| :A replica of the ark is inappropriate for the Noah's Ark article for the same reasons as the internal link to ] would be - see ] - it is simply '''not''' information about Noah's Ark. This ark has the further problems that it is not even built, and the site is soliciting donations, making it fall under the commercial spam type category.

| * More '''possible bad news''' is that she hasn't ruled out ''all'' of the nasties, she just wants to see how I'm doing after 6 months before deciding whether to send me for more tests (current condition could be masking other symptoms). | |||
| * The '''truly excellent news''' is that so many people have been so kind and understanding. My thanks to you all. | |||

The editors on the Dawkins article have decided to integrate criticism into the article body, adding criticism of Dawkins views on religion in the religion section, for example. This has been discussed repeatedly on talk, and the consensus has been to not have a separate criticism section. I don't watch the Behe article as closely - it gets a lot less vandalism, probably because Behe is far less well known - so I cannot say whether the subject has ever come up to integrate the criticism as is done in Dawkins. If it does, I would support that. The last time I edited the Behe article was on July 18, 2006, when I added three references. ]<sup>]</sup> 18:18, 26 May 2007 (UTC) | |||

| YOU under the guise of 'administrator' and alleged impartiality are defending Dawkins and letting his 'cheerleaders' protect his page rather than have a controversy section which is quite common among bios. you specifically chose to remove the section from dawkins the alleged 'consensus' is just a small clique of pro dawkins editors who tell numerous people who object to the removal of the controversy section that 'hey we've come to a consensus'. ] 18:29, 26 May 2007 (UTC) | |||

I assure you that any changes KC made were carefully thought out and completely in accordance with WP policies and guidelines. Very few editors or admins are as dedicated as KC, or as well-versed in the fine details of how this project works.

| Mywikieditor2007, I think you need to take a step back and try to ] on KC's part. I think her edits at ] have less to do with "bias," and more to do with upholding ], especially since she is not the only editor who has objected to the addition of a "Criticism" section in that article. I have not been involved in writing the Dawkins article, but I have watched it, and a "Criticism" section has been proposed a number of times before on the Talk page. If you wish to see a "Criticism" section, or something like it, added to the Dawkins article, I think that it would be more effective for you to propose this idea on the article's Talk page and work with other editors to create a section that will address everyone's concerns. I don't think this is going to be achieved by singling out one editor out of the many who has objected to or reverted the addition of "Criticism" sections at Richard Dawkins in the past. -] (]) 19:23, 26 May 2007 (UTC) | |||

| KillerChihuahua, thank you for your suggestion at my . When I revert vandalism, I am now attempting to leave messages at the vandals' talk pages, as you suggested. As you know, it is less time-consuming to merely revert the vandalism without choosing, formatting, and posting a message at the vandals' talk pages, but I will try to do so as you suggested. I hope you do not think that there was anything disruptive about reverting vandalism without leaving messages for the vandals; disruption was not my intention, and I will assume that you ]. | |||
| However, you recently accused me of being "disruptive," when you . I take that to be an accusation of bad faith, and I ask you to please ]. | |||
| Your edit summary stated: "Reverting disruptive edit. You do not have consensus, and indeed have considerable opposition for this OR edit." You did not write anything at the discussion page, even though my edit summary said, "Rewriting section on abortion. Please see discussion page." I had explained in detail at the discussion page why I made the edit that I did, and yet you simply reverted the edit without any response at the talk page. Misplaced Pages has a policy that editors should , and I hardly think your edit summary was sufficient. | |||
| As I explained at the talk page prior to your revert, you are the one who the language of my edit (i.e. that opposing reduction in abortion time limits might be a pro-choice position). I also explained at the talk page that | |||
| Severa had not "explained anywhere why she thinks that ... opposing reduction of abortion time limits ... is not a pro-choice position." Thus, your edit summary was premature, to say the least, as neither you nor Severa had yet addressed the content of my edit. | |||

| :edit warring against consensus is disruptive. Inserting OR when multiple editors have informed you this is inappropriate is disruptive. Assuming good faith means there is a ''question'' about the editor's intent. ]<sup>]</sup> 18:48, 27 May 2007 (UTC) | |||
