PsychoNoetics

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This was deleted once via WP:PROD already. This version is better than the deleted version, but it still looks like it is intended to promote a fringe idea based on religion and pop psychology and dress it up as an actual science. All the sources used are primary. I don't believe this concept meets the bar of being sufficiently notable unto itself. Beeblebrox (talk) 00:15, 29 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete Two sources, both primary and by the same person. Even with only two sources, the article doesn't make clear what information comes from which source.  The article treats the idea as if it is confirmed fact ("PsychoNoetics can also be used for distant healing of a great number of bodily ailments") and reads like a brochure.

 * Delete Per WickedJacob. Come back when other scientists have written about this amazing new field. Coverage in textbooks from respected publishers and inclusion in college curricula would also be convincing. Edison (talk) 19:30, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, promotion for a trademarked, fringe topic. Zero evidence of notability.   Glenfarclas   ( talk ) 08:08, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
