Book defending the organization[edit]

Two recent additions [1][2] to the article were both reverted. The editor adding the text has been blocked for violation of user name policies ("GWP truth" seems to present the editor as a representative of the former organization). In any case, here's discussion of the change.

The edits both read like advertisements for the book, a clear violation of our policies. Additionally, the edits were not clear about the source of the book. Mary Miller is not simply a "former employee" of the group, she's the founder, a co-director and spokesperson.

The book is not a reliable source, as it appears to have been published by a publisher with virtually no reliable history of fact checking. Their website lists all of three authors, including Miller.

After all of this, however, it appears there is a new organization, Family Systems Research Group, picking up where the dissolved GWP left off, apparently selling the same plastic cards but presumably not incorporated in Maine. I'll try to find sources to add this new chapter. - SummerPhD (talk) 17:36, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've just stumbled upon a page giving links to numerous articles about the lawsuit [3] and a page on James Randi's site giving their new name [4]. For the moment, I'll add the new name. I'll get back to the rest of it (and their numerous other names) at a later date. - SummerPhD (talk) 00:00, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
