Please discuss additions/substractions here

I have moved the contributions of two editors (75.54.92.32 and Doc9871) within the article to the Influence section. While the information may be true, Cascade School was not a CEDU property. In addition the information was not sourced. If the editors wish for the information to remain part of this article they will have to cite sources, otherwise I will delete it after a reasonable period of time.I (talk) 04:22, 29 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No problem moving it out of the section. The IP editor added it to the article and I "fixed" it; but it is certainly true that Michael Allgood and a group of staff and students founded Cascade in 1984 after leaving CEDU. Sources are pretty hard to come by on this, but I will search for them. Before you consider removing it I would recommend a [citation needed] tag instead: it's not damaging to the article and just needs outside verification, really.

Some of the unsourced material in this article has been in the article for quite some time. Presumably sites such as the CEDU or Brown Schools websites were the source and have subsequently disappeared. That is not reason enough to remove everything. -- Cdw ♥'s(talk) 21:49, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

if the source no longer exists, it's now unsourced and should come out. The fact that it has been in the article for a long time is irrelevant. Snertking (talk) 06:06, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
If it was sourced when it went in the article, it is not magically unsourced when a website is no longer available. It should stay and more accessible sources should be found or archives of the original sources. Rifter0x0000 (talk) 13:16, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

isac website cites

pretty much all the info that cites the isac.org website needs to come out, as that site is now defunct and has been specifically excluded from the wayback machine/archive.org. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Snertking (talkcontribs) 06:03, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

struggling teens WP:RS issues

I seem to recall there being some consensus on other pages that strugglingteens.com, as an industry marketing organization, is not WP:RS. Seems that the overwhelming majority of the article is backed by cites from that page. We may need to stub this. Snertking (talk) 06:12, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]


STUB IT!!!!! """ Lon had worked as the admissions director at the CEDU program, Rocky Mountain Academy, in Bonners Ferry, Idaho, and decided that he could better help parents find the most appropriate placement for their at-risk children if he was independent."""" Just like Pharma, no one is 'independent'...Stugglingteens.com is BS for a source. Contact Info: 7119 2nd St | PO Box 1107 | Bonners Ferry, ID 83805 Probably a website run by one of the owners/employees of formerly RMA/BCA, given how they shit talk Brown, yet sugar coat CEDU. There ain't much in BF, some ranches and the cults (er, EG boarding schools). Population 300. References to Quality of Service/Life are BS. "Provo is a great place"...No it isn't. Provo is LOCKDOWN (with heavy medication [drugging], think momma in T2, that is what lockdown is). Provo is where they threaten to send you if you 'don't get it'. I learned real early on after the first talk I got ('you can either get it here, or there'), it usually only takes one. I went there 97-98, before it was a 'Brown School', Brown didn't buy it till I was good and gone. And it actually got a little better, from what I heard from other students, after Brown took it over. But they assumed liability somehow with the CEDU debacle and couldn't survive all that crap. If they strayed from the 'original' CEDU philosophy it was probably a GOOD THING! Parents you need to watch out for the snakes in the grass...These programs can promise you the moon and the stars, hell they even have STATISTICS backing up their claims on how SUCCESSFUL they are. FACT: Everyone I met there, went straight back to whatever the heck they were doing before they got there. But somehow that doesn't make their stats (for many reasons for you to consider (reliability of statistical gathering, doctoring of data, ect.). So how do I cite myself as a source for RMA, which was just CEDU for kids that didn't have 'special needs'. Want a good source, try CEDU Documentary on You Tube. Oh and how about the time my fever was so high I was hallucinating, but all they could do is give me some ibuprofren. Yeah, you don't get an on call doctor 7miles from Bonners Ferry for 50K/year. You get the lunch lady and a bunch of OTC remedies, execpt for the kids on the pharma train...All class 3 and up for them. user: Nikopedia303 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nikopedia303 (talkcontribs) 19:16, 3 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
