I believe that the idea of Postgenderism and the man George Dvorsky should be separated back into two articles on the aspect that one is a idea and one is a man simple enough for me. -- Kylehamilton 02:02, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
This article itself will soon be facing deletion if it there are no third party reliable sources about the author. This is not a criticism of the subject or his views: the article would be much stronger and more effective if it were better sourced. DGG 01:10, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
What is the evidence for Dvorsky being an animal rights activist? SlimVirgin (talk) 21:10, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
" 'Astrosociobiology' on Wikipedia A number of months ago I created the astrosociobiology entry in Wikipedia. It's been fascinating watching my original entry become progressively refined and elaborated upon. I made a number of changes to it recently myself, so check it out and feel free to contribute." [1] DGG ( talk) 08:07, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Can you explain why you rv'ed my removal of these? It's totally unsupported--linking to an article where he uses a word (or where he doesn't, in the case of the "postgenderism" ref) doesn't support the idea that he coined that word or claims to have coined that word.

::Oh, and which thread above? I don't see anything that's obviously relevant.

This article is written largely as a advertisement. So I've flagged it for cleanup. And Dvorsky should please recuse himself from editing the page. Michaelbusch ( talk) 23:25, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
From Acceleration Watch's Futurist (definition): Common Types of Futures Thinking page:
There are others types of futurists. Can someone contact George Dvorsky to ask him to read that page to let us know what kind of futurist he is even he doesn't think he is an agenda-driven futurist? -- Loremaster ( talk) 21:45, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
I just added the {{ Google+}} external link to this article, however it was quickly reverted with an edit summary "we don't link to social networking sites when subject has another web presence (blog) ples already used as a ref". I believe that is reading the "rules" too closely, and there is no harm done in including the link in the External links section. By the way, the link used in the reference (the Google+ "about" page) is not the same as the link used in the "External links" section (the top-most page). I have added a heap of similar links, and never met this sort of resistance, so ... I'll unwatch this page, move on, and let local editors decide whether links that might aid our readership should be avoid purely because of "rules" (rules and guidelines which are filled with wording such as "...should not normally...").

This article needed a bit of clean-up to make it less like a vanity page written by the subject himself. The section on Dyson spheres was almost 800 words long and had no relevance to the subject of the article at all until the last two sentences, which themselves seem written to (and by?) the subject to be flattering. Moreover, I think that the dust-up on io9 over an ethically questionable post that required a retraction and apology from both the subject and the editor-in-chief of that publication bears mentioning. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.49.145.111 ( talk) 20:55, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
