League of Copyeditors roll call
Greetings from the League of Copyeditors. Your name is listed on our members page, but we are unsure how many of the people listed there are still active contributors to the League's activities. If you are still interested in participating in the work of the League, please follow the instructions at the members page to add your name to the active members list. Once you have done that, you might want to familiarise yourself with the new requests system, which has replaced the old /proofreading subpage. As the old system is now deprecated, the main efforts of the League should be to clear the substantial backlog which still exists there. The League's services are in as high demand as ever, as evinced by the increasing backlog on our requests pages, both old and new. While FA and GA reviewers regularly praise the League's contributions to reviewed articles, we remain perennially understaffed. Fulfilling requests to polish the prose of Misplaced Pages's highest-profile articles is a way that editors can make a very noticeable difference to the appearance of the encyclopedia. On behalf of the League, if you do consider yourself to have left, I hope you will consider rejoining; if you consider yourself inactive, I hope you will consider returning to respond to just one request per week, or as many as you can manage. Merry Christmas and happy editing, The League of Copyeditors. |

Removed Citation on ]
Your edit here removed a citation that was cited elsewhere in the article. Was it an unreliable source? It seems reliable to me. Please be careful when removing citation. Sligocki (talk) 02:49, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
Article move.
You moved the article and asked for one source which used this terminology? I did a quick hunt for a few. If you'd like, I could find more. All these use the terminology in the same context. This is the commonly accepted "terminology." It would be nice if you could put things back together like they're supposed to be, thanks,
You could just do a Google search to see how this is the commonly accepted name too, and thus in line with Wikipeida's naming policies...: "Sex abuse hysteria"

Just wondering if you could explain why you moved the page again completely against consensus and evidence?
Page moving
PLEASE do not try fixing things like that yourself! It is extremely frustrating trying to figure out where everything is supposed to go.
If something similar happens again, just post to WP:ANI and ask an admin to sort it out. J.delanoyadds 05:07, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
In case people do try to look up the article as "Godhra train attack" (or "incident" or "massacre"), with or without capitalized words, I've made REDIRECTs there so they see the article at Godhra train burning. This should remove any need to rename the article, and I hope it will end the dispute. — Sizzle Flambé (☎/✍) 07:47, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. The recent edit you made to the page Daily Kos has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

I don't know whether this is true, but it sounds important, and it needs a citation. Do you know where we could find one? JosiahHenderson (talk) 04:39, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
- not offhand. Could be in the general temple article or in the article on the train attack. Gotta crash (I'm working early tm). Sturunner (talk) 07:08, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
Re: Settlements and bankruptcies in Catholic sex abuse cases
Hi, I just undid your undoing of my removal of the info on the "Settlements and bankruptcies in Catholic sex abuse cases" page. I listed the reason I did this the second time as because it is redundant information that was listed above it. But you should be aware that this information did not actually appear on the page.
In addition to this, when you undid my revision, you removed the information I inserted about the Diocese of Savannah.
I would appreciate if you would not simply "undo" my revision so that you do not delete the information I have added.
The information you reinserted already appears in an edited format in the "Diocese of Sacramento" section. If the info that is there is not detailed enough please edit that section.
And *PLEASE* make sure that information you add actually appears on the wikipedia page itself. Mrbusta (talk) 17:38, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
WP:CONSENSUS
When enough people disagree with your edits, such as here and here, you are expected to accept tentative consensus and bring things up on the talk page. Please go to talk:Day care sex abuse hysteria.
Also regarding Philip Jenkins, he has done some research on the catholic sex abuse cases (see here) and further has verifiably talked about it in a newspaper. Unless there is a statement somewhere that he has altered his opinion (and it's actually noted in his CV so I doubt it) it should remain on the page.

May 2010
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Catholic sex abuse cases. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. Bilby (talk) 04:02, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
