Talk:Reclaiming

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oh my. This is an advertisement, not an article. Anyone else want to rewrite it, or should I give it a go. In this state, the article barely deserves to exist. --NoMoon 10:27, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Could be

Yeah - it's a bit too "true believer"/"Jonestown" for me too. But this is San Francisco - one has to let the pot smoke clear before assessing much. I've cleaned it up a bit, making it less Madison Avenue. I have to say, I've been disturbed by some of the self-promotion of authors and teachers going on in Reclaiming generally, but it's certainly no worse than Pat Robertson and the 700 Club crowd.

[edit] Wikipedia:Naming conventions (verbs)

Per the above, I've sent Reclaim here. - brenneman(t)(c) 06:35, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

I've trimmed the (now second) section pretty severly, but this article is still poor. Please don't just give me a {{sofixit}} bite, either. How about some suggestions? - brenneman(t)(c) 06:48, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

If you don't want a sofixit "bite," then maybe you should describe what is so "poor" about it, so readers have something to suggest toward. Also, I am moving the NPOV tage down, as the top section never had any objections to it levelled on those grounds. Jacqui 14:47, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] split?

This is two articles on one page. Any objection to spliting them? Name opinions for the resulting articles? Tedernst | talk 17:45, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

I agree, the second section could be called Reclaiming tradition or Reclaiming (paganism) Kmusser 15:01, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Please split, and turn this into a disambiguation. I ran across this as I was working on an article that probably should be combined with the first part of this: Reappropriation. - Jmabel | Talk 06:16, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm just going to take the bull by the horns and do this. It's at Reclaiming (neopaganism). - Jmabel | Talk 04:22, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
Thanks, looks good. Kmusser 05:33, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New refactoring issue

Possible issues on what should be where among:

How should we refactor, how should we disambiguate? Discussion is at Talk:Reappropriation. - Jmabel | Talk 04:05, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Porch monkey"

I haven't seen Clerks II. Given that the writer/director is white, I don't see how it can be a reclaiming of the term "Porch monkey". If someone can clarify, great; otherwise, this should be removed. - Jmabel | Talk 18:04, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
