Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Tolly Burkan (2nd nomination)

My name is Tolly Burkan. If you Google my name, you will see I have worked hard for 38 years to show that firewalking is not paranormal and that anyone can do it. There are literally thousands of references that confirm this. I taught many celebrities, including Tony Robbins. Every mention of me is cited and referenced. However, there is a group of people who dislike me and are attempting to remove my name wherever it appears in Wikipedia. Their disruptive editing and vandalism is on just three pages: Tony Robbins, Tolly Burkan, and Firewalking. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Robbins, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolly_Burkan, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewalking) Now, after being in Wikipedia for maybe 10 years, I am being considered for deletion on the basis I am not "notable." I have been written about in over 70 books, including these books by mainstream publishers: HEAT by Bill Streever Little, Brown and Company 2013, THE FOUR SPIRITUAL LAWS OF PROSPERITY by Edwene Gaines Rodale Books 2005, FIREWALKING AND RELIGIOUS HEALING by Loring M. Danforth, Ph.D. Princeton University Press 1989, HARPER'S ENCYCLOPEDIA OF MYSTICAL AND PARANORMAL EXPERIENCE by Rosemary Ellen Guiley Harper Collins 1994, HEALING STATES by Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D. and Stanley Krippner, Ph.D. Simon & Schuster 1987, TOO MUCH IS NOT ENOUGH by Orson Bean Lyle Stuart 1988, DAVE BARRY'S GREATEST HITS by Dave Barry Ballantine Books 1988, FIREWALK: THE PSYCHOLOGY OF PHYSICAL IMMUNITY by Jonathan Sternfield Berkshire House 1992, SECRETS OF SUPERSTAR SPEAKERS by Lilly Walters McGraw-Hill 2000, MIND GAMES by Michael Powell Barnes & Noble 2004, LIFESTYLES OF THE RICH IN SPIRIT by Alan Cohen Hay House 1996, SWITCHED-ON LIVING by Jerry V. Teplitz, J.D., Ph.D.Hampton Roads Publishing 1994, DANCING WITH THE FIRE by Michael Sky Bear & Company 1989. If any editor takes the time to research me on Amazon.com, you can see all the other books that speak about me and my work. Over the years, people have expanded descriptions of my work in Wikipedia, and have put all the needed citations and references on the entries. There are hundreds of major newspapers have have featured me over the years, including: The Wall Street Journal  April 18, 1989 "If Past-Life Trauma Has Got You Down, Firewalk May Help"  by Christopher J. Chipello Front Page,  Los Angeles Times  April 11, 1984 "Firewalking: The Curious Hotfoot It to a New Fad" by Beth Ann Krier Front Page, The Washington Post   June 6, 1984 "Daring Feet: A Hot Fad" Section B, Page 6, The New York Times May 31, 1980 "‘Day of Child’ Benefit Is Set for Tomorrow" by Dudley Clendinen Page 9, Chicago Tribune December 1, 1986 "Hot Feat: No Burning Desire to Walk on Fire" by Paul Galloway Section 5, Page 1, Philadelphia Inquirer May 1, 2002 "A Guru’s Guide to Firewalking and Forgiving" by Art Carey Section D, Page 1, Prevention Magazine January, 2003 "If You Can Walk on Fire" by Andrew Weil, M.D. Page 100. I'm not sure how much documentation I need to provide, but if you want more, I ac give you hundreds, if not thousands, of newspapers, magazines and journals that cite my work. No matter how many references have been put on Wikipedia to make everything up to your standards, one man and his associates keep deleting valid facts and all necessary references. Is there any way to stop this? Thank you very much for looking into this. (tolly@tollyburkan.com) Also, where can I see how Wikipedia responds? Can you send me an email?73.12.138.134 (talk) 14:59, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
