 * You can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~ . The article was deleted because
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources that it meets the notability guidelines.
 * It made spammy claims without independent verifiable sources to verify them, eg
 * Paranormalknowledge.com is widely considered to be a giant leap for the paranormal community.
 * Paranormalknowledge.com shows great interest in supporting the Save the Children Foundation both financially and politically through the use of their latest projects, Project PLUS and Project Forum.
 * I hope this clarifies jimfbleak (talk) 07:45, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

 * You can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~.
 * None of the problems have been addressed - the claim of support from 60 organisations is referenced only to your website, and the link itself is dead. You need independent verifiable sources to support this claim. Incidentally, paranormal organisations are not very independent, use national newspapers, journals etc.
 * It is up to you to give evidence that it meets the notability guidelines, not for me to find it
 * I looked at the other two articles. I agree that there is a case for deleting them, but they are not such obvious cases as your article. I might take another look at them when I have more time
 * I have not blocked this article from being recreated yet because you appear to be acting in good faith (apart from removing tags, which I attribute to inexperience, but you need to seriously address the issues that are being raised jimfbleak (talk) 07:09, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
