Contents
Description
editThis project aims to improve existing articles, and create new high quality articles, about Transcendental Meditation and related programs and technologies, and their organizations, founders, leaders, former leaders, publications, and other closely related topics. This project aims to provide a structured forum where Wikipedians can discuss proposed edits and additions.
This project also aims to tag articles that mention the above topics, such as articles about persons who practice TM. Kevin Carmody (talk) 09:53, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Other links
edit- Existing template: Template:Transcendental Meditation movement (already used in many articles)
- An existing category, Transcendental Meditation movement, is automatically generated from tags in articles, including the above template, and can be accessed through those tags. (It seems that a category cannot be accessed through a link without adding the page to the category, which does not appear appropriate for a project proposal.)
Articles to include in the project
editArticles listed in the Transcendental Meditation category (see above), except those in the Transcendental Meditation practitioners subcategory and articles listed below for tagging, and with the following articles added.
- Techniques and programs
- Maharishi Ayurveda
The following entries are in the Transcendental Meditation practitioners subcategory. Since they are leaders of the TM movement, their articles should be included in the project and not just tagged as practicing TM.
- Leaders and former leaders
- Ashley Deans
- Deepak Chopra
- John Hagelin
- Bevan Morris
- Tony Nader
- David Orme-Johnson
Articles to tag
editTagging means that the article will contain a link to the project but will not be included in the project. This is intended for articles that mention TM but are not primarily about it.

- Settlements
