The following are sub-stubs:

The following are in need of formatting/wikilinking/encyclopedia-friendly language:

Other problems (should probably go to Wikipedia:Pages needing attention when removed):

  • March 1st Movement npov
  • Crystal growth Thin-film deposition very poor and not on the topics I would expect
  • Odalism - copyedit, NPOVing needed. And if there is a relation to neo-Nazis movements, it should be mentioned.
    • + copyedit, links improved, NPOV improved but the abstract stuff needs more help. Someone with better understanding of neo-Nazism could do much more.
  • GamesNET - needs verification
  • Tibetan Buddhism - see talk page
  • Strategic enterprise management - complete mess. Format, and the content is completely confused, too. Complete rewrite or delete. + I've attempted a stub, but I don't really speak "management" and the references I found online were mostly adverts, so it could be wrong.
  • Peace movement - very messy (various parts need to be merged)
  • Perspective - long, chaotic, difficult to extract knowledge from it.
