[edit] Edward Yazbak

No potential to become encyopedic. The guy isn't notable. His names as reported in the article is brings up about a 10th of the number of google hits my lectures rack up an when you consider that the artilce strongly suggests his activities are mostly webased this is significant. See also wikipedia is not a soapbox.Geni 23:23, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• strong keep: As a prominent advocate for vaccine safety, the article on Dr. Yazbak should be kept. His works are routinely cited by other advocates. His courage in standing up to the political power of the medical establishment also makes him noteworthy as a whistleblower. Ombudsman 00:43, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. While there were only 810 hits on Google when I put in Yazbak and autism, the quality of the citations was generally pretty good, IMO. I think people who read his views may want some information on him. That is what an encyclopedia is good for. DS1953 01:11, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
