Epidermal Radioisotope Therapy

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The article does have issues (a few editors have conceded that) but the procedure itself is sound as a treatment for the condition. While it has issues as a how to guide at the moment, I feel the best option here is to list at afd for community input as see what the community wants to do with the page.

 * Neutral As the AFC reviewer who accepted it I acknowledge that it has faults. Our role is not to review a draft to perfection but to accept it if we believe it has a better than 50% chance of surviving an immediate deletion process. This is that immediate deletion process after a minimally contested speedy deletion. I believe the article is keepable, though requiring improvement. Participants in this discussion should note that the paid nature of the creating editor has been posted correctly at all stages. That status ought not to influence the discussion. I make it a practice not to !vote at discussions where I have accepted the draft, but sometimes comment. I have no feelings either way on this article, and thank the nom for the chance for the community to discuss it and potentially to improve the article. Fiddle   Faddle  06:58, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Neutral The crucial point is notability and coverage in reliable, secondary sources. I'm pretty deletionist, so I will abstain. -- Deep fried okra  ( talk ) 13:15, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Infomercial for the company which makes the products used in this procedures.  -- RoySmith (talk) 13:37, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete We already have an article on Brachytherapy don't redirect or merge as this content is next to useless in terms of reliable sourcing and this is a neologism. PainProf (talk) 21:18, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. "Epidermal Radioisotope Therapy" is not a widely used or accepted terminology, but rather something related to specific treatment by specific company. Also a content fork, the content is covered in Skin_cancer and Brachytherapy. My very best wishes (talk) 17:00, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
