NPOV was challenged in the following article here where it appears an attempt is being made to suppress information.

On Prince Mikhail Cantacuzene! —Preceding unsigned comment added by ProperlyRaised ( talk • contribs) 03:40, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for your comments, but I wanted to clarify something. The "bit about chemistry coming from Alchemy" is not due to me, it was the original wording on the page when I arrived. It's also a well known historical event, but one which I don't know much about. I wanted to preserve the original from the pruning down that went on after I added a whole bunch of topics to the list.
The argument on that page is not so much about the topics, it is mostly about personality and, at least for me, the philosophy of "precisionism". The precisionist editors (Hrafn and Kenosis) are under the impression that they should delete something whenever it doesn't match a source nearly verbatim, even if common sense and accuracy suggests that it should stay. I think this type of philosophy is counterproductive, dangerous, and not in line with the common sense ethos of Wikipedia. I don't know where you stand on this issue, but this is the subtext for me.

In a few days perhaps, I will put a list on Dignity's talkpage of the changes that I think the article should have. Perhaps the list will interest other editors.

I noticed that you commented at the AfD for this article, and did not like the name -- and you seemed to think the piece was only about serial killers, which it is not. The subject is literally internet-facilitated homicide, of which serial killings form only a small part. As such, it is a parallel article to the entire crime-by-contact-venue series of articles, such as Internet suicide, Internet crime, Internet terrorism, Cyber crime, Lonely hearts killer, Vehicular homicide, and Online predator.
Perhaps, to be consistent with the above list, Lonely hearts killer should be renamed Lonely hearts homicide -- but that term, like Serial killer and Spree killer, is a one of long standing in the media.

Let me know if you really do want to start that wikiproject, I would join in a heartbeat. I think it would really help alot of editors if they had a place to go and say "this is what I believe, and I think its commonsense, how does everyone else think?". That way others can say yes or no and give suggestions on how that editor can convince others on a discussion page that may not believe in commonsense. I know I've been in discussions where I just wish I could stand up and say "Ok, you may not believe that this is commonsense, but here's 15 other editors who do! Argue with them!".

Thank you for taking notice.
I usually enjoy the oppurtunity to work with my fellow wikipedia editors, and I hope my experience with you may be similar.
My main objection to splitting the article(which would effectively delete it) is that this a topic on its own(as several papers were published about it). In addition, it survived an earlier AFD, so deleting it(and dispersing its information elsewhere) might seem contary to the decision of the ocmmunity.
I haven't worked on the article in a while as I am currently engaged in some dispute resolution and working on the gigantic Economic history of China revamp in my userpage.

" Internet homicide" has commenced at Talk:Internet_homicide#Name. ↜Just me, here, now … 20:25, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi, first I responded to your proposal at Internet homicide. Second, who is the Timothy Leary you are talking about, is he listed at another article? The reason I ask is I did a search of Timothy Leary and came up with someone that had a lot of controversaries, which I am assuming is not who you are talking about. I'd be interested in reading more about this if there is some place he is talked about. By the way, some good posting going on with you. I'm impressed, not that my opinions means anything but I thought I would tell you since a lot of negatives are usually the norm so I think saying something good about someone is a good thing to do. Thanks in advance, I'll be online either later or tomorrow morning. Having some RL problems so I'm off to lay down. Thanks again, -- CrohnieGal Talk 14:43, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi Ludwig, i noticed your name in the Help Template talkpage and was wondering if you could help me with my new template: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:History_of_Somalia as you can see when i used on the following article: Ajuuraan State, this weird [noinclude] code showed up at the start of article [2] but even when i deleted that code from the template it did not disappear so i'm lost and i hope you can help me with this problem, thanks! -- Scoobycentric ( talk) 14:29, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi Ludwigs2, I notice you have deleted the link I posted to a new translation of the Tao Te Ching with the comment "this seems to be a personal, web-based interpretation (unlike the others (all, I believe standard published texts). self-published sources aren't generally allowed". I don't agree with the removal. I believe that this interpretation (like all the others are interpretations as well) shows the actual context of the Tao Te Ching when living like the one who wrote it. I think this really has an educational value, because it makes understandable what is talked about in the Tao Te Ching, and how it relates to present-day life. I hope you will reconcider putting back the URL, Regards -- Controle2 ( talk) 17:51, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Would you be interested in joining this project? We need more editors who share a burden for rescuing promising editors who have gotten into serious trouble because of behavioral issues. IF (a fundamental condition!) they are interested in reforming and adapting to our standards of conduct, and are also willing to abide by our policies and guidelines, rather than constantly subverting them, we can offer to help them return to Wikipedia as constructive editors. Right now many if not most users who have been banned are still active here, but they are here as socks or anonymous IPs who may or may not be constructive. We should offer them a proper way to return. If you think this is a good idea, please join us. -- CrohnieGal Talk 11:13, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Actually, my work on this article I believe will be largely limited today because I am working on another article which is more important. Nonetheless I do believe that it is an error to delete this article. I'll try to maintain the discussion structure as best as I can. Teeninvestor ( talk) 22:13, 17 December 2009 (UTC)
After looking at the template, I think it should be position1, position2, position3 etc. (or a similar name) instead of persons. That way many users with the same position can edit the same column. What do you think? Sole Soul ( talk) 22:15, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
Should we make the endorsements without the time stamp for 2 reasons: 1)The positions are continually updated. 2)It take space. Or may be get rid of the endorsements altogether because one user could summarize (or agree with parts of) both positions. Sole Soul ( talk) 01:17, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
I see two issues with the template here User:Sole_Soul/test: 1)The width of the two columns are not equal 2)There is an empty space at the top of the right column. Sole Soul ( talk) 15:32, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

You make a very good comment there, thank you. The current primary editors in that topic area have been occasionally amicably debating similar issues concerning the best way to divvy up the general area into articles. I have tried encouraging them to raise the issue at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Environment or some similar centralized location, but so far without success. If you would be interested in starting such a debate (and be warned that it would at the very least be long), I think that it could help calm some of the editing excesses people have been committing no matter what the ultimate outcome.

I welcome you to take a look over this article and helping to improve it in any way. Teeninvestor ( talk) 02:15, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
" Internet homicide" has commenced at Talk:Internet_homicide#Name. ↜Just me, here, now … 20:25, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi, first I responded to your proposal at Internet homicide. Second, who is the Timothy Leary you are talking about, is he listed at another article? The reason I ask is I did a search of Timothy Leary and came up with someone that had a lot of controversaries, which I am assuming is not who you are talking about. I'd be interested in reading more about this if there is some place he is talked about. By the way, some good posting going on with you. I'm impressed, not that my opinions means anything but I thought I would tell you since a lot of negatives are usually the norm so I think saying something good about someone is a good thing to do. Thanks in advance, I'll be online either later or tomorrow morning. Having some RL problems so I'm off to lay down. Thanks again, -- CrohnieGal Talk 14:43, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi Ludwig, i noticed your name in the Help Template talkpage and was wondering if you could help me with my new template: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:History_of_Somalia as you can see when i used on the following article: Ajuuraan State, this weird [noinclude] code showed up at the start of article [2] but even when i deleted that code from the template it did not disappear so i'm lost and i hope you can help me with this problem, thanks! -- Scoobycentric ( talk) 14:29, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Thanks Ludwig, i seem to have another case of the [noinclude] code showing in one of my Templates. [3] I mimicked you and closed the template but it still shows [4] any assistance would be greatly appreciated! -- Scoobycentric ( talk) 17:18, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
Thanks again! -- Scoobycentric ( talk) 14:44, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi Ludwigs2, I notice you have deleted the link I posted to a new translation of the Tao Te Ching with the comment "this seems to be a personal, web-based interpretation (unlike the others (all, I believe standard published texts). self-published sources aren't generally allowed". I don't agree with the removal. I believe that this interpretation (like all the others are interpretations as well) shows the actual context of the Tao Te Ching when living like the one who wrote it. I think this really has an educational value, because it makes understandable what is talked about in the Tao Te Ching, and how it relates to present-day life. I hope you will reconcider putting back the URL, Regards -- Controle2 ( talk) 17:51, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Greetings Ludwigs2. Have any thoughts on this? You are very active on this page! -- Nvineeth ( talk) 16:11, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
Would you be interested in joining this project? We need more editors who share a burden for rescuing promising editors who have gotten into serious trouble because of behavioral issues. IF (a fundamental condition!) they are interested in reforming and adapting to our standards of conduct, and are also willing to abide by our policies and guidelines, rather than constantly subverting them, we can offer to help them return to Wikipedia as constructive editors. Right now many if not most users who have been banned are still active here, but they are here as socks or anonymous IPs who may or may not be constructive. We should offer them a proper way to return. If you think this is a good idea, please join us. -- CrohnieGal Talk 11:13, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Actually, my work on this article I believe will be largely limited today because I am working on another article which is more important. Nonetheless I do believe that it is an error to delete this article. I'll try to maintain the discussion structure as best as I can. Teeninvestor ( talk) 22:13, 17 December 2009 (UTC)
After looking at the template, I think it should be position1, position2, position3 etc. (or a similar name) instead of persons. That way many users with the same position can edit the same column. What do you think? Sole Soul ( talk) 22:15, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
Should we make the endorsements without the time stamp for 2 reasons: 1)The positions are continually updated. 2)It take space. Or may be get rid of the endorsements altogether because one user could summarize (or agree with parts of) both positions. Sole Soul ( talk) 01:17, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
I see two issues with the template here User:Sole_Soul/test: 1)The width of the two columns are not equal 2)There is an empty space at the top of the right column. Sole Soul ( talk) 15:32, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
The second AFD of Comparison between Roman and Han Empires, resulted in the article being stubbified and the contents moved to Wikipedia:Article Incubator:Comparison between Roman and Han Empires. You are welcome to make suggestions at the article in the incubator. If your concerns are meet, and you believe the article is ready for mainspace, please sign here [5], or contact User:Spartaz, the closing admin. Thank you.

You make a very good comment there, thank you. The current primary editors in that topic area have been occasionally amicably debating similar issues concerning the best way to divvy up the general area into articles. I have tried encouraging them to raise the issue at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Environment or some similar centralized location, but so far without success. If you would be interested in starting such a debate (and be warned that it would at the very least be long), I think that it could help calm some of the editing excesses people have been committing no matter what the ultimate outcome.
