If fear is not a factor, it's certainly odd that I get so very few answers to simple and direct questions. It's also odd that so much of what I posted to the McCarthy article, all of which was cited and factual, was removed. --[[User:PF Fox|PF Fox]] 18:37, 31 March 2007 (EDT)

:Without having looked at the edits... and without knowing your opinions of McCarthy... let me say that it is perfectly possible for things to be "cited and factual," yet tendentious. A good example would be [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Brown_University&oldid=66556 the initial version of the article on Brown University]. Take a look at it: it is completely factual and almost completely cited (and a citation for the "slavery" section is easily found). I say this because whenever someone says "everything I added was cited and factual," it always raised a bit of a red flag in ''my'' mind. Now let me go look at those edits...

Thanks for the suggestion. I wasn't attacking him, I was genuinely amused by the fact that that was not immediately reverted, and especially with an edit summary like it was given. [[User:Linus M.|Liπus the Turbogeek]]^{([[User talk:Linus M.|contact me]])} 10:28, 1 April 2007 (EDT)
