Hello, I'm Widr. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Babyface (musician) because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

Concerned

I must say I'm concerned about these edits that you made to the George P. Fletcher page. You seem to have removed a portion of a list of books and academic papers he has authored. You left no edit summaries, and no comments on the talk page. Why did you feel that vast quantity of material should be removed? ~ ONUnicorn^{(Talk|Contribs)}problem solving 17:59, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

They are not actually notable and you can read this. Those entries looked like a directory. SamuelDay1 (talk) 18:01, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick response; I was merely concerned about seeing so much vanish with no edit summary or talk page note, especially since I had thought it was normal in articles about academics and authors to include a list of their published works (or at least their significant ones). I see you did leave some books, and I haven't looked into every book or article to see if it's significant; but I do wonder about some of the articles. Disenfranchisement as Punishment, for example, has been cited in legal literature at least 91 times, including in a case.

At any rate, I was more curious as to your reasoning than anything else. Thanks again for the response. ~ ONUnicorn^{(Talk|Contribs)}problem solving 18:32, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Callanecc They are not talking about any alternative medicines or Acupunture, users are having a level of dispute over the word 'quackery' and calling him a conspiracy theorist. How that is related to these sanctions? SamuelDay1 (talk) 06:34, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

The quackery they are talking about is considered by some to be complementary and alternative medicine. And some of the conspiracy theories are related to complementary and alternative medicine. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 08:37, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Yes there are large amount of conspiracy theories, not only about medicines but also many other unrelated categories. Got it now that the page is under sanctions. SamuelDay1 (talk) 08:40, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
