:46, 4 July 2014 (UTC)

- New England Journal of Medicine [11] Margarita Photodermatitis - 1993 (yes this is a somewhat different term; seeing if it should be added or left alone, if these are being deleted; there's also the alternate meaning for "lime disease" being phytophotodermatitis from the fruit 'lime' (shown in some of the links above))

- I'm not sure that any of these count. The BBC do sometimes delete web pages so they're definitely not durably archived. The Canadian Dermatology Association citation seems more like a mention because it says "Phytophotodermatitis – also called Mexican beer (or margarita) dermatitis". So... do we have any citations at all that definitely count? I think not. Renard Migrant (talk) 14:38, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
- "Mexican beer dermatitis" is in the title of this scholarly paper without quotation marks, but I cannot access the full article to see how it is used in text. SpinningSpark 20:52, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
- I think the JAMA article counts as one. For a second, there's They’re the compounds in lime that cause what some doctors call “Mexican beer dermatitis” — This comment was unsigned.
- The only two hits I see on Google Scholar are mentions:
- N Shah, A Khachemoune, What is this streaky rash?, in the Journal of the American Academy of Physician Assistants: Also known as “margarita dermatitis” or “lime dermatitis,” phytophotodermatitis is most likely to be seen in bartenders, chefs, and people who regularly handle citrus fruits.
- RR Riahi, PR Cohen, FW Robinson, JM Gray, Dermatology Topics, skinandaging.com: In addition, when lime-associated phytophotodermatitis occurs in the setting of margarita preparation, we respectfully suggest that the condition be referred to as “margarita dermatitis.”
- The second isn't even durably archived. The one Google Books hit (The Green Pharmacy Guide to Healing Foods, 2008: "...which is why some doctors call it Margarita dermatitis") is also a mention. - -sche (discuss) 21:46, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
