Spelling?!
[edit]The spelling "Rerikhism" would appear to be a strange bastardized hybrid form, which is neither one thing nor the other -- neither a transliteration of the Russian Cyrillic (that would be "Rerikhizm"), nor based on the actual original Latin-alphabet spelling of the man's name ("Roerichism"). If this were my religion, I might be offended... -- AnonMoos (talk) 06:36, 11 February 2019 (UTC)
Thank You, Sir

Roerichism & Agni Yoga articles recent review
[edit]Hello Leništudent, Agoyga and Dr Ama7 and thank you for your extensive work on the articles "Roerichism" and "Agni Yoga". I have recently reviewed these articles, and I have found many problems. I have tried to fix some of them but I feel that the articles still need a lot of improvement.
First of all, there were many English grammatical mistakes; I have fixed all of them, or those which I have been able to find. Second, there were various links to YouTube and Facebook used as sources; YouTube and Facebook are not reliable sources and they must not be used in Wikipedia articles. Third, the "accessdate" parametre is totally unuseful and clutter and can be avoided. Fourth, there were many inconsistencies in the use of bold, italic and "quotation marks"; italic should be used for non-English words, while quotation marks to emphasise English words, and bold should not be used in articles' body.
Fifth, and general, the citation style is very confuse. I have not verified all the sources, but they should always cite the specific page where the information is reported, when available. I suggest to compile a list of sources in a "sources" section at the bottom of the page (see Roerichism#Sources) and then use the Template:Sfn in the article's body. This simplifies the citation style and the access to the original information.
Good work.--Aethelwolf Emsworth (talk) 15:00, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
