== parapsychology as a science == | |||
All the proof that is needed is the fact that the AAAS is partnered with a noted parapsychology research group. | |||
If America's most prestigious scientific scientific grouping supports the scientific nature of parapsychology research, then it is clearly and undeniably a science. | |||
HOWEVER, while parapsychology is a science. Not all of its research/finding are scientific or supported by science. For example, the existence of EVP can be researched using science, and ''anomalies'' have been found using scientific methods for finding anomalies, it absolutely has not been rationalized using science and is not accepted as proven by science. | |||
] 07:27, 22 February 2007 (UTC) | |||
The fact that the AAAS supports the validity of parapsychology as a research field is all the proof that you need that it is a science. Else, try looking up the Ganzfeld experiment. It's had more mainstream coverage than most. | |||
] 07:43, 22 February 2007 (UTC) | |||
You could try looking at "An Introduction to Parapsychology" by Harvey Irwin. Irwin has lectured in parapsychology as a scientific field for 25 years at the university of New England and has a lot to say. Try reading chapter 17. It deals with both efforts to establish parapsychology as a science, and mainstream sciences reactions. | |||
Also try looking at J B Rhine's efforts to ensure that parapsychology experiments were conducted under controlled laboratory conditions, and that they used credible methodologies. | |||
] 09:28, 22 February 2007 (UTC) | |||
You might also like to point out that parapsychology is "the scientific study of ....", not the "search for proof for.....". This means that mainstream scientists who uses science to debunk something paranormal, or to prove a previous parapsychology experiment is flawed, are themselves conducting a parapsychology experiment. | |||

No probs, the EVP article has been a bit of a problem even more than most. It seems tht we have been going round in circles for months and the different senses of EVP seems to never get resolved. I'm not at all sure how we're going to get the thing into a reasonable state.] 02:39, 23 February 2007 (UTC) | |||
Martin, to your point about someone not liking "is defined as", I don't see any problem with it. The skeptics will have a problem with it, because it's a clear statement, without skeptical qualifieres; but a clear statement from all views is absolutely necessary for NPOV - and since the actual basis for EVP is indeed from the view that it exists, and is from a paranormal source - that is the significant definition to start the article with. From the skeptical viewpoint, EVP is a mirage, false, and so EVP doesn't exist, thus there would be no article. Secondly, EVP hasn't been proven false. You can't base an article on those negative assumptions. That's what their entire argument started with, "nothing in science, therefore only popular culture can be used". Well, pop culture thinks it exists. ] <small> ] </small> 04:04, 23 February 2007 (UTC) | |||

Thanks for uploading ''']'''. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under ], but its use in Misplaced Pages articles fails our ] in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please: | |||
# Go to ] and edit it to add <code><nowiki>{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}</nowiki></code>, '''without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template'''. | |||
# On ], write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all. | |||
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, ], or by taking a picture of it yourself. | |||
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on <span class="plainlinks"></span>.

==Regarding ]== | |||
Well heck, I was just arguing a point that I thought was valid without realizing that others already had that idea and were talking about it. So far I've been asking where does it say that parapsychology must produce positive results to be a science, and here you go and find sources about that very thing! This would be a great contribution to the article! Great job. If anything, it will help the mediation which is probably where this is heading. | |||

==Extrasensory Perception== | |||
On ] (which I update too frequently) I have decided to open the file drawers belonging to Dean Radin at ''Extrasensory Perception.'' (Start from the beginning of the section.) There are a few citations missing. I hope to find these sources again. But I haven't made up my mind how hard I want to search. Here too, I tried to clarify my use of terms relating to mental health and the mind. It is not name calling. It is a somewhat educated observation. There is too much paranoia on the Misplaced Pages. "When you attack my beliefs you attack me." What's with that? Everything is an attack there are no such things as disagreement and challenge? I have seen you use the "us" and "them" labels, a bad sign. Perhaps you will be entertained by my weird style of magic. ] 26 Feb 2007 | |||
==Parapsychology article== | |||
Would ArbCom take the case (I mean, after mediation)? Aren't their decisions binding? I want a ruleing on parapsychology as a science for the purposes of Misplaced Pages. Failed science or no. ''']''' <sub>(] Ψ ])</sub> 23:21, 26 February 2007 (UTC) | |||
:I have no idea. Neutrality is number 2 on the 5 pillar list ]. Number 5 is that there's no hard rules. So while I'm not totally familar with it, I doubt anything is actually "binding". What I'm shooting for is number 2. By attributing the definition to the Parapsychology Association, it is neutrally put. That is, you can either agree with the Parapsychology Association or not. With deeply controversial topics (like I said, the same debate going on here has been going on since the 70s), it's up to the reader to decide for themselves. We'll see how it goes. Are you happy with the current opening? | |||
