I just wonder if the Roger Hunt who is linked to this article - the British football player -- is the correct Roger Hunt referenced here as a member of the Order of the Sacred Word.

[edit] Relevance of a recent contribution to this article

Recently, the following lines were added to this article:

"However, Barcynski's declaration contains a few inconsistencies ..."

I wonder to what extent the lines above are in any way useful or relevant to the general public. These lines are highly speculative and subjective, and reflect too much their author's bias. As a result, they do not meet the standards of objectivity/accuracy that Wikipedia demands of its contributors (cf. Wikipedia policies and guidelines: Wikipedia:Neutral point of view; Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:No original research). These lines should be removed.

Addendum: These lines have been revised.

[edit] Leon Barcynski's statement (January 1, 2007)

The contributions to this article of the past few weeks suggest that their authors have personal problems with Mr. Barcynski's declaration featured on the website of the Aurum Solis (http://aurumsolis.net/20070101_osborne_phillips.htm).

Yet it bears repeating that Wikipedia is intended as a serious and reliable resource, and therefore expects of its contributors the highest possible amount of objectivity and accuracy. Wikipedia is clearly not the place for speculation and personal interpretation.

Inasmuch as the said contributors cannot refrain from commenting upon Mr. Barcynski's declaration, it is now reproduced on this page in full, so as to let the facts speak for themselves.

[edit] Discussion page

The additions and changes of the past few weeks make it clear that there is some measure of disagreement among the contributors to this page.
The Talk/Discussion page accompanying each Wikipedia page is intended to discuss modifications to the main page and one's reasons for making them. Would the other contributors to this page agree to communicate on this Talk page and express their motivations for making changes? A useful link in this regard is the Talk page guidelines page.

[edit] Notes on sources

A number of sources have problems. For one, the website titles "The Ogdoadic Notes" does not appear to be a reliable source. It does not cite its own sources, and appears to be someone's personal website. As such, it can't be used as a reference. Also, the use of yahoo group, emails, blogs, etc. as references is not permitted. GlassFET 14:37, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
