Other than the unreliable source currently used as reference 2, I cannot find support for this being a notable phenomenon in studies of the paranormal.
The article further appears to conflate the idea of a dream transferring to another person with the psychoanalytical concept of Transference in relation to dreaming.
I don't think that there is anything salvagable here. Fences&Windows 02:07, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge this, Oneironautics#Within_the_dream_of_another and Shared dreaming into the most common research term for the subject, Dream telepathy (currently a redirect to this article). My comments from a similar AfD are still revelant: "notable both in old and new mainstream fiction and as a parapsychological field of study, with plenty of coverage by prominent researchers and authors - Montague Ullman, Stanley Krippner, Stephen LaBerge, Keith Hearne, Patricia Garfield and so on. WP:Potential very much applies." K2709 (talk) 20:13, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
