Thanks very much for starting the article on Vairotsana -- However -- I worry that | |||
the text may not be licensed in a way that allows us to use it verbatim on Misplaced Pages (if indeed it was copied from the linked source -- I confess I didn't | |||
look at it *that* closely. ) In any event, I would be happy to work with you to | |||
expand the article, as Tibetan Buddhism (in particular Dzogchen) is an area I | |||
want to contribute more to. Feel free to leave me a note on my talk page, and welcome. | |||

The article ] has been ]  because of the following concern: | |||
While these are related, they are not the same. ] is a Western practice which have the same goals as ] and may not use the same techniques. For example, some sex magic requires emission; Vajrayana practices prohibit it. In fact, it might be better to say they practiced ], as the ] article is primarily about Hindu tantra. In any case, sex magic is a Western term coined significantly after the time of Padmasambhava. The use of it represents an editorial opinion. Can you cite a source that says they practiced sex magic? A reliable academic one? If not, ] says it can't be said. If there is someone who thinks they are the same, you could report on that and cite it, but it would have to be clear whose opinion it was describing. | |||

First, I should note that the banner was only added to the ] article because the Tibetan Buddhism and Buddhism banners had not yet had assessment parameters in them. Those banners now do have assessment parameters, and I am in the process of removing the Religion banners from inappropriate articles. However, I do note that it the Singing Bowl is significant in the ] religion as well, and I am less certain if the adherents of or editors dealing with that faith would want to be grouped into the Tibetan Buddhism project. It is also a matter I cannot personally respond to, being a more-or-less orthodox ] whose major other areas of knowledge are the older Indo-European and Semitic religions. The intentions of the ] are to provide "Project support" (including at least now assessment and peer review on request, occasionally copyediting and other activities as we have members and time, hopefully other things as well later) to all those articles which do not fall within the scope of any existing projects, including those articles which deal in subjects that cross religious lines, like ], ], ], and so on. Also, we hope, eventually, to be able to set up work groups similar to ] and ] to work with articles relating to specific religions which do not yet have that degree of focused attention. Personally, I would be more than happy to welcome any new member or participant, particularly anyone who could bring any existing knowledge or experience regarding any of those religions which lack project support. I'm not sure if that answers your question, though. If it doesn't, please feel free to leave a follow-up message on the ] page, or contact me directly.

Hey B9, | |||
Thanks for working to clean up the ] article, especially with the language concerning references to God. I want to warn you, however, to be cautious with your linking. Many of the blue links now go to disambig pages, and are only peripherally related to Weil's project or life, e.g. ], ], ], ], ], ], ] etc. | |||
If you don't mind, I would like to go through and weed out some of them - in special cases, interwiki linking a term to wiktionary - to bring it more in line with other biographical articles of philosophers. Let me know, perhaps we can collaborate? I've been real busy as of late, but I'm hoping to get some constructive editing done somewhere on Wiki before February rolls around. Thanks, and keep up the good work. - ] 17:38, 12 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
== Usage of Wikilinks. == | |||
Just so you know, I see that you've added quite a few wikilinks to some pages. For the ] disambiguation page, this is not generally appropriate- disambiguation pages want to make it very clear the senses of the word that can be linked to and then get you to the "real" article. Extra wikilinks are considered distracting there. It's over at ]. | |||
As for other pages, I've noticed that you've added them at a similar rate. I think that this is a bit overkill- we don't want to have a gigantic sea of blue being the article, but rather to highlight only ''relevant'' wikilinks. Plus, once you've linked a word, you typically don't need to link it again immediately afterward. As an example from your edit to the Akhasic Records article, look at | |||
:"A ] ] named ] was reported to need only the first name of anyone to ] the Akasha and describe their life history. Another ] ] ..." | |||
Does Chinese really need to be highlighted twice, or even once? Is it that relevant? Same with "gentleman" and "access," as I highly doubt anyone would be looking those up. Sujujin and possibly "seer" are the only ones that need linking here, in my opinion at least. I'd recommend checking out ] for some more on that. ] 17:59, 15 January 2007 (UTC) | |||

Please clean up the overlinking you did to ] or I will simply revert it to the last non-overlinked version. Several users have pointed out the appropriate section in the Manual of Style.

Nice to see that you're trying to add something about historical perceptions of cicadas. However, you're going about it the wrong way. What you do is a minimal paraphrase of external sources.

In response to your comments on my talk page: | |||
:*Idiosyncratic: While I thought that word was clear enough, I will attempt to clarify further. Your recent edits use words and concepts that I have never heard used in reference to poi, Maori culture, etc, and seem to reflect what poi means ''to you'' rather than what it might mean to other people. | |||
:*''"Where is it set in stone that Misplaced Pages is just to be an introduction to a subject?"'' This is Misplaced Pages. Nothing is set in stone. There are, however, ], such as "Make your article accessible and understandable for as many readers as possible. Assume readers are reading the article to learn. It is possible the reader knows nothing about the subject: the article needs to fully explain the subject," "Use clear, precise and accurate terms." And lots more. I recommend you look at the linked help text. | |||
:*''"It is my considered opinion that this article requires some scholarly-sexing-up"'' It is my considered opinion that even if this were so, your edits do not provide it. | |||
:*''"The mind processes and forges new neural connectivity when it is confused which is why Zen Masters use koans amongst other methods. Are you familiar with NLP, hypnotherapy, trance~forms and meditation"'' I feel confident in saying that whatever a good Misplaced Pages article should be, it should not be a koan or be designed to deliberately confuse its reader in order to evoke some altered mental state. If that is your goal, I say again, your edits are idiosyncratic. NLP? Don't start with me on NLP. | |||
:*''"Juggling is a study in the resolution of bodymind confusion into an 'Artful Grace'."'' Well gosh, you'd better get started fixing the ] article, because it doesn't say anything like that. ] 16:48, 26 February 2007 (UTC) | |||

Hi there. I noticed that you placed some quotes on the Tantra article. Since you seem familiar with both authors, do you remember where you read them? Basically the Tantra article is a "start" class article right now, since it has so many unsourced statements. To get it beyond this level, we will need to resolve the issues with sources. References also really enhance an article, in that they give a casual reader, such as myself, access to more resources. If you really can't dig up the sources and wish to put the material back in, can you place a {{tl|fact}} tag next to it, to alert other editors that those statements need a source? In that way, someone else might be able to extend the article. Thanks.] (]) 14:55, 20 June 2007 (UTC) | |||
Thanks for your reply on my talk page. I noticed that you mentioned print sources. Web sources are perfectly acceptable also. The criteria for sources is "reliability". Of course, there are going to be differing opinions about reliability. In my view, regarding sources for tantra, we want to make sure that we are not using sources that "just made things up". I recognize the inherent problems in reliability in regards to a tradition that is as fluid and varied as Tantra. The article really needs to represent all different viewpoints without giving undue weight to any possible fringe varieties of tantra. Thanks for bringing up the quotes. To me, the material was not clear as to whether or not they were direct quotes or a synthesis of things said by the sources. Take care.] (]) 15:27, 20 June 2007 (UTC) | |||

You wrote "I have secured by gracious Serendipity a complete digital copy of the Tattvasamgraha in romanized Sanskrit and in addition it is grammatically parsed and intent to make it available in Wikisource or in Wikibooks with an English translation. If anybody would like to work with me on this project contact me directly. B9 hummingbird hovering (talk • contribs) 12:52, 12 October 2009 (UTC)". I might really be interested. noychoH (talk) 15:34, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
- @NoychoH: Please not that this user has been blocked for nearly ten years, and last posted anything five years ago. It's unlikely they are still monitoring anything here. Beeblebrox (talk) 00:18, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Beeblebrox:. Thanks for your remark, yet I was aware of that while writing on their user talk page. It is not completely impossible however, so there is a chance I will get an answer one day, and I am REALLY interested in the topic, that's why I took a chance. When you buy a national lottery ticket it is also unlikely that you win, yet some people are desperate to buy. I am patient to wait. noychoH (talk) 17:26, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Tapihritsa
The article Tapihritsa has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
This article has no notability. It's been like that for seven years. An attempt to make a reference into a citation gets turned into a note by a "master" editor. Bots have done more work on this article in the last three years, than anybody else. Instead of beating it, it's time to bury this dead horse.
While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages 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 page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Pibal373 (talk) 20:23, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
