Notability[edit]

I have added proof that it exists and is notable - through references and external links. Still needs a lot of work but I believe it meets minimum quality requirements and shouldn't be deleted--Dakinijones (talk) 08:25, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Having problems with fixing citation links... not familiar enough with the markup... I'll see if I can get myself up to speed ASAP but meanwhile if anyone wanted to help with fixing them it'd be much appreciated --Dakinijones (talk) 18:48, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ahh!... added {reflist} and my citation problems have been resolved ;-) Dakinijones (talk) 11:10, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for starting this article, Dakinijones. I never did start it because there was surprisingly little to go on, though multiple sources referring to it. I am wondering about the year 1980 concerning the founding of the Zen Peacemakers. I think 1980 was when he founded the Zen Community of New York, but not the Zen Peacemaker's Circle (which was formally established in 1996, I believe). I wonder if you would agree to making this clarification? (Mind meal (talk) 19:56, 29 June 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Glad you asked... cos I was planning to ask you about that! It confused the hell out of me because on the Peacemakers web page that's how they describe it... but then the start date of the organisation appears to be 1996. I get the impression that Peacemaker Zen transcends many boundaries... possibly even including time :-) So I was hoping you might check out their web page if you had the time spare and see if you can decipher it better than me. My tradition isn't Zen so I'd barely even heard of most of the personalities (thought it would be a good way of not getting too POV on my first created page) BTW, feel free to edit as you see appropriate - I really don't want to own it.

Updates[edit]

Zen Peacemakers updated their website on November 1st, 2017. Their page "About Us" ^[1] offers an overview of the Organization's history, focusing on Bernie Glassman's story. I'm not sure of the best way to introduce this information (I'm new here!) but it looks like there's plenty of updates that can be done. Is it better to make a new section titled "Timeline," plugging in information from the Zen Peacemaker Website, or to modify existing sections?
