State of Fear
Hi there. When you said "primary source", do you mean the book itself? Because if Yes, then it is no good, it is Crichton saying so, and the previous writing must be kept. If the answer is No, then please provide the source. Otherwise, some of the regular editors (not me) will reverse your edit. Also, with controversial articles be aware of WP:3RR, read it. Welcome to Wiki.--Mariordo (talk) 03:51, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

It is important to note that the sources his supply are disputed in some circles in the overview (it is misleading just to say "real life examples" only).... while your rewrite is more readable then mine it does miss that minor detail that is critical --Aryeh M.

 * Since you have been a regular for a while, with good NPOV edits, I would like to invite you to participate in the discussion in the Talk page, regarding my latest edits and an attempt to end the edit war, in order to move on and do more constructive edits to improve the article.--Mariordo (talk) 04:06, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Homeopathy
Hi. I've noticed that many of your edits to the homeopathy page are being reverted for various reasons. Please don't see this as an attack. In future in may be better to start a discussion about any edits you wish to make on the talk page (except for formatting fixes, typos, etc) and then we can discuss your suggestions or develop them further for inclusion. Also, as you will see on the talk page, homeopathy and related articles are subject to some special sanctions you should be aware of. All the best. Verbal  chat  07:53, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

August 2008
Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. Please remember to observe our core policies. Badger Drink (talk) 19:42, 31 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Thank you. I reviewed a core policy about "Original Research" and "Synthesis". From what I can tell, this seems to be a major problem with respect to the ExxonMobil page. I will attempt to help clean this up. Punctilius (talk) 00:10, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Agreement on issues
It seems we both agree on what issues we have both edited.... for that reason I would like to discuss some edit ideas privately with you.... send me email (aryeh.friedman@gmail.com) and I will tell you what I am thinking there. (If your on google IM or some other IM that has a FreeBSD/Linux client let me know) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aryeh M. Friedman (talk • contribs) 02:28, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
