[edit] Quotation

I think the quotation on your user page should be attributed to somebody, anonymous if nothing else. It looks ambivalent to have a quotation thrown out without reference; it almost communicates plagiarism.

--Whiteknox 23:18, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

I removed the quotation marks. Hope that's satisfactory. All the best, --John Foxe 10:55, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Quiverfull article

Any thoughts on the NPOV issue brought up there? CyberAnth 01:58, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

I think it does display NPOV. Of course this is extremely subjective, but I think that it is reasonable for a page to display its subject in the best light while remaining objective, and this article does that as does most other well-written pages I have read. The negative section that talks about "mindguards" especially indicates that this page does not suppress information purely on the basis of contradiction to a point of view. I think I agree with changing the tag. -- Whiteknox 02:14, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

I appreciate the perspective, bro, especially since the person who made the charge as been silent since making it. I will most definitely fully understand if no, but would you be willing to also state your opinion on the Quiverfull page? I realize the page also needs citations, which I have them but have been stopped up by the dispute. Weasel words will go at the same time. CyberAnth 06:07, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
I ended up adding lots of cites and removed most WWs tonight. CyberAnth 09:10, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

  1. By wanting my support did you mean you want me to post on the talk page? I don't think I want to get into making content changes to the article.
  2. Is the controversy about the article being biased towards QF position or biased against it?
It doesn't look to me like the person who placed the tag is willing to show his head; have you tried looking up who did it in the history of the page? Maybe you can contact him on his talk page. --Whiteknox 16:34, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mark Sanford

After reviewing the talk page, like you suggested, I decided to remove the "Libertarian" category tag. Perhaps it's not quite accurate after all. Thanks for the input. --JayJasper --Thanks. --Whiteknox 01:55, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jim Berg

I haven't taken a look at "Jim Berg" for a long time. He's certainly more notable than Pokemon characters and other emphemera of popular culture that seem to be treated overly seriously here. Let's see what can be done. Thanks for your interest.--John Foxe 20:13, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

I am trying to suggest an addition to the "Search engine" article but I'm probably going about it the wrong way. Can you assist me with this? My suggestion can be found on the last item on the discussion page of the article. Thanks --Yoav Pridor 05:09, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Picsearch

Could you please have a look at Picsearch and comment on what you think of the tags at top? --Ceas webmaster 16:44, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm working on a to-do list for it. It has some problems, but most of the content can be saved if it is put into a more encyclopedia-like style. --Whiteknox 18:12, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your input on the Picsearch article. I have made some more changes that I hope you like. --Carl Sarnstrand 20:41, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

I have tried to comply to demands in the article discussion and in my talk. Please read and review new version of the article. --Carl Sarnstrand 23:23, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
