Even if the organisation this chap founded is notable (which is questionable in itself), I certainly don't think it's well-known or substantial enough to make its founder notable. Basalisk ^{inspect damage}⁄_berate 19:14, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I got your point but Mr. Wood is a notable person in his field and has really helped a number of people with mental disorder, they have a group called 'Mentality' where people comes to share how they were cured or bettered, so there might be something about him to deserve rightful place.

Delete. This is certainly a good cause, but this is not a good reason to include it on Wikipedia where only notability criteria really matter.--McSly (talk) 02:16, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This individual is not notable nor is the biographical information well referenced. A notable American is likely to have been referenced in sources in the USA, so I think having the primary reference to be the Bangkok Times suspect. Even in that article, it simple quotes the subject of the article, and is not a researched piece of journalism. In following the site purportedly founded by Mr. Wood, (www.mentalhealthsocial.com) the resulting site indicates that this domain name was recently acquired by PsychCentral. No doubt this individual is an advocate for mental health and a sufferer of an illness, though neither of those in themselves meet the tests of WP:N or WP:V and do to it's poor references, it fails WP:RS as well.
