* April 2006 : Jed Rothwell after the reality of cold fusion, despite to calm him down. | |||
* April - Dec 2006 : a lot of discussions: what did the DOE really say ? Should we quote the main conclusion only, or also the conclusion of the Charge Elements ? do the conclusions of Charge Element 1 and 2 seem so different ? Can we quote their evaluation of the evidence of excess heat ? | |||

==How to defend a fringe science on wikipedia== | |||
Here are some recommendations based on my experience with ]. | |||
:* first check ]. | |||
:* seek to demonstrate that the science is fringe , but not pseudoscience, and then use what the about significant alternative to scientific orthodoxies : "Misplaced Pages:Neutral point of view, a fundamental policy, requires fair representation of significant alternatives to scientific orthodoxy. Significant alternatives, in this case, refers to legitimate scientific disagreement, as opposed to pseudoscience." | |||
:* to demonstrate that, seek reliable scientific sources that are independent from the researcher in the field. Skeptics are often the best source to establish that. | |||
:* if someone still pretends that it is pseudoscience, relentlessly ask him for a source for that view, emphasising that wikipedia is based on reliable, written sources. He will keep saying "everybody knows that it is pseudoscience": repeat that this does not meet wikipedia standards. They will come with statements from editorials saying that "most scientists rejects it as pathological science"; respond by saying that "most scientists" does not constitute a verifiable source, because they don't write on the subject in scientific peer-reviewed journal. | |||
:* make sure that you prepend each favorable sentence by "proponents say that..." for proper attribution. | |||
:* write also ]. | |||
:* stick to journal papers, avoid self-published sources. | |||
:* be perseverent ! | |||
Good luck ! | |||
