your edits to Maum meditation

Hi Knowthemaum... Welcome to Wikipedia!

Unfortunately, I looked at the additions you made to the article Maum meditation ‎. I'm sure you were trying to add relevant information to the article but there are a couple of problems.

First, there are no references cited in your information. Wikipedia depends on the information in articles being verifiable. Other editors and readers have to have a way to check the information in 3rd-party sources to see that the information has been published elsewhere. If not for this requirement, then anyone could add information about subjects that is known to be false.

Second, a good deal of what you have added is not neutral. By that I mean that you are giving your opinions rather than facts. This is not accepted in Wikipedia articles.

Finally, your account name, "Knowthemaum" kind of makes me think that you created the account with the sole purpose of writing about Maum Meditation - that you had an agenda. That's something that's frowned upon in Wikipedia also.

Like I said at the outset.. This is something that you feel strongly about, apparently, and you wish to have people see all sides of the subject, but at Wikipedia you need to be neutral and you have to have references to verify claims.

If you have any questions, feel free to let me know! Wikipelli ^Talk 20:10, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
