[edit] Oops!
Just a heads-up - you put Paramatman up for speedy deletion on the grounds that it's patent nonsense, but the page was actually describing a concept from Hindu theology. No big deal — one can't be expected to google for every term in an anonymously-submitted substub that gives no context. Just thought you should know. DS 13:20, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Question on Xenu Reversal
Why did you rev my Short Summary from the Xenu Article ??? --80.131.97.77 22:17, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC) http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Xenu&diff=0&oldid=12676065
- I'm not sure if "I'm drinking lots of rum and popping pinks and greys" is useful as a summary. To someone who knows the general background, a short summary will make no odds. To someone looking at the page for the first time, it looks like a piece of out-of-context nonsense or (sadly all too common) vandalism.
- If you could give context to the summary, maybe in a paragraph or two as part of a sub-heading, that would be great.
- I'm sorry if I was a little over zealous in my page revert and I meant nothing personal by it. --Cataclysm 00:17, Apr 26, 2005 (UTC)
