Welcome edit
- Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

I've reverted this as it doesn't follow our policies and guidelines, which I suggest you read before editing again. Start with WP:NOR as you've got statements that needed reliable third party sources (see WP:VERIFY and {{WP:RS]] and sections that have sources that do not discuss the subject of the article, which they must do. Writing an article here is extremely different from writing an article for a journal or writing an essay, where you can combine sources that don't discuss your subject to make an argument about your subject.

- Ok, thanks for your response on my talk page.
- All the stuff at the bottom of your edit about law and legal persons, etc. doesn't belong as it isn't sourced to anything discussing the subject of the artice. Sources for this sort of material basically need to come from third party sources discussing the movement (not from the movement itself).
- Back to the top. See WP:Words to Watch and don't use phrases like 'It should be noted'. Then there's the bit about the source for, eg, "generally regarded by those within the movement to be an oxymoron," - how can one YouTube video source a statement about something being 'generally regarded'? And the next two sentences there are unsourced and I'd say need a source because they are important. Can you find a third party source saying there's no hierarchy? Again, how can one source make that claim (and I note that the website says you can't use it in the media, so maybe you can't use it here, you certainly couldn't use a forum as a source).
- "While" etc - again, avoid statements using while. Avoid 'unfortunately' also. Who says "this is far from the norm as regards the Sovereignty Movement" - this may be correct but really needs a source. I guess you could use someone in the movement as a source so long as you attribute it to them as their opinion (you don't have to say opinion, just 'Joe Smith says ....). "Spiritual Economics Now" is a blog, fails WP:RS.
- This is a particularly difficult article to edit I'm afraid. Another policy to read is WP:NPOV. Dougweller (talk) 11:30, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
