This article is a relisting of article David R. Hawkins which has been deleted 5 times previously and salted. Iconoclast.Horizon (talk) 07:02, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete The article is lacking in claim to notability and barely referenced though with a stack of External Links to articles in what do not look like WP:RS. Without being able to see the name-variant article deleted through AfD in September 2012, this seems unlikely to be a significant improvement on it. I have also tagged the present version as CSD G4.

 * Delete The last version contained the description "disaccredited and closed (1997, 2000)" against the awarder of the PhD (and references for this), but didn't mention Orthomolecular psychiatry. It also contained a longer list of (mostly self-published) books. In neither version do I consider the references (barring the disaccrediting ones) reliable and independent. Fringe stuff can sometimes be notable, but I can't see any signs here. There have been five previous articles with restorations. Peridon (talk) 10:58, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
 * As to G4, to my mind that's a moot point. The essence of the article is the same, but the trappings differ. Peridon (talk) 10:59, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
