Medical News Bulletin

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Does not meet WP:GNG or WP:WEB. Randykitty (talk) 10:38, 28 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Secondary sources added; the significance of the published content is its leading role (at least in Canada) in raising awareness of and participation in clinical trials. Typically, only the weak sectors of society end up participating, and the aim here is to show that it's for everyone. Mintz l (talk) 14:37, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment. You have added 2 "secondary" sources. One is to clinicaltrialscanada.com, which according to their website is located at the very same address as the one listed for the Bulletin, strongly suggesting that this is not an independent source. I'm not sure how to describe the second "source", but an in-depth description of this bulletin it is not. If this is website really has a "leading role", surely better references are available. --Randykitty (talk) 14:59, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete - There were quite a few hits on Google News, but all were from this blog, not about it. Can't see how it passes WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 19:07, 29 December 2016 (UTC)


 * delete obvious self-sourced promo. fails GNG per the above. Jytdog (talk) 23:44, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. In addition to the above points, this appears to be an ordinary and run of the mill medical newsletter. Bearian (talk) 19:53, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
