Fixing the Science article to reflect all fields using the scientific method, including the social sciences
I saw in the discussion that you intended to get to this. Just wondering if you are expecting to be able to do it, as I don't think I can. Shoreranger ( talk) 17:15, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
I agree with your assessment, although possibly a block is more appropriate than a ban; but Kuru got your message first. -- Anthony Bradbury "talk" 20:33, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
I am planning to build a Wikibook on linear algebra; the work is still in progress, anyone wanting to collaborate is welcome to join. Jorgen W ( talk) 23:43, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

So, I have some very basic questions: why all users and contributors are used to write "per" instead of "for"? The most recurring example: a user explains her/his edit, or posts a comment in a debating discussion and writes per WP:Policy instead of for WP:Policy; also the abuse of words and paraphrases borrowed from Latin or Italian sound unappropriate (for example,the term Consensus used instead of Agreement, the misuse of " de facto" , just to mention one, the list is longer); is it American or some kind of pidgin English?? Or just "nerdie" English? -- Jorgen W ( talk) 20:32, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
- I think, at this point, it's just "Wikipedia [Non-]Standard English". -- I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a {{ Talkback}} message on my talk page. @ 20:33, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
