Well, I can only speak for what I've contributed to this page and what I've added is rather trivial and fundamental and something that anyone using CLDs could tell you even when they're asleep. The rest of the text looks like a typical CLD introduction to me and I have seen many similar texts (and I've probably said very similar things quite a few times). For the record, it would be nice if you could specify a more precise link, just to see how similar the texts are. If it's not a word-for-word transcription I would give it the benefit of the doubt. What this article desparately needs (IMHO), however, is proper references to the Systems Thinking community, to the archetypes and all that stuff, perhaps mentioning books like "The Fifth Discipline" while doing so (which is/was a very nice book, but I think it lacks in methodology when it comes to CLDs) Saittam 23:05 Nov 14 2007 (CET) —Preceding comment was added at 22:06, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
