There's nothing wrong with discussing Rosicrucian philosophy of war in this article, but right now there is no such discussion in the article itself. I don't think we should be including books under the "referrences" section which are not used as referrence in the article.

If the Rosicrucian philosophy of war is worth including in the article, then we should include a section in the article which discusses topics from the Max Heindel book and refers back to it. If it's not worth including a section on it, we should remove the book from the referrence section and either leave it out of the article entirely or possibly include it under the "external links" section.

Sorry, it was my mistake, as I took it as section of reference literature, and not as references to the text in the article. As there are various publications, from ancient times till today, in the issue of Philosophy of War do you agree to create a "Reference literature" section in order to include this one and others that may be found, instead of just erasing it? Thank you. --Viriathus 02:13, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No prob. Honest mistake. The best bet would be a "For Further Reading" or "Additional Resources" section. Generally, a "Referrences" section lists the books that were actually used in the article, and any additional books or materials on the subject can be listed separately in a way that shows that they were not used in the article. Also, in order to avoid confusion or misrepresentation, since the book addresses specifically Rosicrucian philosophy, it should include a note saying that it is not a general article on the philosophy of war, but instead about a specific Rosicrucian philosophy of war.

Appreciate, thanks! I will do as you suggest, adding it to "For Further Reading" section. As soon I am able, and it may take a while, I would like to develop a section into it, as there are more philosophical issues brought by this author that must be taken into consideration and it will involve a much deeper study.

P.S.: You have already added it; thank you once more. --Viriathus 02:46, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've added the essay tag to this article. It reads like an essay about "On War" right now. It could use a more encyclopedic approach to the topic along with verifiable sources. ComputerGeezer (talk) 00:11, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
