Wikipedia page on Ra/Law of One up for deletion

[yossarian]

Yeah I've been thinking about starting those pages. Ultimately the philosophy section in particular would need community input from bring4th, because the philosophy should represent the general philosophy of all those who subscribe to it rather than one man's interpretation of the work.

That'd be great. It'd be wonderful if there were wikipedia pages like you suggest.

I'm sure there would be many here, including myself, who would be glad to pitch in if you or someone else takes the lead. Is it important at all to have had experience writing or editing other wikipedia pages?

Well I don't have much experience writing or editing for Wikipedia. I think the main thing is to think about who the audience is and to avoid putting your personal twists into the material. The big failure of Logos5557 was that he wrote extremely quirky articles and presented his own very strange interpretations as unbiased fact. Instead of explaining what the books said he explained his interpretation of what the books said, including using new definitions and words that were never used in the books. He also tried to convince the reader that the Ra Material is true or valid rather than simply presenting what is there. For instance he would bring in outside images and sources to try and "back up" the Ra Material. This isn't the purpose of wikipedia and is a big reason why the admins ended up deleting the article.

The article needs to be informative rather than persuasive and objective rather than subjective. Anyway now that Logos5557 seems to have given up there may be room now on wikipedia for a proper article.
