I, Jason Niesen, wrote this article, as I wrote the article that was submitted to holisticjunction. I added the article here as well, since there was no information on the newly founded term "debt diet." Therefore, wikipedia has full rights to publish this article. Please replace article just as it was before. Thank you.

Okay, I have added that piece to the original article on our server. I can forward you the URL if you would like. Jason sot 22:48, 20 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
I've sent a confirmation email to jesse@startovertoday.com. Once confirmed, I'll remove the notice. --LBMixPro<Speak|on|it!> 02:24, 22 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
Jesse received the email and we have discussed it. Jesse is my brother and a co-author of the article. I am curious as to where you found that email?? You will find the disclaimer on the original version of the article at http://www.startovertoday.com/oprah-debt-diet/ Thanks for all your help. Jason sot 20:31, 24 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
I still need a response to the confirmation letter mailed to me though, so I can forward it to WP's PR dept. Sorry I have to put you through, but policy's policy. After I recive it, I'll open the article back and send it to the PR dept. FYI: I found the email address from one of the sites you put your article at. --LBMixPro<Speak|on|it!> 04:15, 27 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Wikibooks edit

Even though the article is GFDLed, I see one MAJOR problem with it. It reads like a how-to guide on following the steps of the Debt Diet. As such, I marked it to be copied to Wikipedia's sister site, Wikibooks, a collection of free, open-content textbooks that you can edit. As Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, it needs to explain what the subject is in a neutural point of view. --LBMixPro <Speak|on|it!> 07:04, 15 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

If we rewrite this to be more encyclopedic, can we also add this article (the way it is now) to Wikibooks? Jason sot 19:31, 24 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
Yes. --SB_Johnny|talk|books 10:55, 12 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Actually, that's the plan. I'll transfer (transwiki as its called) this version to Wikibooks, so that the GFDL permissions and such stay intact. Afterward, I'll create a stub breifly explaining the debt diet, which will include a box saying that the guide is at Wikibooks. --LBMixPro <Speak|on|it!> 11:31, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Shouldnt there be a link to the WikiBooks article in this article?
