Added tag as unreferenced. Pastordavid 18:33, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

The link is a reference. Thanatosimii 18:41, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

My bigger concern was the issue of notability and verifiability. There is no reference in this article that this group actually (1) exists and (2) is notable. Such evidence would come from 3rd party sources - not the groups own home page. Anyone can create a group, and then link to a site they created. This does not mean that they are notable enough for an entry. From WP:V: "The burden of evidence lies with the editor who adds or restores material. Any material that is challenged or likely to be challenged needs a reliable source, which should be cited in the article. If an article topic has no reliable, third-party sources, Wikipedia should not have an article on it." And further: "Anyone can create a website or pay to have a book published, then claim to be an expert in a certain field. For that reason, self-published books, personal websites, and blogs are largely not acceptable as sources." Pastordavid

which would be more of a problem if this page was more than a stub. Thanatosimii 17:41, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Actually stubs have to establish notability as well. Nil Einne 13:51, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

You have recently made two edits on three talk pages to pages which have absolutly no relation to one another whatsoever except that I have recently made comments on them, and then you proceed to contradict me. Apologies if I'm wrong, but since the chance of that happening on a site of 1.5 million articles is one in several trillion, I had better not find that you're edit-stalking me.

I share the same concerns as Pastordavid brought up in January. I don't see anything in the listed references that establishes that the movement exists and is important of it's own right. The listed book could easily be entirely self promotional and the first two references are entirely redundant. There seems to be a promotional campaign going on here to write articles on the movement in other languages as well. - Taxman ^Talk 03:53, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
