I know I've been falling behind in adding some of these newer sources to the article, I've got a lot on my plate at the moment but I'll try to catch up with it all soon. Cirt (talk) 22:20, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Ongoing Decline
The attendance figures as documented in April, and as not yet published here for May, seem to indicate a major decline in this project compared to the initial rush of enthusiasm in February and March.
When will it be appropriate, as a NPOV encyclopedia, to call attention to this decline? Ema Zee (talk) 22:46, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- When it is discussed in a secondary WP:RS/WP:V source. Cirt (talk) 22:48, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- It could be that the decline is related to the media interest, not the protestors' enthusiasm per se. Either way, no, calling attention to such an observation (or attempted interpretation) would be original research. We can only reproduce it if reported by a reliable source.

- The project does seem to be shifting towards more decentralized flash raids, organized on local forums, IRC channels, and offline. This is in contrast to the early worldwide planning at sites like partyvan, enturb, SA, ED, 4chan, and so forth. Reliable sources (but not WP:RS "reliable") indicate that small flash raids are going on almost every weekend in major cities. Honestly though, I doubt the mainstream media will pick up on this. Large media is good at covering "the story", or "the big event", but is much less capable of connecting the dots between a lot of small things happening at once. We will have to wait a couple years for sociologists to write papers about this before this encyclopedia article can be written properly. Z00r (talk) 07:53, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] ROFLCon Panel
Anonymous held a panel at ROFLCon, focused on Project Chanology. The last half of the panel brought up 4chan. A potential source for information. ROFLCon 5/30/2008 - "Anonymous". The same video is hosted in segments on youtube.[1] Perhaps this can be used for a perspective on Chanology from within Anonymous.--Cast (talk) 20:27, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- Heard about this, haven't seen it mentioned yet in a WP:RS/WP:V secondary source. Cirt (talk) 20:28, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- Right, of course I don't want to jump the gun. I should specify that I think we ought to keep an eye on it, but wasn't aware if any of the regular editors for this article knew of it. I'll trust that you'll update the article with useful third-party information about this source when it becomes available.--Cast (talk) 20:38, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Operation Sea Arrrgh
source http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/06/08/2008-06-08_disturban_the_peace_in_style.html
"anti-Scientology vigilante group "Anonymous," which has been attacking the church and Cruise on YouTube, is stepping up its antics, promising to launch "Operation: Sea Arrrgh," an attack on Scientology's Sea Organization, the elite arm of the church that operates a ship called MV Freewinds.
The protesters, who claim they stay under the radar to protect themselves from church backlash, are peppering media outlets with promises they'll accost the Sea Organization all summer long, all pirate-style, in their latest attempt to expose the underbelly of the celebrity religion. "
