 * I've had a look at the material you added, and its sources. Unfortunately, one source is closed to the public, so it's unverifiable, and the other is primary, i.e. it's by someone describing their own experiences and making serious allegations which now can't be verified. I think therefore we'd best wait until reliable secondary sources (by independent writers, assessing the primary evidence) become available. Sorry about that, but attention is now strongly on the topic and it's certain that more reliably-sourced material will soon emerge. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 10:46, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Happy editing! Chiswick Chap (talk) 10:43, 14 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Just to let you know, I've issued a warning to the other editor about edit-warring, editing while not logged in, and conflict of interest on the Singh article, so I hope the fuss will die down. Until it does, could you also be supremely careful to behave correctly so that if admin intervention should become necessary (COI being the most likely, unfortunately), none of the mud will stick to you.

Aloha Chiswick Chap,

Other than undoing the most recent deletion which I thought I could correctly do as I was restoring an edit that an experienced editor (you) had done.

I will not made any other edits (can I consult you if there are further deletions).

I honestly thought that the deletions would stop after you educated us all on the COI and other issues. So I was surprised that one day later your entry had been deleted.

I understand I have much to learn. And I intend to use the skills I learned to contribute elsewhere on other topics now that I am finally learning to contribute more properly.

The last two nights 3HO’s website upon which the AOB report link in the citations has been hacked twice and repaired once. I was hoping to add a second citation with another web location for the report but I have not done it yet. A Russian escort website keeps being substituted for the proper link. It appears that Someone really does not like the report being public as this is the only part of the 3HO website that is being attacked and hacked.

The website with the AOB report on it has been going down frequently as you first noticed in my entry on the Sexual Abuse by Yoga Gurus Wikipedia page.

I apologize for the errors I have made in editing.

I appreciate that you issued a warning. As you may have noticed in the Talk section this editing war issue predates even the recent sexual abuse allegations and AOB report.

I appreciate the feedback and am open to more as I want to learn to participate properly.

Just from your help and feedback I have already learn Wikipedia skills I did not have 2 weeks ago.

And I will consult if I see more deletions ( instead of editing or undoing first)

Thanks Al Reford
