Your contributions
This morning I checked to see if anyone had finally written an article on Richard Shweder and was pleased to see that you had done so. I share a number of your interests in anthropology, queer studies and Harvard, and I've written a some articles in each of these areas. I had been planning to write an article on Shweder for some time, but never got around to it.

Your idea of "a WikiProject to clean up and expand articles related to socio-cultural anthropology" is a good one, and I might be able to help. Please feel free to check out some of the articles [|I've started]. My own areal interests would be South Asia, above all, but then also be other places I've lived: Turkey, Latin America, Korea and Egypt. The universities I'm most interested in are those in which I've studied: Harvard, the University of Delhi, and the University of Chicago.

Donald Tuzin
Tuzin was a professor of mine, and I was planning on creating his article myself, but I think you've done him more justice than I ever could, so I just wanted to give you kudos! One question though. Since you are an anthropologist and perhaps own some of his books, I don't suppose any of them in the publication information section contain his year of birth?

Moribund language
Thank you for your great contributions to the Moribund language page! I noticed, though, that there are no references on the page or in the text there... as you seem knowledgeable on the subject, could you add some references to the page? Thanks! mitcho/芳貴 15:47, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for theTanya Luhrmann entry!
I've been reading Of Two Minds and found your entry on Tanya Luhrmann. It is very good. Most excellent. Just the information I was looking. Keep up the good work (or, rather, please, please continue contributing to Wikipedia).

Availability for WikiProject_Anthropology/Collaboration_of_the_month
The probable sorry state of 'core anthropology' articles on Wikipedia has been recently identified here

As a self-nominated WikiProject_Anthropology member, I thought I'd check on your interest and willingness to see anthropology better represented on Wikipedia? Bruceanthro (talk) 14:29, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Mccajor! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created  are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the list:

Thanks. I have added a number of citations and begun to flesh out a description of Naomi Quinn's intellectual legacy. I am curious, as I was looking through the Talk page, that there are categories for [category:Unknown-importance Women scientists articles] and Category:Unknown-importance Women's History articles but there don't seem to be corresponding Categories for Unknown Important Men Scientists or Unknown Importance Scientists articles. Can you enlighten me as to why women scholars get singled out for the extra scrutiny? Mccajor (talk) 22:27, 4 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi, yes I agree the categorisation by gender on Wikipedia is very odd! There are categories without a gender title e.g. "Biologists" say, and then there is a sub-category "Women biologists" but no sub-category "Men biologists". I think there have been very long and very tense discussions/arguments/fights on WP about this issue and there has never been a clear resolution. I think there are many editors who believe "women biologists" for example should be a subset of "biologists" but in my opinion "biologists" should have subcategories of "men biologists" and "women biologists". I think I'm definitely in the minority on that though! Anyway, because there is no agreement on having categories for men, there is no systematic categorisation for biographies of men on WP. MurielMary (talk) 22:55, 4 August 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification. It just brings to mind the extra scrutiny of women scholars on Wikipedia, particularly around "notability". Mccajor (talk) 19:31, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

Jungian Institutes and Societies in North America moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Jungian Institutes and Societies in North America, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
