User talk:Acourseinmiracles

Welcome, and let's talk
Dear Tony, I am going to re-edit what you recently wrote at the EA article so that it will be encyclopedia ready. Wllmcw took it out, and I don't think he has the time to edit it so that it is encyclopedic. I will do my best to keep as much as I can of your original copy. A few other things:

 I noted also that you (or someone from EA) apparently has some trouble with the links page at: Sexual/ physical abuse accounts, and apparently believes that there is some inaccuracy on that page. If you would be able to explain to me exactly what is inaccurate there, and why, I would be happy to correct it.

For future reference, at Wiki it is usually best to try to work things out via direct communication first rather than posting legal threats first on article pages, you might enhance your credibility by observing this in the future.

I removed your comment regarding what looks to you like a biased EA article from my own talk page, and re-inserted it on the EA talk page at Moved comment. I did this because I thought that it was good enough and fair enough, and related closely enough to the article to warrant being there for all to read. I also placed a reply to it there, just in case you might be wondering what happened to your comment.

My email address is scotwperry@yahoo.com if you want to contact me more directly. I will be happy to reply. It is my hope that facts/ truth, whatever they may be, will lead me and us all to an ever greater awareness.

To add a comment on a user-talk or article-discussion page, just click on the plus sign at the top of the page.

If you might be wondering how Wiki users sign their names with the links, date, etc. etc. just type in four tilde's in a row and Wiki will automatically do this for you. It took me several hours to figure out how they did that at first! :) 

Thanks for posting onto my talk page.

Some helpful information about getting around in Wiki
Dear Tony, Thanks for the good and useful edits at the EA article today. I don't think anyone has any trouble incorporating straighforward info like that into the article, which we have gladly done. I just wanted to explain to you a bit about how the an article 'History' page works....

The article history page is perhaps one of the great genuises of Wiki. It enables a user to find out exactly how the article has evolved from day 1, including basically every single detail of the article's evolution. It enables a user to see exactly who has done exactly what to the article upon every single edit that has ever been made to an article.

The reason I am explaining this to you now, is because by using the EA article history page, you will be enabled to see exactly how Willmcw and I have edited your edit, along with our stated reasonings for each step of our edits. My favorite way to use an article history page is by checking off the little radio buttons which can act to summarize a person's entire editing session into a single edit. For example, Willmcw made two edits to your edit, and I made four to it. If you want to see the sum total of my edits, rather than having to look at each one individually, you do the following:
 * 1) Click on the history tab at the top of the EA article,
 * 2) Go down to the radio button for the last edit by Willmcw and click on that,
 * 3) Then you click on the radio button in my own last edit,
 * 4) Finally you click on the 'compare selected versions' button at the top.

You can do likewise to Willmcw's edits to see what happened to the link you placed in the article. Two other things about doing Wiki edits that help others, and yourself sometimes too, to easily know what is contained in your edits. If you accessed the history page as suggested, then you may have noted that each of our edits contained summaries of exactly what was done in each edit. The two other helpful things for editing are:
 * 1) By filling in the 'Edit summary' box each time you edit with any kind of brief summary you want about what you have just edited, this is helpful for all.
 * 2) If you are doing a major edit, such as adding entirely new material to an article, then make sure that the check-box: 'This is a minor edit' is unchecked (your box was correctly unchecked when you did your edit).  If just fixing spelling, punctuation, or making minor wording changes, then check off this box before saving the edit.

Again, thanks for the helpful info.


 * Take care,
