The result was delete. There seemed to be some support building for userfication, but then the article's primary author chimed in to request deletion. If anybody else wants to work on it in their userspace, let me know on my talk page and I'll happily userfy it for you. Sarcasticidealist (talk) 03:47, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I still fail to see how this article asserts notability. I originally nom'd it for CSD but that was probably a little over the top - this seems better. I know the policies and what makes someone notable, but I still do not understand why this person is notable at all. If you are going to vote keep, could you at least point out where it asserts itself? Thanks. αѕєηιηє t/c 10:51, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

i know of the site health thru understanding and am familiar with what it provides to people. it is my contention that this is a very notable venture that is much needed by the people who use it. for the members who participate on a site such as this, it can mean the difference between having and not having the inner strength necessary for the challenges faced by the people there. in a world that is so full of self centredness i believe that it should be spoken of widely when an individual takes it upon themself to provide such a necessary platform for people facing challenges such as theirs. it is a totally selfless act and should be commended not considered for deletion.

this leads me to the subject of equal rights now. we are living in a violent and judgemental world today. we are much better than we were years ago and will get better in time. but that can only happen when we have open communication and information. i truly believe that much of the prejudice and judgement people feel and express comes from ignorance and lack of knowledge. by deleting this communication it will set ourselves backwards. why delete something so positive??????

i consider what robert has done to be extremely notable and commendable.

Comment:Please understand that we are not making a judgement on the cause here. We are making a judgement on whether it has reached a degree of notability that it belongs in an encyclopaedia. A lot of good people and things are not in Wikipedia and a lot of bad people and things are. Notability is defined objectively by coverage by things like independent reputable sources so that is what we have to look at. --DanielRigal (talk) 16:29, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with roseyone! We need more young people with his drive to be role models for our youth and society in general. We need more people in this world reaching out to make a difference in our lives. What would be served by deletion?
