It was removed and came back. So I followed it up. It is an interesting link although I haven't read it all. The question in my mind is how relevant is it to have this link, which is a detailed discussion of the link between Dewey and Alexander (which concludes that there was none), when there is no actual mention of Dewey in the Wiki entry.
It seems to me that if you, who ever you are, want to mention the Dewey/Alexander connection you need to summarise it in a section on the [F. Matthias Alexander] page (with maybe a mention on the Dewey page as well), and then add the external link - otherwise the link has no context and doesn't really fit into the page as it stands. I've removed the link again for now.
At some point the link to
was also added and deleted. Seems to me it might help to balance the piece to have this in. Mahaabaala 17:28, 11 Dec 2003 (UTC)

"It was removed and came back." -- This statement leaves it a mystery _who_ removed it. The author of the above?
As long as the main article says Dewey's philosophy has a connection to the Alexander Technique, this link -- which expresses a contrary view -- will be relevant.

- People with nothing to hide sign their names! I note that the link has reappeared and disappeared (no it's not me doing it, I was just trying to make sense of it). Personally I'd rather see the anon user who keeps adding it summarise the argument and put something in the main body of the article. Mahaabaala 09:52, 18 Dec 2003 (UTC)
It's not kosha to edit out what people have said on a talk page - have your say, but leave what others have said so we all know who saying what! Mahaabaala 17:17, 22 Dec 2003 (UTC)
