2949:"... the appropriate non-admin actions when an admin is making content changes is to treat them like just another editor of similar experience--to assume the comments or edits are in good faith, intended to improve the article--and that they might actually be doing that. But if you disagree, anything anybody says here can be challenged. If an admin or any other editor should try to be overbearing, the first step is to wait a day or so in order to decide calmly if the issue is worth the contention, and then continue the discussion. The response will be either conciliatory or defensive or aggressive. If it is defensive, ask for opinions at a suitable noticeboard--see the list of them at the top of WP:ANB. I would normally reserve AN/I for matters which can not be otherwise handled, and which are important enough to be worth wide attention, with the understanding that once something reaches there, it gets so much attention that it can very quickly escalate. If at all unsure whether it is worth proceeding that far , after asking for an opinion from another editor, on or off wiki. And before getting too involved in a dispute, it is wise to observe the dynamics of Knowledge disputes. It is sometimes worthwhile to examine the course of prior disputes with the same editor.' — 145:
of the problem defines the possible solution set. The "problem" in many, and arguably the majority, of instances does not exist in the symbols of language we use to articulate it. Therefore there is a translation between the reality which causes us some discomfort and which we would like to improve and our perception of this. As we articulate the components as we choose to select and define them we also constrain the opportunities available to us for "solution" of these issues. For instance: 1. My wife and I argue about X. 2. We have explored options for compromise but our positions are irreconcilable. 3. We can no longer speak about this issue without arguing. The implicit assumption is that the argument is about X. More often than not it is about A and Y and a bit of R too, combined with the fact that 27 and 359 have not even been considered, as well as the fact that it's bright pink. The point is that scientific methodology only works when it is applied with a full understanding of its limitations.

short, and covers the material so poorly that I find it hard to believe anyone could find it satisfactory right now. Inadequate coverage of the subject is still only a minor problem in my view, though, and that can be fixed by expanding it. I find another issue to be much more problematic: The subject is inaccurately presented as being synonymous with David Allen's book. The infobox makes it seem like an overblown Amazon listing. Really? He certainly authored this methodology, but that is the kind of thing that belongs in a "History" section in the article text. The book cover and title certainly shouldn't take front and center. Now, a picture of David Allen might be appropriate. No one denies his deep connection to GTD. However, GTD is now a methodology that has been embraced by

of available sources. Like another writer on this talk page, part of my interest came through the discussion of the GTD methedology in the Willpower book. So here I find myself going through the history of the page to recover (for myself, not to revert ... I don't want to be in the middle of a Knowledge edit war) basic factual information about a widely-discussed approach to to-do-list management. I'm sure deletions were made in good faith, but I want to be clear that I'd rather a too much information than too little. I can recognize self-promotion and other Knowledge sins and ignore them. Or maybe even edit some out myself. But not at the cost of deleting whole sections full of useful information. Frustrating.

system is because his book is still regarded as one of the best resources for GTD, whether you want an introduction to it or a guide to a full implementation. It is possible to implement GTD fully without reading a word of the book, and elements of it can be used independently. The system does not depend on buzzwords or flowcharts or a specific set of software. GTD is often viewed as a infomercial-esque "kit," but anyone familiar with it can tell you otherwise. That informed view is the one that should be on Knowledge, provided that it's objective, and I would argue that it is.
2329:
all things on one's mind into the system (either as projects/tasks, or as reference material). The aim is to attain mental clarity conducive to religious experiences promoted by David Allen's religion. He refers to this in discussions on podcasts available at "GTD Connect", and in his later book, Making it all Work. This is important for readers to know because it shapes the GTD system. For example, it results in the rule to clear everything from one's mind, rather than just what needs to be dealt with, and totally dismisses (or is unaware of) the role of prospective memory.
3137:. It's a set of techniques to address a systematic problem that was originally expounded by a single person, but has gained large popularity and become relevant to the entire field (productivity vs. software development). The main difference is that agile software development can be summed up in one or two sentences, while GTD requires at least a small article to adequately cover (which this article does not), and as a direct consequence of this fact, David Allen's book remains useful. With this in mind, this article should be 1159:
closely a product is aligned with the principles of GTD? How many GTD-specific features a product has? No, rather the default view shows which product was updated last, with your own currently at the top. I'm very sure that any coaching (or software) company in the world would happily invest the effort to maintain that page, and have links to their own services all over it, and explaining the benefits of their own methodology as effectively as this page does:

op-eds in newspapers. The "theories" are not scientific theories subject to peer review or political or economic ideas. They are just suggestions that may or may not work for different people. It's like writing an entry for Japanese cuisine and then one for Mexican cuisine. Would you have a paragraph in the Mexican entry pointing out that Japanese feel that food should be less spicy and vice versa in the Japanese entry?

its procedure for "processing stuff") heavily from other time management books which were popular and influential before it was published, including for example The Organized Executive by Stephanie Winston. The ideas of other time management books which GTD apparently draws heavily upon should be at least mentioned or compared in the Knowledge article. Such a sub-section may be titled "Background" or "History".
2582:. The original article was sourced (authoritative, primary sources, not for other topics as asserted); it was not promotional; it was written by hundreds of independent authors over a period of years; it described a system that became influential over a decade. I'm not affiliated with David Allen, I'm an independent GTD SME and past contributor to this article and talk page. 1396:
expanded. So as long as you're happy to keep this text here, then I'm happy for others to read it and make their own minds up. Your defense of implying that I don't understand some pretty simple concepts is a good job of hiding the important point. It's obvious how much you care about keeping this link right where it is, and benefiting your company.

rapidly becoming generic -- rollerblades, for example.) In the case of GTD, it's even more bizarre: "getting things done" is just an ordinary phrase, so Allen has plenty of work to do to convince people he has a special case use for it. If he had given it a wacky name ("The Unicorn Folder System"), he wouldn't have to work as hard to fight dilution.
540:. There is a lot of useful information on the internet - but it is not Knowledge's job to list all of it or even any of it. If a notable, long-standing site is a good resource for information on the topic, then it might be appropriate for the "External links" section. Otherwise, it is just turning Knowledge into an internet directory. 859:"Knowledge articles may include links to ... further research that is accurate and on-topic; information that could not be added to the article for reasons such as copyright or amount of detail ... or other meaningful, relevant content that is not suitable for inclusion in an article for reasons unrelated to their reliability. " 881:, emphasis mine.) For the reasons in #5 above, I originally posted the article content and link there when the "Comparison of GTD software" article was deleted. That may not have been ideal given the guideline just quoted, of which I was unaware at the time. I now step out and leave this to the group to decide. 2222:--sometimes an article needs a bold move to get revision started -- again, in making the edit I was not acting as an administrator, as administrators have no special control over content, and can be reverted just like anyone else. We don't get angry at it--well, at least almost all of us don't get angry at it. 524:
not want to integrate the content. Clear? By the way: lifehack and 43folders are both just commercial stuff - the one a blog (you told me, these kind is not wanted here...) and 43f, ok, a wiki but just a wrapper for www.43folder.com - so your arguments sound some kind of ridiculous, don't you think so?
2391:
The GTD book doesn't cite sources of the system, and doesn't even have a References or Bibliography section. Although this is common in the genre, it is in effect plagarism (which for example wouldn't be tolerated without "citation needed" notes in Knowledge articles). It clearly draws ideas (such as

Furthermore, I find it misleading to present the author as a minister, and not as a productivity consultant (and a successful one at that), which is in fact the capacity under which he wrote the book. I have read the book, and it has no references to anything religious in it. In fact, the first time

I also think we might well remove the section, leaving only a general statement--or,even better, combine the other articles into here with a brief statement for each. . There is really nothing particularly distinctive about them except their co-branding and the use of the terminology. To-do lists are

This was listed for speedy deletion as promotional. As reviewing administrator I declined the deletion, since there was a core of reasonable content. But the overlong summary of the method was in fact promotional--it is not appropriate encyclopedic content. I removed it all, except for the software
1656:
Moved this (revert if you disagree) - but on re-reading it, it doesn't really seem sales-heavy to me. "Allen contends...", "the psychology is based on ...", "unlike other time-management systems" - seems to just put out the theories, bases and differentiations - doesn't really "champion" the approach
1158:
Your research page was essentially a copy of the page that the admins identified as not encyclopaedic, with minor modifications and a request for additional input, and MANY links to your own (better) methodology, software and coaching services. Is that research? What are you measuring against? How

For example, some titles in the jeffsandquist list do not directly support GTD (e.g., MonkeeBiz and Macro are useful but not GTD software per se). c) It lacks a lot of information the original article included (OS, sync comparisons, free vs. cost, etc.). 557:

505:
Really, blog articles are inappropriate for Knowledge no matter what the size or level of quality. If there are current links to other blog articles, they should go too. Knowledge is not a tool to drive traffic to any site, no matter what quality it is. It is also not an internet directory listing
144:
This is an example of a "basic" issue with the theories. An example of a "higher level" issue would be the notion of "tasks" that appears to underlie the concepts. The system works fine for activities that require minimal creativity. Without wanting to spend too long detailing this, the definition
136:
For instance, the notion that filing's fundamental characteristic is that it should be "simple" in order to enable "rapid retrieval" has an impact on the fundamental notion of Allen's to "move tasks out of the mind". Electronic fining systems using full text indexing attempt to provide a solution to

I want to add my voice to the disappointed-in-incompleteness side of this discussion. I have no conflict of interest. I don't even use GTD. I wanted to learn more about it. I was surprised that there was so little information about it on Knowledge, given its popularity and given the multiplicity
3224:
I will be very careful in rewriting the article, including sourcing and NPOV. I never meant to imply that I would simply cut and paste old content. I am confident that I can find objective, third-party sources on the details and methodology of the system. That was, in part, my point! Thanks for your

This article used to be good documentation of a common method, but now it is useless. This is misguided vandalism, and I intend to restore the article as soon as I have the time. I am really shocked that someone would rationalize hacking up a useful article this way because of fear that there is a

I have removed a sentence in the intro presenting David Allen as a minister in a religious cult / group / whatever. I was unaware of this, but I hardly think this is relevant to the system he has come up with. The way this was written, the assumption was that this was somehow relevant to the content
1861:
The technical side may be most helpful for defining the operational characteristics needed to support GTD. Based on the discussion of software here I'd have to say none of them get it yet. There is a need to express the underlying ideas of GTD at a more Meta, by that I mean a higher, level. Given
1741:
I've read the article through twice and there appears to be little that I would class as unbalanced about it. It doesn't, for example, slam other systems or their practitioners and seems to be a pretty well-rounded, well-written article that, granted, might need some fleshing out, but nothing major.
1575:
I see that GTD is described as an "action management method". What is "action management"? The link redirects to "management", which doesn't say anything about "action management". I am also trying to find references to "action management" being used to define the field in which GTD is in, and can't

Because this might violate someone's rights. The fact is, that all wikipedia content is licensed under GFDL which is not allowed on many resources. Even most of the wikipedia articles and content are just plagiates created by their "contributors" who do not know what they are doing. That's why I did

Timewarp a couple of years ago, this article was a beautiful and concise article on the complete methodology of GTD, from the processes to interesting facets like the tickler file. It even had a picture of the tickler file. What happened to it? It was what inspired me to learn more about GTD and an

I agree that it may seem difficult to find a connection between the religious activities of the author on his book on time management, but it actually is central to the system, and important for readers to know. The aim of the GTD system is to achieve what Allen calls "mind like water", by entering
2264:
I disagree. This section shouldn't have ANY links to specific software, internal or not. The current list of software (7 titles at present) should be removed because it is original research in every sense. The "original research"ness of this can't be fixed, it just is. Once you remove the list, the

These comments about criticism covering the range of application of GTD caused some thoughts. It strikes me in the very short time I've worked with GTD that it's useful. Based on comments here, as the range of applications has expanded the way it is applied needs to be adjusted. Those alterations
1537:
Putting this in the "What GTD Is About?" section and ensuring the terms are listed as a registered trademark right away seem like reasonable compromises. I am surprised Knowledge does not use the ® symbol for registered trademarks, however, as I thought this was the only universally acceptable form
1058:
Update: I retract my last statement. I would prefer that the Knowledge link points somewhere else. The current target website contains text drawing attention to their own methodology as a superior alternative to GTD, and sells their own coaching services. To me this seems directly opposed to the

For something like this a neutral point of view is to accurately describe his system. There is no real "controversy" about his system. If it's not your cup of tea, and Seven Habits or WorkSmart or something else is, you use that system instead. Nobody's picketing David Allen, nobody's writing irate
2447:
Here's a good source to add as a reference to this article: the book "Willpower" by Baumeister and Tierney. It definitely meets Knowledge's criteria for reliable sources (IMO) because the authors have published many scientific articles in the subject of self-control. Pages 75 to 87 of this book
1591:
Due to lack of comments on this topic, and to proper references on what "action management" is, I am removing "action management" from the definition of GTD. It would be good though to know what "field" GTD is in, what other methods would be defined as alternatives to GTD, and how is GTD and those

Kevin, you're welcome to stop replying if you think it's not the best place to discuss this. My point was - I'm not comfortable with what I feel as your fairly self-serving editing of this page, and I wanted to make sure my implicit support was taken back, and my original objection reinstated and

So I propose that we move the link to a site 1) that nobody could claim is biased, and 2) with content that reflects actual research on GTD software based on something a bit more fundamental - hopefully agreed upon with someone vaguely authoritative. I'd like a disclaimer that the GTD-ness of all

Allen's methodology is great, but it has limitations and boundaries and those are not dealt with in the article. I will note the structure and integrate it with other conceptual frameworks, so thanks. But filing is not only about storage and retrieval, it contains understanding in its structure.

A agree with what Kcren, A Friendly Nerd and others pro-restoration have said here. I also went to this arctile to get good information on GTD (the methodology, not the book) and also sent friends to it. I was sadened today when I went here during a telephone call and couldn't cite parts from the

I just saw this article for the first time, as an extensive user of the GTD methodology for several years. I have to say, this a pretty embarrassing article for such a popular subject, and just one more example to add to the list of "Why Knowledge doesn't always work so good." This article is so

There is no real balance to the ideas Allen puts forward. The article reads as a synopsis of the book with no critique. "Objectivity" is fine when applied to a phenomenon but when applied to a set of ideas, such as Allen's book, simply reporting on what it says is not fitting in my view for an

I value open discussion highly, but I also want this article fixed. If no one responds in two weeks, I will rewrite the article, possibly including older revisions. Even if it's not perfect, it can be improved incrementally after the most important fixes. Please respond with your views on this!

The senseless vandal who has removed the methodology section from this article just now forced me to buy the book. I repeat what so many have said here, since apparently it is not getting through: Allen's approach aims to be an aid in a world of information and activity avalanche. With the same

flagged this article as looking like an advertisement. Personally, I don't see it. It is a summary of GTD and some sources for GTD in popular culture. No hype, no emotional language. Pretty basic. I do think it would be great to have more sources cited and know the community has been looking to

First, this is about Allen, not the "cult of GTD". Secondly, the "considerable debate" is a forum, for crying out loud. Not allowable, and furthermore, even the 43folders guy thought these people were "warring" and asked them to leave - post #48. Now, some geeks arguing on a forum sinply isn't
1043:
Update: Kevin and I have had an offline chat and I'm happier about their intent. Without a full canvassing of the GTD community it would be hard to know what the ideal solution would be, so as long as there is a commitment to making the page worthy of the link from Knowledge, I'm okay with it.

Removing all the information from and article and replacing it with bits of information-free blah blah does not really help anyone. A detailed description of a books contents in the article about that book is not advertisement. If someone is concerned about the wording of an article, he should

The overwhelming impression that the inclusion of that sentence gave, left as it was, is that GTD is somehow religious preaching material or whatnot, which couldn't be further from the truth. I feel it would be a shame if people turned away from such a brilliant productivity framework, because

At the very least, define "GTD software" and "supporting GTD to one extent or another". Is it anything that can be used for GTD software? Applications that have any GTD elements in them? If the former is true then Notepad is right up there. If the latter, then I'm pretty sure quite a few

apparently someone felt they needed to point out the author's eccentric religious ideals and negatively affect the system by association. (Especially when the article on David Allen himself only makes a light fleeting comment regarding his religious role).

What, if anything, do you use for GTD? I'm running on a Mac (10.4), and I use Pierre Chatel's Sidenote as a general ToDo/list app. I'm still looking for something decent to use (freeware/open source-I'm really quite cheap), and would welcome any tips.
