Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Scott M. Rodell

Personally as a student of Scott Rodell Laoshi I'd like to suggest the following.

Laoshi Scott Rodell is a highly repected teacher in America, Russia, Estonia and now in Australia as well. I think it is highly worthwhile having this page available. Not only is it informative yet a valuable resourse to Scott Rodell' current and possible students. Scott Rodell is also one of the foremost authorities of historcal chinese swordmanship and the moderator more than one forum on such matters.

We live in an age where authentic teachers are very difficult to find, but so called "masters" are many and easy to find. We also live in a time when authentic Taijiquan is diing out and ever more difficult to find. It is highly necessary to be able to check ones lineage and be taught in the tradition of historical context. In so doing future generations have legacy of pure Taijiquan not diluted by the plethora of misconceptions of what stands as the essence of this art.

So in saying this, I urge you to keep this information available for others to gain from an authentic teacher.

With kind regards, Tashi James
