This should have been rejected immediately

Suicide has nothing to do with Wikipedia, and there's little to suggest that it ever would more than speculation. This is instruction creep and totally fails WP:NOT. WP:CIVIL and WP:NPA cover this and it should have been stopped there. What about dealing with murderers, pedophiles, and terrorists? It's more of just what Wikipedia is not in the business of doing.--h i s ^{s p a c e} _{r e s e a r c h} 02:36, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, we don't deal with it, that's why we send them to the nearest hotline. What's the problem? Wrad (talk) 00:49, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
