[edit] Jesusism
About that Jesusism article. Could you please add some sources or tell where you got your information? Please check out Wikipedia Policy on Verfiability for more guidelines about sourcing. I am adding an unreferenced tag to that article now. Also, on a Google search for Jesusism, I found ~500 sites. The top ~40 or so I looked at the summaries, and could find nothing substantiating what you wrote. Please add some references, and delete those tags when you're done. Also, since this article was up for deletion before, please check out Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Jesusism for previous concerns about this article. After you have checked these out, please allay these concerns and implement some changes in the article. Thanks. Copysan 23:31, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Metric units
The articles about metric units use the 're' suffix in preference to the 'er' suffix throughout Wikipedia. You appear to be systematically changing the articles to 'er' without any discussion. Why? The 're' suffix is used primarily because it is the SI standard spelling. Unless you can come up with a very good reason why you're making these changes - and American English vs. British English is not a very good reason - I'll consider reverting them all.

- "metre" is unphonetic. "meter" is phonetic, so it's better than "metre". 64.192.107.242 01:46, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

- Phoneticness is not a sufficient reason. It's a question of Commonwealth vs. U.S. spelling. I suggest you read these.

[edit] Blanking comments
Hello Facts&moreFacts. Please be advised that it is not good wikipedia etiquette to edit Talk pages so as to remove comments you don't like. It is also frowned upon to use so-called sock puppets to effect anonymous edits. Your edits under User:64.192.107.242 fall into this category. Would you please also read the Manual of Style regarding the use of various versions of English. Arcturus 22:44, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
