Hi justin. I tried IceChat but got only "Host not found". Am new to IRc and must do something wrong. Anyways, you found my list of links silly in the See also section in the article Suffering, and looking at it from your point of view I found it silly too. I tried something else and would like to have your opinion if you please. Robert Daoust 00:28, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi Joe--be careful about using automated edit summaries when you're mass-reverting edits by new editors. While VRCOutreach may have had a conflict of interest, it's worth noting that that the links s/he added weren't spam or vandalism. (The NIH's Vaccine Research Center would seem to be at least relevant to the pages where the link was added, and it's a public agency.) It's important not to WP:BITE new editors by using edit summaries that imply that their good-faith edits are vandalism. Cheers, TenOfAllTrades( talk) 18:27, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
Hi,
A couple of months ago, I stuck in a link to the Athenian Robotics Collective's website under The Athenian School article. The history shows that you removed it because it was 'spammy.' Being a novice editor, I was wondering what would constitute that comment. I reinserted the link, but hopefully it is not 'spammy' this time. Thanks.

PS-- Question of interest, are you an alum of Athenian? You seem to have visited and edited the entry a lot.

Hi, JoeSmack I need your help. I am working on a research project at Boston College, studying creation of medical information on Wikipedia. You are being contacted because you have been identified as an important contributor to one or more articles.
Would you will be willing to answer a few questions about your experience? We've done considerable background research, but we would also like to gather the insight of the actual editors. Details about the project can be found at the user page of the project leader, geraldckane. Survey questions can be found at geraldckane/medsurvey. Your privacy and confidentiality will be strictly protected!
The questions should only take a few minutes. I hope you will be willing to complete the survey, as we do value your insight. Please do not hesitate to contact me or Professor Kane if you have any questions. Thank You, BCproject ( talk) 17:34, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi - just a little feedback - the operation to install a cochlear implant doesn't always destroy all residual hearing these days (certainly it used to). Depending on the person, some can sometimes be preserved (in the lower frequency region of the basilar membrane, where the electrodes don't go). That doesn't happen in the majority though, as far as I know. It's not a major point, I just saw your edit comment, thought you might be interested.

I just changed Rouge test to "C-class", as I noted that it was unassessed; it almost certainly meets the B-class requirements, I simply didn't have time to run through all the checks for that at this time.
I suggest, perhaps after DYK, that you get a peer review, and look at heading towards good article status.

Thanks for your welcome and introduction Joe. However, not every one on wikipedia is as welcoming. I got half way through writing my first entry on Astronomical Society of New South Wales, got called away so saved it noting in the comments that I was in the process of fleshing it out, and returned a few hours later to find it's been marked for deletion! Before I'd even finished writing it! So I've heard stories that wikipedia is a "closed shop" and "newbies" are jumped upon, and discouraged by some of the "old boys club". I was sceptical, but find on my first foray in wikipedia that they seem to be true. So thanks for your welcome, but the teeth-marks of your fellow-wikipedians tell me that newbies are not actually very welcome here. StarryMan ( talk) 11:24, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

Please help me understand why did you delete all my inputs? I worked so hard and I didn't even back it up somewhere, so now it's gone. I tried to include references for everything I say. I see there is quotes on here where people say for example that it is a misunderstanding that Swedenborgianism is occult. They don't include references, its just somebody's opinion, and you allow it. When I however say why it is occult, with references, it just gets rejected. It sounds rather "one sided" if you know what I mean?

Thanks for the welcome to Wikipedia. I've actually been lurking here for around four years now, spending alot of time reading and copyediting as necessary - I'm a proud grammar Nazi! I'll need to finally start learning how to use Wikipedia so I can do more than copyediting and small contributions, but I'm using the beta, so my experience will likely be more streamlined. Are you using the beta as well? If so, what have you to say about it? BTW, I noticed you have a psychology degree. I'm currently taking psychology in my senior year of high school, and it's quite intriguing. The reading I've done on Wikipedia over the years has given me an excellent background for the class, and consequently, I frequently surprise my teacher and classmates with my knowledge.

(The NIH's Vaccine Research Center would seem to be at least relevant to the pages where the link was added, and it's a public agency.) It's important not to WP:BITE new editors by using edit summaries that imply that their good-faith edits are vandalism. Cheers, TenOfAllTrades( talk) 18:27, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
Hi,
A couple of months ago, I stuck in a link to the Athenian Robotics Collective's website under The Athenian School article. The history shows that you removed it because it was 'spammy.' Being a novice editor, I was wondering what would constitute that comment. I reinserted the link, but hopefully it is not 'spammy' this time. Thanks.

PS-- Question of interest, are you an alum of Athenian? You seem to have visited and edited the entry a lot.

We've been testing out a bot to select articles based on WikiProject assessments (quality and importance, with more emphasis on the latter). The lists are incomplete but the aim is simply to get the articles ranked correctly. Please can you take a look at these data and leave comments? Thanks a lot!

Hi, JoeSmack I need your help. I am working on a research project at Boston College, studying creation of medical information on Wikipedia. You are being contacted because you have been identified as an important contributor to one or more articles.
Would you will be willing to answer a few questions about your experience? We've done considerable background research, but we would also like to gather the insight of the actual editors. Details about the project can be found at the user page of the project leader, geraldckane. Survey questions can be found at geraldckane/medsurvey. Your privacy and confidentiality will be strictly protected!
The questions should only take a few minutes. I hope you will be willing to complete the survey, as we do value your insight. Please do not hesitate to contact me or Professor Kane if you have any questions. Thank You, BCproject ( talk) 17:34, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
Hey JoeSmack, I've updated my Main Page Redesign proposal substantially, and you had some really great points last time you commented - hopefully you'll see the effects of your suggestions.

Hi - just a little feedback - the operation to install a cochlear implant doesn't always destroy all residual hearing these days (certainly it used to). Depending on the person, some can sometimes be preserved (in the lower frequency region of the basilar membrane, where the electrodes don't go). That doesn't happen in the majority though, as far as I know. It's not a major point, I just saw your edit comment, thought you might be interested.

Please comment there to help the article maintain its GA status. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. --Happy editing!

I just changed Rouge test to "C-class", as I noted that it was unassessed; it almost certainly meets the B-class requirements, I simply didn't have time to run through all the checks for that at this time.
I suggest, perhaps after DYK, that you get a peer review, and look at heading towards good article status.
I just poked a DYK person, so that side of things should progress soon. Good luck with it, nice work. Chzz ► 07:01, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your welcome and introduction Joe. However, not every one on wikipedia is as welcoming. I got half way through writing my first entry on Astronomical Society of New South Wales, got called away so saved it noting in the comments that I was in the process of fleshing it out, and returned a few hours later to find it's been marked for deletion! Before I'd even finished writing it! So I've heard stories that wikipedia is a "closed shop" and "newbies" are jumped upon, and discouraged by some of the "old boys club". I was sceptical, but find on my first foray in wikipedia that they seem to be true. So thanks for your welcome, but the teeth-marks of your fellow-wikipedians tell me that newbies are not actually very welcome here. StarryMan ( talk) 11:24, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

Please help me understand why did you delete all my inputs? I worked so hard and I didn't even back it up somewhere, so now it's gone. I tried to include references for everything I say. I see there is quotes on here where people say for example that it is a misunderstanding that Swedenborgianism is occult. They don't include references, its just somebody's opinion, and you allow it. When I however say why it is occult, with references, it just gets rejected. It sounds rather "one sided" if you know what I mean?

Do you have my page as "watch"? In any case, I'm going to try to get some editing into it by modeling pages that are similar in content and approach.

Thanks for the welcome to Wikipedia. I've actually been lurking here for around four years now, spending alot of time reading and copyediting as necessary - I'm a proud grammar Nazi! I'll need to finally start learning how to use Wikipedia so I can do more than copyediting and small contributions, but I'm using the beta, so my experience will likely be more streamlined. Are you using the beta as well? If so, what have you to say about it? BTW, I noticed you have a psychology degree. I'm currently taking psychology in my senior year of high school, and it's quite intriguing. The reading I've done on Wikipedia over the years has given me an excellent background for the class, and consequently, I frequently surprise my teacher and classmates with my knowledge. I also am considering minoring in psychology. Spectralancer ( talk) 06:57, 4 November 2009 (UTC)Spectralancer
