Hello Thomas. I have removed the section on Kinetic Awareness because it was neither about Elaine Summers nor about her involvement in Kinetic Awareness. It used the role of Summers in Kinetic Awareness to promote Kinetic Awareness itself. And while WP:COATRACK itself has no official status within Wikipedia, the points raised in it are consistent with many policies and guidelines. The section closely matched the first example of WP:COATRACK: "Joe Q. Random is a journalist. One day he wrote an article about Conspiracy Theory X. The main points of Conspiracy Theory X are as follows ... followed by page after page about the conspiracy theory." The first paragraph had no problems, it simply spoke of Summers' involvement with Kinetic Awareness. The "coatracking" was what followed: an elaborate explanation of the five phases of Kinetic Awareness, without any explanation of Summers' role in this, followed by an advert regarding the beneficial aspects of Kinetic Awareness. That is irrelevant to Elaine Summers and violates Wikipedia:Spam ("advertisements masquerading as articles"). If you can rewrite the section, you can be bold and do so. But please be reminded that the article should be about Elaine Summers, not about Kinetic Awareness. For future reference, the {{hangon}} tag is not the appropriate template for what you had in mind. {{Hangon}} is used to contest a nomination for speedy deletion. If you wish to indicate that the article is undergoing a major edit, you may want to use any of the templates in Wikipedia:Template messages/Maintenance#Articles undergoing major edits.

Proposed deletion of Kinetic Awareness
[edit]The article Kinetic Awareness has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Lacks coverage in independent high-quality sources
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}

Dear Alex,
It took me a long time to :
A- get this notice
B- get my identity back on Wikipedia
I will look again at the concerns for improvements.
The group of people who actively practice Kinetic Awareness may seem small, but as the originator of this work, Elaine Summers, has taught her work for ca. 50+ years, the number of people who use it is larger than it may seem.
Even if the numbers currently may appear small, the historical evidence of this work is stored in a.o. Lincoln Center of the Arts, New York and has been written about. Anyway, I will set out to work on it. Thomas Körtvélyessy (talk) 12:47, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
