Protection of pages

People are deleting my band! Please help me out! AFD Jack Of All Trades User:Billy M

Yes;_; User:Billy M

Dear Sharon,

In principle, I agree with you regarding protecting pages. However, with that being said I saw JoshuaZ unreasonably removing scholarly cautions regarding evolutionary ideas concerning planet formation. I believe he did that because he is unreasonable. Perhaps now that he has a higher profile in regards to supressing creationist criticisms he will stop doing it. I am not very hopeful regarding this matter based on my experiences with him at Wikipedia, however, although I would be pleasantly surprised if he does cease and desist. I wrote Aschafly about reconsidering his reversal of banning and I will see what his response is. With that being said I will try to temper my protecting of certain pages unless I see continued supression of creationist material. Conservative 15:34, 1 March 2007 (EST)conservative

Dear Sharon,

Your message to User "ILOVEJESUS" does not seem to have taken. He chopped out a portion of my Debate Topic on Infinite regression; of course I put my content back using the History feature. I also did not appreciate his calling what he did a "minor edit." Must I set my preferences to advise me of all changes, major or minor?--TerryH 23:46, 7 March 2007 (EST)

Thoughtful of you to help. --Horace 20:10, 8 March 2007 (EST)

Ketchup addition

What a great addition: ketchup! I really, really enjoyed that News of the Day, Sharon. Thank you!

Julius Caesar

I notice on that article that the large majority of the information was copied, by you, from a lecture on CP. While this isn't really breaking any rules, it's a bit strange. Do you think you could reword it so that it doens't look like it was copypasted from a lecture? GofG 17:13, 11 March 2007 (EDT)

What is a lecture on CP"? What is CP? It's OK to copy from lectures on this site.--Aschlafly 17:15, 11 March 2007 (EDT)
I think CP is the abbreviation for Conservapedia. I did copy that information from a World History Lecture. I will try to break it down into sections and reword parts of it to make it more usable. ~ SharonS 16:52, 12 March 2007 (EDT)
That's fine to copy material from other areas of Conservapedia, including lectures. Nothing wrong with that at all!
I guess we have a new abbreviation now: CP!--Aschlafly 16:58, 12 March 2007 (EDT)

Thanks, Blocking policy

Sharon, thanks so much for your terrific blocks and edits. Feel free to use longer blocks for clear problems. Most of my blocks are for infinite duration, because I don't want problems to be coming back on expirations of short blocks. But I defer to your judgment.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to you, Sharon!

The eleven disciples went to the hill in Galilee where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him, Jesus drew near and said to them, "I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Go, then, to all peoples everywhere and make them my disciples: baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And I will be with you always, to the end of the age." Matthew 28
Then Peter began to speak: “I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts men from every nation who fear him and do what is right. You know the message God sent to the people of Israel, telling the good news of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all. You know what has happened throughout Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached— how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him. “We are witnesses of everything he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed him by hanging him on a tree, but God raised him from the dead on the third day and caused him to be seen. He was not seen by all the people, but by witnesses whom God had already chosen—by us who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one whom God appointed as judge of the living and the dead. All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.” —Acts 10:34-43 NIV

... terms

Are the 'terms' pages that useful in light of proper categorization? One could just go to the category and see the terms there. Alternatively, if the 'terms' pages are to be useful, templates at the top to do the names would be much cleaner than the current cut and pasted block. There are also a large number of terms that are capital letters (Acid Ionization Reaction for example from Chemistry Terms A) which make it a proper noun and require either multiple redirects or pipe links to properly have it included in the text as acid ionization reaction. What is the best way to go about fixing these problems? --Mtur 19:57, 4 May 2007 (EDT)

Thanks for your ideas! I think I will make a template for the top of the pages now. As for terms with capital letters, I will try to correct them as I see them, and hope everyone will do the same. Eventually, that should resolve the problem. ~ SharonS Talk! 20:01, 4 May 2007 (EDT)
With a little bit of template magic, it would be possible to make one template that accommodates all terms pages with a variable. I am still confused as to the usefulness of the terms pages (and the master lists) given proper categorization of the terms in the pages one could just go to the category page instead which is automagicaly updated as new items are added. --Mtur 20:05, 4 May 2007 (EDT)

Geometry terms

Hi there, I just noticed you have been playing with the geometry term list things, but I'm not sure where you are going with it.

Can I suggest that (like the other "term lists") they simply be removed? Categories are a much better way to group subjects on a wiki, since they are automatic. I did something like that to, I think, a musical instrument list that started from the "index" page. Example: say someone writes a nice article on a new geometry term. They would have to know, somehow, to add it to the term list. But any editor is likely to add [[category:geometry]], which automatically adds it to the nicely alphabetized category page, and creates a link to that page as well.

The term lists may have served a function in the early days of the site, but are a redundant workaround when categories are available.

Just a thought. Oh, and PS, hope you're having a lovely Sunday! Human 21:49, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

I think the categories are a great idea. I keep forgetting to put them on the pages I edit! I think the indexes are necessary for some of the very broad subjects (such as the history terms). These indexes are geared towards students and are intended to help them in their studies by outlining the most important facts they need to know. Having all the terms in one category is pretty overwhelming, and the alphabetical indexes help to divide the terms into smaller chunks. Also, the Indexes are much more accessible for students who don't know much about Wikis and how to use the categories, since they are right on the side bar. I personally prefer the categories, but think we should keep the indexes for the time being. Thanks, ~ SharonTalk 21:59, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

...as jazz is to 4/4 time... (Abstract Expressionism)

I don't think that's right. 4/4 time is very common in jazz. Think of Basin Street Blues or St. James Infirmary. This page says "Common time is 4 - 4 is the traditional time signature for ballads, rock, jazz, Latin American, Spanish paso doble and many other idioms," and virtually all blues is in 4/4 time. I think even boogie-woogie (as in Mondrian's "Broadway Boogie-Woogie") is usually notated as 4/4 time, although maybe it should be 8/8.

In fact Dave Brubeck's famous 1959 album Time Out and his signature piece Take Five were so attention-getting precisely because they explored rhythms other than 4/4.

Unless I'm missing your point... Dpbsmith 18:23, 22 May 2007 (EDT)

You're right. I guess it should say something more like "as jazz is to Mozart". The point is that Abstract Expressionism went drastically away from the traditions for art. ~ SharonTalk 18:30, 22 May 2007 (EDT)

Witchcraft

<<Stop filling articles with liberal bias, as you did in Witchcraft. ~ SharonTalk 10:23, 23 May 2007 (EDT)>

Are you interested in the truth or do you honestly look at the world through rose colored glasses tinted to view only what you want to see?

I typed the truth, not a bit of bias was in what I said. Nor am I a witch. I am a Druid, which you had no problem allowing Druidry to be placed under Wicca as a subsection if Wicca. Druidry is NOT a form of Wicca and never has been. Wicca is less than a hundred years old with Druidry dating back to the Hibernia and the ancient British Isles. My family had to hide for hundreds of years because of the bigotry and bias coming from Christian zealots that claimed anything that was not Christian was evil. If you are so sure Witchcraft and its followers are evil, then why even allow anything to be written on this list. It would seem you are the self appointed list monitor and guardian of the truth. Well the truth is regardless of what you believe is that a witch is not a devil worshipper or evil. It would appear to me the bias is on your part and your denial of letting anyone else say anything that is contrary to your beliefs.

Lady Caillech Beara Druid Council of Elders An Clare County An Clare Ireland

Interestingly, I don't believe there is a "Druid Council of Elders" in Co. Clare. Unless you have perhaps just created it. Perhaps you would enlighten me :) Fox 10:48, 23 May 2007 (EDT)


Actually I didn't say the Druid Council of Elders was in An Clare, but merely that I am from An Clare and now live in the United States. I am actually part of the House of Keltria.

The Henge of Keltria has a complex structure. The day-to-day running of the Henge is done by a Board of Trustees, which at this time should be composed of three or more members from the membership of the Henge of Keltria elected for three years terms, and four officers: President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer. All but the treasurer are elected by the membership at the annual meeting.

Theological direction is provided by a Council of Elders. This council is composed of no more than nine members elected from and by the active members of the Ring of Oak. The Council of Elders can override the Board of Directors and officers in all matters pertaining to the spiritual and philosophical goals of the organization. The spokesperson of the Council of Elders is the Arch-druid, who is elected from the Council of Elders. Groves may be created by three active members. Groves must apply to the Board of Trustees for a charter and be approved by the Council of Elders to become a Keltrian grove. A newly formed Grove is designated a “seed-grove” until the Council of Elders chooses to remove that designation after review of grove activities. Groves must meet at least once a month.

If the grove leader is a member of the Ring of Birch (or higher), then the grove may be designated as a “Birch Grove.” If the grove leader is a member of the Ring of Yew and at least two other members of the Grove are members of the Ring of Birch or higher, a grove may be designated as a “Yew Grove.” If a grove leader is a member of the Ring of Oak and at least two other members of the Grove are members of the Ring of Yew or higher, a grove may be designated as an “Oak Grove.”

Keltrian Study Groups are informal groups of people who gather to study Keltrian Druidism and regularly practice Keltrian ritual that may be formed by any member.

Hope this explains it better.

Conservapedia is biased towards Conservative values and Christianity. The original witchcraft article reflected the Christian view of Witchcraft. Your edits added some good information, but they removed the Christian bias, and reflected a "tolerant" liberal view.

Number of articles

Hi Sharon: This is my first visit to Conservapedia. I was looking around at the site, and I noticed that the number of articles that you refer to on the main page doesn't match up with the current statistics on Special:Statistics. There's actually an easier way to keep the number of article pages updated on your main page, without having to update it by hand. You can add this template: {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}, which does it automatically. According to the site statistics, there's currently 55,043 pages on Conservapedia.

I don't mean any criticism; I just wanted to point out that there's an easier way. Unfortunately, that would mean possibly reserving the 10,000 articles celebration until the wiki's actually hit that milestone. Anyway, that's all -- talk to you later! Dannyhorn 14:09, 27 May 2007 (EDT)

Article creation drive

I created something new on the main page: Conservapedia:Articles That Need To Created

That's excellent! I'll try to fill in some of them as I have time. ~ SharonTalk 16:32, 2 June 2007 (EDT)

Molecular Biology

I noticed many articles popping up dealing with Molecular Biology, Molecular Genetics and Genetics. I saw that many of them are pretty short and are not specific enough to show the finer differences between certain topics. By chance are you using a text book for the article creation or recounting information you may have learned in a Biology class? I was waiting for a consensus on what age group we are supposedly writing for. Ed redirected my Gene Expression article because it was difficult for him to understand. It was written at an AP biology level taught in the US. I wanted clarification before editing any more articles and having several hours of work tossed because someone who has not been in a biology class in the past 5 years could not understand the terminology. If you are interested in having someone flesh out the articles let me know.--TimS 10:46, 5 June 2007 (EDT)

I just looked at your version of the article on Gene expression. I think it is completely in line with the age level guideline (stated here). The topic of Gene expression is quite advanced, and so the article should explain the topic as simply as possible, and then expound upon it in the body of the article. The first paragraph was easy for me to understand, and I think it should be understandable to any high school student who has taken biology. Please feel free to restore your version of the article. Any improvements you wish to make to other articles are welcome. Thanks, ~ SharonTalk 11:48, 5 June 2007 (EDT)

Template

Thanks a lot for telling me how to make a template...it wasn't at all confusing! DeborahB. 21:26, 6 June 2007 (EDT)

You're welcome. BTW, the Senate terms you are working on are excellent. ~ SharonTalk 21:28, 6 June 2007 (EDT)

attilla the hun article

I saw your Attila the Hun material. You added a lot of material to the article which was excellent. However, if we are to effectively compete with Wikipedia which has a fairly big headstart we are going to have to footnote our material. And it is a Conservapedia rule that you must source your material. I know you do a lot for Conservapedia and so I hope you take this suggestion as the friendly note it is.

Thank you for the tip. I will try to be more diligent about my footnotes in the future. Thanks, ~ SharonTalk 07:05, 8 June 2007 (EDT)

Well

He sure was nice.--Elamdri 23:12, 11 June 2007 (EDT)

Certainly one of the nastier ones I've seen. ~ SharonTalk 23:14, 11 June 2007 (EDT)
A vandal, I assume? --SimonA 15:47, 14 June 2007 (EDT)
Obviously so. Anyone names to be named? --SimonA 15:56, 14 June 2007 (EDT)

Quick work!

That two edit user was actually an automated "Bot", Sharon. You made quick work of it! --Sysop-TK /MyTalk 16:34, 16 June 2007 (EDT)
