[edit] Removal of content from Talk:David McDaniel
This is coming several months after-the-fact, as I only just discovered this. Under Wikipedia rules and acting in my role as an administrator, I have removed your listing of Wikipedia editors, their real names, and contact information. Since this occurred back in June and was not caught by anyone until now (October), there's no point in me giving you anything other than a "friendly" on this and deleting the content in question; posting such personal information is normally grounds for banning editors. I have also replied to your original comments (again months after the fact - sorry); I understand your frustration regarding citing sources. Believe me, I've been on the receiving end so much that I rarely actually add new content to Wikipedia anymore, especially material of which I have a personal connection. 23skidoo 15:18, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Jean Marie Stine
Hi you contributed briefly to this article, do you know if this is the same person who writes self help boooks such as [1], oor whether that's a different person with the same name? This article seems to have been written by the person themselves. Merkinsmum 21:25, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
I don't know for sure, but I do know that Jean Marie has written books. The Science-Fiction books under that name are by her.
There's a limit to what I could say in the article proper, but Jean Marie was born Henry Eugene Stine. When I first met him (around 1966) he was thin, very intense, and heavily into Objectivism. Also a flaming wacko.
I've only met Jean Marie a few times since she became a woman, but my impression is that she is still thin, perhaps a little less intense -- and still a flaming wacko. I remember meeting her at the 1984 World SF Convention, looking at this tall, thin woman, hearing her talk, and thinking, "same voice, same flake". Of course, it's the flaming wackos that accomplish everything significant in the world. I have two papers published in computing journals; she has written dozens of books (some of them porno), and edited several anthologies.
Yes, I suspect that JM wrote part of her own article. There's still a little bit of coyness there about the Henry Stine identity and other gender matters. For example, the article says 'Her novel "Season of the Witch"...' But that book was originally published under the name Henry Stine. Bgoldnyxnet (talk) 16:41, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
