Back to wikipedia article: Has anyone thought about removing all references to non UK jedi church related webpages, make the Jediism article about the UK Jedi church, rename that article (currently called Jediism) to Church of Jediism Limited, then the next time the media is onto them for driving at lightspeed on the motorway or some other stupid thing, we bombard that media with requests to make it clear that their organization is not linked to Jediism.

By the Way, Steve Ford is on that page... Dunno what his feelings were about the uk church ltd, but someone ought to protect the memory of the dead.

I too, saw Master Steve's photo....

It was an article on his brother's wedding that Steve presided over....

On that link to the story, there was a link to TOTJO....

I looked for anything derogatory about him or TOTJO.....

I didn't see anything, so I figured it was fine... But I am not an authority.....

Also, ren, I like your previous idea... Maybe just have our own entry.... Jedi Order, Temple of the

On walk-about...

Jedi ain't Saints....

Do whatever you want - Wikipedia is all about contributions from everyone, just be aware Wikipedia requires reliable secondary sources and is moderated. The page can always be reverted back to a previous state.

Also, make sure it's reliable. We're not registered as Church of Jediism LTD, but Church of Jediism CYF. At least try to get it right. Oh wait, \"Do or do not - there is no try\" So, I guess you'll go for the latter \"do not\".

May the Force be with you,

This is why people don't want to associate with Jediism anymore. Idiots who can't read their own £$%^&$% website.

Jestor: That news article itself wasn't bad, it's the rest of the wiki article that is. I didn't like it when people turned my religion into something that should be associated with making legal threats to supermarkets and the jobcentre. Just a thought.

If you're suggesting I didn't read the website, that's just a laughable matter, seeing as I wrote the majority of it. Read the header. 'The Church of Jediism CYF'. As for that picture you posted on the other thread, Ren, I'm not sure if you know but Barney is actually an actor and that picture was taken whilst he was in a performance - he doesn't smoke and he is actually the nicest guy I know. Funny he's not a member of TOTJO, isn't it?

I'm also not sure if anyone has noticed but I donated $50 US to you guys on behalf of the COJ today. Enjoy.
