It seems you have mistaken for another editor, namely User:Kim Dent-Brown. He reverted a number of anonymous edits that did not meet the wikipedia guidelines due to not having sources cited. Upon review of those reversions, I agree with his decision. My opinion is this: Wicca is an initiate only mystery tradition, or more precisely a priesthood, of witchcraft, where one can trace their lineage back to the New Forest lines. Initiation is the only way into the Wicca, and is carried out by a Wicca coven, initiation into a coven requires formal training after which initiation and a system of degrees is followed.

Wicca follows a strong set of doctrines, one who takes on the name 'Wicca' is also taking on these doctrines as well as practices and beliefs of Wicca, the title of 'Wicca' implies more than that you are a member of the Wicca, but also that you have worked long and hard to earn that title.--Vidkun 00:36, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

It looks like we agree on a lot that has to do with Wicca. Except not all Wiccans are witches.

Hi there - I have replied to your post to me on the talk page for the Wicca article. I've quoted there extensively from the article as it exists and as you'll see we already explicitly state that "Some Eclectic Wiccans neither perform magic nor identify as witches." But please have a look at what I've written and push the discussion further on. PS: Don't forget to sign your posts with ~~~~ so that your signature appears.
