Comment 1[edit]

Made history consistent with other wikipages. Baby Dove 06:07, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You call it vandalism, but the chats in these pages are repeating the same as in WPP's book, word by word in some cases. Maybe Rick Ross is not such a respectable guy and he copies other's researches. Regartds, Baby Dove 16:00, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

1. Read what you wrote: You did't say RR copied WPP (which is true), you said WPP based his info on RR as it is said on his webpage. This is a complete made up lie which uses chat on a blog (apparantly Wpp's webpage) to back it up. I don't know what you tried to do there but using a blog to support it is out of the question.

If you are not satisfied with bloggers, tell them not to spoil your idea on WPP. The RR site predates WPP with information on AH & RB. And you should notice that I did not put it back, because I do not like this blogsipping on anybody. But it is still to see who copied who. Regards, Baby Dove 23:45, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rick Ross wouldn't personally know anything about Horn or anyone else, he picked it up from different articles and WPP's "Gurdjieff Journal". Aeuio 00:40, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure I follow the line of discussion above, in regards to this article. But I do see a number of statements in the article without sources, and a number of references that don't belong in this article, i.e. explanations of who "x" is, when "x" already has their own WP page. There are sources available, so I will work on supplying those where appropriate, as well as cleaning up inappropriate references. Xmarc999 (talk) 23:56, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia articles with topics of unclear importance[edit]

I have tagged this article for notability. See general notability guidelines here [1] and specific notability guidelines for people here [2] for explanation. Note there is a significant backlog of articles for review.--Moon Rising 04:15, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion[edit]

Since this page is quoted in the Fourth Way article, and in the Fellowship of Friends article, it is relevant that the merits of this Fourth Way teacher are shown here. Regards, Baby Dove 01:47, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the speedy tag as it didn't meet the criterion cited, but I'm not sure what the man is exactly (hence the clarify tag), a businessman? academic? journalist? Couldn't decide which bio-stub template to use. - Zeibura^(talk) 07:54, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think he's closest to a philosopher, and there are stubs for that. Though he shares similarities with Jiddu Krishnamurti or Thomas Merton, and I don't see a ready stub for them either. Xmarc999 (talk) 23:57, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
