Multiple contradictions within the deprogramming movement[edit]

Current status: DELETED

Appears to be a list of unverified--and probably unverifiable--statements. In effect, this is an opinion piece. It's an intriguing one, interesting opinions are put, but it's not--with this title and this wording--an encyclopedia article. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 16:16, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Delete - Ed Poor surpasses himself in posting provocative POV. Charles Matthews 16:19, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Delete or perhaps keep as an obvious example of what shouldn't be in Wikipedia. --jpgordon ∇∆∇∆ 22:38, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Delete as inherrently POV. Nothing here worth merging with deprogramming. DaveTheRed 23:01, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Delete Interesting POV --Neigel von Teighen 23:10, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Delete. Hi, Ed. I think the first point is the best... What's an NRM? Norman Rockwell Museum? Natural Resource Management? Non-traditional Religious Movement? Hmm... what's that Wiccan internet thingy I've been hearing about... NRM... I was close. Oh, by the way: original research, personal essay, cannot be made NPOV.

Delete. Original research, strong POV, no sources, editing errors, etc. I'm disappointed to see a long-time editor producing material like this. -Willmcw 00:07, Mar 25, 2005 (UTC)
Delete without merging. I too am ashamed to see this editor continuing to create multiple "straw man" articles of this sort. -- Antaeus Feldspar 23:17, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

The consensus is to delete, and I have no objection. I'll cut and paste to User:Ed Poor/cults. -- Uncle Ed (talk) 15:34, Mar 28, 2005 (UTC)
