I think it has been mentioned on the talkpage, but the reason for over-sourcing is unfortunately a common one in this area - the demands of the true believers. Anything critical has to be oversourced or the followers claim it does not represent scientific consensus etc. Only in death does duty end (talk) 11:24, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not every source verified the claim. QuackGuru (talk) 19:23, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

About the recent RfC

About the recent Rfc [1]: I had the following conversation with Nyttend: [2] . Any comments at all? --Jules (Mrjulesd) 19:54, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like the RfC close was a WP:VOTE like many RfC closes. Comments are usually irrelevant on Wikipedia. It is about the votes not who said what. QuackGuru (talk) 20:27, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Re: RFC

Your position was rejected by many participants; when one side interprets an idea one way, and the other another way, the closer can't just assume that one interpretation is right and the other wrong. Nyttend (talk) 22:05, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
