AfD nomination of Electromagnetic frequency pollution
edit
An editor has nominated Electromagnetic frequency pollution, an article which you have created or worked on, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Electromagnetic frequency pollution and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to address the nominator's concerns but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Jc3s5h (talk) 23:40, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

- Hello Dfenelus1. I stumbled upon the AfD for your article, and had a look around at what it was about. On Jc3s5hs' talk page you said "I created this page on Electromagnetic Frequency Pollution for academic purposes, it is part of a final research project that I'm currently working on." Could you give a bit more information about your 'research'?.
I don't think, personally, that you have all that much hope of the article staying, as it's subject is covered in existing articles ie. Electromagnetic radiation and health. Good luck, but even if your article goes, don't take it too personally, there is still plenty of useful work to be done on Wikipedia. I have been editing since 11 September(3 months) and have been well occupied without creating an article. --220.101.28.25 (talk) 01:43, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
Links
editThe WHO link you gave links to factsheet N°296 "Electromagnetic fields and public health-Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity" which says:
- "The majority of studies indicate that EHS individuals cannot detect EMF exposure any more accurately than non-EHS individuals. Well controlled and conducted double-blind studies have shown that symptoms were not correlated with EMF exposure."
Which does NOT support your article at all.
