Talk:Avatar Course

Verification, Neutrality, & Weight
Since these tags were recently added to the article, an explanation a discussion would be most welcome.

Regarding POV and undue weight, my opinion is that this is a natural result of the only information with sources of any credibility being for facts and reporting not favorable or neutral to the subject. Every effort has been made to find and include positive information and sources (or contrary citations regarding negative reporting), but sadly, there appear to be few if any outside of blatant marketing materials. If the article was weighted to be "balanced" in terms of pros and cons, it would have to be unduly weighted in favor of citations that don't pass standards muster or the elimination of citations that do down to less than a stub. In other words, it is what it is, until and unless there is more credible information to be added.

As for verification, I can find only one sentence tagged. I agree, but that hardly justified the additional tag on the page itself. If there are other issues, again, I would ask they be enumerated clearly.

In absence of clarification and discussion, I will move to remove both the offending sentence and the warning templates. But I'd prefer not to do such unilaterally as it may be perceived as some personal bias.

Avatar Course article
Despite the somewhat convincing analysis, the arguments that Avatar should not be considered a cult should be reconsidered because of Wikipedia's policy about No Original Research (WP:NOR). Newatlascamels (talk) 17:03, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

Avatar Course - "Cult-like"
Whether or not the Avatar Course is a cult isn't really an issue to be settled on its Wikipedia page. However, many of the citations used in this article describe Avatar as being cult-like. To whitewash the controversy is to do a disservice to anyone who comes to Wikipedia for facts. CapnPhantasm (talk) 16:33, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
