Since you have edited the section of the ARMA article dealing with the reviews of John Clements' books I will ask this question to you. Why are the books of John Clements allowed to be such a big issue in an article about the ARMA orgainzation? If a director of NASA wrote a book would the reviews of the book be an issue discussed in the article about NASA? Likewise, if a director of the CIA wrote a book would the reviews of the book be an issue discussed in the article about the CIA? I think all of the dicussions about Clements' books should be removed from the ARMA article. If this makes sense to you then I would ask that you remove that marterial.

== Text Books ==

Are you saying that these books are not ARMA's textbooks? If the material in the books is valid, it should be able to stand up to scrutiny in a public forum such as this. It's my understanding that these texts are part of the ARMA culture and are prominently displayed on the group's website. The material within the text does provide a solid point of factual debate and I think it is very relevant. It is much better than any criticisms based on some idealized truth or hearsay in any respect.

I am not sure I buy your argument that John Clements and ARMA are two unrelated topics. I have moved the book reviews and I'll keep editing to keep the article as fair as I can, but that is a two way street.

ARMA

Since you have edited the section of the ARMA article dealing with the reviews of John Clements' books I will ask this question to you. Why are the books of John Clements allowed to be such a big issue in an article about the ARMA orgainzation? If a director of NASA wrote a book would the reviews of the book be an issue discussed in the article about NASA? Likewise, if a director of the CIA wrote a book would the reviews of the book be an issue discussed in the article about the CIA? I think all of the dicussions about Clements' books should be removed from the ARMA article. If this makes sense to you then I would ask that you remove that marterial.

Text Books

Are you saying that these books are not ARMA's textbooks? If the material in the books is valid, it should be able to stand up to scrutiny in a public forum such as this. It's my understanding that these texts are part of the ARMA culture and are prominently displayed on the group's website. The material within the text does provide a solid point of factual debate and I think it is very relevant. It is much better than any criticisms based on some idealized truth or hearsay in any respect.

I am not sure I buy your argument that John Clements and ARMA are two unrelated topics. I have moved the book reviews and I'll keep editing to keep the article as fair as I can, but that is a two way street.
