 | This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints. |
 | This page in a nutshell: What Wikipedia won't do is pretend that the work of "lunatic charlatans", as they were described by Jimmy Wales, is the equivalent of "true scientific discourse". It isn't. |
If science rejects your favoured alternative therapy, Wikipedia is not the place to fix it. This principle is illustrated by the saga of the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology's petition to Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales.
