Are you a bad guy?

Re: Am I a bad guy, well, yes, technically, if you give a narrow read to Simulated_MediaWiki_interfaces; we are, both of us, simulating a rather minor aspect of the mediaWiki interface, thereby potentially misleading hapless readers, but you are in good company, so far as I'm concerned. And we are, both of us, very small fry at this game of user interface simulation. Consider larger fry, such as Certified.Gangsta. Remarkably, hapless readers might think, they always get new messages whenever they visit good old Certified.Gansta. Until, of course, they try to read their new messages. Then they might think differently of good old Certified.Gansta. Such UI spoofing engenders extensive discussion. But then, almost anything engenders extensive discussion on Misplaced Pages, because, no matter how fine a point may be, there's always a Misplaced Pages editor willing to make it finer. I'm of the school that it is always better to ask for forgiveness than permission, so have fun — in a verifiable way that does not entail original research or a less-than-neutral viewpoint.

Thanks for your help. I checked out Simulated_MediaWiki_interfaces and don't see what I did listed as a no no. Of course, as you said, somebody somewhere probably won't like it, but that seems to be true of everything on Misplaced Pages. I'm trying to avoid causing myself problems, especially for something as trivial as my user page. Thanks! Wakedream (talk) 06:17, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

gymnophobia

The problem with these unusual phobia articles is lack of serious references. Please keep in mind that sites like , have obvious conflict of interest and hence credibility for their information is low. Please see -phob-#Phobia lists. Also, they do not provide source of their information. A reasonable criterion for an encyclopedia is to see an article in a serious medical book or journal. Also an entry in a dictionary is good for wiktionary, not for wikipedia. Please notice, for example, thst this webpage also gives neither source of the info nor the authorship by a reputable person, hence it is not reliable reference for wikipedia.

That said, good luck in finding good sources. `'Míkka>t 04:18, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm still thinking about doing an article, but will definitely want your comments on it. Thanks for your help! Wakedream (talk) 07:11, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
