Untitled[edit]

I have recently learned that the facts regarding Samu Sunim's Dharma transmission published in Prebish and my own book are in error. I corrected this in the body of the article. James Ishmael Ford —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.215.51.119 (talk) 14:52, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If this truly is James Ishmael Ford then you know that such material needs referencing. So perhaps you can write about this on an official website of yours or release a 2nd edition of the book. Wikipedia thrives on referenced material, which doesn't always get the story straight. But that is also what safeguards us from people anonymously stating they are an author rewriting history.

Dear Mind Meal, I'm a great admirer of your work here at Wikipedia. Perhaps you can correct this. Please note my reference to this correction published at my blog: http://monkeymindonline.blogspot.com/2008/09/zen-master-samu-sunim.html I will be adding an errata page for this and some more minor corrections at Wisdom Publications, but this may take a month or so...
