Bailey article
ProudAGP: regarding your edits to the Michael Bailey article, I suggest that it might have been better to remove the 'Scientific misconduct' and 'Academic scandals' categories, since they could be read as implying that Bailey is in the wrong and his critics are right. I've started a discussion about this on the talk page. Skoojal (talk) 22:29, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
Don't sign in the articles!
Please do not sign your edits to articles. It is not needed. Furthermore it is a good idea to discuss such changes on the talk page before hand. Thankyou. --Hfarmer (talk) 22:13, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
Please refrain from personal attacks
Hello ProudAGP--
You may find this gives helpful guidance on Staying cool when the editing gets hot. I hope we can find a way to work on articles together where you can remain calm and productive. Thanks. Jokestress (talk) 16:03, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
Identifying yourself
It was obvious from the onset who User:James Cantor was from his idiosyncratic writing style and POV. I applaud his decision to be open and honest and hope you will consider doing the same. You are of course under no obligation to do so. I feel it would be helpful for you to identify yourself, since you are engaged in editing articles in which you have a personal stake. It would allow disinterested editors to make better judgments regarding your potential conflict of interest in editing certain topics. Jokestress (talk) 16:56, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
That video.
So your telling me that's the book that the video was attached to. The one with "Juanita". :-/ I'd rather not watch that. It is interesting though to have that reference so that people who are interested could watch it.
Don't really know what it could tell me that I don't know myself already. --Hfarmer (talk) 17:31, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
