AMA Request
I've taken a look at your case and if you would like to discuss some more I would be happy to point out some areas where I think you are running into trouble with your arguments. --Wgfinley 04:36, 23 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Of course! But please don't just take my own arguments as the end-all for whether or not something is wrong there.  A whole host of people who have made much better arguments on the article have come before me, and they've been treated the same way.  I have more tried to point out the bad behavior than anything. --Cbaus 05:19, 27 December 2005 (EDST-USA)

Civility warning
Please don't use incivil edit summaries such as this. Also, you might wish to consider WP:POT; having checked your contribution history, I find you do little other than the Lott article William M. Connolley (talk) 18:21, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

John Lott plagiarism
Your recent edit,, is revealed to be plagiarism by a quick search of the title of the article you tried to cite, (The article you actually cited,  is just PR from a blog). I must ask you if your previous edit,, was plagiarism, too. Was it? WhyDoIKeepForgetting (talk) 20:29, 3 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Let me back off that a bit: plagiarism implies intent. It was a long, direct quote, though not identified as such, which is not allowed here. WhyDoIKeepForgetting (talk) 20:30, 3 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks for backing off, because I wasn't intent on plagarizing, but rather on quoting the story. I reworked it, though, and provided a link to the news story rather than the blog.  And yes, the words from the previous edit are my own.  CBaus (talk) 4 March 2009
