Bill,
What you're attempting to do is not an easy undertaking. Citing sources and properly formatting them, as well as editing and updating the page is the equivalent of writing a college level research paper--or any such sort of research project. I took a look at these pages on sourcing, copy editing, and consensus, and although I agree this should probably be done, I also believe it isn't going to happen overnight. It's going to take a lot of work and fine tuning. Just understanding the proper way of doing things looks daunting. This is one reason Wikipedia has the respect it deserves--verifiable sources must be cited. I started looking into it and it gave me a headache just thinking about it. I would be more than happy to contribute to some of the editing, but sourcing and all that goes with it makes my head spin, and I've got a few too many things on my plate right now. There is quite a bit to be learned to make this work (at least for me). This is a real project. That doesn't mean you should give up though. I'm just pointing out a few of the hurdles.

Bill,
Don't know if this is the PMTR link you were referring to above, but it gets a hit almost daily (or more) on various search engines, so that should be a credible source. It's an extract from the book Pace Makes the Race, the Psychology of Winning chapter by Sartin: http://www.SartinMethodology.com/pub...inningPMTR.pdf I don't know much about the process of Wikipedia attributions, but I'll sure take a look. Ted
