A mildly promotional article, with no evidence of satisfying the notability guidelines. The external links (the nearest there is to any references) are to Jason Diamond's personal web site and to the web site of his business. Nor have I been able to find significant coverage of him in any reliable source. The article strives to try to give an impression of significance, using peacock-wording such as "recognized for his work within the medical community", but giving no source for that statement, nor telling us who recognises his work or in what way. The article also goes on to refer to "his role as a television personality", but that appears to mean that he once appeared on a television show, and even that is unsourced, and is not mentioned on either of his web sites. Note: Two earlier versions of this page have been deleted by PROD. A request was made to history merge the current version with an AfC page that it was based on, and for some reason the administrator who did the history merge also restored the history of those two earlier versions, and also a deleted attack page about a totally different person of the same name. I have removed the attack page, but left the other two articles about the same Jason Diamond as the present article. However, anyone checking the history of the article may find it helpful to know that the present article dates from 23:20, 2 July 2013‎, the earlier history being the other articles.)

  • Delete - completely fails applicable notability requirements. Also rife with unsourced unencyclopedic trivia, and written like a promo piece. --bonadea contributions talk 08:35, 30 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Since AfD is about topic and not content, whatever promo can be easily removed.. the Dr. keeps good records of all of his media mentions as seen here. Notability guidelines allow for specialists in a field who are recognized by popular media as experts. -- GreenC 05:32, 3 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
