[edit] Reply

Ok well it probably was a little over enthusiastic its just that its my favorite game and by the time i was done i was about to gnaw off my typing hand so it would just stop writing about the game and let me play it. Its really addicting and I've gone through about 20 or so cleanup phases in the week or so its been up. Compare it to the original and only about 4 sentences of starting text remain. So it actually became that way on the reccomendations of a few other gamers and most of it is pretty much a cleaned up port directly from the player made wiki.

[edit] Robert Spencer

Why did you do that revert on that page?--CltFn 20:40, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, had just installed the popup tool and reverted unintentionally. I feel a bit stupid. LeContexte 21:08, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Ok then kindly go to that page and undo your edit. thanks--CltFn 21:11, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Done. I meant to do that earlier, but think I forgot to save. I guess I'm just not firing on all cylinders today. LeContexte 21:18, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Srebrenica Massacre - Living Marxism

Although notionally a Marxist group the Revolutionary Communist Party group which has been the driving force behind Living Marxism and its successors and associates in the Spiked-Online constellation behaves in many ways as a group on the libertarian right wing would. This may be opportunism or deep strategy but either way they criticise progressive humanitarianism and support pro-big business campaigns. --Opbeith 18:17, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Indeed. Their methods of organisation (centralised and entryist) are Trotskyist but, as you say, their politics have little in common with most of the left. Trying to find a one word to summarise them is difficult - "Odd" works for me, but is hardly NPOV. LeContexte 21:20, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Apology for error in Respect edit note

Just a belated apology for an edit note in the Respect history, that wrongly names you as being responsible for 'SWP bias'. It's been bugging me as I left your name and can't correct it! Sorry!

I've gone back to it a couple of times now, to try and see how I made the error - and I still can't quite work how it happened. By way of excuse,

Someone had a go at a couple of edits of mine in one big change, re-inserting the false statement that Galloway had left Respect etc (which I had corrected in a single edit, with an explanatory edit note), rather sneakily alongside removing a number of my edits lower down on the page (which was the only thing he referred in his edit note). I used 'undo' on a comparison page, saying the Galloway edit was 'SWP bias'.

I later thought the Galloway part wasn't anything to do with him, so I apologised to him at the end of my next edit note, and added who I thought was responsible for it. (a needless addition by me anyway, I know.) How I suddenly came to the conclusion it was you I still can't see! As it was due to my first (and so far only) revert I looked pretty carefully at the history too - and your own concise edit was pretty straightforward.

I've been scratching my head over it on a couple of occasions. I had hitherto preferred edits to reverts - this was a total mess, so I'll be sticking to my old approach in future! --Matt Lewis (talk) 18:59, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Not a problem, and thank you for being so conscientious. LeContexte (talk) 20:21, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Neutrality Barnstar

		The Barnstar
		For courageous work maintaining neutrality on Archaeology and the Book of Mormon. -- Noleander (talk) 19:18, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Book of Mormon

QUOTING YOUR EDIT NOTE:

"the fact is that there is essentially zero support for the historicity of the Book of Mormon outside the LDS church."

I think a statement of this moment needs to be examined and sourced, not simply tucked away in an edit note. Can we please discuss this in the Book of Mormon talk page? I'm starting a new section there for the purpose.

Thank you, Wanderer57 (talk) 18:27, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. I appreciate your response on the Book of Mormon talk page. Wanderer57 (talk) 23:49, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

While I I accept your edit of my edit I fail to see how it was pure POV while I admit after rereading it that it could be construed as POV it is a fact that many promising links have been put forward. Also thank you for correcting my spelling of majority don't know how I missed that. In essence though it's not that you deleted it I have accepted the change and think the article is better without it, it's that you judge my intentions as being POV when my goal was simply to present both sides. So to clarify thank you for the edit but the comment of "Pure POV" was unfounded. Sorry for doing this here but I am still very new at editing wiki and it's talk pages and don't know how to add new sections to the talk pages.Aqulias Regalis Thor (talk) 07:55, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Blood Electrification

Hello, I notice you placed an AFD notice on this article, but did not open an AFD. Did you mean to bundle this into the AFD for Bioelectrification? I think if that was the case, you may have to open a new, seperate AFD for blood electrification anyway, as discussion is already underway. Someguy1221 (talk) 20:01, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

It is fixed now, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Blood electrification (2nd nomination). Please drop a note on TPH's talkpage as he is the one who fixed it for you --Lenticel ^(talk) 00:39, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] U.S. gravity control propulsion initiative

Thank you for identifying the citation error. The references to Kaiser's and Infeld's papers were moved to the correct segments of the article. Intel has been returned to the text. It is the name the article was published under. The editor of Interavia states this. Tcisco (talk) 00:18, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mormonism and history merge proposal

Please weigh in on the merger proposal between History of the Latter Day Saint movement and Mormonism and history. I saw that you were a recent contributor of one of the pages in question, and thought you would be interested.--Descartes1979 (talk) 21:27, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Chiasmus in the Book of Mormon merge proposal

Please weigh in on the merger proposal between Chiasmus in the Book of Mormon and Linguistics and the Book of Mormon. I saw that you were a recent contributor of one of the pages in question, and thought you would be interested.--Descartes1979 (talk) 21:37, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Morphic field cleanup?

I've been watching Morphic field for some weeks but have been afraid to get too involved with trying to do any major maintainance work on it lest I run into the sort of nastiness/fanaticism I found back last winter when I tried to inject some reality into Animal rights.

Are you interested in trying to trim it and correct it to a more NPOV or are you just passing through and flagged it because it is so obviously POV?

I'd hesitate to get involved in any serious effort in trying to fix such a topic unless there was someone else who wanted to try to keep up with the process during times I got tired or had to take a break for the rest of the world. A fifty cent analogy is "rust never sleeps but painting is a chore".Trilobitealive (talk) 02:30, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

If you want to participate look at Morphic field for the last few of my edits to see the sort of cleanup changes I'd propose. Easier to show than to tell.Trilobitealive (talk) 03:10, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Egyptian Names Merge Proposal

As you are a recent editor of the articles in question, please see my merge proposal of Linguistics and the Book of Mormon#Egyptian names and Egyptian names in the Book of Mormon - thanks. --Descartes1979 (talk) 21:24, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Perpetual motion machine template

You added the perpetual motion machine template to the John Bedini article. Someone is suggesting it be deleted - see Talk:John Bedini#This is not perpetual motion. —mjb (talk) 09:39, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
