Talk:Engkanto

````engkanto was based on Filipino folklore and no links available when we search it last June 19 2008. Page is awfully worded upon documenting it for the main reason that it is a group knowledge and experience regarding the subject matter. The references thats been added and provided on this page was relevant and usefull. ````Although some documents or enterpretation is not clear and still need discussion. The best and convinient way is just add a diffrent interpretation or research and not editing the first document to provide different scope of knowledge and research on the subject matter. —Preceding unsigned comment added by L2ipp3l2 (talk • contribs) 10:41, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia articles have to be based on reliable sources WP:RS. Your original article had no sources and so has been re-written by several editors to include sources. The original article was also not written in good English and so required a complete re-write. I tried to include as mcuh of the original content as I could where I could find reliable sources. This page is now the consensus of several editors so please don't blank again, but rather continue discussion here. Dpmuk (talk) 11:46, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

I accept that this page is awfully worded and needs a lot of work but believe the subject is one for wikipedia and there is just enough information contained to warrant keeping. Dpmuk (talk) 12:39, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Will work on tiding in the next hour or so. Dpmuk (talk) 12:45, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Only a violation if it's a page I created myself - which this isn't. Dpmuk (talk) 12:54, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Reference here: The Engkanto Belief: An Essay in Interpretation Francisco Demetrio Asian Folklore Studies, Vol. 28, No. 1 (1969), pp. 77-90

And here: Ideas of Power in the Philippines: Amulets and Sacrifice Axel Borchgrevink Cultural Dynamics, 2003

I believe this is enough to warrant keeping page - it seems a genuine topic. Dpmuk (talk) 12:54, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

OK, not the next hour or so but now edited. Dpmuk (talk) 01:01, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
