[edit] Where does the analysis come from?

If it's your own work, then it's "original research", which is unsuitable for Wikipedia. If it's from another reference, then that reference needs to be cited. Loganberry (Talk) 22:30, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Since no reference has been provided (to the specific analysis; WD is not sufficient as a reference) I've added the appropriate cleanup tag. Analysis like this on Wikipedia must be referenced properly, or it will have to be removed from the article.

To clarify that: the bits that can be gleaned directly from WD itself (eg much of the "Crisis" section) are okay, and need only minor cleaning up. However, jargon-filled bits such as the "Personality Component Analysis" are not okay, and need to be referenced or deleted. Loganberry (Talk) 12:50, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Okay, two months have passed without any attempt to justify the existence of the "Personality Component Analysis", so I'm going to delete it; I think it's a fairly clear-cut case of original research, and therefore unacceptable for Wikipedia. The parts that can be salvaged (mostly from the "Crisis" section) I'll incorporate into the article proper. Loganberry (Talk) 00:24, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
