[edit] Abortion-breast cancer hypothesis

While I appreciate your concern about the trichotomy; it was there for the explicit purpose of delineating between scientific and political sources. It also showed the sources were balanced in number, and hence discouraged link spamming of further links. Now without headers they all look the same and people will be more inclined to add more links. I don't want either to happen. - RoyBoy 13:57, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Edit warring

On multiple articles, you have been re-inserting disputed edits without prior talk page consensus. This is a form of disruptive editing called edit warring. On wikipedia, editors work together as a community, and build consensus for controversial changes through discussion and compromise. Have you had a chance to read WP:BRD? Bold edits are encouraged. However, if an editor in good faith reverts your bold edit, it is never appropriate to re-instate the controversial edit. Instead, the editor pushing for the change should go to the talk page, start a new discussion making the proposal for the changes, and discussing in detail why you feel the edit is necessary and within wikipedia guidelines. Instead of starting a discussion and trying to build consensus for your changes, you reverted back to them without discussion and in spite of multiple other editor's concerns. I ask you now, to in the future please try to avoid edit warring and needlessly reverting other editors, but instead use article talk pages to discuss your proposals whenever you meet opposition to a bold edit of yours. If you have any questions about any of this, or questions about how wikipedia works in general, feel free to ask. If you want to discuss the article content further, please use those article's talk pages (there is a tab at the top of each article that says "discussion"). Hope this helps.-Andrew c [talk] 15:06, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Joe venuti.ogg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Joe venuti.ogg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. David Mestel(Talk) 16:06, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Advice questions

You're adding advice questions to article discussion pages. Those pages are for discussion about the article, not for you to tap Wikipedian's pool of knowledge to satisfy your curiosity. Please stop. Additionally, you have been spamming the same question in several places; a tactic that is unnecessary even when the question is on task. About your Venuti questions: buy this album. You'll have the answer fairly quickly. Binksternet (talk) 17:34, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Ooops! Copy and paste accident. The link I intended is this one. Binksternet (talk) 06:18, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sound clips

Hello Geremia, Since I took the trouble to identify the Mozart on the sound clips you posted at Talk:Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, would you kindly tell me where they are from? Thanks, Opus33 (talk) 17:39, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. Opus33 (talk) 05:50, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
