Talk:Alternative Living

Dear Icarus3, I'm new to Wikipedia & have just created the Alternative Living page. I noticed that you've placed the following tags on the top page: (cur) (last) 07:57, 20 March 2006 Icarus3 (adding AfD tag) (cur) (last) 07:56, 20 March 2006 Icarus3 (NPOV tag)

I've read many other pages, not sure what's the benchmark for Neutrality is. For each topic has its believers and doubters, with both sides being equally passionate. In my humble opinion, most importantly is to ensure page creators don't set out to disparage or demean any individuals or their belief systems, but treat all with respect.

The page is new, and a work in progress, still learning the rope here. Would like to hear your advice and input on the code of practice at Wikipedia.

sincerely, WikiSoul


 * This page is not an article. It is basically a long blurb, copied from the web site you link to. It would be better to summarize those ten reasons you refer to, as well as opposing positions. Furthermore, most of these arguments are probably covered in the articles on vegetarianism and related movements. Regards, Burschik 09:15, 20 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Re NPOV: Right now it's actually more about a lack of citing sources for the medical, so I went ahead and removed the NPOV tag. The part I thought was the most iffy is gone now anyway. Another issue that remains is, as Burschik said, that there really isn't anything here that isn't already covered in the other articles. --Icarus 09:37, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Huh, just noticed that I forgot to actually remove the tag last night... That was quite an oversight on my part, sorry about that! --Icarus 18:29, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
