Talk:Shinnyo-en

message: The article about Shinnyo-en can be modified and improved because: 
* It is not verifiable
* It is not neutral
* It reveals too much detail about Shinnyo-en to the general public.
**Shinnyo-en is supposed to be esoteric.
**Go to your nearby Shinnyo-en temple and ask the jimu-kyoku (office-people): some Shinnyo-en publications are designed for the general public (example: the pamphlet "What is Shinnyo-en") and some publications should be given only to people who are connected (example: the Kangi-Seki).
**It is my understanding that, according to Shinnyo-en policy, the pamphlet "What is Shinnyo-en" is the limit of detail appropriate for the general public.
I intend to modify this article according to Wiki policy and Shinnyo-en policy.

thread_title:  Article modified 

message: Hirokayamasaki has been improving the page and refining the wording, and now it is well-written and almost free of grammar mistakes. Unfortunately, many paragraphs of un-verifiable and non-neutral material were added back, without a discussion on this "talk" page, and the article is again outside Wikipedia policy.
At the beginning of the non-neutral section, Hirokayamasaki added a disclaimer saying "the following was written by one follower ... questions should be asked" at Shinnyo-en, but Wikipedia articles are supposed to be encyclopedic in their entirety.  Articles should not have a bias section, especially not one that comprises 95% of the article (30100 of the 31500 characters), even with a disclaimer.
Hirokayamasaki has put so much good effort into writing this, it would be a shame to waste -- best would be if he were to host the material on a separate web site and include a link to it in the article's "External Links".  I have made this suggestion on Hirokayamasaki's Talk page.

thread_title:  Original research and bias added back with no discussion 

message: I do not see any guideline on the use of "en" (苑) on WP:MOS-JA, but it seems far more natural to me to write it as either "Shinnyoen" (since there is no space or hyphen or the like in the Japanese), or more preferably as "Shinnyo-en", which is how it is represented in the URL of the official website and throughout the website itself. Any objections? LordAmeth (talk) 11:57, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Requested move

message: The list of Shinjo Ito quotes at the end is probably inappropriate and should be removed. I would do that now, but they might still be useful in illustrating beliefs within the body of the article. I tagged it, in any event. —anamedperson (talk) 14:39, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, the "Quotes" section is unsourced and does not appear to be appropriate in an encyclopedia. I propose to remove it.  JimRenge (talk) 19:22, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Indeed, the whole article suffers from lack of sources. I've added some  tags as well hoping that those editors with access to proper sources would fix the problem. So far, honestly, I have failed to find such sources myself. I also agree with removing the unsourced material. Jayaguru-Shishya (talk) 19:36, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
