Hi, SlimVirgin. I am wondering if you wouldn't mind helping with the {{Article|Effects of pornography}} article whenever you have time. After leaving this article two days ago, I immediately realized that we were focusing too much on what is [[WP:MEDRS]]-compliant, but that a lot regarding this topic has to do with social issues, which means that WP:MEDRS sources are not always required. The main reasons that I had not edited this article too heavily is because my brother had focused on the article as an IP, there was POV-pushing on both sides, and, since the research on the effects of pornography [https://books.google.com/books?id=TMIVujqHVwQC&pg=PA164 is mostly negative], it would make it seem like I was pushing my own personal POV when I was actually simply following what the sources state. I'm asking you for your help because I know how good you are with articles that pertain to women's issues (and the effects of pornography is partly a women's issue), and because you are just an all-around excellent editor. I don't think I've collaborated with you on anything (except for a past matter at the [[Vegetarianism]] article and agreeing with you on a other few matters). And working with you on this could be our first big collaboration. [[User:Flyer22 Reborn|Flyer22 Reborn]] ([[User talk:Flyer22 Reborn|talk]]) 18:45, 6 February 2017 (UTC) |

Ta
Not often I get thanked for sorting a typo... I get very irritated sometimes offwiki when I can't correct things. Like one I saw today where both 'independant' and 'independent' appeared on the same sign. (Hedging their bets?) I did get thanked offwiki once for pointing out that a 'now' should have been a 'not' before embarrassment resulted. But my two favourite mistakes have got to be a chap putting up an illuminated sign reading 'FISH AND CHIPS', while leaning against the wall was the other side of it 'FISH AND CIHPS', and best of all was a sign containing "pian'os". (I have just received some junk mail coupons, and one is from the Golden Arches outfit. The coupons very clearly name the only branch that these are usable at, and also that they cannot be used at a restaurant that has a drive through. Guess what? I'm looking forward to this...

Effects of pornography article
Hi, SlimVirgin. I am wondering if you wouldn't mind helping with the Effects of pornography (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) article whenever you have time. After leaving this article two days ago, I immediately realized that we were focusing too much on what is WP:MEDRS-compliant, but that a lot regarding this topic has to do with social issues, which means that WP:MEDRS sources are not always required. The main reasons that I had not edited this article too heavily is because my brother had focused on the article as an IP, there was POV-pushing on both sides, and, since the research on the effects of pornography is mostly negative, it would make it seem like I was pushing my own personal POV when I was actually simply following what the sources state. I'm asking you for your help because I know how good you are with articles that pertain to women's issues (and the effects of pornography is partly a women's issue), and because you are just an all-around excellent editor. I don't think I've collaborated with you on anything (except for a past matter at the Vegetarianism article and agreeing with you on a other few matters). And working with you on this could be our first big collaboration. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 18:45, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
