"Why would anyone reading, say, Natural Law, or Don't Put a Rubber on Your Willy need a link to, say, Ezra Pound?" (lol). Have to leave now, will get to this later, thanks. Randy Kryn 16:27, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Robert Anton Wilson's influences are well credited, talked about, and shared with his readers in all of his books, on his Wikipedia page, and in his recorded lectures, and seem so well documented and continually discussed by the subject that it seems appropriate for his template to contain such a section.

I won't agree that they don't belong, there are definitely templates where an 'influences' section works well, but you may be right about authors and but I'll remove the section and edit-in some of the links to the 'Related' portion of the template.

Will get back to these later, have to leave now. Wilson's wife is a recognized poet and his daughter created and heads up a major medical organization. Both articles will definitely be written someday, thus red links are allowed. Randy Kryn 16:25, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

I don't think they would pass

Here's a quick link to a subject-written bio of Christina Pearson. Her founded organization, Trichotillomania Learning Center, doesn't have a Wikipedia page yet either. Maybe you're right on this one, until one or both of her pages are written. Randy Kryn 17:40, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
