The result was Speedy Keep per WP:SK as the nominator fails to advance a reason to delete. This is like the close of the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Suicide methods (7th nomination) which was also an improper proxy. Every nomination has closed in a clear Keep and so some strong argument is needed for us to reopen this. Warden (talk) 08:46, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Adding for user Roambassador as he feels this article encourages people to commit suicide. Strong Keep per WP:CENSOR, subject is clearly notable. ♥ Solarra ♥ ^{♪ Talk ♪} ߷ _{♀ Contribs ♀}

Keep I'm afraid WP:NOTCENSORED controls here. But for the love of God please remember WP's part of the real world and along with such problems as the grotesquely overdetailed discussion of country-to-country variations in popularity of the various modes of railway-related suicide (subway vs. mainline, sitting on tracks vs. jumping as train approaches -- multiple heading levels being provided lest the reader lose his way in this labyrinth) there's something inhuman about the inclusion of a sentence beginning The automobile lends itself admirably to attempts at self-destruction because... It might be best to omit details on which methods are more or less painful, or likely to succeed. EEng (talk) 07:42, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
