Welcome!
I noticed that you added Quackery to Reiki and Homeopathy. This is good - we need more rational and scientific editors in the area, but since you seem to be somewhat new and you don't seem to have dealt with articles on pseudoscience and quackery before, I should inform you that your edits will be reverted by supporters, and you will most likely be attacked for making these edits, especially if you are persistant in making them (take a look at my user page, for example). In order to keep changes like this, you need to monitor the articles, and be able to support your changes with policy and the core tenets and spirit of Wikipedia. The latter is important, so that you do not become bogged down in wikilawyering. Supporters of quackery and pseudoscience often have quite a bit of time to think about such things, and often will have more time to edit than others. If you have any questions, or need any help, feel free to ask on the WikiProject Pseudoscience talk page (the notice at the top about PNA isn't actually followed by anyone, as can be seen by reading the rest of the page), which usually covers quackery as well. And have fun watching me get attacked for writing this note. -- Philosophus T 21:27, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed you made some changes to the skepticism article recently. Do your changes mean that you don't consider religious skepticism and activist skepticism to be sub-categories of empirical skepticism? The reason I ask is that they were previously listed as types of empirical skepticism, but after your changes they are not. However, the activist skepticism section still says, "Activist skeptics, self-described 'debunkers' are a subset of empirical skeptics." This means that the text of the article is not consistent with your organizational changes. -- JHP 23:25, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
Please remember to mark your edits as minor when (and only when) they genuinely are minor edits (see Wikipedia:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one (and vice versa) is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a 'minor edit'. Thanks! -- apers0n 12:47, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, Honest mistake.
I thought that it was vandalism insultig Penn and Teller (calling their show BS). I guess that I should have followed the link to see that it was the name of a real program.
I'll edit the text a little to make it clearer for other reader who might also be unfamiliar with the program (Opps again, looks like you've already done that. Cheers).

Honestly, I don't know. I know he had an RfC against him about a year ago that went nowhere. I just revert the edits now out of habit. If you find out the next step, I'll join you. Sraan 22:41, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
Hi, I've just started the game using ePSXe and the rom from home of the underdogs. Since I've only just started the plot is not at all clear to me yet. Do you know anywhere where there is a good outline of the plot that I could use to write that section? I'm kind of at a loss at the moment. Cheers, jaco♫ plane 20:53, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
Your input is urgently needed on a spurious AfD [1]. -- Fyslee 23:12, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
A colleague and I are conducting a study on health wikis. We are looking at how wikis co-construct health information and create communities. We noticed that you are a frequent contributor to Wikipedia on health topics.
Please consider taking our survey here.
This research will help wikipedia and other wikis understand how health information is co-created and used.
We are from James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia. Our university research committee approved the project.

The article Moot is a disambiguation article. Its purpose is to disambiguate between articles that have the same, or nearly the same, subject title. There is no such article as Moot (4Chan), so it can't figure on the Moot disambig page, therefore I've removed it again. If you create such an article, you can add a reference to it on the Moot page. -- Concrete Cowboy 13:55, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
All my photos are in the public domain and you are free to edit them in any way you like. I would appreciate it if you credit me for the original photo, but you don't have to. Rgards. Adam 09:33, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Hey there... I see you created Steven Novella as a redirect. I've now created a proper article, I'd appreciate it if you'd have a look. Mikker (...) 12:57, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
I have nominated The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Spartaz Humbug! 14:33, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
I have nominated Bazamataz ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) for discussion. Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at the discussion page. Thank you. EJF ( talk) 19:52, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi. I would like to ask whether you would agree to participate in a short survey on how to cover scientific uncertainties/controversies in articles pertaining to global warming and climate change (survey described here). If interested, please get in touch via my talkpage or email me Encyclopaedia21 ( talk) 17:03, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
Hey Havermayer. Your user page was just vandalized, so I restored it to the current version. If that is not what you want on your user page, my apologies and please feel free to go revert it from the history and/or change it. WikiTome | Talk 08:28, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
Hello Havermayer. See Talk:Metal Gear (series)#Requested move 2. This is the last formal move discussion (July 2010), and you've just undone the result of that discussion. Please move it back, and if you still think it is at the wrong title, open a new move discussion. WP:RM gives advice on how to do that. Thank you, EdJohnston ( talk) 23:42, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at
My Life Me. Your edits appear to constitute
vandalism and have been
reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the
sandbox. Thank you.

Hi, what is your reason for this edit? This would seem completely uncontroversial. What's the objection? In ictu oculi ( talk) 13:18, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
You placed a POV tag on the Justin Trottier article. Can you please explain your reasons on the Discussion page? To date there has been no discussion. Unless one is started the tag will be removed. EncyclopediaUpdaticus ( talk) 22:20, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
