Sources are good. Tone/content is pretty neutral. Only problem is that the further reading section is egregiously long. -- Craigtalbert ( talk) 01:18, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
As to my recent edit, please note that a mention of the organization's main publication is no different that the mention of AA's Big Book and RR's Small Book, both of which are (or last time I looked were) noted in their enteries. Henrysteinberger ( talk) 13:48, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
I want to echo the sentiment of prior commentators that this was a very good start.
I have some concerns over the "Recognition" wording. To most readers, "recognition" implies some sort of official sanction. The citations offered do not speak whatsoever to any recommendations or "recognition" by these agencies of SMART Recovery. SMART Recovery is included in the self-help referrals section of all of the referenced/cited organizations. I don't know that it is accurate, after reading the links provided, to say that they are "recognized". I also saw that the "parent" of SMART, Rational Recovery, was NOT listed as a resource in the links you provided, and in many cases, SMART recovery was the only non-12-step group included in the referrals you provided. Again, though, being listed as a referral is not tantamount to being "recognized," and for that reason, I am not comfortable with the current assertions that SMART Recovery is 'recognized" by those agencies.

I think I'm going to expand the article to include the stages of change and create subsections for the four points. I'll be using the SMART Recovery Handbook as my primary source. If I get anything wrong, please let me know. The article may be in a state of flux as I expand it. A Quest For Knowledge ( talk) 20:38, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
I've been away from this article for several years, but audited the changes since 2010. There were several pieces of uncited information added that I flagged. I also restored one bit that was removed for no longer being representative, but no citation was given for SMART's change of opinion on the topic. - Scarpy ( talk) 18:34, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
