Talk:David Miscavige/Archive 3

2391:"hugely profitable global racket that survives by intimidating members and critics in a Mafia-like manner." A dozen former Scientologists have alleged that Miscavige has engaged in a pattern of physical and emotional abuse of his subordinates, including former high-ranking Church executives. who were removed from the Church by Miscavige. This information was also reported on in The St Petersburg Times series of articles (collectively titled "Inside Scientology: The Truth Rundown"). In that same issue senior Church executives stated and sent signed affidavits that the allegations where completely false and those making the allegations were the ones that had abused staff and were removed from the Church for this and their other maleficence. Miscavige also wrote a letter to the St. Petersburg times one day prior to the first story, saying: "I have been advised that you have decided to move forward with your story without my interview. This, despite the fact confirmed more than three weeks ago that I would make myself available on a date certain (6 July), after you spoke to other relevant Church personnel and toured Church facilities, and that I would provide information annihilating the credibility of your sources including the fundamental crimes against the Scientology religion that were the reasons for their removal from post. I am at a loss to comprehend how the St. Petersburg Times can publish a story about me and the religion I lead without accepting the offer to speak with me, on the pretense that you cannot wait until after I have fulfilled my religious commitments." The editors replied: "The Times first requested an interview with Mr. Miscavige on May 13, and offered to meet with him in person, or interview him by telephone at any time since." 4389:"Scientology Mexico is the fifth new Ideal Organization of Scientology to open in 2010. On January 23 this year, the Brussels branch of Churches of Scientology for Europe was opened in Belgium; the Church of Scientology of Quebec was dedicated January 30; the Church of Scientology & Celebrity Centre of Las Vegas opened February 6; and the new Church of Scientology of Los Angeles opened April 24. In the past three years, new Churches of Scientology have opened in world cultural centers, including: the Founding Church of Scientology in Washington D.C.; the Church of Scientology of Rome, Italy; the Church of Scientology of Malmo, Sweden; the National Church of Scientology of Spain, in Madrid's Neighborhood of Letters; the Church of Scientology of New York, just off Times Square; the Church of Scientology of San Francisco, in the original historic Transamerica Building; the Church of Scientology of London, at the city's epicenter; the Church of Scientology of Berlin, near the Brandenburg Gate; the Church of Scientology Las Vegas, Nevada; the Church of Scientology Nashville, Tennessee; and the Church of Scientology of Dallas, Texas. Another seven new Churches of Scientology are scheduled for completion before the end of 2010. Worldwide, there are more than 8,500 Scientology Organizations, Missions and affiliated groups in 165 countries." 6685:

org coverage is basic, yes, but it should be expanded. The space dedicated to the subject of ideal orgs should be directly proportional to its value to David Miscavige's leadership and the church. I don't think it would hurt to include the list; on the other hand, I believe it would enhance the article. The editors at Monson's page have not objected to the list of church dedications because its inclusion in the page is not objectionable. I don't understand why you would be staunchly against the inclusion of ideal orgs openings and redidications on this page, but be quite okay that a similar list exists on another page. There is a bias present there; and if I am right, such bias works against the neutrality that we all strive for as editors. Also, removing the ideal orgs list works against WP:DUE WEIGHT. There are plenty of reliable sources that contain information about Ideal Orgs openings. It is written in Knowledge: "The reliability of a source can help you judge the weight to give the opinions of that source. The more reliable the source, the more weight you should give its opinion." Are your saying that we should ignore all the reliable sources that report on these church openings? That doesn't make sense.

cities in which they occur. (By the way, is it misleading to call these "new churches"?--many of them are just remodeled premises for existing "orgs," such as the one in Los Angeles.) If there is some content of great import about the ideal org program that is missing in the article, please propose it, but the list just takes up space and distracts from the readability of the article. (I'd cut some of those dedications on the Thomas Monson page, too, were I interested in that article.) Basically, I think the ideal org coverage we have now is fine, though very basic. If someone wants to wade into the claims and counter-claims that revolve around them, as was suggested earlier in the discussion, that could add to the depth, but I worry about getting lost in a flurry of is-so is-not with these scientology public relations disputes. Same is true of "the Basics" and The Golden Age of Tech. The most conspicuous omission here is the Super Power Building, which has been a centerpiece of Miscavige's campaigns within Scientology for a decade or more, hasn't it? We don't mention that at all. --

think their heroics are any part of the story, and the improbability of the fact that "... in a biography of a leader of a world religion we have a fight scene..." is exactly the reason to include it (or at least one such description, whether it comes from Hawkins or somebody else) in the article. This is very unusual behavior in a religious leader, especially since it seems to be a routine part of his management style. It isn't merely he said/she said gossip... multiple high-profile journalistic sources have investigated the accounts of Miscavige physically abusing his underlings and found them to be credible. Arguably, this material deserves to be weighted even more heavily in the article: I think it is fair to say that Miscavige as a public figure is best known for unflattering allegations, most of which his spokespeople deny--enforced separation of families, physical and emotional abuse of Sea Org members, high-pressure sales on "public" members, harassment of church critics. When he's in the news, it's almost always about that kind of stuff. Look at the article on

3524:

Not so--these phrases were the conclusions of the author of the article, not citations of claims by defectors. Other things, like adding "controversial" to "Miscavige has been faced with controversial press accounts" is both factually dubious (other than the fact that the CoS objects to them, what is controversial about this large group of press reports?) and the opposite of concise prose--it tosses in an unneeded adjective, with the effect of muddying the meaning of the sentence. I am willing to assume good faith on your part, Nestle, but your proposal comes across as interested in blunting the negative reports that have consistently dogged Miscavige and Scientology, and does not seem to be in service of concise, accurate, npov prose. I suggest that if there is something in particular that you object to in the article, you highlight that on the talk page, rather than offering large rewritten sections--you will be more likely to get a reaction and some cooperation from others. --

information multimedia displays describing all aspects of Dianetics and Scientology, Founder L. Ron Hubbard, and the Church's social betterment and community outreach programs. Religious services are provided in distraction-free and aesthetic course rooms and spiritual counseling rooms. There are also libraries, bookstores, film and seminar rooms and expansive Chapels for Sunday services, weddings, naming ceremonies and other congregational gatherings. From 2003 through the beginning of 2011, twenty-four Ideal Churches have arisen, including those in the world's cultural capitals—the National Church of Scientology of Spain in Madrid's Neighborhood of Letters; the Church of Scientology of New York, just off Times Square; the Church of Scientology of San Francisco, California, in the original historic Transamerica Building; the Church of Scientology of London, England, located in the epicenter of the city; and the Church of Scientology of Berlin, Germany, near the Brandenburg Gate.

word "attended"; in context, it is reasonable to interpret the intended meaning of the relevant sentences is that a crowd of approximately (not exactly) 10,000 Scientologists (possibly including a few non-scientologists, too) attended this event and cheered Miscavige's announcement for over 10 minutes. 3. Two editors weighed in to specify that in this context, "summoned" could reasonably be re-stated as "attended." 4, The NY Time4s article was cited three times in the sentences just before the part you cut. 5. There are no sources of which I am aware that dispute or doubt any of these claims. 6. The change you proposed is actually very minor, not an inflammatory BLP issue. (Nor, in my view, was it a problem at all, though the article does have real problems, including that garbled Jeff Hawkins business discussed above.) 7.Yet, you dug in and insisted with great vigor and stubborness. At least that's how it looked to me. --

1883:, especially those expelled or excommunicated by members of a religion, has been the subject of several studies. Bryan R. Wilson, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus at Oxford University and former President of the International Society for the Sociology of Religion, did such a study and found that apostates are in particular informants whose evidence has to be used with circumspection. The apostate is generally in need of self-justification. He seeks to reconstruct his own past, to excuse his former affiliations and his own transgressions while part of the religion and to blame those who were formerly his closest associates. Not uncommonly the apostate learns to rehearse an 'atrocity story' to explain how he remained within an organization that he now forswears and condemns. Apostates, sensationalized by the press, have sometimes sought to make a profit from accounts of their experiences in stories sold to newspapers or tabloid media." 2740:"Questionable sources are those with a poor reputation for checking the facts, or with no editorial oversight. Such sources include websites and publications expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, or promotional in nature, or which rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions. Questionable sources are generallyunsuitable for citing contentious claims about third parties, which includes claims against institutions, persons living or dead, as well as more ill-defined entities." Also, in WP:NOTGOSSIP, we read, Opinion pieces: Although some topics, particularly those concerning current affairs and politics, may stir passions and tempt people to "climb soapboxes" (for example, passionately advocate their pet point of view), Knowledge is not the medium for this. Articles must be balanced to put entries, especially for current events, in a reasonable perspective, and represent a neutral point of view. 6092:

anything I think the article understates the press accounts of Miscavige--little or nothing about the Time and LA Times exposés in the early 90s, the BBC Panorama shows, 60 minutes on the Cult Awareness Network takeover under Miscavige, the Australian lawsuits and television coverage of Sea Org children held prisoner, Debbie Cook's recent testimony about Miscavige's physical and mental abuses, the details about MIscavige in the books by ex-members including Jefferson Hawkins, Amy Scobee and Marc Headley, etc. I'm all for presenting the story in a neutral, factually accurate and appropriately weighted manner, but in terms of "critical" material, I think it may actually be underrepresented in the article at this point. Interested ion your perspective Nestle, as well as that of Coffeeepusher and anyone else who has followed the press about David Miscavige. --

2451:

he runs a "Mafia-like" "cult," and innumerable sources have published similarly damning reports--this is extraordinary, hardly the sort of press coverage typical for corporate or religious leaders, and that fact needs to be reflected here. (There is another strain of articles of the "kooky celebrities practicing wacky religion" type, which I think we can all agree is of little relevance here.) On the other hand (please correct me if I'm wrong), the great majority of the "presentation of positive Miscavige" seems to have emanated from sources that Miscavige himself directly influences. (While I don't know the ins and outs of wikipedia policy on this, a newspaper or website reprinting a press release does not suddenly makes the claims in that release reliable in the same way that fact-checked independent journalism or scholarship is.) --

3597:

criminal or unethical behavior, mind-control, harassment of critics and abuse of church members. Right? The only article by a credible source (i.e., not some arm of Scientology) that was somewhat sympathetic to Miscavige that I've seen was the profile in the SP Times from 1998. It would be good to mention other sources than the SP Times and Time--LA Times, BBC, ABC News, etc.--but I'm not prepared to spend the time to work out all of the citations. I will go in and see if I can shorten it a bit, though, which may make room for adding a few other issues (I think Lisa McPhearson and "disconnection" have bothe received a lot of press attention and deserve mention here) without seeming to pile on Miscavige with mountains of detail about critical charges. I'll make a stab at a small edit shortly. --

1832:"As ecclesiastical leader of the Scientology religion, David Miscavige has devoted himself to making the Scripture of the Scientology religion accessible to all. For a quarter century, he ceaselessly advanced L. Ron Hubbard's intention to provide the writings and lectures on Dianetics and Scientology in all languages worldwide. With Hubbard's works on the mind and spirit comprising 18 million written words and 2,500 recorded lectures, the codification, restoration, translation and publishing of these works was daunting. But by the close of 2009, the 25-year undertaking to restore all Dianetics and Scientology materials was completed and for the first time the entire body of Scientology Scripture is available in the exact chronology in which the material was originally delivered by Hubbard." 7493:

LRH'S writings, the church openings, and that the allegations against Miscavige have never been proven. This information is just as important and pivotal to Miscavige's leadership as the controversies. It also represents a balanced and neutral perspective of Miscavige, rather than focusing solely on the allegations. I'd also like to emphasize that I have not excluded the information that mentions the allegations in media so the revised paragraph still covers the significant section of "Media Coverage and Criticism," and still acknowledges the fact that these allegations have been reported in media. I do acknowledge, however, that while media has covered the controversy, none have been proven and are thus baseless allegations and there have been no prosecutions or official investigations.

6649:'s BLP. Ideal Org openings are one of the most important initiatives of David Miscavige and should be recorded in his Knowledge page as such. To say that this is not an article about the Ideal Orgs is also a moot point. I am not suggesting that the whole article be about the Ideal Orgs, only to acknowledge the Ideal Orgs in the mentioned section because it is directly related and wholly important to David Miscavige as a church leader. As I said, if church openings in the Mormon church are important enough to be listed in Thomas Monson's profile, then it MUST be listed in Miscavige's BLP. I stand by my proposition to include the full information about the Ideal Orgs on this page. Would also like to solicit the comment of other editors on this matter as well. Thanks. 2527:"In May 2010, Mark Rathbun stated in press interviews that Miscavige had ordered that Cruise's auditing sessions. According to Rathbun, Miscavige would read out information from the reports about Cruise's auditing sessions. Another former high-ranking Scientologist, Amy Scobee, when asked about Tom Cruise's confessional files, stated it was Miscavige's habit to discuss celebrity confessionals with anyone who happened to be around including herself. Rathbun said he ceased the filming of Cruise in 2002, because he felt it was unethical. The Church of Scientology has stated that taping of such auditing sessions is done openly, for monitoring and training purposes, and that the confidentiality of anything discussed in them is "sacrosanct"." 2087: 8845:) and elsewhere that the LAPD undeniably refused to answer any questions about their meeting with Shelly Miscavige. Nothing whatsoever is known about her living conditions. Scientology hasn't revealed anything. tonyortega.org is not a personal blog, but a serious journalistic effort, in a time when many print journalists are willing to give Scientology a free pass. He has written online about Scientology for many years, and has thousands of critical readers per day. I don't see why Tony Ortega would lie about the LAPD refusing to answer his questions, which is the only claim for the link source deleted by Merrymoo112. 6494:

about many witnesses who have come forward to testify about Miscavige's physical abuses--hasn't Mike Rinder said that Miscavige hit him on more than fifty occasions?. The article is also missing some very big news stories about Miscavige, including the Debbie Cook email/lawsuit/court testimony and Lawrence Wright's New Yorker article. The Stacy Brooks line, which is basically there to demonstrate that people have been alleging that Miscavige is abusive for many years, seems pretty minor, so I don't feel strongly either way about preserving it, but I think that decision should come as part of a larger rewrite. --

2394:"Inside Scientology: The Truth Rundown" was recognized with journalistic honors, including the 2010 Gold Medal for Public Service award from the Florida Society of News Editors, and was a finalist for the 2010 National Headliner Awards in the category of investigative reporting. The series was cited as a basis for subsequent journalistic investigations, including a weeklong series hosted on the CNN network by Anderson Cooper. In both cases, Miscavige and the Church of Scientology executives cite unreliable sources being used for the articles, sources who had admitted lying to the St. Petersburg Times and BBC. 2384:

physical and emotional abuse of his subordinates, including high-ranking Church executives.") Additionally, the quotes substantiate a point already made. This creates a lengthy and redundant counterpoint. I propose making this section more WP:NPOV by making the section a bit more general (and better focused on the existing information within the "Media Coverage and Criticism" section and removing a significant portion of the "Reports of Abuse" section). I've retained the information found in Mr. Miscavige's letter to the St. Petersburg Times, along with The Times response, as this is pivotal to the whole issue:

3877:

probably deserves its own paragraph. Both the Anderson Cooper series and the New Yorker article were very high-profile press accounts that focused on Scientology under Miscavige, so I think both deserve attention here. The paragraph currently following the Hawkins quote is devoted to Scientology's denial of these claims... I have no objection to including a specific denial of a specific claim, but there's really no point including "Scientology spokespersons say this is a lie" after every account of Miscavige's behavior. They certainly don't do that in teh SP Times article you linked to above.

3831:

accounts ever to focus on Miscavige (and he devoted an issue of Freedom magazine to attacking Cooper for it), so that seems like a reasonable addition to the article (though we should avoid "piling on" with every article or claim about Miscavige--a few well-chosen examples will do). It might make sense to look for some third party discussion of the CNN series, or maybe a comment by Anderson Cooper--we should not leave the impression that the press coverage indicates that the ex-wives put forward to speak on behalf of the church are reliable sources in these matters, as it does not. --

dismissed on June 27, 1983." In WP: NPOV, we find, "neutrality requires that each article or other page in the mainspace fairly represents all significant viewpoints that have been published by reliable sources, in proportion to the prominence of each viewpoint." In the interest of NPOV and UNDUE WEIGHT, I believe there is a need to substantiate this "written statement" in order to "fairly represent" this significant viewpoint. Furthermore, the statement preceding the one above in the article is potentially defamatory and could be neutralized with additional information.

Québec and Las Vegas while overseeing the opening of the Churches of Scientology for Europe in Brussels. Two months later, in April 2010, Miscavige presided over the opening of the new Los Angeles Church. While in July 2010, he cut the ribbon on another three new Ideal Churches: in Mexico City; Pasadena, California; and Seattle, Washington. More recently, in January 2011, Mr. Miscavige presided over the Grand Opening of Australia's first Ideal Church of Scientology in Melbourne and on March 13th 2011 he opened the new Church of Scientology in Ybor City in Tampa Florida.

2802:"The reliability and verifiability of sources depends onWikipedia's trust of news agencies policies of fact-checking, reliability, and accuracy. Thus Knowledge should follow/trust the conclusion of news sources about the reliability of their own articles and statements. If an agency alerts readers that a certain article or conjecture is not reliable, or does not meet its standards of verifiability, I don't think it should meet Knowledge's standards of "verifiability" despite its publication by a reliable source. EMbargo145 (talk) 08:22, 11 May 2011 (UTC)" 1443:. Seems there’s plenty of points for revision here, where the article doesn’t conform to the Manual of Style. I find it questionable that the first two paragraphs serve as a “concise overview of the article. ” Right after the sentence that ends with “illegal and unethical practices”, we find a factoid that begins with “A 1991 Time Magazine cover story…” Is it noteworthy to include this sentence, when it refers to an interview that was made 20 years ago? It also does not, in anyway, contribute to an encompassing overview of the article. 2696:

Davie would have already sent some lawyers to straighten it out (the church has a reputation for dealing with legal matters efficiently). And it is not Gossip because it has a source, that source has been checked out by the reliable sources and they have chosen to report on it. Additionally it has world wide reproduction (published in several languages) so it is also not inconsequential, it is a widely reported story which has such an impact both Davie and the church responded to it and has consequence for both organizations.

entire thing yet.) The recantation seems to be about testifying as an expert about things of which she did not have first hand experience. That said, the affidavit (again, assuming it is genuine) does seem to compromise her credibility. There are lots of others who have testified to Miscavige's sadistic treatment of his underlings, so at this point I wouldn't object to pulling her out of the article and looking for a substitute to document how long such charges have been raised. Anybody else have a thought on this? --

5798:

reliable sources check out, it has been given the correct amount of weight (as shown above) and in this case we have someone who is an executive from the church of Scientology giving us a quote...one which makes the incident even more interesting because it wasn't the stock "nothing happened, nothing to see here" denial but rather gave some interesting details showing that COB was attacked by an SP inside a board meeting. the entire ordeal is reported by multiple sources and sourced from at least two different interviews.

Ron Hubbard set for Scientologists—to one day create Churches that were the physical embodiment of Scientology technology to help all beings attain spiritual freedom. 3953:

This is the statement of one person, and has not been corroborated by anybody, but on the contrary many dispute it -- such as church executive David Bloomberg, Hawkins' wife, etcetera. To record this would be a tedious he said, she said, that disturbs the quality of the whole article. Also, Hawkins' statement may have been published online, but he is himself a source that is questionable. We have forgone NPOV in the interest of a faulty application of WP:RS. I move that this section be removed.

accounts of life inside scientology. She did NOT recant the statement in our article, or anything related to it. Evidently she had testified that she didn't know about certain business arrangements in her post-scientology life running the "Lisa McPherson Trust," and she recanted that testimony, admitting that she did know about those things--an agreement about where proceeds from a lawsuit would be donated, a question about whether phone calls were made from a lawyer's office. That's it.

7088:. (I have posted it as a counterstatement to better this section) In the interest of neutrality, brevity and based on WP:SPECULATION, I therefore propose that the whole section about Shelly Miscavige being "missing" be removed from this BLP.

see the detail that you inserted on the source you cited (The Tampabay article): " it has been the centerpiece of Church of Scientology fundraising campaigns for more than a decade, having reportedly attracted donations in excess of 147 million dollars" so I am taking it off. I have added a couple more details, like the fact that it is called the "Mecca" of Scientology and that ribbon-cutting and dedication ceremony are planned later this year, as the St. Pete Times reports.

brevity. For example, the idea behind "Numerous former Scientologists have alleged that Miscavige has engaged in a pattern of physical and emotional abuse of his subordinates, including high-ranking Church executives" is repeated in the first sentence of the "reports of abuse" section.

It is a moot point whether his statements were published in high profile sources or not, when the ultimate source of the information, Rathbun himself, is not reliable. The portion in the Media Coverage and Criticism section that starts with, "According to Rathbun, Miscavige is.." should be removed as well along with the Hawkins edit, allowing for a greater neutrality, brevity and due weight. Thoughts? 1449:“While consideration should be given to creating interest in reading more of the article, the lead nonetheless should NOT "tease" the reader by hinting at—but not explaining—important facts that will appear later in the article.

the St. Petersburg Times. The St. Petersburg Times reported, "Miscavige says he plans to step forward now and take a central role in trying to end differences with those who still oppose Scientology," describing Clearwater, Florida, as the scene of ³possibly the last long-running conflict² for Scientology. Later that year, he appeared in an A&E Investigative Reports installment called "Inside Scientology" which aired in December.

lectures and to expand the Scientology religion by opening new Churches around the world. Despite allegations of illegal and unethical practices in the press, sourced to expelled Church members, there have been no legal cases or investigations that have proven any wrong doing on the part of Miscavige or the Church. Miscavige along with senior church management and spokespeople have consistently denied the former members' allegations.

remodled facilities in many countries. The qualities of PR puffery in that section and Miscavige's remarks are obvious, aren't they?: "We come to a new inscription on the tablet of Italian history... a pledge to bring our help and the infinite wisdom of L. Ron Hubbard’s technology to this region,” etc., plus the long list of Italian dignitaries in attendance. Even with that cut, this section could stand further trimming. --

This article was comprised from four interviews of Scientology defectors including Mike Rinder, former director of the organization's Office of Special Affairs who for years had been the official spokesperson for Scientology, and Mark Rathbun, who worked closely with Miscavige for many years, serving as Inspector General of the Religious Technology Center before leaving the organization in 2004.

Her whereabouts and health are all speculations, but the fact that she is (in normal parlance) missing, is not.

third-party reliable sources that have covered Miscavige will confirm that the "controversies" are usually the central focus of their coverage of him and that virtually all reliable sources (Time Magazine, New Yorker, BBC, Los Angeles Times, St. Petersburg Times, CNN, etc.) that have reported on the many allegations against the church and Miscavige have concluded that many of those accounts are credible. --

7943:. Isn't describing DM as the leader of Scientology like describing the Pope as leader of Christianity? He and his followers may well regard him as the leader of Scientology, but there are other people who regard themselves as Scientologists but don't regard him as their leader. Would it not be more accurate and neutral to describe him as the leader of the Church of Scientology, as the text originally said? 8080:

the COS, he is also de facto the head of ABLE int, which again own all the above mentioned organizations. I am against adding the "... and affiliated organizations" though, as it might be taken to include the various FreeZone and Indie groups. If we want to ad anything about COS' groups, it should be something to the effect of "... and groups under the COS' control" or something to that effect.

5997:

pretty repetitive and works against the brevity and concision of the page. My first proposition would be to remove the mention of the press accounts (second paragraph) from the lead and push the "Early Life" section to the second paragraph of the lead. Or, alternately we could move the second paragraph of the lead to the first paragraph of the "Media Coverage" section, replacing what is there.

The main sources for this paragraph - Village Voice, MSN Entertainment New Zealand, Popeater, ninemsn - are all opinion, tabloid news sources. What was published was Marty Rathbun’s opinion, and unfounded allegation. Please see a discussion here on Knowledge’s stance on tabloid journalism:

these events, and if we remove the mere mention of the Ideal Org openings because there is no explicit connection to Miscavige, we must also acknowledge the progressive work that he has spearheaded by including information on his direct involvement on these openings. I've added this edit because it mentions an important Org opening and highlights Miscavige's direct involvement in it. Thanks.

I am unsure why I am being accused of being a Shutterbug "sock puppet", when I was never aware of this case until you recently mentioned it. There is no evidence that can be presented to prove your claim. This comes across as provocative and is not what I would expect after reading 6568:"In the rededication of the new Ideal Org in Orange County in June 2012, Miscavige declared, "We come to the first momentous page of this church's new history. Needless to say, it's not a tide of history on which one merrily floats. On the contrary, it must be a history unlike any ever told before, a history of supreme competence, great passion and perfect adherence to our technology." 1177: 598: 7834:).

Frankly, a denial by the Church Of Scientology and Miscavige or Cruise should just plain be ignored, after all they all deny the 1355:, Miscavige also goes to movies, enjoys trail biking in Hillsborough County, has been known to ride a water scooter, plays piano, takes underwater photographs, reads several books a week, exercises daily and keeps a casual eye on his hometown sports teams from Philadelphia.

6614:, has a whole section dedicated to his role in dedicating LDS churches. Both Miscavige and Monson are religious leaders, and church dedications are important to both. Why would we allow the listing of the dedication of LDS churches on Monson's page, yet remove it in Miscavige's page? Thus, I have posted a revised version of this section along with additional third-party references. 3667:, which favors "opinionated reviews and columns." Village Voice is an example of an "alternative newspaper", and their related content contains strong bias. Posting this statement from Hawkins does nothing to enhance the article; on the contrary it harms the NPOV of the page by giving too much weight and real estate to a statement that was published in an unreliable source. Thanks. 3490:

mentioned how “The Truth Rundown” relied too heavily on a small sample of detractors, did not interview David Miscavige directly, avoided documented evidence showcasing unreliability of Scientology detractors, did not reach out to the numerous first-person accounts of Scientologists for corroboration, and reveals their version of events in working with the St. Petersburg Times.

5821:: I'm not saying Miscavige and Jeffs are alike, except in the sense in which press accounts (and in Jeffs' case, legal proceedings) that focus on allegations that followers of each man would deny, justify or relegate to the margins of their story are a dominant part of their lives as public figures. For better or worse, those press accounts shape Knowledge articles. -- 5197:@BT: Feel free to add those claims to the article, but please provide the sources. Before you wrote this edit above we did not have a source that confirmed the claims I removed. I do not understand why it is inexplicable to you that people remove unsourced statements on a BLP, especially when the reference that was used does not confirm the claims made in the article. 5588:

About due weight, the "Media Coverage and criticism" section in itself is comprehensive and is a considerable portion of the whole article. The Hawkins bit does not enhance the section, on the contrary it makes it more convoluted.

There is also a whole section about Miscavige's involvement in the Church expansion and the opening of new Churches which must be represented in a lede that provides a true overview of the page. Why merely focus on the "media coverage and criticism" section when there exists equally covered material on the page?

Given recent edits on the Page, the age of this information, editors on this page pushing for more neutrality and the presentation of positive Miscavige when compared to negative information on the BLP, it makes sense to make "Reports of Abuse" a bit more concise (to avoid WP: UNDUE).

I still disagree with the "affiliated organizations" part -- I won't push the matter, but just to illustrate, this implies Miscavige is not only the leader of the Church of Scientology, but also of Applied Scholastrics, Narconon, CCHR, etc. Legally he has nothing to do with those organizations, even

Let's get real, Hawkins makes Miscavige sound like a cross between Bruce Lee and Superman. We have one incident with opposite sides to the story.

Far as I'm concerned, that change is not OK. Miscavige as a public figure--as judged by independent press accounts--is known for being embroiled in charges of impropriety. That is not a marginal or trivial aspect of his biography, it's a major one. I'd say this needs to be set out more clearly in

Hello BTfromLA. I agree with you that the Hawkins section is a mess, and does need improvement.

Stretching this section gives undue weight to it, and substantiates a claim that has not even been proven.

My 2¢: "were summoned" and "attended" don't always mean the same thing, but in the context of the source, it is clearly implied that all or most of that number did in fact attend. ( Also, the 10-minute ovation is clearly described as such in the source, though the word "standing" isn't there.)

I am restoring the section that lists the Ideal Orgs that Miscavige rededicated. The removal of the section on the new Ideal Orgs opening is a move against the overall NPOV of the page. Ideal Orgs openings are important events in David Miscavige's leadership. He is fully engaged and primarily

From the same source of the edit on the page - Tampabay.com - we can see that Rathbun's credibility as a witness is questionable. First of all, he admits to committing the same crimes that they accuse Miscavige of doing. Furthermore, Rathbun was arrested for "disturbing the peace" and "public

you see, there is a huge difference between your version in which Bloomberg simply says that "Miscavadge didn't touch Hawkings" and the other version where he says that there was a physical altercation where Hawkings ended up on the ground grappling with Miscavadge but "Miscavige didn't touch

I suggest the lengthy explanation about "roles" requires good RS sources - which are not given. All that counts is Hubbard is dead, Miscavige isn't, and the theology is not to be altered by Miscavige. All of which does not require the explanation given before (which I found to be less than

8904:. That part isn't negotiable. Adding controversial material about living people (and Miscavige is both living and controversial) requires extra care and attention, and needs to be backed up by reliable sources. The point about the LAPD, relatively minor though it is, falls under this policy. 8785:

I think it's important that the article point out that nothing is known about Shelly Miscavige's current condition. According to all sources I was able to find online, neither Scientology or the LAPD will answer any questions about her present situation, other than that she is not deceased.

6549:

Sorry, Nestle, but I cut all of that material plus some more: there is simply no justification for listing every single new church in his biographical article. It just reads like promotional material, and really doesn't tell us anything about Miscavige to know that an "ideal org" opened in

3) Lastly, I also wanted to suggest removing the quotation marks in “lying” in the sentence “Miscavige and other church spokespeople have denied these allegations, saying the sources quoted in the St. Petersburg Times are "lying". I believe that this also diminishes the NPOV of the article.

I appreciate your comment on this, BTfromLA. The definition of "reliable sources" always leaves room for discussion, and I am apt to say that there are sources that have a clear bias and harm NPOV for the sake of relying on WP:RS -- thus violating one of Knowledge's core content policies.

The new New Yorker article states that "According to Rinder and Brousseau, in June, 2006, while Miscavige was away from the Gold Base, his wife, Shelly, filled several job vacancies without her husband’s permission. Soon afterward, she disappeared. Her current status is unknown."

I removed the claim of solitary confinement, and you're welcome to change the caption further using content from the article on The Hole. I'm not completely convinced that the picture should be in the article, although Miscavige is closely linked to several notable events there.

Why should we give Hawkins' statement so much weight and how does thismmake the article better overall? I don't believe it does. If we cannot agree on neutralizing this bit of information, I think it is best to restore the article to its previous content and not include it at all.

I think you underestimate the problems with Coffeepusher's revert of my edit. Please, do what I did, read the source and try to confirm the claims made in the article. Of course you'll find that these claims are not in the source that was used, which is why I removed them.

Instead of shaving down the next paragraph, I have simplified the Scientology side to include only the important part of the statement of Bloomberg, which is the only thing needed to giving both sides a fair say. This is in the interest of straightforwardness and brevity.

Ah. Then perhaps we should spell Movement with a lower-case m. :) Let's look at shortening this paragraph though. What Mayo taught, and what happened in 1992 in Italy, is not relevant to Miscavige's BLP – or if it is, the relevance is not apparent. The founding of the AAC

I'd also like to bring up a third point: this section is of ephemeral or marginal interest. It is an insignificant allegation that was made at some point in time, never proven, and has little consequence to David Miscavige as a religious leader and as a man.

I have been trying to brainstorm ways to make this section a bit more NPOV and I didn't want to make the changes prior to having discussed with other editors. Here's what I have so far:

In light of this, I propose to add the following after the sentence starting with "Hubbard denied this in a written statement..." and before "The case was dismissed...":

This full section not only heavily highlights specific information that in no way summarizes the full content of the article, it also skews the article towards non-NPOV.
