Talk:Dore Programme

message: * The actual quote from the cited resource says: "Wynford Dore, the businessman who pioneered dyslexia, dyspraxia and attention deficit therapy (DDAT) after his dyslexic daughter became suicidal." Ste4k 12:38, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Actual quote from cited resource 

message: I've removed comments in the Criticism section that aren't criticisms as they do not cite any sources and are just opinions. But I suppose I'm preaching to the choir here.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vosechu (talk • contribs) 17:34, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Refutations in Criticism Section

message: This is a very important subject so I think it is equally important that the article is tidied up and made as informative as possible. The claims and counter-claims need to be stated properly and references sited (I've found a few but there are many more out there). I've taken the 'not npov' label off as I think I have taken out the offending statements but clearly there is much to do to make this article as good as it can be. Btljs 22:12, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: NPOV

message: I've just added a note to the Stafford prison section: the study was fully funded by Wynford Dore, and has not been peer-reviewed. There are no further details of the study on http://www.dore.co.uk/research.aspx, but asking the prisoners to report qualitative outcomes introduces an obvious source of memory bias. A more credible study would also have compared outcomes with other methods; the choice when dealing with troubled prisoners is not DORE or nothing. Motmot 15:01, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Stafford prison study

message: A recient edit to the article removed most of the critical material and replaced it with a very positive take on the program. I've restored the criticism section but left the new content. This leaves the article in a messy state which I don't have time at the moment to fix.
We do need to find a way to make the article NPOV, previous versions have been very negative of the program. --Salix (talk): 15:14, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The new material was not only highly POV, it was very poorly sourced and made claims (such as Dore restarting its programme) that were not supported by the source (a Dore press release). I made a change to undid that, add a reliable source on the liquidation of Dore, and convert some of the words to past tense. Hope this helps. Eubulides (talk) 17:42, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  The same edit was inserted again. Please discuss this sort of thing on the talk page first. I also suggest consulting WP:NPOV and WP:V for why there may be problems with that edit. For now, I've reverted it again. Eubulides (talk) 20:28, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  Maybe Dore itself is editing here, and trying to brighten up the page, deleting criticism, etc. see http://holfordwatch.info/2010/03/17/dore-and-some-interesting-wikipedia-edits/  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.137.22.156 (talk) 08:11, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

text: So I edited the lede to make it not just positive, but reflect some of the criticisms of Dore as well. Right now all the "not so positive parts" are in the section "Further Research". But someone just reading the intro does not get a sense of it without reading the whole article. Hopefully this helps balance a bit. Thoughts? Nasa-verve (talk) 15:43, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Now to make this NPOV 

message: This article has serious issues with the sources used. Self published primary sources are not acceptable. Self published YouTube promotional videos are not reliable sources. Unduly self serving content from self published, primary sources has to be removed.
"The Dore method demonstrates that, as skills become more automatic, the working memory required to perform a task decreases." this is unsourced assertion of fact that needs WP:MEDRS quality support.
"The Dore Programme aims to stimulate the development of the cerebellum and hence to strengthen the communications between the cerebrum and cerebellum." with the promotional website of the company selling this programme for a reference. This is grossly out of compliance with policy.
