The article is explicitly autobiographical and promotional in character, and the overall tone of the article remains unchanged, in serving to promote an individual, their activities, and their publications or websites.

Verifiable, reliable, and independent sources are lacking. Meph talk 12:14, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Everything Famousdog said, and then some. Get it out of here. --MelanieN (talk) 18:36, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
 * P.S. Don't worry, Cruithneach; a deletion discussion normally lasts a week, so you have until July 2 to find the independent reliable sources the article needs. --MelanieN (talk) 18:45, 25 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete All the supplied sources that I can access provide very weak support. The one possible strong source is this Language Pattern Bible book, but that appears to me a non-notable book by a non-notable author. Google searches I've done on Brooks don't bring up anything substantial. Generally the article feels nothing more than a promotional vehicle.—A bit iffy (talk) 19:07, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:N Is the article creator 'Stephen Brooks' or someone connected to this person? The article reads like total self-promotion as if the creator is WP:SPAMing a particular hypnotherapist with the help of wikipedia. --Artene50 (talk) 05:34, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Promotional and many facts are not sourced. Fails WP:GNG.  →TSU tp* 10:59, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
