There is a Request for Comment at the Talk page for transhumanist politics. The Transhumanist Party recently finished an American bus tour – should it be mentioned in the "History" section of the article? –Haptic-feedback (talk) 07:05, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
Would talk:holocaust revisionism fall in this project's scope? Trying to father input on what to name or how to present an article conservatively designed to highlight basic reliably publicized changes in statistical estimates of death counts or camp sites. Basically to cover legitimate revisionism rather than the illegitimate kind which often needs to negationism or denialism.
People seem to think a source need s to use the exact phrase to be counted in a field and can't acknowledge a changed number estimate is a revisionist. --Ranze (talk) 08:47, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
Electronic Harassment article
The alternative view of those who claim to be targeted individuals (TIs) is being described as a delusion at the electronic harassment article. I have tried to change that but failed, despite a Washington Post article Mind Games that is acceptable as a reliable source. Any assistance would be welcome. (for some reason I cannot give you a link to the Wikipedia "Electronic Harassment" article) Jed Stuart (talk) 04:22, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
New account possibly not understanding scope
Icannotthinkofagoodusername (talk·contribs) is adding the project template to people from Jerry Fallwell to Mussolini, and to White Supremacy. Perhaps someone from the project could check the additions and advise him? Thanks. Doug Wellertalk 18:08, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
This argument of mine is irrelevant, because it was based on the false premise of scope. This project's scope is limited to fields of endeavor, not strictly any "views".Eaterjolly (talk) 00:26, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
Biocentric universe
There is a deletion debate here at
Biocentric universe that involves whether major mainstream sources are adequate or if top science journals are always required as a source. It's over a heavily covered alternative thought in mainstream press. Lots of highly anti-alternative people involved and vocal. May be of interest. Grump International (talk

Greetings WikiProject Alternative views/Archive 4 Members!
This is a one-time-only message to inform you about a technical proposal to revive your Popular Pages list in the 2016 Community Wishlist Survey that I think you may be interested in reviewing and perhaps even voting for:
If the above proposal gets in the Top 10 based on the votes, there is a high likelihood of this bot being restored so your project will again see monthly updates of popular pages.
Further, there are over 260 proposals in all to review and vote for, across many aspects of wikis.

Clarify in the Scope: Field versus not Field
I propose clarifying:
Theology is a field, religion is not.
Political Science is a field, politics is not.
Philosophy is a field, spirituality is not.
etc..
Also seems like a lot of these articles are about minority religions, political stances, people with lots of different unrelated views, etc.
I think it would be best to start removing articles which aren't either about a view itself or a major developer of a view. Individuals, organizations, and media designed to promote these ideas should not be included. 12.168.201.132 (talk) 07:02, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
I've reverted you at the NWO conspiracy theory talk page, that's still poly sci.Doug Wellertalk 07:20, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
