thread_title: Unreferenced

message: The quote in the article from Thomas Braden states that "Another agent became an editor of Encounter," but I have never heard this before. The quote is also from 1967 and I believe that more recent research has pretty much shown that those working at the various magazines had no idea that their funding was coming from the CIA, .
Unless someone has more recent information to the contrary, I was suggest that that part of Braden's quote be removed from the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.167.100.82 (talk) 16:05, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: What you have done is made this article incomprehensible.  I suggest you revert all of your edits and make your case here on the talk page for the changes you want to make.  At this point, you have done more harm than good. ---The Old JacobiteThe '45 12:52, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Yesterday, I removed many citations to The Unz Review website,  a source which has been deprecated for several months. The website's list of articles from Encounter features scans of the front covers of each issue created, one assumes, without consent so the WP:COPYLINK policy applies and the website should not be cited. A substitute list of Encounters content may not exist online, but I am not sure if a list of the contributors who had 10 or more articles published by the journal is particularly helpful.

thread_title: Unz citations

message: The point is that this exact copy contains a highly interesting claim about the book, Story of O', that supposedly it was inspired by the Austrian philosoper Otto Weininger´s ideas about the absolute man and the absolute woman, and that role plaid by the character of ´O´ is a reflection of the absolute woman. I don´t cite the book that lists this edition of the magazine as a footnote within itself as a reference here, because the overrall subject of the book is too different from what is being discussed in the article here.
