Is this the tavistock inst. involved with brain washing and secret LSD thingies? or is it not included because there is little evidence to support it? (Benjabanup 20:23, 22 May 2007 (UTC))
Well shit, Duncan, if you have been there and YOU say it is legit, it must be. I feel so much better now.
This page seems lacking from what I've read and heard about Tavistock. If the LSD experiments and mind control experiments are indeed false, it should mention that these rumors have been disproved (and backed up with references). I'd like a better idea of some of the experiments they have been involved in, and perhaps some of their goals. There is no doubt there are Marxist ties to this organization judging from the current Wikipedia entry. It also mentions group psychology studies. What is their relationship to the whole LSD thing? In short, the current entry is quite vague about what this organization is all about. JettaMann 21:21, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
I suppose like 99.9% percent of visitors to this wiki page come after they have read some sort of conspiracy literature. It might be fair to include any sort of reference to this fact. Even Harry Potter has it's own web page, although never existed. At least the reference could say that there is no proven fact that links TI and any sort of conspiracy. Or the reference could lead to a separate webpage "Travistok Institute (Conspiracy)". Consider it as a sort of fiction that deserves disambiguation. I think it is just silly to have a huge scroll of consipracy discussion here and have no single word on the page itself. Actually even if the real Travistok instutute never existed, it's fictional counterpart already deserves a separate page, isn't it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.8.236.172 (talk) 19:26, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
Among the various urban legends surrounding the Tavistock Institute, one of the more interesting stories is the assertion that Tavistock played a significant role in the creation of the State of Israel in 1948. It would be interesting any of our editors would be able to research these claims. [1] ADM (talk) 19:09, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

I encountered the name of the Institute in a joke linking some idea to be as wild as someone claiming a plot by Tavistock. I came here and found nothing, searching you get over 47,000 hits on the topic. So I have found notable and reliable cites that do not perpetuate any claims against the Institute but do give some brief explanation of what is going on. I would argue that running into these theories as wild as they maybe is how most people will know that the Institute even exists and it makes sense to give some info on that here. It is not necessary to give any validity to the theories but I would hold that they are notable enough to get a mention that the theories exist. ---Wowaconia (talk) 18:13, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
Hello wikipedia, I put some recent details about the work that the Tavistock Institute does to try and give a fuller picture of it and because one of the charitable objectives is to share knowledge and information. I moved the current work section up so readers get a sense of that before diving into the history. I hope that's all okay and I would like to disclose that I am employed there.
