Hand and Wrist Institute

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I have looked through the sources and I see nothing to indicate notability. The UK Huffington Post source only mentions this institute in one sentence. This article was created by a sockpuppet User:LAHealthVol, which in itself raises concerns. I am One of Many (talk) 01:42, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

 * It is policy and common sense (to help prevent this sort of thing in the future) is to speedy delete this article along with all the others in the sock case.--I am One of Many (talk) 19:25, 14 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete Run-of-the-mill, one-doctor practice. I found nothing but press releases at Google News Archive. I also searched under the name of the physician, since the website of the practice makes quite extraordinary claims for him, but I could not confirm any of them. (The extraordinary claims are not in the article so this turns out to be irrelevant, but I checked because if true they could have made him notable). --MelanieN (talk) 02:14, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete to the extent the doctor is notable, there's an article about him, and notability is not inherited. The practice is not notable. -- Scray (talk) 03:15, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
