hypnosis NPOV ?
Hi Bernard, I would like you to indicate what exactly the NPOV dipute is about on the Hypnosis article, since I'm curious. (In the meantime, I'm removing the tag.) Thx. &#151; Xiutwel ♫☺♥♪ (talk) 12:12, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Fox News Channel and NPOV
Your assertion that you are creating a more neutral sentence is completely inaccurate, and your edit summary which implies I am enforcing a liberal bias is unacceptable. First, please read WP:NPOV, then read Reliable sources. The sources provided for the statement you are altering do not claim only liberals accuse FNC of bias. If you can prove this to be true, using a reliable source, then your edit will be neutral. Until then, it is biased, original research, and far from neutral. Please revert your edit. - auburn pilot   talk  20:19, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Transhumanism
They argue that it is a flaw, not a perceived flaw. What is described is the arugment. The other edit was reverted by mistake, sorry. Zazaban (talk) 00:13, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Re:
The suffix -phobia does indeed typically refer to an "irrational" fear, though it may also simply connote a "strong aversion to." The definition intended by sociologists doesn't necessarily include this factor of irrationality. In the context of Islamophobia, the phobia is supposed to refer to a social anxiety (Gottschalk 2007). The original source itself (Encyclopedia of Race and Ethnic studies) doesn't use scare quotes in this instance either. Regards,  ITAQALLAH   22:26, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
