[edit] Legal nurse consultant

Non-notable profession; basicaly veiled advertising for the firm that sells expensive training. See discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Legal Nurse Investigator. Marc Shepherd 18:08, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Keep and re-write. Well it seems as if it's written in vain. However, a Google test shows quite a bit of hits for this profession, so it appears to be notable. A re-write will probably fix up this article. --  Nishkid64  ^Talk  18:17, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

• Rewrite and NPOV. The external links could probably use particular scrutiny after looking at the other AfDs you posted. --Wafulz 18:51, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Needs serious re-write but that is not a reason for deletion. In the meantime, it probably should have a {{POV}} or something similar. Agent 86 19:07, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
• Strong delete without prejudice, per nominator. The concept may be notable, but this is crypto-spam. - Smerdis of Tlön 19:44, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
• Absolutely do not delete This is a legitimate nursing specialty regardless of the spammy source for the article. It is as legitimate as the other articles on nursing specialties such as pedes or nurse anaesthetist. THB02:44, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
• Absolutely do not deleteThis a real profession that has a fair amount of searches per month. Some of the sites listed are 100% SPAM and should not get a link. The ALNC and NALNC are the two main organizations according to all of my research. The NALNC is the only real organization, the others are spam presented by their owners. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:|]] ([[User talk:|talk]] • contribs). \User's sole contribution is this comment.
• Strong Keep as I quietly raise my hand as a legal nurse consultant - I've worked for myself full-time since 2002. The article does need a rewrite and there are definite differences between AALNC and NACLNC - http://www.nalnc.org. The Legal Nurse website, owned by the Vickie Milazzo Institutes, is a for-profit enterprise - one woman's company with claims of earning $150 per hour as a legal nurse, which are entirely false and mistleading. (I recognize some of the article's text - it's from the company that holds conferences and advertises false and misleading statements. NALNC - http://www.nalnc.org - is the only real organization. The profession, however, is a serious subspecialty of nursing, just like critical care nursing and the other subspecialties. I don't need Wikipedia validation to continue with my work because you guys don't pay me. However, the nursing articles are atrocious. Deleting articles about recognized nursing specialties with which lay editors aren't familiar doesn't help the encyclopedia as a whole. Baseball,Baby! ^{balls•strikes} 09:44, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
