Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Skepticism/Skeptic watchlists

pseudoskepticism

Someone just added a statement to pseudoscience saying that pseudoskepticism is a form of pseudoscience. Pseudoskepticism is actually a term coined by Truzzi for skepticism different from his own, so it is not a pseudoscience. This needs to be clarified. Bubba73 (talk), 15:33, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Philip J. Klass

I once put NPOV on Philip J. Klass, but someone removed it. I asked for other opinions, and today someone finally agreed, so I put NPOV back on it. Bubba73 (talk), 22:15, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Demonology topic needed

I think a set of topics/categories is needed to cover demonology, exorcism, claims of ritualistic abuse/sacrifice, etc. Before I go posting these, can others please add to this list and suggest a category? --Otheus 21:36, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Metaphysics?

I have left a note on the Anusara School of Hatha Yoga article's talk page about the metaphysics being presented like facts in Wikipedia's voice (a discussion thread at the fringe theories noticeboard made me notice it). This made me wonder if we may want to have a section on metaphysics with such articles in the watchlist? Another venue for such articles might be the todo list, perhaps.

Hi! Don't hesitate to add articles to this list if you want to. In general, I think that an article belongs in here if no matter how many times we fix it, there is always be a new crowd of people trying to put pseudoscience back into them. If the problem has not yet been addressed and the article needs a cleanup, it should be put somewhere else on the project, where it will get immediate attention. If the article has been subject of a ruling by the arbitration committee, it's a good indication that it belongs here.

As for Anusara School of Hatha Yoga , it would be a great idea to discuss it on the project's talk page, and to put it on the to-do list. Using those communication tools is best thing anyone can do to right now to bring some life back into this project. You can do it when you're working on anything related to skepticism or pseudoscience. Hopefully the project will slowly get more active, as that would be a big net positive for Wikipedia!

Thanks for your reply. I'm not sure if that is a persistent case but it was my first interaction with that article. I therefore agree that it may be better for the todo list than for the watchlist at this stage. I have added it there. — PaleoNeonate — 03:01, 7 May 2017 (UTC)
