With thanks to recent edits/effort. And specifically about the newly improved Stoned Apes paragraph - may I please cite the original, definitive 'better source'?  "Concerning Terence McKenna's Stoned Apes" by B.P. Akers (http://realitysandwich.com/89329/terence_mckennas_stoned_apes/). Addressing a concern stated above, about source (S Woolfe) being "blog of a guy who works for a "libertarian-leaning magazine" in London ... Is he a member of the scientific community, or an authority on anthropology?":  
 The author of the original article is a phd scientist.  Accredited in both biology and anthropology.  With peer reviewed research, published in journals of scientific societies - fields including ethnobotany and mycology. Note (as reflects) his research as cited in WP entries e.g. Psilocybe hispanica; Rock Art of the Iberian Mediterranean Basin; and Villar del Humo.  Since its Mar 28, 2011 publication, info from "Concerning Terence McKenna's Stoned Apes" - has been copied/pasted by many, like Mr Woolfe, without due citation. 
 As for this WP entry on Terence McKenna - my experience with it goes back to 2006. In view of that, and certain remarks above, may I note "Concerning ..." specifically cites WP's "entry for TM (which seemingly reflects ongoing tampering to keep a properly celebratory, uncritical tone)."  I find that echoed above by vzaak (Jan 26) WP "has historically had problems with editors aiming to promote pseudoscience or lessen its criticism, which eventually lead to the arbitration case on pseudoscience."  I question whether WP policy and practice is functionally sufficient to ensure WP purposes - against an 'inspired' determination  of oppositional counter-purpose (TM hagiography). Whether appropriate edits here can stand against 'edit war' and subterfuge that's prevailed at this entry for years - is unclear considering, e.g.: "WP editors wish to minimize Terence's significance, so I think it's good not to let the bastards get away with this" (posted June 2, 2013, by ‘foxfire’ i.e. WP editor Peter Meyer: http://mckennaforum.com/forum/mckenna-forum-group1/terence-mckenna-forum-forum24/stoned-ape-theory-mckenna-shlain-hakim-bey-thread3.3/)   
 Again thanks to vzaak and others (TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom). With concern even doubts for this entry; may be a lost cause. Past conscientious edits have been easy targets for zapping - unable to stand or endure against a doggedly determined proprietary interest of McKenna 'admirers' (believers, followers, what are they exactly?), acting as WP editors, in service to a charismatic icon's PR.  Time will tell?    akersbp
