User:Morton devonshire/9/11 Conspiracy Theory Phenomena Project

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Intro

This is a Sandbox/Project page to draft an article describing the cultural and political phenomena of 9/11 conspiracy theories. It is intended as a project page, and not as a definitive treatise on the issue, and as such, won't be complete until I submit it as an article. I encourage editors to make suggestions on the layout and content of this proposed article. Morton devonshire 05:50, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

What the Article Should Be

  • An article describing what OTHERS have said about the cultural phenomena
  • What are the motivations for the beliefs (no original research, must be as other mainstream commentators have described the motivations)
    • Example 1: Belief of pretext for war in the Middle East
  • What is the genesis of the "Truth Movement"
  • perfect foundation for this

What the Article Should Not Be

  • A debunking of 9/11 conspiracy theories
  • Synthesis of facts in order to advocate a particular point of view
  • A collector of original research
