Talk:Foresight Institute

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


This article is mostly taken from the Foresight Institute's "About Us" web page. Wikipedia articles shouldn't really be mouthpieces for companies. Does this organization actually do anything other than organize conferences? Tempshill 21:45, 18 Nov 2003 (UTC)


Currently, the link to the FI's website does not work.

I think this page should be kept, although in a slightly more sophisticated way.

[edit] Advertisment

I have attempted to rewrite the page and have trimmed out things like the mission statement-like list and the doublespeak comment about the internet. By no means is this page perfect, but I think it no longer reads like an advertisment. Falcon 22:51, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] followup

This may be part of a walled garden of pages, including Chris Phoenix & Mike Treder. The COI and NPOV of all three is suspect, and their are 3rd party sources for their being a concealed POV-pushing advocacy group.

I intend to document a little more thoroughly, and rewrite the article for the center as NPOV.

I agree with that assessment and endorse a full review of the article contents. -Will Beback · · 07:27, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
