http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retirement ... retirement
Added mention of YMOYL and ERE to this page. Also check out the further reading section....

Ok. I think my brief wikipedia career is over.
The changes I made to Simple Living and Retirement have been removed as promotional... :
"Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages, as you did to Retirement. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 02:26, 5 October 2012 (UTC)"
This is a more nuanced project than my feeble self can handle ...

Welcome to the wonderful world of Wiki anomie

I've learned some tricks to avoid having my work dumped, but it takes some practice. Don't get discouraged.

Perhaps the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financial_independence article would be more accepting of an ERE mention? I'm surprised none of you have made an attempt there yet.

@Jacob--Do you want to see the heavier edits before I submit them? I could post them to the discussion page, or somewhere else if you prefer.

No need to see/discuss them in advance.

woot! my Further Reading links were reinstated:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_liv ... er_reading
incentive to prod further ;
I like the suggestion to work on the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financial_independence page. It is nothing more than a promo for some other guys blog at this point ...
