The Wikipedia entry for "New Relationship Energy" is currently being considered for deletion. The deletion policy overview says:
"All text created in the Wikipedia main namespace is subject to several important rules, including three cardinal content policies (Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, Wikipedia:Verifiabi lity, and Wikipedia:No original research) and the copyright policy (Wikipedia:Copyrigh ts). Together, these policies govern the admissibility of text in the main body of the encyclopedia, and only text conforming to all four policies is allowed in the main namespace."
I'm trying to figure out which of these has been violated. It appears to me to have a neutral POV, there is clearly original research, i.e. links to various references, both Wiki pages and others. I don't imagine that the copyright policy has been violated. Maybe it's the verifiability issue?
I feel this article has value. One of the more minor reasons I consider myself a "poly activist" is because, IMO, the relationship tools that poly relationships demand for succes are tools that I believe ALL relationships need for success. I feel that polyamory is no different from other relationships in the sense that it is a form of relating to another human being outside of a vacuum, with pressures and stresses from other sources. I believe the poly community serves our society as a whole a very important positive function in that it examines the way we relate to other people and seeks to improve relationships, where the definition of "improve" includes "makes people happier". The terminology is a tool used to communicate complex ideas, and it provides terms for concepts that have been neglected in monogamous society, but which exist in their society anyway.
Please chime in to save the entry if you feel it is an important addition to Wikipedia:
