Hello! Yes, about Scientology; i'm not in any way trying to go against the people who believe what it says; of course not, everybody is free to believe in what they wish to believe in; but that should not come at a price. The fact that to become a member you have to pay is the fact which makes me vehemently against it; it is a business under the guise of a religion. Surely, if you were to take a look at the way in which any religion has passages or information about what is supposed to happen to those who aren't true believers; so in such a case, those who would have different religious userboxes on their page could argue the night away as to why the other is going to be punished.

Hi! Could we discuss my "changed position on civility" a little?

Hello. You are receiving this message because of a [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Administrators&oldid=526254016#Restoration_of_the_tools_.28proposal.29 recent change] to the [[WP:ADMIN|administrator policy]] that alters what you were told at the time of your desysopping. The effect of the change is that if you are inactive for a continuous three year period, you will be unable to request return of the administrative user right. This includes inactive time prior to your desysopping if you were desysopped for inactivity and inactive time prior to the change in policy. Inactivity is defined as the absence of edits or logged actions. Until such time as you have been inactive for three years, you may request return of the tools at the [[WP:BN|bureaucrats' noticeboard]]. After you have been inactive for three years, you may seek return of the tools only through [[WP:RFA]]. Thank you.

== The Wikipedia Library now offering accounts from Cochrane Collaboration (sign up!) ==

::I just nominated it for a "Category for Deletion." -[[User:Harvestdancer|Harvestdancer]] 21:15, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

{{WP:TWL/Header}}

=== re: Senior Editor ===

The Wikipedia Library gets Wikipedia editors free access to reliable sources that are behind paywalls. Because you are signed on as a medical editor, I thought you'd want to know about our most recent donation from Cochrane Collaboration.

Yes, what you say makes a lot of sense. Yes, source-citing is often honored in the breach -- probably because the editor doesn't ''have'' a source.

*'''[[Cochrane Collaboration]]''' is an independent medical nonprofit organization that conducts systematic reviews of randomized controlled trials of health-care interventions, which it then publishes in the Cochrane Library.

*Cochrane has generously agreed to give ''free, full-access accounts to 100 medical editors''. Individual access would otherwise cost between $300 and $800 per account.

One of the glories of the old Britannica, I recall reading, was the signed articles by luminaries -- Trotsky on Socialism, H.G. Wells on Science Fiction, that sort of thing. If -- and only if -- it was allowed to protect articles in some cases, Wikipedia with its newfound popularity ought to be able to attract notable experts to write ''signed'' articles. What a boost THAT would be!

*'''If you are still active as a medical editor, come and [[WP:COCHRANE|sign up :)]]'''

Cheers, [[User:Ocaasi|Ocaasi]]^{[[User talk:Ocaasi|t ]]&#124;[[Special:Contributions/Ocaasi| c]]} 20:11, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

That would go against the Wiki structure, but if the ultimate goal is the best encyclopedia, the structure can evolve. There could and should still be Wiki on most of the articles.

Anyway, that doesn't address what you were saying. To return to that: now... suppose instead of all articles, the source-citing requirement you suggest be only applied to a small percentage of articles labled (say) "of academic importance" or whatever. Coverage of important scientific concepts, major historical articles, important biographies, that sort of thing. (Of course, deciding which articles are appropriate for the designation would be source of much debate, but that's OK).

Making it apply only to a subset of articles would make it much easier for the community "swallow". And really, I don't care ''that'' much if an article on The Simpsons or whatever doesn't cite sources.

Or... suppose there was a coveted category of "Senior Editor"... not that I'm tied to that idea, but suppose... perhaps these designated "important" articles would be locked to all except "Senior Editors" (who would have already demonstrated ability and willingness to cite sources).

Just a thought.

I'm not an acadamecian or much of an expert on this, but I am interested in the process (and improving it); if you want to try to get this something out on this on a broader scale I will help if I can. [[User:Herostratus|Herostratus]] 00:50, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

=== On Inclusive Democracy===

We read on Woohookitty’s talk page the serious problem/question you raised with respect to the Inclusive Democracy pages in Wikipedia and we would like first to congratulate you for your effort to discover the truth concerning the abuses of manipulation and unquestioned following by certain administrators who, as you rightly pointed out, did not seem to pay proper attention to our allegations about the role of [[User:DisposableAccount]] and [[PaulCardan]] --and more recently [[Llbb]] who was denounced as a sockpuppet by FreakOfNurture-- and went along with the deletion requests by one and the same person with the sole aim to delete all references to Inclusive Democracy from Wikipedia. We the members of the EB would appreciate if you could:

a) investigate and trace the IP of the above users for any similarities in the addresses they use

b) investigate and trace the IP of the person who vandalized the alleged copyright violation page of ID with pornography which went unheeded by the administrators and

c) take action for all Inclusive Democracy pages not only be restored, but also protected from vandalism. Please note that we possess evidence that Paul Cardin is the pseudonym used by a disgruntled ex member of Democracy & Nature and the Inclusive Democracy group who, once he left the journal and was condemned by every other member of our organization, he used any means available to him in order to defame Inclusive Democracy. We have therefore every reason to believe that it is the same person who has exploited his knowledge of Wikipedia regulations to delete any trace of Inclusive Democracy from Wikipedia, despite the fact that this conception, as well as its founder, have separate long entries in other Encyclopedias (e.g. the Routledge Encyclopedia of International Political Economy) and biographical dictionaries (International Authors and Writers Who’s who, Dictionary of International Bibliography, The Cambridge Blue Book) etc. Thanking you in advance.

=== Sockpuppeting - DisposableAccount , Paulcardan, Llbb, Bbll ===

The technical evidence indicates that [[User:DisposableAccount]], [[User:Paulcardan]], [[User:Llbb]], and [[User:Bbll]] are all the same editor. I've blocked Llbb and Bbll, but I wasn't sure which of the other two to block, since DisposableAccount is the older one, but Paulcardan appears to be the real one. They should both be blocked, one permanently, and one temporarily to discourage sockpuppeting; I leave it to other admins as to which. Also, I've permanently blocked [[User:Marx marvelous]]; though the technical evidence tying it to the others isn't strong, it's still obviously a sockpuppet created for the purpose of policy violation.

=== Response to [[User:JWSchmidt]] by [[User:Paulcardan]] ===

Thanks for leaving a comment on my userpage. However, as I just pointed out on [[User_talk:Jayjg]] your statement "creating multiple Wikipedia user accounts in an attempt to influence voting for page deletions" is misguided, to say the least, and A LIE, to be totally honest.

In the sense that you are using "sockpuppetry", then even you are a sockpuppet kind Mr. [[User:Memenen]]...

Congratulations for showing me that the few good people that I've met on Wikipedia who seemed to be interested in enhancing its content and not on personal attacks ARE THE EXCEPTION and not the rule (if I can judge by how both you and [[User:Jayjg]] simply arrived at these conclusions without taking the time to find out what the hell is going on).

[[User:Paulcardan|Paulcardan]] 05:36, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

=== Request concerning Inclusive Democracy ===

Congratulations for your excellent research on the matter. Concerning Inclusive Democracy,

after the latest developments, is it possible to help restore our page on Inclusive Democracy (instead of the stub) on the grounds that after the latest explanations by our webmaster there is no copyvio? I want also to ask whether it is possible for you to help restore the other pages (IJID and Network) and of course keep the pages on D&N and Takis Fotopoulos and secure the permanent banning of Paulcardan. We will be then willing to reconsider our decision to withdraw from Wikipedia. --TheVel 11:47, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

==== Response to PaulCardan ====

PaulCardan attacks Schmidt for using a sockpuppet but he forgets to mention that, unlike him, Schmidt DECLARED IT HIMSELF AND NEVER USED IT TO DELETE A PAGE. Furthermore, he has the nerve to accuse us of personal attacks when for months he was attacking Inclusive Democracy or Takis Fotopoulos in every possible way!

Also, I cannot undertstand why you have just banned DisposableAccount and not also PaulCardan despite the fact that it is now clear that HE initiated everything and created all other accounts and now even accuses Schmidt as sockpuppet!

--[[User:TheVel|TheVel]] 15:22, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

=== The truth about PaulCardan ===

Thank you for answering to my requests. I want to add this: blocking the User:Paulcardan account from editing would serve the very useful purpose of preventing him from starting again similar campaigns against the Inclusive Democracy entries. It was shown without any doubt that the sole purpose of this guy in opening the Paul Cardan account (and subsequently the sockpuppets accounts) was exactly to carry on his vendetta against Inclusive Democracy. Check the history of the ‘articles he has worked on’: ALL OF THEM (apart from a minor edit on Castoriadis) were published AFTER he was denounced as using sockpuppets to delete our entries, i.e. after Dec. 26 —although his PaulCardan account was created at the end of October! It is obvious that his edits are also a cheap cover for his real aim in creating the PaulCardan account-- to use it for attacking Inclusive Democracy-- and this is why this accout has to be banned permanently.

--[[User:TheVel|TheVel]] 17:58, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

=== Go To Discussion Pages of D&N ===

Schmidt to go to the discussion pages of D&N to find our ‘what is going on’ and not seeking the truth from P.C.’s own lies, which were replied there one by one by members of the ENTIRE Editorial Board which condemned him. Clearly, there is no point in attempting to “fixing the dispute” through any sort of discussions with him and we do not have any intention to spare more of our scarce time on this guy who proved all this time that his sole activity is to plot against all our WP entries . We wonder whether History on the Inclusive Democracy project according to WP is determined on the basis of the views of a single biased user in his twenties (who carries out a personal vendetta against Takis Fotopoulos and the Inclusive Democracy project in general long ago before the WP entries were created) and not on the basis of the views of the entire Editorial Board, as well as of the founder of the ID project--in fact immediately after he left the D&N journal, when he began a clearly opportunistic campaign against us, despite the fact that all his articles in D&N were a celebration of the Inclusive Democracy project which he now classifies as a confused byproduct of Castoriadis and Bookchin’s thought. We understand that he may start a new account and begin again his campaign but at least his banning would have given a moral lesson against the sort of methods he uses to pass his point, exploiting the WP regulations (one wonders why he does not dare to support his views in any printed medium but he prefers the anonymity of WP in order to defame the ID entry!).

=== pornographic perpetrator ===

Because I think that what happened for that hour in Inclusive Democracy' page was horrible, and I don't want for it to simply pass by, I did some research and I found the exact photo that was placed in ID's page that day: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Circpn_reduced.jpg.

Is it possible for you to find who used this photo that day and put it in Inclusive Democracy's entry for an hour?--[[User:TheVel|TheVel]] 22:15, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

=== Removal of User:Paulcardan ===

Dear [[User:JWSchmidt]],

I already made all the points I needed to make but you refused to pay attention to them.

If I was a sockpuppet then you were also one; you say "There are rules against using multiple accounts in an effort to influence community decisions and creating accounts with names that might disrupt the function of Wikipedia." Well, that is my point precisely: I did not try to influence community decisions by using multiple accounts. Had you actually taken the time to read the relevant dialogues you would have seen that.

I am sure that these people ([[User:TheVel]], [[User:Narap43]], [[User:john sargis]]) will come back with their personal attacks now that they know I will not respond.

You say: "I think it would be best for everyone who has a personal interest in Democracy & Nature and related articles to stop editing them." I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU. I will thus hold you to your word and expect you to make sure that these people will not DOMINATE the articles that refer to themselves. I myself am leaving now, and if I tried to return with an ad hoc username it would be really easy for anyone to spot me. Therefore, I expect you (if you have a conscience and feel any guilt) to:

a) Find out the IP of [[User:Marx marvelous]] and see if there is a connection with any of the above usernames ([[User:TheVel]], [[User:Narap43]], [[User:john sargis]]), or the IP's 212.205.107.171, 147.102.34.72, 212.205.107.171, 84.68.175.34, 84.65.127.105, 217.251.167.153, 217.251.159.64, 217.251.154.17, 217.251.152.70, 212.205.76.134, 84.68.155.188, 195.179.14.235 that belong (or belonged) to them. I wouldn't be surprised if some of them turn out to be in the UK, where [[Takis Fotopoulos]], who supposedly is not participating in these exchanges, resides.

b) Delete my [[User_talk:Paulcardan]] page. You know that there isn't anything substantial there and that all the dialogues took place on talk pages of the relevant entries, AfD pages or deletion reviews etc. I have asked [[User:FreplySpang]] to do this but she raised some disagreements given that she did not participate in the relevant exchanges and thinks that there may be something relevant to an edit dispute on my talk page. If it has not been deleted by the time you go there I would appreciate it if you would delete it.

c) I would also like you to bar me (i.e. [[User:Paulcardan|Paulcardan]]) from logging on to Wikipedia.

I am leaving Wikipedia (thanks in great part to your behavior) but please pay attention: I was 'till now editing many articles, SOME of which were related to Democracy & Nature. The users I mentioned above have not contributed ANYTHING outside their political propaganda.

Best,

[[User:Paulcardan|Paulcardan]] 03:49, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

PS: If you want to reply to me, please do it on your own talk page, since I am planning to delete my user talk page as described above.

:"I will thus hold you to your word and expect you to make sure that these people will not DOMINATE the articles that refer to themselves." <-- I am willing to do what I can, but that is not much. I have little knowledge of the topics that are of interest to the people who created the [[Democracy & Nature]] article.

:a) Personally, I would like to know the identity of [[User:Marx marvelous]], but I doubt if someone would do what "Marx marvelous" did and use the same static IP for another Wikipedia account. In general, the IP address of user accounts is not checked "just" for an isolated case of vandalism. Only a very few Wikipedians are trusted with access to the database containing user account information, and it would simply not be possible to check that data base for each act of vandalism.

:b) I think [[User:FreplySpang]] was correct not to delete [[User_talk:Paulcardan]].

:c) I would prefer that you continue to use the Paulcardan account to make comments on the discussion/talk pages for any Wikipedia articles related to [[Democracy & Nature]] that survive the deletion process. Your personal knowledge about these topics is of value to Wikipedia. If there is factually incorrect or biased information in an article, it is up to you to document the problems on the talk page(s). If discussion on a talk page does not solve the problem, you can submit a [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment|request for comment]] and/or go directly to [[Wikipedia:List of administrators|administrators]] for help. If that fails, you can request [[Wikipedia:Mediation|mediation]] or [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee|arbitration]]. --[[User:JWSchmidt|JWSchmidt]] 04:33, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

===A Final Reply To Lies an Distortions ===

[[user: Paulcardan]] continues to smear even here the entire Editorial Board, and personally the founder of Inclusive Democracy, and then he ‘predicts’ that we will continue with “personal attacks against him”, when, even a superficial reading of the related dialogues in Wikipedia, unambiguously shows who began using this method of defaming his opponents . Briefly, our decision to withdraw from Wikipedia has become irrevocable (see Announcement of the Editorial Board of D&N and IJID) since after it became clear that the administrators are not prepared to reconsider their decisions even on AfDs created by a proven sockpuppet of [[user:Paulcardan]].

So, [[user:Paulcardan]] “did not try to influence community decisions by using multiple accounts”. The fact therefore that he was caught using [[DisposableAccount]] (a banned account, since, as it was shown by the WP inquiry, it was a sockpuppet of him) which led to the deletion of the International Journal of Inclusive Democracy, is not exactly this!!!

And [[user:Paulcardan]] does attempt even here to smear the founder of the Inclusive Democracy project , when he insinuates that a scatological comment against the administrators by [[User:Marx marvelous]] might have been created by [[Takis Fotopoulos]] himself. This, despite the fact that Wiki’s technical inquiry concluded that [[User:Marx marvelous]] could be another sockpuppet of [[user:Paulcardan]], although they did not manage to find strong evidence for it.

And he has served in D&N as an assistant editor for only a couple of years out of its over 11 years history, celebrating all this time the Inclusive Democracy project and starting opportunistically vitriolic (always anonymous!) attacks in Wikipedia against us, TOTALLY AGREES with the administrators that “everyone who has a personal interest in Democracy & Nature and related articles to stop editing them”!

This, because, supposedly, it was us, the Editorial Board of D&N/IJID, who wished to DOMINATE the editing and not HE, alone from all Wikipedia users, who kept vandalizing our entries with false and distorted events about OUR OWN HISTORY! And [[User:JWSchmidt]] replies to this that he is willing to do what he can so that we do not “dominate” the edits on Inclusive Democracy. Does this mean that the main, if not exclusive, criterion of editing in Wikipedia is that somebody ‘does not dominate’ an entry, even if this is clearly at the expense of reliability of the information provided? Can anybody imagine any authoritative encyclopedia changing its entries according to the comments of an anonymous user who does not dare to publish in print his distortions of historical facts -- even against the expressed opposite opinion of the people who created these facts (as in this case the project of Inclusive Democracy and the related journals? I am sorry, but if you call this an encyclopedia providing reliable information, everybody else in the world calls it something else and this is why Wikipedia is increasingly recognized by the world media as a source of unreliable information!

And finally [[user: Paulcardan]] ‘threatens’ Wikipedia with his departure and he bravely (!) demands the deletion of his user account when he knows that the username [[Paulcardan]] has now been completely discredited and the only way to continue his dirty attacks against Inclusive Democracy is by creating yet another account --this time better covering his traces from future WP technical investigations. Still, the Wikipedia administrators agree that even [[User_talk:Paulcardan]] should not have been deleted!

Congratulations! You proved all our points about how Wikipedia works and the sort of information it provides. [[User:john sargis|john sargis]] 8:40, 3 January 2006 (UTC)—Member of the Editorial Board of the International Journal of Inclusive Democracy

=== The note of protest against your removal of Quantum Pharmaceuticals article from the list of Russian Companies ===

Dear Sir or Madam, let me disagree with your removal of "Quantum Pharmaceuticals" article from the list of Russian Companies.

Please inform the community about your arguments why are you thinking that this article is "non-notable article". If you have read the information about the Quantum technology and know something in this sphere you could not consider this information as non-notable and non-important. The sooner the whole mankind will take advantage of Quantum technology the more effective and fast the drug discovery will be. Quantum made a revolution in the technology, the Wikipedia as a democratic enviroment and source of getting the newest information about the development of human knowledge is helping people to learn about breakthroughs and to use the knowledge about it immediatly. By deleting this data from Wikipedia you undermines the general purpose of Wikipedia. Quantum Pharmaceuticals article is not a commercial it is a notification for all researchers of the world that the solution for the long standing problem is found and they can use it right now. The contribution Quantum Pharmaceuticals made in mankind development is not insufficient in comparison with other companies listed in the " List of Russian Companies", it is a technological flagship of the world, not even Russia. The achievements made by Quantum consist the new generation approach to the molecular modelling and preserving the outdated information in Wikipedia is not right and not honest. There are no any other exapmles in the world of the

resolution of this problem. The mankind should know about it and move forward with it.

Let me ask you to review your decision.

Best wishes,

Maxim [[User:83.237.50.62]]

:When Wikipedia can independently verify that your company is notable, then it will be welcome in "List of Russian Companies". Please do not add additional claims about your company to [[Talk:Quantum Pharmaceuticals]] unless they are supported by [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verifiable]] [[Wikipedia:Citing sources|sources]]. --[[User:JWSchmidt|JWSchmidt]] 13:53, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Let me note that information about Quantum technology can be verified by everybody by downloading the software from http://q-pharm.com/home/contents/sci_and_tech/proof_of_concept, calculating and comparing it with the known data. Let's be careful and honest. If somebody thinks that guys are making ads lets change it but do not delete the whole article. [[User:83.237.241.52]]

=== On the Chimp genome question ===

I was just wondering, in the picture you made of the human/chimpanzee genomes ([[:Image:Humanchimpchromosomes.png]]), what is the 'M' chromosome over there on the far right? I'm guessing mitochondrial DNA? I don't see any reference to it in the article ([[Chimpanzee Genome Project]]) after a quick scan, though I could have missed something. It might be worth a brief mention on the image page, I'd think. But I'm mostly just curious about that. -- [[User:JohnOwens|John Owens]] | [[User talk:JohnOwens|(talk)]] 23:33, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

:I added the following to the image's page:<BR>

This image was made starting with diagrams available at United States government genome webpages. "M" = [[mitochondria]]l, for example [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/mapview/map_search.cgi?taxid=9606 see this] and [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/mapview/map_search.cgi?taxid=9598 this].

:The main reason I added that particular image to the [[Chimpanzee Genome Project]] is because it provides a visual depiction of how similar the human and chimp chromosomes are and it shows the difference in chromosome 2. Determination of gene changes related to the chromosomal differences between humans and chimps has been facilitated by the genome projects. --[[User:JWSchmidt|JWSchmidt]] 23:57, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

=== Introducing myself ===

Dear Drs. Schmidt and RobinH (I add Dr. RobinH here as I was unable to locate his UserTalk), I collaborated some time with Prof. Szirk in Buenos Aires. Having found the "Consciousness studies" Wikibook, I think I'd gladly contribute to several sectors and, as a first step, wish to introduce myself. I may contribute info about the neurobiological tradition in which I was working, whose views and results have only recentrly been rendered in English, and try to present them even more clearly. To start with, I'd like to ask you for visiting a website of the mentioned academic tradition and suggesting me guidelines. You may find it in [http://electroneubio.secyt.gov.ar/index2.htm] Best, David Neil Reardon e-mail: my family name at operamail.com (200.42.95.189)

:Hi David. I was surprised that you found me, then I noticed that someone listed me as a contributor to the "Consciousness studies" wikibook (see [[b:Consciousness_studies#Contributors]]); I assume that is why you went looking for me. My contributions to the "Consciousness studies" wikibook have been very minor! I am much more interested in '''memory''' than '''consciousness'''. In my view, once we understand the mechanisms of memory then we might be able to make sense of consciousness. You should be able to contact [[b:User:RobinH|RobinH]] via the Wikibooks [[b:User:RobinH|user page]] (the [[b:User talk:RobinH|user talk page]] seems to have a defect; it shows the main page for Wikibooks!?). You can also introduce your ideas on the talk pages at the "Consciousness studies" wikibook. --[[User:JWSchmidt|JWSchmidt]] 23:21, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

::Hi JW; glad to "see" you. My aim is now double. As regards '''memory''' and '''consciousness''', things are moving fast as, with Internet expansion, whole contributions from abroad are finally being translated into English -- whence I'd like both to contribute to the cons-WKbook as well as suggesting you to reconsider the neurobiology project. It seems me that no longer any one of these two WKbooks might stand alone. Exploring the current conceptual situation would require non-negligeable effort & time, initially making a critical reading of the Internet-available docs. To start with, you may cast a glance on [http://electroneubio.secyt.gov.ar/] To sum all this up, many '''consciousness''' avenues now seem useless or appear under fairly different light, as memory surfaces as a basic feature of mind. (I use '''mind''' in lieu of '''consciousness''', reserving the latter for a certain state of mind).

Thank you very much for your help; we'll meet in the discussion page. Best, Dave [[User:200.42.95.185|200.42.95.185]] 16:56, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

=== Molecular structure of Nucleic Acids ===

Would you please review your 15:05, 1 December 2005 edit of [[Molecular structure of Nucleic Acids]], "data were, remove extra "not" ?

I think in doing this you reversed the meaning completely, from:

:Had Crick's boss, [[Max Perutz]] acted unethically by allowing Crick access to the MRC report? He felt he had not because the report was not confidential and had been designed as part of an effort to promote contact between different MRC research groups.

to

:Had Crick's boss, [[Max Perutz]] acted unethically by allowing Crick access to the MRC report? He felt he had because the report was not confidential and had been designed as part of an effort to promote contact between different MRC research groups.

That is, the sentence went from saying "not acted unethically" to "yes, acted unethically". Given the various controversies around crediting Franklin, that wasn't a minor edit. Could you please check that you did what you meant to do?

=== ID FA ===

My take on it is that pro-ID contributors, of which there are a number who have had issues with abiding by NPOV, will always move to scuttle any attempt at making it a FA. This is because the article presents ID in what they consider to be an unfavorable light, i.e.; it presents both sides of the topic.

Reading over the previous objections, most can be categorized as sour grapes. Some are based on an incomplete of flawed understanding of [[WP:NPOV]], and others I recognize as being raised in just plain bad faith to discredit the article from known troublemakers we'd encountered.

Contentious pov-magnets like ID will always attract this sort of behavior, and I have no reason to see why the outcome of any future FA nomination would be any different. The only way to head off these tendentious objections and misuse of the system is for this particular nomination to put some reasonable conditions and qualifications on the tallying of comments that will count toward consensus. There will be strong support for this from the regular contributors to the article. It's justifiable by the senselessness of the past objections at the last FA nom, especially those from anons and clueless newbies that appeared just for that event and scuttled the last effort.

=== You have a real nice User Page ===

Nice, really is. And thank you for your comment on my talk page. If you have any specific question about Scientology, such as "How does the Scientology theory of memory differ from the biological one" and you ask me, I'll give it my best shot. [[User:Terryeo|Terryeo]] 03:48, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

:I wonder if you think [http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/pubs/sfn98/ this webpage by David Touretzky]] provides a fair account of "the Scientology theory of memory"? I find the idea of memory in non-physical form (such as a soul) to be rather hard to imagine. --[[User:JWSchmidt|JWSchmidt]] 04:17, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

I looked through that page. I would say the page presents information that is misleading and presents it in a misleading manner. The author of the page, I suspect, presents the information of it as accurately and precisely as he can, as he understands it. But he doesn't understand it. No matter who presented it, no matter where it was presented, no matter that a poster was made of it and it hangs on office walls everywhere, it is information which is misleading, presented in a misleading manner. The first misleading point occurs in the first sentence. It states, "The Church of Scientology is noteworthy for its ... mechanisms of memory". Scientology does not present a "mechanism of memory" but instead presents a "workable theory of memory". That statement is misleading. Scientology talks about memories as mental image pictures. It does not state that there is no physical action involved with memory. It may well be that neurons fire and pathways form in the brain and nervous system. Scientology does not disagree with that. The "workable theory" is what Scientology was built on and it is a different approach, an approach which uses no physical universe aspect and thus, no physical mechanism. I am trying to say, everything every researcher and doctor knows about memory and the brain and nervous system, all of that may well be valid and true. Scientology does not address that and does not disagree with that and does not attempt to address the physical body. But the abstract (the webpage) implies that Scientology disagrees. "Mechanisms of memory" is simply not an accurate way to say how Dianetics (and the owner of Dianetics, Scientology), how their "workable theory" is different, but does not disagree with medicine's physical findings.

Hubbard defined "engram" at one point in terms of how the common dictionary defines the word. "A physical alteration thought to occur in living neural tissue in response to stimuli"[http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=engram engram] In the Dianetic and Scientology Technical Dictionary, page 141, <blockquote>the word '''engram''' is an old one borrowed from biology. It means simply, "a lasting memory trace on a cell." It maybe be engraved on more than one cell, but up against Dianetics processing, it is not very lasting.</blockquote>

Hubbard's reasoning might have gone something like this. I'll ask a question like, "can you recall a time you ate an apple" and the person recalls and gives details. Then Hubbard would ask, "can you recall an earlier time you ate an apple", again, details. Then, "recall the earliest time you can when you ate an apple" and the person comes back with details. Each recall had some similar perceptions which happened during a past moment. So then, Hubbard made a catalogue of what people remembered they perceived. Taste, color, time of day, position of their body at that past moment and so on, pretty much what you would expect. So the idea of a memory as a "mental image picture" begin to emerge. That is not to say that people carry around such pictures, but this is a "working theory" in the sense that by considering an individual's memory (say John Smith) to be available to John Smith as a series of mental image pictures, then we can talk to John Smith about his memories more effectively. Dianetics does not know exactly how John Smith stores his memories, but Dianetics does know how to talk to John Smith about his memories. A "workable theory of the mind" you see? Workable because John Smith can talk about his memories and Hubbard could ask John Smith about his memories by using Dianetic's workable theory. But not as a mechanism, only as a workable theory. Dianetics does not propose that memories are nothing but "mental image pictures". Instead, Dianetics proposes that by thinking of memories as mental image pictures, we can talk with John Smith about John Smith's memories. By considering John Smith's memories as mental image pictures, we can produce an improvement in John Smith.

== Notification of automated file description generation ==

There is a lot more to the Abstract, to that page but I'll let most of it go for now unless you ask. A person could get a clue about how the Abstract's creator was thinking by looking at the references at the very end of it. The author of the abstract places secondary sources first (Xenu.net, Clambake.org, etc) and places primary sources second (Scientology.org). The author states misleading information in a misleading way. I would guess that he gave it his best shot. [[User:Terryeo|Terryeo]] 12:12, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Dear JW Schmidt,

=== '''Francis Crick''' ===

1. I'm inspired to improve the [[Bioenergetics]] page and pray that I don't offend anyone by replacing their words with mine. Yours was the only name there on the talk page, so I supposed you may have been the original author of the article. I am not a qualified professional or expert so someone like yourself might visit the page (in a few weeks) to mitigate errors.

2. While searching for a way to contact you, experiencing talk pages et cetera for the first time, I learned that you have contributed much time and energy to the Wikipedia project. Thank you!!! But it seems you haven't been active for years. My main interest is cognition at the cellular level, especially microbes, at the molecular level. So of course your effort to develop the Molecular and Cellular Biology Portal was wonderful, and I hope you're able to do more good work.

John,

Sincerely, [[User:Jakelove|Jakelove]] ([[User talk:Jakelove|talk]]) 23:29, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
