Original research?
[edit]From article: In 1973, T.L. Thorson wrote in the 4th edition of A History of Political Theory: "It is the mark of a modern mind to be able to explicitly create a "myth" as a way of influencing others (as, for example, Plato does in The Republic). In it original sense myth is a literal description. T.L. Thorson (1973) A History of Political Theory, 4th edition, page 14 " . Is it WP:Original research? Biosthmors (talk) pls notify me (i.e. {{U}}) while signing a reply, thx 15:19, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- Can you Biosthmors please clarify your question? Do you want to say that 1973 work of Thorson violates wikipedia OR policy or that editors who used this work did?--Antidiskriminator (talk) 16:26, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- The Thorson quote is not WP:OR. A quote from a reliable source is not "original research" prohibited in this Project.Rgdboer (talk) 21:31, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
