Note: I was the primary author of the Alice Bailey article on Wikipedia. When I left, I brought the best portions of it here (or rather what the article use to be before non-experts took over) The portions I brought here were already substantially different than the rapidly altering and unstable version on Wikipedia. I've done major revisions, reworking, and condensing on the Citizendium version so that the material reflects Baily's main themes together with that of her more reputable critics. When I last looked, the Wikipedia version was being turned into an unbalanced article on race and politics, which are significant but proportionately minor threads in Alice Bailey's writings.

Just FYI--my observation is that articles which contain more quotes than substance, or significant quote amounts often come under scrutiny. I'm pretty sure that's what happened to the article on Mien Kampf (it's redlinked now.) --Robert W King 18:34, 11 October 2007 (CDT)

Robert, thanks for your observation. I've followed your implicit suggestion and radically reduced the number of quotations and made the whole article much tighter. James Davis 10:51, 12 October 2007 (CDT)
