DanP, please stop adding your stuff to childbirth. Pushing a POV agenda is very poorly tolerated on Wikipedia, and only leads to edit wars and banning. Please go and do something else. JFW | T@lk 19:48, 12 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Actually, your other edits have been quite evenhanded. This childbirth stuff was simply getting too far off-topic. JFW | T@lk 21:48, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)
A consensus was reached to mention the negative effect neonatal circumcision may have on breastfeeding in the "Breast refusal" section of the Breastfeeding article.
In my opinion that is the appropriate way to include information about circumcision and how it may adversely affect breastfeeding. I am opposed to adding more information about circumcision to the Breastfeeding article and I am also opposed to deleting the information that is already there. -- DanBlackham 06:38, 26 Oct 2004 (UTC)
I've reverted your latest changes to this article as non-neutral. Please don't take it personally: I agree with many of your edits and have defended them against other users' objections. Please be careful what words you choose when editing articles; some suggest (dis)approval and are thus inherently non-neutral. Exploding Boy 19:23, Dec 8, 2004 (UTC)
DanP, on Wiki, there is something called the Three revert rule. It states:
On the Foreskin restoration page, you've now performed four reverts today. Furthermore, you've failed to make the reverts explicit in the edit summary, disguising them instead. These are the reverts:
- Jakew 19:45, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Well, play nice with each other, I'm sure you'll find it more productive to assume good faith and be fair. Jake could have gone running to an admin and got you blocked for breaking the 3RR, but he didn't. I think he's genuinely interested in working with you and you should try to hammer out your differences in talk. --[[User:Tony Sidaway| Tony Sidaway| Talk]] 23:56, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
In this edit to Gliding action, you reverted the insertion of a TotallyDisputed tag. I have already objected to this, and to your misleading edit summary, on that article's talk page. This act of attempted censorship is totally unjustifiable and unacceptable. Please justify it on that article's talk page, or better still, undo it. - Jakew 19:49, 25 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Please be advised that you have violated the 3 revert rule, which states that each user is only permitted to revert a page three times per day, unless it is a case of obvious vandalism. You can be blocked for up to 24 hours if you violate the 3RR, and I will do so if you continue to revert the page. Thanks for your anticipated cooperation. - Frazzydee| ✍ 21:00, 25 Jan 2005 (UTC)

The block was for 24 hours, and should come off by itself in a few minutes. If it doesn't, I'll undo it manually. Jayjg | (Talk) 22:43, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Dan, I see that the very first change you make after coming back is to describe an edit as vandalism. This was on your user page ("rv repeated user page vandalism by Robert the Bruce"). Vandalism is replacing a page with "cock shit balls", and it upsets people to describe their edits as such, even if you strongly disagree with them. It would help to create a more peaceful atmosphere at Wiki if you chose a different term. - Jakew 23:12, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)
You chose to attack me on your user page (note: now deleted). Concerning vandalism:
Yes, each will doubtless follow similar accusations by yourself. Childish? Yes. Irresponsible? Yes. Can you find anything after November 2004? I doubt it. I can change. Can you? - Jakew 00:03, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Dan, could you remove the inflammatory material from your user page? Although I don't agree with Jake and Robert's activities on the page I think you're doing the wrong thing in using the page as a forum to air your grievances. The right thing to do if you have a problem with someone else's conduct is to go to RfC and put your opinion into RfC form. There is already a [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Robert the Bruce|RfC on Robert the Bruce] so you could add your complaint to that if you'd prefer not to start your own.
See Robert the Bruce's "list of anti-circumcision activists" (or similar) on his user page. You know, people do this type of thing all the time on their user pages, but I don't think there's any specific policy that deals with it. Exploding Boy 16:26, Jan 27, 2005 (UTC)
I recommend you tell Sidaway your feelings. DanP 14:55, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Well, then that would be just called GM, not FGM. Please use the google. The word FGM is used specifically in reference to female circumcision carried out in African countries. The US State Department also uses the word in this context. See [7] OneGuy 20:01, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Hey DanP, I noticed your avid support for one of the slogans on the VfD and was wondering if you'd mind putting some of your opinions about political slogans at Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#Inclusion of Slogans as Separate Articles. Everyone there so far is in favour of deleting them (myself included), but it would be nice to hear the other half of the debate (if indeed there is one). Thanks for your time! Regards, [[User:Consequencefree| Ardent † ∈]] 22:16, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
If there is an issue of fact, raise it on the talk page please and we can discuss it. Your changes are not improvements; while they don't change the meaning much, I can't see that they make it any better. I am tired of reading that your changes are "NPOVing" when you can't even explain on the talk page what POV you are removing, and you admit you are here simply to advocate a single extreme POV. I mean single POV in the most literal and accurate sense. Single-- you have no interest but genital surgeries and procedures, and extreme --- your viewpoint is that of a small proportion of the population (I am against circumcision, and I can't even understand your perspective), and POV-- you are willing to add any info no matter how trivial or rare that seems to support your pov no matter whether it distorts or misrepresents facts about a topic by overemphasis, lack of balance, or what is omitted. I stay away from the circumcision articles. Please don't mess with the other medical ones. alteripse 01:01, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
You ask why you are met with hostility? (1) Because each of your changes in the articles I wrote claims that you are correcting POV but in none of them did you explain what POV you are correcting. (2) You accused me of suppressing iatrogenic problems but you clearly didn't read the article. (3) You removed important meaningful information, twice. I have worked hard on these articles. I am willing to discuss any questions or pov issues on the talk pages with civility and reasonableness. Try starting there if you think an article doesn't present all sides or has inaccurate info instead of starting with unexplained deletions and unsubstantiated accusations and you might be surprised how civil I can be. alteripse 04:14, 12 Feb 2005 (UTC)
The arbcom case against Robert the Bruce has closed. As a result, you are advised to re-read Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy, with particular attention to the idea that NPOV includes all significant points of view regarding any subject on which there is division of opinion.

Please see the final decision for details. -- Grun t 🇪🇺 23:48, 2005 Feb 18 (UTC)
I'm a little bothered by this template, as it appears laudatory. Though the ribbon is the actual symbol of the supporters of genital integrity, when applied to an article in such a manner, it appears to be an endorsement or sign of support for the position, rather than a NPOV categorization of a subject. Perhaps another image could be used, or none at all? I doubt there is a need for such a stub-sorting template anyway, and I note there are only three such stub articles at present. Furthermore, there is an organized process for creating new stub-sorting templates at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Criteria, and I do not see that yours was first discussed there. Please list your template on that page and present your reasons as to why it is necessary. Thanks! Postdlf 22:14, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Hi DanP. I get the impression we're at cross purposes over our edits of the vivisection article. What in particular don't you like about the 'disputed paragraph'? I genuinely don't understand. I want to try and work this out so this damn revert war can stop. As you can imagine, I don't see anything wrong with how it has stood. That is, if you want to do *any* work with humans, even just asking them *questions* you need ethical approval. The link I provided was evidence to that, and not limited to "some research centres". The ethical review process for human experimentation is the visible result of laws on work on humans. G.hartig 00:37, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Not really. The section is on human vivisection, and the paragraph starts with "Human volunteers...". Slaughterhouses have nothing to do with it. Instead of deleting the paragraph, how about referencing something that disproves that "Human volunteers can consent to be subjects for invasive experiments which may involve, for example, the taking of tissue samples (biopsies), the implantation of catheters, or other procedures which require surgery on the volunteer. These procedures must be approved by ethical review..." I've started, by finding a reference that supports the statement. G.hartig 00:11, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
DanP, please be advised that you have violated the 3 revert rule, which states that each user is only permitted to revert a page three times per day, unless it is a case of obvious vandalism. As you know due to previous penalties, you can be blocked for up to 24 hours if you violate the 3RR. The page you violated the rule on was Erection ( hist) with the following edits:
07:06, 16 July 2005 DanP (rv. edit which includes incomplete and off-topic data) 06:39, 16 July 2005 DanP (rv. according to precedent, see talk page) 18:54, 15 July 2005 DanP (Not at all, it is also unpiered, unscarified, and unsubincised. Be honest here.) 17:42, 15 July 2005 DanP (Further clarification)
All four of these edits involved a dispute over a particular word in a caption on a photo. All four involved changing the word back to your preferred version. Nandesuka 14:07, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
Hi there! In an effort to make the article here on AIDS the best possible before trying to submit it as a " Featured Article", I've looked up some active submitters in the last month or so and found you. Please, take a little time to go by the AIDS article and it's Talk page to see how you can help. One rather large source of confusion and complication, the References/External Links section, has just been cleaned and polished, thus your experience should be much more tolerable in general ;).
AIDS is a very serious world wide issue; never before have we needed to spread AIDS education as much as we do now. We need as many people as possible working together to make this article on AIDS the best it can be. Hope to see your contributions soon! JoeSmack (talk) 23:47, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
Thank you for agreeing with proposal to use the term intact rather than uncircumcised in the main circumcision article. Not to sound melodramatic but its become clear that pro circumcision POV pushers are censoring wikipedia uninhibitedly, which can be seen in their attempt to remove the article Aposthia and vandalizing the disambiguation page at uncircumcised to eliminate any other interpretations of the word supported by the dictionary that they feel improves their political agenda. For the sake of intellectual freedom I emplore you to look into these matters and make choice about how you will respond. Thanks again. Sirkumsize 23:44, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:SamiAldeeb.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:EdgarSchoen.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rette tast 18:57, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:MarilynMilos.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
{{

, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

The article Tim Hammond (activist) has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{ prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Dismas| (talk) 02:12, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

That is, if you want to do *any* work with humans, even just asking them *questions* you need ethical approval. The link I provided was evidence to that, and not limited to "some research centres". The ethical review process for human experimentation is the visible result of laws on work on humans. G.hartig 00:37, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Not really. The section is on human vivisection, and the paragraph starts with "Human volunteers...". Slaughterhouses have nothing to do with it. Instead of deleting the paragraph, how about referencing something that disproves that "Human volunteers can consent to be subjects for invasive experiments which may involve, for example, the taking of tissue samples (biopsies), the implantation of catheters, or other procedures which require surgery on the volunteer. These procedures must be approved by ethical review..." I've started, by finding a reference that supports the statement. G.hartig 00:11, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
DanP, please be advised that you have violated the 3 revert rule, which states that each user is only permitted to revert a page three times per day, unless it is a case of obvious vandalism. As you know due to previous penalties, you can be blocked for up to 24 hours if you violate the 3RR. The page you violated the rule on was Erection ( hist) with the following edits:
07:06, 16 July 2005 DanP (rv. edit which includes incomplete and off-topic data) 06:39, 16 July 2005 DanP (rv. according to precedent, see talk page) 18:54, 15 July 2005 DanP (Not at all, it is also unpiered, unscarified, and unsubincised. Be honest here.) 17:42, 15 July 2005 DanP (Further clarification)
All four of these edits involved a dispute over a particular word in a caption on a photo. All four involved changing the word back to your preferred version. Nandesuka 14:07, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
Hi there! In an effort to make the article here on AIDS the best possible before trying to submit it as a " Featured Article", I've looked up some active submitters in the last month or so and found you. Please, take a little time to go by the AIDS article and it's Talk page to see how you can help. One rather large source of confusion and complication, the References/External Links section, has just been cleaned and polished, thus your experience should be much more tolerable in general ;).
AIDS is a very serious world wide issue; never before have we needed to spread AIDS education as much as we do now. We need as many people as possible working together to make this article on AIDS the best it can be. Hope to see your contributions soon! JoeSmack (talk) 23:47, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
Thank you for agreeing with proposal to use the term intact rather than uncircumcised in the main circumcision article. Not to sound melodramatic but its become clear that pro circumcision POV pushers are censoring wikipedia uninhibitedly, which can be seen in their attempt to remove the article Aposthia and vandalizing the disambiguation page at uncircumcised to eliminate any other interpretations of the word supported by the dictionary that they feel improves their political agenda. For the sake of intellectual freedom I emplore you to look into these matters and make choice about how you will respond. Thanks again. Sirkumsize 23:44, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:SamiAldeeb.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Chowbok ☠ 18:30, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:EdgarSchoen.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rette tast 18:57, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:MarilynMilos.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
{{
di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast ( talk) 23:58, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

The article Tim Hammond (activist) has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{ prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Dismas| (talk) 02:12, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
