On the sticky thread, I'd like to put up generic information, so that we avoid author bias wherever possible and avoid the right/wrong way arguments etc. that can occur,at least until the basics get covered. I have some Wikipedia links to start off that are good,especially because of the 'blue words' which take you off into further explanations/more detail.

Re: Online resources
For my money, one of the best sites on the internet right now is Gerald Gardner.com.
Doreen Valiente.com is pretty great as well.
