Here are some tasks you can do:

[edit] To do and research launch points

Many articles on WotW mention their ties to Scott Lively and the book The Pink Swastika. Research these ties and cite, if valid. Save research for new article on Lively and to expand article on book.
- The article titled Watchmen on the Walls conference begins in Lynnwood linked below describes Lively as a co-founder of WotW, a California attorney and president of Defend the Family (link.) That website links to Abiding Truth (link,) which resolves to the same website.

References link WotW with Christian Reconstructionism. Cite and give particulars.

The sponsoring church in Riga is the evangelical New Generation Church under pastor Alexey Ledyaev. Supposedly, New Generation Church has more than 200 sattelite churches throughout Eastern Europe, Israel, Argentina and the United States. Find cites.

Ledyaev is supposed to be a close friend to Pat Robertson and was allegedly invited to attend the 2006 National Prayer Breakfast hosted by President George Bush. Find cites.

Are there ties between WotW and and the murder of Satender Singh in July 2007? Serveral sources make this claim; can it be supported?

In June, 2004, three Russian speaking immigrants savagely beat a man in Seattle, Washington during the city's gay pride celebration. The assailants were all members of an evangelical church of Russian immigrants; at their trials, they claimed a religious duty to be intolerant of gay people (info.) Was this attacked linked to WotW?

Seattle papers have printed that Kirkland pastor Ken Hutcherson was a promoter of WotW and has spoken at their 2007-10-20 meeting in Lynnwood. Cite, and update article on Hutcherson to reflect this tie.

~~Does the organization have an English website and if so, provide a link.~~ Possibly found with site Abiding Truth.

Are there any Reconstructionist and/or Dominionist groups who think that WotW is extreme even by their own standards? If so, who and why?

Thank you for restarting this page. I had wanted to work on the old page before it got fast deleted. I was going to petition for it to be undeleted but there wasn't much useful content there anyways. henrymrx (talk) 03:26, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

No problem. I found a cached version of the old article on Google. It was definitely NPOV and was properly deleted. TechBear 03:29, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
