No, as I've said, it's never appropriate to include or link your WP:OR unless it's been reviewed and published elsewhere. It's also not a good idea for someone else to link it if it just a personal web page not subject to review by anyone known to be a reliable source.

Put more relevant info into the article. The article really needs to say something about the scope of the project (5W's ?) like who started it, when, where is it, who runs it, what does it do, why it is important, etc. Dicklyon 15:18, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dick, thanks once again for your help and clarification. Would it be acceptable if I used the personal webpage only as a source of inspiration and place this (5W's) basic content on Wikipedia for others to scrutinize? This would mean rewriting part of the 60+ pages of the source webpage on Wikipedia Pvosta 15:35, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think that's the right idea. That way, anything you contribute will be part of the collaborative wiki system, so anyone who thinks you got it wrong, or said something not verifiable, will be easily able to weigh in with a change. If nobody contests it, then it's a semi-permanent part of wikipedia and the dozens of other sites that clone the content. If someone think you're putting your own WP:OR into the wikipedia, on the other hand, and you can't provide a verifiable source, they will be justified in removing it. You'll pick up the game. You probably shouldn't try to put it all in at once, and see how it goes. Dicklyon 21:33, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
