Revision as of 06:38, 6 September 2006
My name is Andries Krugers Dagneaux. I am from the Netherlands. Interests are cult/cults, Hinduism, science (esp. physics), electronics (component level), chess. I am an avid but not the most accurate reader and I have to admit that my edits in Misplaced Pages have unfortunately occasionally reflected my reading habits.
Awards
Partial list of articles that I started
Partial list of articles to which I made major contributions
My contributions to Sathya Sai Baba led to a Misplaced Pages:arbitration in which I am one of the two adverseries. See Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_arbitration/Sathya_Sai_Baba. I am affiliated with the website of Dutch concerned former followers of Sathya Sai Baba
Non-English language sources
Strictly confing ourselves to English language sources in the English Misplaced Pages cripples it. Using only Dutch if this negatively affects the quality of a work has never been acceptable in the scientific and scholarly traditions of the Netherlands. I volunteer to check references in German and Dutch languages upon request. Please join the Misplaced Pages:non-English languages reference check committee.
Trustworthy editors
I consider the follower contributors good editors whom I trust, though this does not mean that I agree with all their edits. (There are many other good editors at Misplaced Pages.)
Is Misplaced Pages a cult?
Please read this eye-opening new article that dissects Misplaced Pages's propaganda! User:Andries/Wikipedia:controversy Feel free to expand.
Favorite quotes
Re-reading sources
In my experience, it takes a lot of effort to write a good article. Sometimes I think I can rely on my memory of books that I read a while ago but later I find out then some inaccuracies have slipped in. So I really have to re-study the subject to write a good article.
Misplaced Pages:dispute resolution
I do not believe that Misplaced Pages:dispute resolution will be able to handle the great number of disputes. On a busy day I file three serious requests for comments. Still, I think that is good to follow the dispute resolution process even if this leads to the conclusion that it does not work. Then something should change.
Keeping Misplaced Pages maintainable is one of my concerns
Feel free to expand my essay User:Andries/Wikipedia:maintainability
Definitions
I do not like concepts for which no clear definitions can be given, like Fundamentalism, New Age and Anti-Cult Movement. I doubt whether they have any added value.
