This page has archives. Sections older than 90 days may be automatically archived by Lowercase sigmabot III when more than 4 sections are present.

Dreadstar, I'm not sure how this stuff works, but it looks to me like this edit of yours has set Miszabot to archive this page pretty aggressively (archiving threads more than 7 days old). Is that it? If so, what for? That's the way blindingly busy talkpages like Talk:William Shakespeare are archived. The slow-moving talkpages of obscure pages like Natasha Demkina will normally be archived by hand, when they get too long to load easily. Currently, this page covers discussion back to 2007, and it's still not particularly long! Surely it's useful for newer editors to have easy access to earlier discussions right on the page itself, so they don't have to keep re-inventing the wheel? I have only slightly edited your template (fixing a typo). Perhaps it has a purpose I don't understand. But if I'm right about what it does, I would ask you to remove it.

Hey Bish, thanks for fixing the typo in the mizabot configuration. The aggressive timing was only a temporarily setting meant to quickly archive the very old sections going back to 2007; I planned to increase the length of time after the first pass. I've gone ahead and changed it to 90 days instead of a week. Hopefully that's satisfactory for everyone! Dreadstar ☥ 17:15, 19 August 2012 (UTC) reply

I see. Thanks. Bishonen | talk 18:24, 19 August 2012 (UTC). reply

The text in the lead Center of Special Diagnostics of the Natalya Demkina (TSSD) is clearly the product of a translation tool. I'm not competent to do a better job, but I suggest Demkina Center of Special Diagnostics (TSSD). From the initials it's hard to see where Natalya comes in.

Unfortunately, this awkward wording STILL has not been fixed by some-one who is competent. Please help! Kdammers ( talk) 05:42, 3 October 2013 (UTC) reply

According to the newspapers ( http://www.kp.ru/daily/23641/48779/) back in 2006 she was working for the Center of special human diagnostics (Russian: Центр специальной диагностики человека), perhaps still existing in Moscow. But for sure it was not hers. Maybe someone will settle the problem? Igor Makhankov ( talk) 08:54, 11 January 2014 (UTC) reply

"The Tokyo test was reviewed by three Japanese experts: the occult critic Hajime Yuumu, the psychologist Hiroyuki Ishii, and the Tondemo-bon Society skeptic Hiroshi Yamamoto. The results of Dr. Machi's tests and a panel discussion by the three critics aired on Fuji Television on May 12, 2005." So, what were their takes? Kdammers ( talk) 05:44, 3 October 2013 (UTC) reply
