Shortcut WP:THELEMA

The scope of this project is to expand, improve, and standardize articles about Thelema and other related topics, such as Aleister Crowley, Magick, Thelemic orders (like O.T.O. and A∴A∴), important books, and notable Thelemic personalities.

Here are some things that members may choose to do...

1. Put the Thelema Task Box on your user page: {{thelemabox}}
2. Join in peer reviews, discussions and debates
3. Edit this page and the Thelema Task Box to keep info up to date
4. And of course, help write, expand, and clean up Thelema-related articles!

• Flesh out the stubs
• The Crowley library needs to be completed. See: Works of Aleister Crowley
• We need bios of important Thelemites and related individuals, many of which are missing or stubs See: List of Thelemites
• Assist in assessment of our articles at Wikipedia:WikiProject Thelema/Assessment.
• Many Thelema-related articles need references and citations
• Add all articles to the Wikipedia:WikiProject Thelema/Articles list, so that they can be checked for recent changes

• Marjorie Cameron

• Aleister Crowley
• Kenneth Grant
• Wilfred Talbot Smith

1. Write for the newcomer. Do not assume knowledge in your readers.
2. Draw from the literature. Use verifiable sources for your edits, and cite them. Avoid personal opinion and original research.
3. Stay neutral. Avoid pro and con arguments regarding topics like Crowley and OTO. Stick to the facts. When things are vague, be ready to compromise. Also, when discussing points of doctrine, do not present them as fact...provide context for said beliefs.
4. Present various viewpoints. It is okay to offer different and even opposing viewpoints. However, instead of presenting every viewpoint in every paragraph, or worse, avoiding viewpoints until the topic is watered down to meaninglessness, it is best to offer discrete viewpoints within their own sections. However, be sure that these viewpoints are actually verifiable. Don't create a new section only because you have a differing opinion.
5. Attacking legitimacy or value. Do not bring into question the legitimacy of any group or belief unless it is verifiable and strictly relevant to the topic at hand. Also, do not use language that places a value on other religions or lifestyles.
6. Try to use standardized formats. If you are going to, say, write about one of Crowley's books, look over existing examples and use established formats.

Example:

The Feast for Fire is a ceremony within Thelema intended to celebrate the advent of puberty in males. It originally appeared in The Book of the Law (AL II:41), and was again mentioned in The Gnostic Mass, written by Aleister Crowley in 1913, although he did not write an actual ritual for it.

Example:

• "Every man and every woman is a star." (AL I:3)
• "I am alone: there is no God where I am." (AL II:23)
• "As brothers fight ye!" (AL III:59)
