[edit] Revert
Please explain this [1]. An unexplained revert (often called 'blind') is not a good way to start off your editing experience. The Behnam 16:49, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Note
I also notice that you are a "gay rights activist." While there certainly isn't anything wrong with that, you should probably pay particular attention to the Wikipedia policy demanding a neutral point of view while editing, as its goals generally do not agree with those of activism.

[edit] Behnam Reply
Look, I'm a gay rights activist. You are the opposite, or so it seems. When I read the discussion page on homosexuality you seemed to defend a theory which puts you in a place lacking neutrality as well. I reverted because I believed your changes were not in the best interest of the article. Jimcperry 18:50, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
- How am I the opposite? Why aren't the changes in the best interest of the article? Which interest is the "best" interest? And what do you suppose my "interest" is? I'm trying to assume good faith with you (despite the fact that you seem unusually fluent with the Wiki for a new user) - all I ask is that you assume good faith with me as well. Thanks and regards, The Behnam 19:23, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
- I'm a very fast learner and appreciate that you noticed my skill. I like to take my time learning things so that I get it "right" the first time. Doesn't always work out that way, but I _do_ try. Now, I didn't think it was in the best interest of the article because you seemed to simply blow off everyone else's opinion on the talk page when making your edit. I think it best to let the discussion continue to a logical conclusion and then make a decision. Just my opinion.--Jimcperry 19:29, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
- Alright. I hope that you'll also participate in the discussion on the talk page as well. I've brought a new proposal out based upon some additional information I've received - I encourage you to express your opinion on the matter. Have a good one. The Behnam 19:47, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Meredith Gartner and Gartner Goldsmith images
On 04:42, 9 October 2007 you uploaded this image [2] but it seems you have mistakenly uploaded an image of Gardner Goldsmith over an image of Meredith Gardner. Tnx
If I knew how, I would have done it before.--Jimcperry 17:40, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
- An admin already reverted it on 11 October 2007. I guess you can delete this section.
