thread_title:  Bookable offence? 

message: Don't get me wrong I agree with this statement: "Several thinkers have argued that a healthy society needs not only to protect, but also to encourage dissent." Although a dose of dissent is healthy to a community, a dissident however may have a negative effect on smaller groups such as friends, work groups etc, always nay-saying and not contributing practical solutions for example. I think something like this should be added to the article, anybody help with a source? Ryan4314 (talk) 14:39, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

message: There are different ways in different groups to work with opinions or convictions being considered to be sectarian. (I am not sure whether this is the right word in this context.)
I think we should work this out a little bit within the article, sooner or later.
To begin with:
Statement Of His Eminence The Gaden Tri Rinpoche (Head Of Gelukpa Sect) Regarding The Worship Of Gods And Protectors Excerpt: „The Mahayana teachings advocates altruistic attitude of sacrificing few for the sake of many. Thus why is it not possible for one, who acclaims oneself to be a Mahayana, to stop worshipping these dubious gods and deities for the sake and benefit of the Tibetans in whole and for the well-being of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. In the Vinaya (Buddhist code of discipline), it is held that since a controversial issue is settled by picking the mandatory twig by 'accepting the voice of many by the few' the resolution should be accepted by all. As it has been supported by ninety five percent it would be wise and advisable for the rest five percent to stop worshipping the deity keeping in mind that there exists provisions such as the four Severe Punishments (Nan tur bzhi), the seven Expulsions (Gnas dbyung bdun) and the four Convictions (Grangs gzhug bzhi) in the Vinaya.“ 
His Eminence states that according to the Vinaya the minority has to follow or at least it should follow the majority (in numbers) in order to reestablish harmony.

message: Should Dissenter be merged here per WP:GLOBAL? It seems Nonconformist (as precurrent WP:COMMONNAME) covers much the non-global, religious history-specific scope of Dissenter, doesn't it? PPEMES (talk) 17:02, 23 January 2020 (UTC)

text: Thanks . I just stumbled into the page while working on something else. It seemed straightforward how to flesh the page out similar to how other broad topics had been handled. Just go through the See Alsos, make the key ones subsections, and copy in parts of the ledes to the See Alsos as the content. I'll take a look at that template, but this is not an area where I think I have any special expertise. On this page I just did some basic editing that required no particular expertise the subject.Teishin (talk) 21:42, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

message: Hi: I'm not sure that the Biography tag is justified for this page. It is not about a person.
Quoting from the scope note of the WP Biography page:
"The Biography WikiProject concerns the creation, development, and organization of Wikipedia's articles about persons (including but not limited to biographies). It includes only articles about individual persons, not about an organization or group or association, unless a substantial section of the article is a biography of a person related to that organization or group. It includes biographies of only real humans; thus, the project does not cover other animals or fictitious persons (such as pseudonyms) or fictional characters..."

message: Religious dissent in the article is reduced to heresy and schism. Its scope should be significantly broader: not all dissent is heretical or schismatic. For example, a Catholic couple using contraception consciously dissent from the teaching of the Church, but they are neither heretics nor schismatics. If someone is competent enough to write on this topics, please do. --Nieszczarda2 (talk) 22:56, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
