[edit] WikiProject Harry Potter

Hello, Deus ex machina. Over at WikiProject Harry Potter we're trying to compile a list of active participants. Your name, along with all other project participants, has been placed on the inactive list. If you'd like to get involved again, please place your name back on the active list, and take a look at the project talk page for the latest happenings.

[edit] Information war

I have decided to contact various (and I trust, neutral) administrators and users over a subject that I have followed very closely, but in fear of my own reputation, will not reveal my identity in association with. I would have to say that I am now very concerned.

It may have come to your attention that a lot of information has been removed from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adult-child_sex / http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Adult-child_sex, with barely any discussion or consensus. The article started off very much like that archived by another user: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Tlatosmd/Adult-child_sex. Although there were many users voting for and contributing to similar versions, most of the controversial anthropological material was removed at times of low interest, with the article eventually being wiped from the server by the admin Herostratus, and turned in to a links page: again without any discussions. Now, only a tiny bit of the old article remains, on the clumsily and swiftly re-named http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adult-older_teen_sex / http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Adult-older_teen_sex.

My own instinct would be to call this out as an information "purge" and ask for a revert at the very least, so that we can discuss any changes in the usual way, or with a vote such as the one which gave the green light to the now absent article. 208.131.130.235 (talk) 17:17, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] ACS

You and I both got a message (from 208.131.130.235 regarding the Adult-child sex article and all it's incarnations. I would like to point out that an effort to rerite this article back into a thorough, referenced, and NPOV (truly NPOV, not PAW-POV) has been undertaken recently. The hope is to take information and references from past versions that were somewhat stable (or at least good-quality) and piece them together, reference and re-reference them, and expand upon the article in general.
You can see that effort here.
Further, I would invite you to join in it's rewriting effort. Any assistance in expanding and referencing would be quite appreciated.
With any luck (editor help), this can be completed before February and completely replace the ACS article through superior content (and somehow fight off the "Big Three" that irradicated the original article).
Thoughts and comment welcome. VigilancePrime (talk) 01:36, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
