Juniper article & links
In addition to my comments on its talk page, I would suggest that the Juniper Buddhist Training article needs more evidence that its topic is notable – mainly references showing that Juniper has been recognized as a significant organization by objective sources outside of its own lineage or circle. Currently it looks like most of the reference support is either material published by Juniper itself or books that don't seem to reference the foundation by name. Not to discourage you, but the way links to the Juniper article and website are spreading through WP is likely to be interpreted as spam and end in deletion of most or all of the content. / ninly ( talk ) 04:43, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the notes. I have addressed those you made on the talk page. I feel the references contain a number of independent sources. Each of the Buddhist centers cited are unaffiliated, independent centers. Some of the references refer to Segyu Rinpoche, who works only for Juniper Foundation. Juniper has established a fairly significant following and thus I feel is an important contributor in the modern Buddhist movement.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
