Law of Attraction[edit]

I have removed a section that you wrote on the Law of Attraction article as it was written in non-standard encyclopedic language. I have saved a copy of the section at User:GofG/loa. I would advise that you rewrite it and reinclude it, while discussing on the LoA talk page, or it will remain gone. GofG ||| Talk 19:59, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]


I respectfully disagree. If style is the issue, there is no reason to remove it. If you want to recommend stylistic changes that is one thing, but do not just delete the entire thing!

Please sign your comments. Style is a part of the issue, the main issue that I have with it is that it would seem that its only purpose is to provide instructions on how to get the Law of Attraction to work for a user; this is not information that should be included in an encyclopedia, especially when the existence of the Law of Attraction is still in question. I suppose the problem is that, a: it has no references and makes claims that require references, b: it is written as though at least some aspects of the Law of Attraction are certainly true, and c: it is written like a cross between an article and an instruction manual.

Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by adding your personal analysis or synthesis into articles, as you did to Law of Attraction, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Dppowell (talk) 02:48, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
