Talk:Indigenous People's Technology and Education Center

Missionary Organization
I believe it's fair to mention the Christian missionary nature of the organization, and a critical fact to leave out of the article. Please let me know if anyone objects to my characterization in the article. Vicenarian (T · C) 21:40, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Under the additional projects section, the article currently seems to imply that the dental system is only used with the Huaorani, while I-TEC's website mentions use in Romania, Chad, Patagonia, and Burma. Is this a primary source, as it is the organization's own webpage, or secondary, as they are quotes from dentists using the chairs? I'm not sure whether or not this particular aspect clears the notability criterion for inclusion, but the current article seems to be a tad misleading. Any suggestions on cleanup?

 * It's a primary source, as the material itself is coming from the organization's website. I think it's okay to add that the chair is used elsewhere and to cite the website to back it, since the existence of the program is already backed up by secondary sources. I would say something like "I-TEC states that they have used the chair in..." to indicate that it's a statement from a primary source. Vicenarian  (T · C) 15:30, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
 * See what I did with the I-See sentence, for instance. Remain neutral in tone, but indicate in the text that your information comes from a primary source. Once you have reliable secondary sources, you can be a little loser in asserting fact. This is how I interpret WP:V and WP:OR, the two primary guiding policies on sources.

Can someone find out how the marketing for the I-Fly Maverick is going? 99.236.221.124 (talk) 05:26, 24 January 2010 (UTC)

Reads like an advertisement
Forgive me for not knowing proper wiki-etiquette, but this reads like marketing material written by the organization.

I think it’s also worth noting that the term ‘Christ-followers’ is a pretty unusual one, and I suspect it’s a term internally favored by the organization. Perhaps it would be better to change that to Christians to make the article easier for people to understand? 74.124.137.25 (talk) 13:31, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
