Hope Rehab center has been mentioned in several articles in global media sources, the above editor has vandalized the page frequently to remove these sources from the main page. Please see the references below, this in line with wikipedia's policy and should have not been edited down in such a way or marked for deletion. Paul Garrigan is an addictions expert who has written two books on addiction, more specifically addiction treatment in Thailand. Here are a list of references citing hope rehab: • dylanedit (talk] — Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|undated comment added 11:22, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

Hope rehab center mentioned in the West Australian newspaper 18th May 2014: Image removed by Dennis Brown &#124; 2¢ &#124; WER  as it was a copyright violation.

Keep!Article shows good refs, deletionists strike again. Fed up with everything remotely new getting canned. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.98.29.157 (talk) 14:56, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

Why do you argue for deletion after YOU deleted the West Australian article? Nay lad. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dylanedit (talk • contribs) 11:27, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete The closest thing to WP:SIGCOV in an WP:RS was the Guardian piece, which is part of their blog but is written by a staff member so would be fine to establish notability. The rest, well, doesn't.  It is just incidental mentions of people who went to that facility.   If you could find more like the Guardian piece where they are talking about the Center itself as the main topic, then you would be fine, but I didn't see it.  Dennis Brown &#124; 2¢ &#124;  WER  21:15, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment Keep! In realtion to the above argument, the user has clearly not checked the links, there is NO Guardian article. There is TWO telegraph articles mentioning the center and up until this morning there was a photograph of an article mentioning it in the west australian newspaper.  Two mentions in a global media source, plus a mention 18th May 2014 West Australian News.  The founder Simon Mott is the brother of the famous punk artist Toby Mott who produced artwork for de la soul and many more famous acts of the 1980's  Toby Mott Clearly states his brother Simon Mott is a therapist in the evening standard article - whom is the founder of hope rehab.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.98.29.157 (talk) 03:43, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I modified your vote, since you only get one vote per AFD. And there is a Guardian article, I linked it for cripes sake.  And I have to ask... Mr. 88.98.29.157, are you the same person as Dylanedit?  You haven't participated outside of this one area and my Spidey sense is going off.  Dennis Brown &#124; 2¢ &#124;  WER  14:03, 26 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete – per Dennis Brown. More information on the center itself covered by reliable sources would be needed to save this. United States Man (talk) 05:35, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep Enough articles to cover guidelines set by wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dylanedit (talk • contribs) 05:45, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - Coverage from just a single source won't cut it. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 09:27, 26 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep sufficient sources stated. Should definitely keep. Meets guidelines. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.217.72.67 (talk) 08:30, 28 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep sufficient resources already provided to support the noteworthiness of this facility, and this article is relevant because 1) it is fast becoming one of the most popular addiction rehabs in Thailand 2) celebrities have gone to this rehab for addiction treatment 3.) The manager of this rehab (Simon Mott) is regularly mentioned in news articles for his work helping people break free of addiction — Preceding unsigned comment added by 183.89.7.105 (talk) 08:52, 28 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep no wikipedia guideline has been breached. This article provides accurate information to help addicts seeking treatment in Thailand. Wikipedia should let it serve its purpose and not limit addicts from finding new options to recover. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rynka (talk • contribs) 10:35, 28 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep There are surely more than enough resources to support the continuation of this article. With references to celebrities past and present like Rob Ford in The Telegraph and the fact that Simon Mott was specifically asked to comment on this and other news items, shows his and Hope Rehabs creditworthiness of helping people with addiction problems. In my humble opinion, and after reading some of the comments above, the fact that this article has been recommended for deletion, seems to show that someone is maliciously trying to ruin the chances of having what can only be described as a truly valuable and worthwhile addition to Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.180.11.211 (talk) 12:56, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep this article should be kept. The facility is run but the highly respected drug rehabilitation counsellor Simon Mott. His program's for rehabilitation are proven effective. His client base and success rate is extensive. This article provides addicts seeking help with substantial information to lead them towards a life saving recovery program.

 * Keep I see no reason this article should be up for deletion. It has been mentioned in the media, one article of which I have read the others which can be verified if you take the time to look. I personally know someone who has been a client there and the reason they attended Simon Mott's rehab centre was because of a news article in the Telegraph. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paollo66 (talk • contribs) 14:27, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
