I am the User:AmirYousefi whom some of you complain of! There is nothing wrong with the subject and as such! The only thing is that the whole issue with editing and arranging my article according to it is totally confusing! With some help I am sure it will work out! I appreciate any help in advance!AmirYousefi 08:50, 19 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've read your page, and while I agree that the issue needs to be brought to the public's attention, Wikipedia is unfortunately not the right place for this. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. What you should do is save the source text of your page before it is deleted, find a free web hosting service, and post your page there. I understand how you might want to use a more high-ranking website such as Wikipedia instead of having your page languish on Angelfire or Geocities among myriads of Pokemon fan pages, but that might not be the best strategy - Wikipedia policy clearly states that Wikipedia is not a free webspace provider, and most of the readership here on the English Wikipedia is not in Sweden, anyway. What I advise you to do is to write letters to the editor of your local newspaper, call talk radio shows, maybe find a patients association and get involved.

Thank you for the information from the last person above and sorry for having used the Wikipedia. It has simply been because of my lack of knowledge in this regard. I have already written in two different blogs in Sweden with the same headlines (In Swedish & English). My purpose by using Wikipedia has been to have a broader public internationally to inform them on issue as Sweden has created some other sorts of reputation on the world scale under many years and as you also mentioned "the issue needs to be brought to the public's attention." I appreciate any information on how this issue can be brought publicly through Wikipedia. Kind regards, Amir YousefiAmirYousefi 20:08, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
