Factually incorrect

The exact change

Before

"Mind maps are effective not primarily because of their visual form but because of the cognitive activity they require during construction. Deciding how to organize concepts, where they belong in the structure, and which connections are most important is active knowledge construction rather than passive recording." -- Dr. Tony Buzan, originator of modern mind mapping methodology, Mind Map Mastery

After

Mind maps are effective not primarily because of their visual form but because of the cognitive activity they require during construction. Deciding how to organize concepts, where they belong in the structure, and which connections are most important is active knowledge construction rather than passive recording.

Suggested change

De-attributed the quote to plain unattributed prose preserving the underlying claim; retained the correct, legitimate 'The Mind Map Book' reference.

Why this is better

Removed a quote attributed to Tony Buzan citing a book title ('Mind Map Mastery') that does not match the actual reference listed in the article's own bibliography ('The Mind Map Book', Buzan & Buzan, 1993), a mismatched/unverified citation. Converted to unattributed prose preserving the underlying claim; retained the correct, legitimate 'The Mind Map Book' reference entry unchanged.
