Participants list

• Cdynas (talk · contribs)
• Clovermoss (talk · contribs)
• colliric (talk · contribs) — Minor cult critic, with some formal background in Religious Studies and Apologetics, based on a Catholic perspective. Studied Scientology's history, primarily as a further hobby, and feel I can provide some insight, in particular into their founder.
• darrenhusted (talk · contribs)
• David Gerard (talk · contribs) — never a Scientologist, Internet critic since 1995, apparently what passes for an expert [1]
• DENAMAX (talk · contribs)
• Entheta (talk · contribs) — Never in Scn. Critic since about two years.
• Foobaz (talk · contribs) 18:47, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
• Gitz6666 (talk · contribs)
• Glen (talk · contribs) — why not :)
• GoodDamon (talk · contribs) - I have no irons in this fire. I am neither a member nor a critic, and am interested in Scientology as an academic study.
• Grorp (talk · contribs) — All rounder. Trying to clean up after the 2009 ARBCOM decisions wiped out most participation and left many articles 'frozen in time' from pre-ARBCOM contentious editing. 00:23, 14 December 2025 (UTC)
• Hartley Patterson (talk · contribs)
• Kvinnen (talk · contribs)
• MartinPoulter (talk · contribs) — Interested in topics of religion and pseudoscience; PhD was in attachment to belief systems. Have been running a Scientology in the UK Media archive since 1995.
• Newbiepedian (talk · contribs) - I am an internet critic and have been labelled a suppressive person by the CoS in late March, and I am interested in the organisation, the various works, and the actual beliefs of Scientology. I also find the various communication and self-improvement courses quite useful, so I do not criticize the courses and beliefs of Scn as much as I criticize their leadership, their organisation, their human rights violations and the fact that the stuff they do isn't available for free.
• North8000 (talk · contribs) Thanks for the invitation. Happy to help where I can.
• PARAKANYAA (talk · contribs) 23:20, 13 December 2025 (UTC)
• Ronabop (talk · contribs) — I like the NPOV challenge of NRM's.
• Vivaldi (talk · contribs) — Besides picking scabs and collecting them in jars, studying Scientology and its abuses is one of my most interesting hobbies.

• Grandmasterka (talk · contribs) - I've edited several Scientology articles now, I might as well declare myself part of the project. I would best describe myself as a critic. NPOV is important. (changed username to something else)

• Marbahlarbs (talk · contribs) - Lifelong Scientologist, still practice as an "applied religious philosophy". Would like to work on making Scn articles as NPOV as possible, add information. Not a raving lunatic. I'm still pissed about penet.fi (hasn't edited since 2014)

• Misou (talk · contribs) - the amount of extreme POVs in regards the Scientology topics fascinates me, especially in view of so much unused and founded online information on most articles. Lots to edit, if time permits! (indef blocked in 2010)
• Mknjbhvgcf (talk · contribs) (hasn't edited since 2012)

• Orbal1 (talk · contribs) - Very experienced Corporate Church Scientologist (Lifetime IAS, Class IV auditor, etc.), now off-lines, but not Freezone either. It's a very interesting place to be "in-the-middle" - having full ARC/KRC with both 'sides.' (hasn't edited since 2016)
• Raeft (talk · contribs) - I am a Theology student and quite interested in religious studies and the advent of new perspectives. I'm a practicing Discordian, and will admit to that bias up front, but feel I can set aside those differences in favor of creating articles from a neutral point of view, and helping this project. Peace, all. (hasn't edited since 2014)

• Spackle_Motion (talk · contribs) - Long time Scientology critic. New to Wikipedia editing. (hasn't edited since 2013)
• Spidern (talk · contribs) - I have recently become very interested in this topic. Although I may be considered a critic, I am most concerned with cleaning up weasel words and POV issues (on both sides). Also concerning is the topic of WP:OR, and prevalent use of primary sources in some cases. (hasn't edited since 2009)
• Steve Dufour (talk · contribs) - I have never studied Scientology although I have had some contact with it. My main interest in the project is my concern that the present public hatred and contempt of Scientologists is potentially very dangerous, as was Anti-Masonry. (I may drop out of the project soon. I need to free up some time for career moves and besides it seems like the anti-Scientology fad is begining to "jump the shark", or the couch. :-) ) (hasn't edited since 2015)
• Taiwan_prepares (talk · contribs) - I am interested in Scientology's innovative use of intellectual property law as well as the First Amendment issues that are often implicated in their litigations. I'm also interesting in making available legal decisions on Wikisource as a reference for factual claims in Scientology-related articles. (hasn't edited since 2008)
• Texture (talk · contribs) - No inside knowledge - neither convert nor critic (but a serious non-believer) - Would like to see both sides evenly presented. Currently too anti-Scientology in some sections. (hasn't edited since 2013)
• Thaddeus Slamp (talk · contribs) (hasn't edited since 2008)
• Theseus1776 (talk · contribs) - specialize in Scientology's theology, cosmology, cosmogony, ethics, founding/modern history, OT III/OT VIII scholarship, relationship to other religions, relationship to Thelema (hasn't edited since 2014)
• Tomisbrt (talk · contribs) - Non-scientologist but with reasonable knowledge of UK based activities of church. (hasn't edited since 2021)
• Waffa (talk · contribs) - I have been doing more and more reading about Scientology and it fascinates me how something like that (just an smart idea and fiction book) can become so powerful tool. I do a lot of research in various arias and plan to open up new educational website in Northern Europe soon that would also cover Scientology. I'm here so i can keep myself updated and help out the project from my little free time i might have. (indef blocked in 2021)
• Warlordjohncarter (talk · contribs) - Definitely not a particular knowledgable party regarding this subject, but can help in peer review and other activities not based primarily on adding article content. (no longer a registered user)
• wgungfu (talk · contribs) (hasn't edited since 2016)
• Xinit (talk · contribs) - I'm a skeptic of religions and religion-like philosophies in general, and try to be a good editor regardless of my knowledge (or lack thereof) of the material at hand. (hasn't edited since 2019)
