[edit] Future Recommendations
Though the article has come a long way, its far from perfect and here is a list of few more ideas that could be incorporated.
- It is difficult to encompass the whole of SNM in a single page. So more pages will definitely be added for the future.
- Annual Congregations need to be mentioned. This should incorporate not just the Delhi smagam, but also those held in other regions eg. bombay and even those abroad
- Pictures, videos could be added provided copyright permission from SNM is obtained. Please do take note that publishing anything on this media means publishing under a GFDL compatible license, which means that anyone can publicise/use/distort stuff mentioned here freely.
- A good review of the nirankari literature including the SNM magazine, is needed. At the moment its a mere list.
- Referencing - This has been put off as the article is still in development stages. If the Vancouver style has to be used, this would mean massive alteration of the article each time it is edited. A Harvard style is preferred for now, as it is less of a hassle.
- There is extremely little of the SNM History. All there is at the moment is whatever that is available on the official website. How about reading through the SNM literature to incorporate more SNM history.
- Perhaps there needs to be a section on all the inter-faith meetings that are being held.
- If more stuff could be added for the Sewa dal section, it might as well come on a new page.
If anyone has anything else to say for the purposes of improving the article, please mention it here. If anyone is intrested in editing, please do so. Be mindful of the fact that information needs to be written in a factual manner, rather than an opiniated manner. References are highly encouraged. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zyx42 (talk • contribs) 18:17, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Tone and unreferenced
This article should change from an uncritical self-description with an unencyclopedic tone to an article with reliable third party references. To describe beliefs and practices scholarly references are preferred. Andries (talk) 17:51, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
It is not enough that the website of the mission is used as references. Andries (talk) 17:58, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
