Minor additions to template, standard "Tnavbar" and added categories, template was previously not in any category. Probably a good idea to tighten the category inclusion though. Smee12:15, 17 January 2007 (UTC).
Thanks. I have removed Rennie Davies. He was a spokesperson for a while but do not thing that that warrants its inclusion. His name is already wikilinked from some of the articles. ≈ jossi ≈(talk)12:59, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Actually, it is a relatively not so new template anymore, that is widely used in pretty much everything and anything. See Template:Navbox generic for more info, it's pretty cool. Smee13:02, 16 May 2007 (UTC).
Fixed links to Wikimedia sister projects with appropriate interwiki links, and removed a link to a Wikipedia mirrored article at Citizendium. ≈ jossi ≈(talk)15:29, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
It is an external link, Smee, not a Wikimedia sister project. It could be added to the EL section, with the provisos stated at WP:EL. I have not seen ELs placed on templates, as these are designed to serve as navigational aid in WP and sister projects. ≈ jossi ≈(talk)22:13, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Oh. Thanks for the polite clarification, Jossi. Are there any other pertinent Wikimedia sister projects? Smee22:13, 16 May 2007 (UTC).
Yes, yes. Thanks for the wikilink. I mean, do you know of any other Sister Projects that are pertinent to this particular topic? Smee23:58, 16 May 2007 (UTC).
There are literally hundreds of books in which Prem Rawat is mentioned. We need to apply good editorial judgment on which books to add to this template. I have removed "Soul Rush". It is already wikilinked from the main article, alongside a score of others, and it is also listed on the list of related topics. That should suffice. ≈ jossi ≈(talk)15:40, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
The book is 17 chapters long, and over half the book, a full nine chapters, directly deals only with Guru Maharaj Ji and Divine Light Mission. That is a good amount of emphasis, and the book should remain wikilinked in the template. Smee15:51, 12 June 2007 (UTC).
I have the book and I have read it. It is not a scholarly book, but a personal biography. The book is fun reading, but do not think it merits its inclusion in that template. ≈ jossi ≈(talk)16:05, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
Personal biographies where over half of the biography directly discusses life with Guru Maharaj Ji and the Divine Light Mission is not directly relevant in a template about the topic? That seems highly odd. Smee16:08, 12 June 2007 (UTC).
Regardless of whether or not the article should be included in the template itself, the template is a useful navigational tool, and should remain on the article's page, as a footer at the bottom of the article. Smee08:14, 13 June 2007 (UTC).
Old probation notice
The Wikipedia Community has placed this article on 1RRprobation Articles in category:Prem Rawat are subject to community-enforced article probation restrictions for a period of three months, ending June 42008. Probation will be re-assessed at the end of that period, and extended if needed. Editors violating 1RR (one revert per editor per day), or that engage in disruptive editing may incur escalating blocks performed by uninvolved admins, or have other reasonable restrictions placed on them in relation to these topics. Editors must be individually notified of article probation before admin actions are undertaken. Violations, along with a link to this probation notice, should be posted to WP:AN/I, where uninvolved editors will make a determination.
I removed them at the behest of someone commenting at the FAC. I do notice that the links are already in the Prem Rawat article. But it doesn't matter to me either way. Will Bebacktalk01:40, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
