Wikipedia talk:Requests for mediation/Transcendental Meditation
The statment "Undue weight in terms of the amount of criticism and controversy; also, undue weight regarding critical studies" doesn't meet my wishes for fairness or neutrality, for me it is stateed as if they are already the case, like a conclusion has already been reached.
I don't know the etiquite of editing a Request for Meditation, hence I have left the origonal text as it is, and placed what for me would feel a more fair and balanced statement under the aditional topics.
TimidGuy if you or whomever wrote the request, would please reword or make the statement more neutral, I would appreciate it. Sethie 17:51, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- Hi, Sethie. Someone pointed me to this instruction: "If you feel that an issue has been incorrectly stated, restate it in your section with a simple note at the end of the line such as "(Restatement of second issue by User:Example)." "
- When it says "your section," it means the "Additional issues to be mediated" section. So what you did was correct, though you may want to append the parenthetic phrase given in the example.
- Being new to this, it was my mistake to list two of the original issues in the "Additional issues" section. I should have listed all of the ones I inserted under "Issues to be mediated." TimidGuy 20:19, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- The article should present a fair amount of criticism and controversy around a controversial group. However, sourced critical information is excluded on suspect grounds.--Dseer 05:14, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Removing myself from the mediation
[edit]About 10 days ago I lost all interest in debating anything with the TM pages and so just wanted to clearly state that I am removing myself from the mediation.
I thank Stevertigo for trying to help out.
Thank you thank you thank you. :)
I do not see myself editing those pages anytime in the near future or participating in any of the disucssions. I'll say more about this when the time is right. Sethie 20:33, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
