[edit] Inactive members

• Maprov^(Founder)
• Jokermage ^{Not in right now, leave me a message}

  Reason: I have other things that I need to be focusing on, so I won't be able to participate in this project as much as I'd like. I'll still be watching this page to keep up with current events. If you feel the need to respond, please do it on my talk page. 06:51, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

• Hob Gadling

  Same reason here. --Hob Gadling 20:09, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

• —Nightstallion (?)

I lack the time due to other wikiactivities, but still consider myself part of this particular WikiProject in spirit. =]

• Feureau

Same reason here. Feureau 10:46, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

• Bubba73 ^talk - Joined 1/31/06. I was active on pseudoscience articles, but I had to cut down on my Wikipedia hours, so I'm mostly inactive now.
• Askolnick: alternative medicine, quackery, transcendental mediation, creationism/Intelligent design, science & medical journalism, and other areas of pseudoscience --He blanked his user page and left with the comment "Wikipedia is really not worth the enormous effort to write and edit articles and protect them from the myriad of Vandal tribes seeking to plunder the popularity of this source. Fighting against the dishonest changes of anonymous, often Single Purpose Account editors, is just not worth it." Let's hope it's just a temporary bout of wikistress, but perhaps we can contact him and encourage him to come back. Edhubbard 11:29, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
• Jamie Guinn 07:38, 27 February 2007 (UTC) Will check in time to time and help when I can.
