BJK: This is a frivolous tag. This organization has been in existence since 1983 and there is no reason to challenge the neutrality of a research consultation that professes secular and humanistic objectives. --RJOSEPHHOFFMANN 21:25, 29 June 2006 (UTC) JH.[reply]

I'm the one that tagged the article POV. As it currently reads it, I am fine with it. Unless someone objects, I'll remove the POV tag. Brian 22:07, 29 June 2006 (UTC)btball[reply]

IMHO this is starting to read like a decent Wikipedia article --- but it still reads a bit like an advertisement and I'm tempted to tag it as advert. The only external links are back to the site the article is about (or related parent or sibling sites) and there are no external independent references. It would really help if there were links to independent sites that talk about CSER or other independent references. My biggest concern was the lack of R Hoffmann following protocal and eliminating tags without explanation or changes to the article (and I left a note to that effect on his talk page). I do think there's a legitimate article here, but it needs a bit more work. Brian 11:33, 30 June 2006 (UTC)btball[reply]

Hi Brian, The research asst. has been "cautioned" to work with the text and not to violate protocol. I think we are wrestling with the line between "importance" and "advert" right now; we will work through that in the next days. I appreciate your attention to the style and format of the article.--RJOSEPHHOFFMANN 11:50, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
