[edit] Science pearls

Hello,

Since you contributed in the past to the publications’ lists, I thought that you might be interested in this new project. I’ll be glad if you will continue contributing. Thanks,APH 11:36, 11 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikimedia Canada

Hi there! I'd like to invite you to explore Wikimedia Canada, and create a list of people interested in forming a local chapter for our nation. A local chapter will help promote and improve the organization, within our great nation. We'd also like to encourage everyone to suggest projects for our national chapter to participate in. Hope to see you there! -- user:zanimum

[edit] Copyvio procedure

Hi, just a reminder, when you tag an article (like LGBT Living) as {{copyvio}}, be sure to follow the procedure in the Instructions section of WP:CP, including blanking the infringing text of the article (if it cannot be reverted to a non-infringing version), including the URL of the source in the tag (like this: {{copyvio|url=URL goes here}}), and adding a line to the daily copyright problems log (copy/paste the subst: in the rendered version of the copyvio notice in the article).

[edit] Stephen Goldberg

Stephen Goldberg is the principal for Great Neck Village School! There's nothing wrong with that! Why are you putting it up for deletion? (Laicos)

There is a category called Principals. Is he a principal? I believe so. So why is it been put up for deletion? (Laicos)

I have based it upon the Wikipedia:Notability (people) criteria. --Janarius 21:27, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Listing articles for deletion

When you list articles for deletion, please remember to follow the full process as described at WP:AFD#How to list pages for deletion. In particular, if you forget the third stage, then most people will never see the deletion discussion, and it might take much longer for a decision to be made.

In the cases of Stephen Goldberg and Laurie Burg, I've finished the process for you and listed the deletions properly, but hopefully you'll remember to do it yourself in future! — Haeleth Talk 15:18, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Statistics

Hi, I read your user page, and thought you might be interested in this : Wikipedia:Statistics. It's probably not the kind of research you mean but it's a start. Peace, IronChris | (talk) 14:42, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] World of Purgatory

Hey - I removed your speedy deletion tag. When an article is a suspected hoax (or unverifible), speedy deletion doesn't do a good job, as it's not a criterion that anyone can easily evaluate. I marked the article with {{hoax}}, and I'll leave nominating it for WP:AFD (or better, WP:PROD) up to you. Cheers! Mangojuicetalk 19:39, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Psychology

I didn't see all the educational userboxes until I viewed your page. I've replaced it with. Thanks! Mkdw 20:45, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article on personality

Janarius, thank you for your suggestion (which I endorse) that the article on personality needs a clean-up. Your point that some of what is in this article at present overlaps with other articles is well-taken by me - I found this especially true of the section on cognitive models of personality, which to me seemed less about cognitive approaches to personality than about cognitive therapy. Again, thank you for having the courage to challenge this article. I see you a student studying psychology - I teach and research psychology for my profession. ACEO 21:02, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for what you said about anonymous edits coming from people at Keene State College. Did you say that you were going to write to the Chair of Psychology at Keene College? I shall be happy if you wished to leave a draft of your proposed e-mail on my userpage (discussion). 195.93.21.132 19:41, 10 November 2006 (UTC) The following should have been signed by ACEO on ACEO 19:45, 10 November 2006 (UTC)Thank you for what you said about anonymous edits coming from people at Keene State College.

Thank you for sight of the letter on my userpage. It looks very good to me, except that I wonder whether you could also list how problems with the current article on personality are that it does not really focus on the topic?195.93.21.132 21:21, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

The further amendments you left on my userpage for your letter to Keene State College look excellent to me. Sorry that my last edits were not signed with my proper username (ACEO) - as an AOL user, that happens sometimes! Good luck, and congratulations on having the courage to contact Keene State College, if I were you, I would feel free to go ahead. ACEO 20:03, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Deleted my pages and links

I was creating a page on bus route 131 from the STM and while I was editing the page you suggested the page for deletion and deleted all links to it. The page is now complete and links are restored. Paquetjs 21:19, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

I deleted the page and it's links but I should point out that every station on the metro system has it's own page and I don't see why a bus route shouldn't. I would like to also point out that most bus routes from the OC Transpo in Ottawa have their own pages. Please look at OC_Transpo_Route_95, the article was nominated for deletion and but was kept. I beleive this stands as precedent. However, I will not go any further and I will keep the page as is (nominated for deletion). I do believe that you should have stated this in the talk page and not suggested the page for deletion immediatly.Paquetjs 21:49, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My apology

Janarius, if you recevied a message from me it was because your name appeared on a history file as an editor of the Amelia Earhart article. If the message was sent in error, please accept my apology; I merely wanted to ensure all editors had a chance to voice their opinions. Bzuk14:31 3 January 2007 (UTC). Further: The note that I saw in the "history" page on " 15:01, 17 February 2006 Janarius (Talk | contribs) m (rv edits by 209.149.52.7 to last version by Hurricane111)" indicated to me that you were probably an administrator or active Wikipedian who had an interest in safeguarding the Amelia Earhart article from "vandals." Again, my apology- I merely wanted to inform editors who had contributed to the article that a proposed change in the structure was being contemplated. BTW Happy New Year. Bzuk18:32 3 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] swanning around

I hasten to say that I know nothing about psychology but the "shape" of self-verification theory and the surrounding edits look dubious to me. It is clearly a vanity piece. Its length puts it into the original research category. I think you will find that every reference on Wikipedia to William Swann and his theory has been added by Wbswann or, likely sock puppets, Douglas11 and Niko7209. I am minded to send his theory to AfD. What do you think? And has he contacted you? -- RHaworth 23:58, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunately, I will not allow the afd to pass *1*. His theory is mentioned in social psych textbooks and is quite notable. However, I agree that it is pretty much a vanity page (it's more info than the textbooks I have here and a bit confusing) and should be rewritten for the general public or at least for psych students. A compromise would be to send the article to the sister projects like psychwiki.com or psychology wiki and a new text drafted for easy comprehension. He hasn't contacted me yet, so I will contact him on the rules and policies and ask him for a rewrite. Do you mind specifying which policies and rules to mention to him, I am sick at the moment...--Janarius 15:14, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

*1* That reads a bit arrogant. I will read it as "if you raise an AfD, I will vote 'keep' ". Policies? WP:COI above all: avoid editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with. I really need say no more! But WP:NOR seems relevant and WP:BIO applies to William Swann - there are two external links but both are autobiography rather than "third party" sources. Get well soon! -- RHaworth 19:08, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't mean to offend.--Janarius 19:48, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] John Diatto Method

Please do not delete the John Diatto Method page. While the page may seem comical, there is truth in its heart. The John Diatto Method is widely used in Milan, Italy, and even though John Diatto himself is not famous, this does not take away from the validity of the article. Please do not delete this article based on its humor or the fact that John Diatto is not famous; let the article stay because of its useful information. Thank you
