| This comment is meant to be informal to hopefully correct a concern before we begin. You mentioned that my used sources are spurious. In good faith, I am totally confused by your comment. Do you mean to state that I conterfieted sources? That is a common assumption over the word spurious. I hope you meant to say that the sources are not harmonuous with generally expected x, y, and z methods. If not, I feel like my many-many hours of time taken to track down sources are waisted. | |||

| The general assumption I have on wikipedia is that expertise is welcome, but it doesn't relieve anybody of the need to cite sources. When my expertise is questioned, I have taken the time to find sources if I don't already have them. Sometimes, it seems every bit of added information is questioned and sources are requested. Well, I have gone as far as to only judge if to directly use entire content or not rather than to incorporate expertise or reflect on other content. It appears some people target users as far as a psychopathic style to pressure a point. Misplaced Pages is still globally young, and I predict it will play a major factor in mediation between different cultures. | |||

| From the sockpuppet check done by Kelly Martin ] I think it is now clear that most, if not all, of the sockpuppets/impersonators were actually Retcon.

| I would like to express my appreciation for your fairness and even temper in dealing with POV editors within the ] articles. The antagonizing and instigating that goes on within the discussion pages seriously detracts from the goal of producing an NPOV set of articles, and it is taking editors not affiliated with Jehovah's Witnesses to be able to call them on their manners and unfair editing. Witnesses who tried were repeatedly bombarded with rude, uncivil, insulting and denegrating responses, and any effort to obtain an NPOV edit was shot back with accusations of attempting to decieve (the world, I guess).

| Hello, | |||
| I don't check the bio page of Jim Hightower often, so I didn't realize you had responded regarding Mediation. The person "edit warring" with me keeps putting up factually incorrect information. Looking at Jim's book, that the person keeps citing, there is no mention of Hightower casting his superdelegate vote for Jerry Brown. Hightower has stated to me that he cast his superdelegate vote for Presiden Clinton, because Cinton was the Democratic nominee. I'm happy to discuss this further with user ] or with you. | |||
| <small>posted 16:23, January 4, 2006 by Laura74, please sign your posts. Thanks.</small> | |||
| == Hightower Book == | |||
| I can't give you a scanned picture, because I don't own a scanner, but I can give you the following information. The line is in ''There's Nothing In the Middle of the Road But Yellow Stripes and Dead Armadillos'' by Jim Hightower, ISBN 0-06-092949, chapter 1, subsection "Vernon Jordan's Dream," page 41. The exact quote is, in reference to his activities at the 1992 Democratic National Convention, "I had supported Senator Tom Harkin's failed bid for the nomination, then moved to Jerry Brown when Harkin bailed out." -] 23:16, 4 January 2006 (UTC) | |||
| == Jim Hightower superdelegate vote == | |||
| Thanks for your help. I've gone through the section on the 92 Dem Convention, and nowhere does it say the superdelegate vote was cast for Brown. HIs book doesn't mention who his superdelegate vote was cast for, but Jim says he cast it for Bill Clinton because Clinton was the Dem nominee. I can post the entire text of the section on the 1992 Democratic convention, if you think its necessary. ~Laura74~ | |||

| As you'll see it's similar to Misplaced Pages, but my hope is this will allow baseball fans to do more and different things, like reporting on games, in depth statistics, create mulitple pages for pictures, and whatever else baseball fans care to create. You've done great work on Misplaced Pages and I was hoping you could help get this baseball Wikicity off the ground. Please let me know what you think either at my talk page, or you can email me at terry@wikia.com. Thanks!

| ##There are no "standard old proposed scattering mechanisms". Tired light does not deal with scattering except in some fantasy world of Marmet and others drawing tremendous comparisons from their work to the years between the wars. --] 07:32, 6 January 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ##"ScienceApostel" -- this seems like he isn't exactly "writing for the enemy". I'm not sure what his "negative" comments ammount to. I certainly don't know what is "negative" or what is "positive". But I do know what tired light is. --] 07:32, 6 January 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ##Marmet's proposal is '''absolutely rejected''' by the scientific community. Scattering is not a source for the cosmological redshift. End of story. (Not only that, but Marmet's scattering is '''also not tired light'''.)--] 07:32, 6 January 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ##I don't believev this response at all. If this were the case then he would not base his definition of tired light on the article itself. --] 07:32, 6 January 2006 (UTC) | |||
| Reponse from ] regarding ]'s answer: | |||
| ## I find it very problematic that Ian will list sources he doesn't read. He is very fond of making laudry lists of articles that contain key-words he is interested in writing about. These practices lead me to believe he is not a competent editor in many cases. --] 21:15, 6 January 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ##Ian's claim that lack of scattering implies lack of tired light effects clearly shows he doesn't have familiarity with the material he is trying to write about. He gets very upset when I refer to his lack of expertise, claiming that it represents personal attacks. However, his advocacy often crosses the line between adding information and POV-pushing. --] 21:15, 6 January 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ##Ian's anti-science attitude doesn't make sense when writing articles about scientific subjects. Tired light is a scientific subject, so it makes little sense to give undue weight to those who write incorrect or misleading missives that are unscientific and include the in the scientific article. We can keep the views opposed to science on the pages devoted to explaining such views when they are notable. Ian wants to see them included on other pages too, a clear violation of Misplaced Pages's ] policy. --] 21:15, 6 January 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ##Ian's view of what constitutes a minority view is wrong. Minority views are minority views because they are held by a minority of people who know about the subject. --] 21:15, 6 January 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ##Ned Wright's criticisms are based on peer reviewed work. This is a secondary source, to be sure, but to claim that such is "''not'' being peer reviewed" is highly problematic and an example of a type of advocacy relating to an anti-science mentality. Ian's inability to judge which sources are of high quality and which ones are not makes his contributions often very problematic. --] 21:15, 6 January 2006 (UTC) | |||

The problem is deciding what to do with Browse State Highways and the Junctions list... so I'd say keep it open for a week or so, but it's up to you. --'''] (] - ]) ''' 00:38, 7 January 2006 (UTC) | |||

As one of the previous contributors to {{Infobox film}} or as one of the commenters on it's talk page, I would like to inform you that there has been a RfC started on the talk page as to implementation of previously deprecated parameters. Your comments and thoughts on the matter would be welcomed. Happy editing!

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process.
