[edit] Race and intelligence

Thanks for you comments on the talk page, I think that you are absolutely right about the article not having enough information about how this research has been used. I have made some changes that I hope will improve it, both to the main article and to this article: Race and intelligence (Utility of research) There is still a lot of work to be done... if you aren't still busy, I'd love to have your help on this project. I've found a few sources and made some suggestions here: [1]

Hope to see you around! futurebird 16:54, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Again, welcome... I hope you stay around to help edit this article. I feel a bit overwhelmed with the project, to be honest. I'm always glad to see a new fresh eye on the scene. futurebird 01:10, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I don't think you need to read

The talk page is pretty useless at this point. It's mostly arguments going in circles. What really makes a difference is adding sourced information and adding sources to information that is already there. And watching out for the sneaky ways people try to delete content that clashes with their thesis. futurebird 02:06, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bell curves

[[Two Curve Bell with Jobs.jpg|thumb|300px|A single bell curve like these two was featured on the cover of the controversial[1][2] book on race and intelligence The Bell Curve. Some regard this book as solid science, while others consider it a modern example of scientific racism.[3][4] These are idealized normal curves comparing the IQs of Blacks and Whites in the US in 1981.[5]]] They used to have a caption like this... but, it's been removed, I don't want to get in to an edit war over this, but don't you think that if these curves are at the top of the page, they need a little historical context? Another question is if the curves are really representivitive of the content of the article at this point? It'd help a lot of you'd share your thoughts on issues like this at the talk page. futurebird 03:22, 17 February 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Graphics

If you come across any data in studies that you think would make a nice graph, let me know and I can plot it out and make it look pretty for wikipedia. I don't have any means of searching papers except for this: http://scholar.google.com/ it's free, and I've found it to be a big help. futurebird 03:24, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ramadan riots

ASA. Desperate help needed on islamophobic article Ramadan riots which is actually the same thing as French riots. Claims that the french unrest in the ghetoes was motivated by hatred of jews and christians as allegedly commanded by the quran. Support speedy deletion. Aaliyah Stevens 00:11, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
