Delete I have absolutely no idea what it is about, not referrable to anything. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 02:50, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Ugh, what a horrible article, but the real issue is that this specific thing doesn't seem to be worth an encyclopedia article -- even if we pretended that the format of a specific (and uncommon) database record was WP:Notable. The important information about the concept is already at Electronic health record. WhatamIdoing (talk) 03:35, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Unfortunately I do (mostly) understand the article. However, the subject is a very specific and (from memory) theoretical way of managing electronic medical records and as such does not currently warrant its own article. If it were to be successfully implemented at multiple healthcare facilities using different software providers (and third-party evidence provided of such), then it might need a separate article. In the meantime it belongs in EHR. (By the way in my working life, EHR are not "uncommon" database records. Rather they are the majority.) Beeswaxcandle (talk) 07:31, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Ah, I meant that the CTR approach was (at least) uncommon, not EHRs. WhatamIdoing (talk) 16:35, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
