Skeptics

edit

Greetings, I responded to your concern on my talk page, but I wanted to reassure you that nothing is being deleted. All the links will be fixed, and all the lists and tools will be preserved. I am not into deleting things. The Pseudoscience project is being merged into the Rational Skepticism project, and all members will continue to be members. This was discussed on the project talk pages. Greg Bard (talk) 19:50, 21 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hey its me again and its about the project. I want to put Anneliese Michel(especially that section which has no citations) in the project page to-do list since I cannot find any good sources and some are in german, what do you think? Also I'm working on Basava Premanand(which was on the to-do list) and trying to find sources to expand it right now, suppose I manage to do this should I remove it from the list? Thanks. -Ugog Nizdast (talk) 06:32, 24 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi, yes, please add Anneliese Michel, anything you think is skeptic related is ok to add to the list. Also, please add our tag on talk pages of articles, Anneliese's talk page doesn't show our interest, so if you add it the page will be included in our statistics and we will continue to monitor it. If you have German sources I can find you help with translations if you need it? Or we could have a German speaker update the page. Basava Premanand's page has our tag on it so it is ok to remove it from the 'to do' list. We can also help with proofreaders, people like MrBill are great at picking up typos and where we have broken Wiki rules. I can ask someone to do proofreading for your skeptic project articles if you like? Joolzzt (talk) 13:33, 24 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
I added it to the list and removed the other one. Also on her article page, I have put the project's template and hope it is done correctly since there is no rating or any other information yet. You can help with German? That would be great. I can't do much regarding the Anneliese article at least by what I've searched so far. I have updated the Basava Premanand article but it still needs some work, why don't you briefly skim through it? I haven't finished it but later it would be good if it got some proofreading. -Ugog Nizdast (talk) 10:54, 25 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
Great updates for Basava Premanand. May I suggest reverting to skeptic with a 'k'? I know it isn't the 'correct' spelling but an explanation of why we tend to use the 'k' can be found here http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/User:Joolzzt/Edinburgh_Skeptics#Skeptics_With_A_.E2.80.98K.E2.80.99. May I also suggest changing the heading 'challenge' to the name of the challenge? If challenge is continuing it would be good to say that too. An interesting read, thank you. Let me know when you are ready for a skeptic proofreader. Joolzzt (talk) 18:04, 25 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, Get back to you after some time. -Ugog Nizdast (talk) 19:14, 25 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
