[edit] Re: GA review of Beta Upsilon Chi
Thanks for you input. Quick question on references and reformatting the article. Can I copy and paste a paragraph from the national website without it being copyright infringement? Keylay
- Generally, you'd want to avoid cut-and-pasting information directly from a website into wikipedia, especially if you don't include a citation of where you got it from. When you do cut-and-paste, it's best to paraphrase the information, or put it into your own words, so that it's modified just enough so that it's not copied directly. Of course, if you do include information from another source, it must always include a reference citation. Dr. Cash 03:41, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism
Yep, it's frustrating, but it's inherent in the nature of a project which allows anonymous editing. I believe that the number of vandalisms per minute is probably in excess of 10,000. Fortunately, people like you work to catch and clean the damage. Thank you. --Orange Mike 14:49, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
Sometimes it is frustrating. But I'd say to keep this project up and running, everyone has to be given priveliges. And sometimes people abuse those priveliges. I have reverted so much vandalism, and sometimes it does get frustrating. I like reverting vandalism, however, as I plan to go to school for law enforcement. However, for people that absolutely cannot stand vandalism, I would suggest to join a WikiProject, and only revert vandalism if you come across it randomly. I would also suggest not to leave Wikipedia, because it does need good-faithed users like you to keep it in order. Cheers! Cool BlueLight my Fire! 23:59, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Xaldatin
Re your strange edit war over Xaldatin. Do you question the veracity of this page? -- RHaworth 03:37, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry, I missed the Wikipedia credit. I shall be suspicious of all medical sites in future - Wikipedia is not a place I would go for medical advice! -- RHaworth 05:29, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] IB Credits
I did the IB program in Colorado too. I probably should have taken advantage of the 24 credits, though. Do you know of any other states that give similar credit?
The anti-derivative is the slope at any point while the [definite] integral is the sum of the anti-derivative over an interval. An indefinite integral is the same as an anti-derivative since the integral has no defined interval. I'm starting to question myself now but I think that's correct! Kycook 21:01, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you for the barnstar! It is much appreciated. Good luck in your classes. Kycook 00:55, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Kappa Chi
Unless you can show me some evidence from a non-BYX site that Kappa Chi was influenced by BYX. Do not put it up here again. Thank You. - wikipedia user: jczup
- The paragraph you are referencing is this:
-
- After looking at BYX and considering the organization, in 1993, Kappa Upsilon Chi was founded by men who led Christian ministries and were members of Phi Gamma Delta social fraternity at Texas Tech. Like BYX, the the fraternal organization sought to be a social alternative for Christian men, an option that was only available to women at Texas Tech at that time.
- I in no way believe that this is biased and is not grounds for deletion. You yourself have admitted these facts.
-
- Quote: "Hi, after attending the Fifth Annual Leadership Summit and attending a Question and Answer session with our Founding Father, Tyler Beard, I had the opportunity to clear up the mistakes. Sigma Phi Lambda served for our inspiration after they founded on Texas Tech University. Three men tried to rush Sigma Phi Lambda when there was no male alternative. One of the founders of Kappa Upsilon Chi was an initiate in Phi Gamma Delta, a social GLO for men, and sat with the other three men and decided first to look around. They looked at Alpha Gamma Omega, Beta Upsilon Chi, Alpha Nu Omega. All three of these organizations had relatively long colonization timelines and therefore since some of the men were graduating, the decision was made to found Kappa Chi at TTU. If you would like to further argue this notion, please present factual evidence, not theories or drawn conclutions to support your writings."
- This conversation has taken place before on the discussion page of the article. Reference:
-
- "Despite someone's efforts to remove the information from the BYX and KYX entries about the origins of KYX, those origins are accurate, conform to the NPOV policy, and should be included for the information of the reader. The information can be corroborated by officials at both BYX and KYX."
- I agree with this statement, and I see no reason for keeping this out. According to the talk page, you were the only one backing up your argument, and I urge you to seek out others. If you would like, we can start this conversation back up, but by your own admission, I think this paragraph (which I worded to be EXTREMELY NPOV) belongs in the article and will revert your deletion as such until we come to a conclusion. I in no way want to be part of an edit war and will look for references. I would also appreciate it if you made your edits while logged into your account, instead of using a random IP address. Thanks. Keylay 03:14, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
Please find an actual piece of evidence that shows this documented from a NPOV source and yes, we'll keep it. If we do keep it I think you should mention all the fraternities and names that Kappa Chi thought about using. Kappa Chi makes no mention of Delta Alpha Chi or Theta Alpha on its site out of respect for the independence of those organizations even if there affiliation with Kappa Chi did inspire their creation. While I do work, I can go ahead and mark this for other Kappa Chi's to monitor and make sure things are handled correctly. Thank you.
- Be respectful to others and their points of view. This means primarily: Do not simply revert changes in a dispute. When someone makes an edit you consider biased or inaccurate, improve the edit, rather than reverting it. WP:DR Keylay 22:42, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
Hi My Friend and Christian Brother,
I made changes in accordance with factual information from the founding of Kappa Chi. I took the time to contact and find out what happened and do my research. BYX, Alpha Gamma Omega (America's Oldest National Fraternity), Alpha Nu Omega and Chi Alpha Omega at NCSU were contacted about a chapter. After looking at them all, they decided to form their own since they knew Greek Ritual and decided to implement it that way. These are the facts. Anything else and please do the research and show with documentation.
Remember my friend, "be respectful" of people's points of views as well as the facts since this is an encyclopedia and not a BYX Rush Document.
May God Bless You Always,
~jczup
Hi My Friend!
I responded to the discussion for you again.
Thank You So Much and May God Bless You Always!
-Josh
[edit] IB Programme Article
Yeah, I've been watching the article and noticed a lot of changes. I corrected a few typos but I'm afraid that more needs to be done. I think parts of the article got a needed rewrite but I don't if I agree with removing the entire criticism section. I'm not sure how familiar the person who rewrote the article is with the program! --Kycook 00:52, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to the Sixth issue of the WikiProject Christianity newsletter! Use this newsletter as a mechanism to inform yourselves about progress at the project and please be inspired to take more active roles in what we do.
Luckily, you all won't have to see my comments very often, as very little I have to say is really that important. But I would like to take the opportunity to say that I hope everyone finds the new General Forum page useful for discussing ideas relevant to Christianity in general, and feels free to make any additional comments regarding general Christianity there. Also, if any of you feel that you want to place a comment here in the future, please let us know what you want included. We would encourage all members to get more involved and if you are wondering what with, please ask. Use this newsletter as a mechanism to inform yourselves about progress at the project and please be inspired to take more active roles in what we do.
