3rd opinion

The article badly lacks independent evaluation of the theory. Please provide references from independent reliable sources. Please keep in mind that blogs, message boards, etc. are not valid references in wikipedia. `'Míkka 23:44, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I added several sources which should get things headed in the right direction. The criticisms of the theory weren't in any published journals that I could find, although I believe I could link to Bill Kerr's presentation from conference proceedings instead of his blog summary if you would view that as more reliable.

I'd like to include some of Stephen Downes' contributions on the subject as well, but I wasn't able to find any non-blog sources. I know Downes is generally philosophically opposed to the entire peer review process, but does anyone know of a source for his thoughts outside of his site and blog?

Although the article may not be substantiated with a sufficient number of "independent" sources, I do not think deleting it is the right solution. Just wait and let it expand, like all knowledge expands over time. Thiemehennis (talk) 17:23, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
