Oath of Refuge
This article does not describe a traditional or widespread Buddhist practice, but is the invention of one person; it is unverifiable (all mentions on the web point back to this article) and there is no evidence that anyone actually uses it. This makes it a subject which is too trivial for Wikipedia. The username of the person who created this article is also verifiably linked to that of the stated author of the text, suggesting that this is a vanity project. The introduction to the article also gives the false impression that this is a generally used Buddhist text, which is not the case. RandomCritic 13:28, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
