== Page move for ''We Love Katamari'' ==

I see that you recently moved both the page and talk page from ''We Love Katamari'' to ''We (heart symbol) Katamari''. I will call your attention to the discussion on the talk page from about a year ago where it was decided that while the game '''was''' named ''We (heart symbol) Katamari'', WP's accessibility rules were clear that the page should not use special symbols in the main page name and thus was reverted or kept at ''We Love Katamari'' with the appropriate redirect from ''We (heart symbol) Katamari''. Unless you have a better reason, this change you did will be reverted. --[[User:Masem|M<~~font~~span ~~size~~style="font-3size:x-small;">ASEM</~~font~~span>]] 14:09, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

:Look at [[I_Heart_Huckabees]]. The URL reads as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Heart_Huckabees http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Heart_Huckabees], but the page title is '''I ♥ Huckabees'''. [[We ♥ Katamari]] should be treated no differently. I am not sure how to do this, but it should be implemented there too. [[User:Photouploaded|Photouploaded]] 15:51, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Just letting you know that you (and the user with whom you were warring) both violated [[WP:3RR]] on two separate articles, [[Pregnancy options counseling]] and [[Crisis pregnancy center]]. Keep in mind that 3RR just means that you undid the work of another editor multiple times, and this doesn't mean you have to have made the same revert (it could be 3 separate reverts, and partial reverts count as well). But what isn't important is the technicalities, but that you have been engaged in edit warring with practically no talk page discussion. What you need to do is to stop making controversial edits to the article, and go to the talk page and state specifically the issues you have and make proposals to fix those issues, so that other users can comment and collaborate so you can both come to an agreement. Wikipedia is a community and we work together. Fighting over edits on a live article is disruptive and unprofessional. Please be the bigger of the two and stop the fighting and go to the talk page. If the disruption continues, the article could become locked from editing, or worse, you could be temporarily blocked from editing altogether. -[[User:Andrew c|Andrew c]] [[User talk:Andrew c|[talk]]] 16:40, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

:Please do not use my name and "status" as an admin to try to give more credence to a version of an article. I am just an editor like anyone else, and during content disputes, my opinion is simply that, one opinion among many. No more, no less. Next, you have been doing a lot of reverting on [[Pregnancy options counseling]], yet you haven't said one word on the talk page. How do you think Monnica Williams will know why her edits are problematic if you don't tell her. I'm sure you two can work together, if you both agree to stop the in article fighting, and try to reach a version on the talk page which you both can agree with. -[[User:Andrew c|Andrew c]] [[User talk:Andrew c|[talk]]] 21:06, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

::Sorry, I thought if an admin had looked at it and thought it was OK, that that was better than some new random unsourced additions. I have seen people revert back to a version before either person got to it before.... [[User:Photouploaded|Photouploaded]] ([[User talk:Photouploaded#top|talk]]) 21:08, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

:::During a content dispute, reverting to a longstanding "consensus" version instead of choosing to take sides is a good step. I understand now what you were doing Photouploaded, and it makes sense. I just got defensive when I saw my name attached to it. I think reverting to the old version because it has been longstanding is much more valid than reverting to a version because I had edited it. Thanks for clearing that up.-[[User:Andrew c|Andrew c]] [[User talk:Andrew c|[talk]]] 17:57, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

== Your recent edits to [[Transgender]] ==

Based upon your recent edits to [[Transgender]], I'm guessing that you may not be familiar with [[WP:MOS|Wikipedia's Manual of Style]], in particular the section on [[WP:MOS#Images|images]]. The reason why pixel sizes should not be specified on images is that it overrides user preferences. Since some users (me included) have their preference set at 300px, edits such as your recent ones actually force the images in the article to be smaller than they were when there was no pixel size specified.

I note that you also removed the ''upright'' option from at least one image. This is also specified in the MoS in order to better scale images that are taller than they are wide.

Please don't reformat images that conform to the MoS to not conform to MoS unless there is a specific page formatting or rendering problem to necessitate it.

If you want to change your own user settings to make thumbnails larger, you can do so by going to your [[Special:Preferences|preferences]], select the '''Files''' tab, select the thumbnail size that you want, then save changes. --[[User:AliceJMarkham|AliceJMarkham]] ([[User talk:AliceJMarkham|talk]]) 23:10, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

==Abortion page==

It looks like things are heating up on the abortion page. Let's talk things out on the discussion page. Edits have been happening too quickly at the moment, and some editors need time to think things though. Let's have a constructive talk on the discussion page.

== Osteoporosis ==

I don't understand ''at all'' your insistence on removing content from [[osteoporosis]]. What you have done essentially removes the explanation why malnutrition would cause osteoporosis. I agree that a source is needed for this explanation (because protein or energy could be equally important), but I wonder what your actual reason is for removing this particular piece of information. Wikipedia is chock-a-block with uncited content, and we are gradually adding sources to this. Rather then removing this content, it would be much more helpful if you could do a PubMed or Google search and find a source!

I have not restored the content, because I'm waiting for your explanation, but your response would be appreciated. [[User:Jfdwolff|JFW]] | [[User_talk:Jfdwolff|T@lk]] 20:36, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

:An encyclopedia should not be "chock-a-block" with uncited material. It's that simple. There is a lot of debate on the Talk page as to which aspect of malnutrition leads to osteoporosis. I'm not comfortable championing one reason or another. The editor who added that is burdened with the responsibility of proving the claim, not me. [[User:Photouploaded|Photouploaded]] ([[User talk:Photouploaded#top|talk]]) 20:41, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

==Genital modification==

Just wanted to say nice work on your edits to [[genital modification and mutilation]]. Way to be bold and fix things! Given your work over there and on abortion, I wonder if you'd be interested in the issues with the [[reproductive rights]] page?

== Your erasure on [[Bisexual erasure]] ==

I saw you removed my hard work. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bisexual_erasure&diff=180918564&oldid=180910184] This is an incident where someone who was bisexual was denied being bisexual and derired and called a faker. Is this not what the article is about? Its first line is "Bisexual erasure is the tendency to ignore, remove, falsify, or reexplain evidence of bisexuality in the historical record, academic materials, the news media, and other primary sources." ????? [[User:William Ortiz|William Ortiz]] ([[User talk:William Ortiz|talk]]) 05:20, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

== In re: [[Bisexual erasure]] ==

While assuming nothing but [[Wikipedia:Assume good faith|good faith]] on your part, due to the history of as well as lively and vigorous discussion about this article, I have restored it and substituted instead two [[Help:Merging and moving pages#Proposing a merger|merger discussion boxes]], one on [[Bisexual erasure]] and one on [[Biphobia]].

I look forward to discussing and working on these and other subjects with you in the future. Respectfully [[User:CyntWorkStuff|CyntWorkStuff]] ([[User talk:CyntWorkStuff|talk]]) 02:00, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

==GM&M==

I just wanted to discuss your reasonable issues over at [[Genital modification and mutilation]]. I know you spent a lot of time on the article. Your valuable contributions are evident. However, I think the general consensus was perceived to be for a list or a category. I don't think Jakew was onboard with the expansion to a new article. I think Homologeo has a point (I'm inferring) that text on these issues will attract a lot of unwarranted attention for POV issues, real and perceived.

This is no way a commentary on the quality of your work. If you have any questions, please feel free to respond here or on my talk page (I'm avoiding the article talk for the moment). [[User:Phyesalis|Phyesalis]] ([[User talk:Phyesalis|talk]]) 19:44, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

:Thanks for writing to me. Frankly, the article [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Genital_modification_and_mutilation&oldid=178787732 as it stood before I got to it] was in horrid shape. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Genital_modification_and_mutilation&oldid=180980242 list version] was meant to strip it down to bare bones, to see what items we had to work with. I can see the case for a list style article but so far no one has really made a case ''against'' the expanded version. [[User:Photouploaded|Photouploaded]] ([[User talk:Photouploaded#top|talk]]) 19:52, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

::You're more than welcome. You were bold, put in a lot of good work, and seemed to get little in return. But both Jakew and I thought you did a great job on the list. It was a huge improvement. However, I think the point about GM&M being a synthetic category (one that would be hard to source as a whole) is a good one.

::One idea might be to go over WP rationale on [[WP:lists]] and see if there is anything in there to argue from. [[User:Phyesalis|Phyesalis]] ([[User talk:Phyesalis|talk]]) 21:22, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

==[[:Adult-child sex]]==

[[Image:Nuvola apps important yellow.svg|left|48px|]]

Another editor has added the "{{tl|prod}}" template to the article [[Adult-child sex]], suggesting that it be deleted according to the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion]] process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not]] and [[Wikipedia:Notability]]). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at [[Talk:Adult-child sex|its talk page]]. If you remove the {{tl|prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion]], where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

==Article Archiving==

Your recent archiving edit of the Talk Page associated with the article formerly entitled "Adult-child sex" seems to have resulted in two previously-formed archive pages being blanked. Could you possibly see if this problem can be corrected? Likewise, it may be preferable not to archive this particular Talk Page at this time, due to the heated discussion in progress. ~ [[User:Homologeo|Homologeo]] ([[User talk:Homologeo|talk]]) 15:00, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

:I am not finished. Also, the page is so large that people on dialup connections cannot participate; so it really must be cut down to size. [[User:Photouploaded|Photouploaded]] ([[User talk:Photouploaded#top|talk]]) 15:03, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

::Point well taken. Please continue =) ~ [[User:Homologeo|Homologeo]] ([[User talk:Homologeo|talk]]) 15:04, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

:Actually, the incorrect links were not a result of my archiving; they were a result of the page move. Check the links; they are still subpages of [[Talk:Adult-child sex]]. [[User:Photouploaded|Photouploaded]] ([[User talk:Photouploaded#top|talk]]) 15:18, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

== Pregnancy and weight gain ==

I have been trying very hard to offer valid contribution to the pregnancy page in the past few days, since I first saw the page, despite alot of hostility from people who probably know very little on the matter. If you check I think you'll agree that, ''''''at least'''''', I seem to know what I'm talking about (that's what the kinder element have been writing about me). Simply removing things I have rectified or added because you don't agree is not very amusing, to say the least. Could you possibly have the courtesy to just limit yourself to some sort of "citation needed" (or thingy to that effect) to something you don't like the look of and give people a chance? I refer to your removal of the phrase relating to optimal weight gain in gravidas with normal BMI. 10 - 12 kg is the norm, you'll find, and by removing this information and leaving a sentence that basically says "you need to eat more" is very dangerous. Are you ready to take resposibility for your actions? Thank you. --[[User:Drrem|Drrem]] ([[User talk:Drrem|talk]]) 17:49, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

== "Dairy products and red meat can also (???) be used" ==

Hold on a sec!!!

I object to the insinuation. What I re-wrote derives from a simple fact of life. I think that you will find that dairy product/red meat consumers far outnumber the soybean consumers amongst '''us''' (excluding remote parts of the world that don't have access to the internet, including affluent society - reality of life). Why invert this? Minorities are minorites and should NOT dictate policy. Minorities tag along and are rightly accepted as such. Minorities should respect the majority just as the reverse is true and should not play on the "politically correct factor". '''THAT''' is why dairy product and red meat consumption should be mentioned before soy milk consumption. We must get our priorities right and not exagerate with political correctness.

I'll give you '''an example'''. What you're conveying is like saying: "going to work on foot or by bike is adequate. You can also go to work by car". I believe MOST people get to their workplace with the latter method. As a result saying "going to work by car ia adequate. You can also go to work on foot or by bike" is fairer and more representative of society.

N'est-ce pas?

<s>Otherwise I'll just have to equate your revert to "eager beaverness" or to "vegetarian brain syndrome".</s>

:Dietary habits are very much a product of a person's beliefs and sometimes of their culture. Humans are remarkably adaptable and are able to subsist on a wide variety of foods, from a heavily meat-based diet as in the case of the [[Inuit]], who subsist primarily on raw fish and seal meat, all the way to the [[raw vegan]] diet, which is comprised of raw vegetables, fruits and nuts. The [[vegetarian]] article lists the numerous cultures in which vegetarianism is commonplace, and the religions which involve a vegetarian diet as part of the religious tradition. In these cultures, eating red meat is not normal or acceptable. This has nothing to do with "dictating policy". There is no "policy", there are simply different behaviors. I think that Wikipedia has a tendency to favor the American viewpoint and consider that "normal" above other cultures.
