Delete Couldn't find in-depth coverage from secondary sources. And that could be because there isn't any. I also sense some self-promotion here because the user who created this immediately added an external link to the website in another article. Spellcast 15:51, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Delete Appears to be a cheap imitation of the real US professional associations in this field, which seem to be American Academy of Sleep Medicine and http://www.sleepresearchsociety.org/.--orlady 17:57, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Delete per all of the above, orlady's comment. --A. B. (talk) 18:06, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete as there are no secondary sources to write an article with. ---J.S (T/C/WRE) 22:12, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Delete Red flags galore: No id of physicians/scientists founders, or indication of existence prior to 6/07 private domain reg, no mention/listings on similar resource listings at sleepfoundation.org, sleepnet, etc., generic articles written by MDs whose only search results bring up nada or free article sites, thin actual content with "abstracts" or "events" sections bringing up framed pages from other websites, or promised benefit from joining the association. If overkill, I apologize -- there is a growing number of legitimate associations dealing with sleep medicine, but this one isn't one of them and likely won't be.

  • Delete per nom., and others.--JayJasper 13:04, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete agreed with Hu12, no reliable sources to assert notability. Carlosguitar 20:54, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
