Talk:Renovaré

Latest comment: 4 months ago by Surv1v4l1st in topic Neutrality of article.

There are no common accents in Latin. The word in question should correctly be spelled Renovare, without an accent. Actually it is just pronounced /rɛ.nɔ.va.rɛ/.

I think this should be settled.

"Renovaré" is of course the spelling promoted by the organization itself (see www.renovare.org). They don't claim it is Latin, but rather that it is "from the Latin". I think it's fair to recognize the name as a promotional construct along the lines of "Mötley Crüe" — the accent mark serves a purpose other than to guide pronunciation. In any case, it's their name, we should follow the spelling they use. Think Toys R Us or the Apple marketing campaign Think Different — it would be incorrect to convert these to "Toys Are Us" or "Think Differently" even as we recognize spelling and grammer inconsistencies. technopilgrim 02:23, 14 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

There was a critical link that was removed because "they make subjective, biased judgements about organizations. They believe Renovare is theologcally (sic) dangerous." Nearly all religious groups, movements, theological schools of thought, et al. have opposing views and their articles have links along those lines. Furthermore, Wikipedia policy is to have a balance of external links [1]. Without it we have only one position. I have reverted the removal of this link and also corrected the mistyped address for the video link. 71.92.157.186 (talk) 23:31, 10 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Neutrality of article.

edit

The article is really shaping up to be a good one. It's come a long way from being a stub.

However, I think we might want to consider a short, well-sourced, criticism section. Renovare, like just about any religious groups and movements, has garnered criticism. In the interest of neutrality, we should include this information. If know one cares to contribute, I will put a short section together. 66.191.19.68 (talk) 16:32, 6 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

The Criticism section, as is, is somewhat suspect. A single cite from an organization that appears to be little more than a website isn't particularly helpful. No objection to such a section, but this really should be improved or booted for now.--Surv1v4l1st TalkContribs 04:05, 27 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
Looking at this further, I don't see how the SSL-expired "Whatever is Pure" site is even remotely noteable. It has a few hit pieces on this organization and a book they don't like, a bio, and little else.--Surv1v4l1st TalkContribs 22:47, 29 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Article outdated

edit

This article is very outdated. I'm affiliated with Renovaré so I hesitate to edit the article itself. If Renovaré doesn't meet notability requirements perhaps this article can be deleted. If it does meet them we are happy to provide updated info to whoever maintains this page. Find contact info at renovare.org.

Personally, I am going to say that I think if you are adding objective and sourceable information and have read up on WP:NPOV, you are fine to update the page a bit. The article is fine with regards to WP:N, and I'll keep an eye on it to help you with WP:NPOV. Willthehelpfuleditor (talk) 16:32, 19 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

I believe it meets notability. However, it does need to updated, better sourced, and otherwise improved.--Surv1v4l1st TalkContribs 04:03, 27 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Study Bible

edit

The rather exhaustive study Bible produced by the organize likely warrants some inclusion. I'm not entirely sure where at this point though. Surv1v4l1st TalkContribs 04:13, 27 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
