should this be in the article?[edit]

i want this quote from the document "keeping scientology working" to be in the article:

"The proper instruction attitude is, "You're here so you're a Scientologist. Now we're going to make you into an expert auditor no matter what happens. We'd rather have you dead than incapable.""

i will not forget this, i will not be quiet until this quote is in the article, because this is the most infamous quote from the whole document. Unfortunately, Wikipedia-user "Cirt" keeps removing it when i try to add it, without having any good reasons to do so. This is not acceptable. Kurtilein (talk) 20:01, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do any independent reliable secondary sources discuss this quote or comment on why it is particularly relevant and noteworthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia article? Cirt (talk) 01:32, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

@Cirt does this count? https://www.watchman.org/articles/scientology/scientology_a-history-of-terror-and-abuse/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.56.88.202 (talk) 09:16, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing, expansion[edit]

Quite a lot more can be added to the article, considering it is the single most important policy letter in all of Scientology and the cornerstone of the Religious Technology Center's mandate to protect the purity and ethical application of the Scientology religion. Needs a lot of wikification, sources, and should be divided into appropriately titled sections. Laval (talk) 19:47, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I changed the "Background" section to "Content" and rewrote it entirely, since the earlier version was muddled in purpose and included incorrectly quoted and unsourced text. I also added a source for the quotes from the KSW policy letter. It probably still needs more work, but hopefully this will be seen as an improvement. -- Hi Ev 20:15, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Source[edit]

Five times this source is cited: Chris Thompson (2012-09-23). "'Keeping Scientology Working,' A Critical Look At Scientology's Most Sacred Scripture". Retrieved 2013-09-01. The work is not peer reviewed, and the author is not an authority. It is just a blog of person unknown. (https://irchristo.wordpress.com/2012/09/23/keeping-scientology-working-a-critical-look-at-scientologys-most-sacred-scripture/). It does not satisfy wp:sources and Definition of a Source. Since the article relies so heavily on this inadequate piece, the article should be removed if this source cannot be replaced. Slade Farney (talk) 22:18, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
