Talk:Fishman Affidavit

message: Added link to Scientology Fishman page
Why was the Church suing Fishman in the first place?
The suit was dropped on request of the Church. This is not mentioned. There's a lot missing from this article.

message: :The Fishman Affidavit contained among others, a version of the secret Scientology course called "OT 8". Some Scientologists have done this course and posted reproductions of it from memory to the internet.  This proved that Fishman`s version of OT 8 was a complete fabrication. (emphasis added)
The text above was added by .  The first sentence is factual and not in dispute.  The second is probably true but is unreferenced.  The third sentence is original research. -- Antaeus Feldspar 21:22, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I'm really tired of this sort of repeated tactic as well as a series of completely gratuitous time-wasting AFDs. What happened to your "deal"? AndroidCat 14:13, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Nobody seems to be watching over Barbara's article. BTW there are about 400 Project Scientology articles, to me that seems to be about 360 too many for the importance of the subject.  I would really prefer not to spend my time with them anymore. Steve Dufour 14:03, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Naturally, you are free to use your time as you wish. Since you are concerned with the wise use of people's time, I suggest you take WP:SNOW into account before proposing any more deletions. It is a waste of time to repeat this exercise for 360 more Scientology-related articles. --FOo 20:03, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

text:  As stated, you are free to completely ignore the article, and any others.  But the Fishman Affidavit is clearly notable, due to the widespread controversy and republication. Superm401 - Talk 04:41, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
