[edit] Moy
Greetings. The changes I made at the Moy article were in aid of the policy of citing sources and the rules of reporting provenance, not POV. It isn't saying he didn't study them, but it is saying that he is the only source for the claim we have now. Unless there is a citation that you can provide from outside of Moy's school that says he studied those arts, and one that can be independently checked, we have to put in the qualifier that Moy himself was the source for the statement. So you see, we have a pretty rigorous threshold when it comes to publishing information. You can say things, but it has to be clear where they come from. The same for other things like that. We can say that Moy's school is growing in popularity, but to impute that it was founded because of Moy's altruism and compassion is stuff for an advertisement, not an encyclopaedia article. If you look at the bio articles for the other T'ai Chi teachers, you'll see that they are pretty dry when it comes to stuff like that. Remember, it says at the bottom of the Editing screen: If you do not want your writing to be edited mercilessly and redistributed at will, do not submit it. I hope this helps.
