Can someone cite a source for his death date listed here, 1969? I've also seen his death year given as 1971, and I don't know which is right. Google isn't much help. Thank you. Moncrief 22:21, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
Muldoon was one of the first proponents of astral projection, he is notable. There are various sceptical books such as Susan Blackmore "Beyond The Body", (1983) that has a chapter on Muldoon. The article has been on Wikipedia for years, it should not be deleted, it just needs significant work, with reliable sources added. HealthyGirl ( talk) 03:24, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
Information on Muldoon is found in Conscious Mind, Sleeping Brain: Perspectives on Lucid Dreaming, By Jayne Gackenbach, Stephen LaBerge. HealthyGirl ( talk) 03:28, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
Hi @ Edward321: (cc Amatulic and HealthyGirl) I've just completed a complete rewrite of this article and respectfully request that you withdrawal your AfD request for it due to the fact that his person more than meets Wikipedia:Notability guidelines. I also know that this person is not very well liked by members of the Church of Scientology, but that should not be a factor in this discussion I believe. Thank you Picomtn ( talk) 14:58, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
Hi @ Edward321: (cc Arxiloxos GabeIglesia Checkingfax Doug Weller HealthyGirl) Thank you for both your prompt response and kind comments, they are most appreciated. And yes, you can withdrawal this articles nomination as per the guidelines outlined at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion#Procedure for non-administrator close (nominator withdrawal).
I must confess my puzzlement to your statement I'd never heard of a nominator being able to withdraw an AfD nomination as the evidence shows you are a very prolific deleter of WP content and nominator for deletion of many articles, which suggests this is a subject you’re an expert on, but without knowing this most basic of policies could suggest to some an ulterior motive for your actions—which I’m not suggesting, only questioning.
Also concerning to me was the deletion on your talk page (which is most certainly your right) of the substantive comments I made to you in an effort to help you, which basically pointed out to you that the WP process for the deletion of an article is the absolute last option to take, never the first, and that cooperation should always be ones first priority here. Thanks. Picomtn ( talk) 13:10, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
