Looking to improve upon articles of subjects that I have studied.

Working on the Eight-circuit model of consciousness, starting from November, 2016. I've read 8 books on this topic, and have viewed the Wikipedia article of the Eight-circuit model of consciousness for over 7 years.

For years, the article has been chopped and edited by people with their opinion. Most of the article (like 90%) as it is now is referenced from third party sources. For example, the website deoxy.org takes parts from Robert Anton Wilson's book "Prometheus Rising", and the original Wikipedia editors of the article have sourced deoxy.org as credible sources.

My editing consists first and foremost of adding direct source statements, with in line citations. Secondly, researching what claims are on the article as it is now, and adding citations, or deleting what cannot be traced back to a credible source.

Note there are differences in page numbers between prints! (found difference in page numbers between 3rd printing(1992) and 7th printing(2011)
Exo-Psychology by Timothy Leary. (First major work on the Eight-circuit model of consciousness)
Evolutionary Agents by Timothy Leary. (one of Leary's last works completed on the Eight-circuit model)
Game of Life by Timothy Leary with contributions by Robert Anton Wilson
Prometheus Rising by Robert Anton Wilson (large contribution from Wilson, most widely used source for the eight circuit model)
Quantum Psychology by Robert Anton Wilson
Angel Tech by Antero Alli. Forward by Robert Anton Wilson. (with reference to Info-Psychology as Leary's work on the Eight-circuit model)
The Eight-Circuit Brain by Antero Alli (one of the most recent books published on the Eight-circuit model)

The Eight-Circuit Model of Consciousness is a hypothesis by Timothy Leary, and later expanded on by Robert Anton Wilson and Antero Alli, that "suggests eight periods[circuits] of neurological evolution"[1], or eight "brains" as referred by other authors, which operate within the human nervous system, each corresponding to its own imprint and direct experience of reality.[2] Leary called his book "science faction" or "psi-phy" and noted he had written it "in various prisons to which the author had been sentenced for dangerous ideology and violations of Newtonian and religious laws".[3]
