IE, panic > that is more planned is better; however, any panic is "okay" I guess as long as I don't start cursing or something, I suppose.

I received the above complaint in my "messages" but apparently the complainer has left the message anonymously, doesn't seem to have a good grasp of the english language, and has seemed to have missed the point of my edit, which only moved information (from "nootropic" to the new page "cognitive enhancer") and didn't delete any content. The point was to stop the abuse of the word nootropic, which refers to a special class of cognitive enhancers. As the rule quoted by the anonymous source states that changes may be made as long as there are no objections, and since the only objector seems to have a wrong impression that information was deleted, and also since nobody has reverted any of my changes, I'll just have to assume that what I did was a good edit. -bloodleech


 * Hi Bloodleech! Thank you for your efforts with the article Cognitive enhancer. Unfortunately, an effect was that the article now contradicts itself, first stating that nootropics are something different, then asserting that they are synonymous. For the same reason, it also contradicts the article Nootropics. It was also very confusing that the Cognitive enhancer article had a lot of text talking about nootropics, when the first section explained that they are something different.
 * On principle, you shouold not copy substancial parts of an article to another one. Not only is this likely to cause confusion, it is also a copyright violation and thus illegal under the laws of many countries.
 * For a start, could you give a reliable SOURCE for your cognitive enhancer/nootropic distinction? Wikipedia sees it as very important to source statements made here, otherwise people could just write anything, and who could tell the difference between a made-up statment and a well-founded one? (I am not suggesting, of course, that your distinction were made up.)
 * Secondly, I would strongly suggest that you read some of the pages linked to from the welcome section above, especially the Manual of style. A hint: The lead section of the article (the part above the table of contents) is (or should be) carefully designed – adding paragraphs above it is likely to mess up the whole introduction to the article. When you make major changes to an article, it is a good idea to read it afterwards and see whether it still makes sense, and whether its ideas are still presented in a logical order. Keep in mind that most people who read an article you edited will know much less about the subject than you, and therefore might be easily confused by an article with an unclear structure and presentation of ideas.
 * Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Cheers, ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 13:36, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Darker Realms


The article Darker Realms has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Lacks significant coverage; no more than trivial mentions in books or reliable online sources

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on |the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. czar 16:58, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
