Sock

It appears that a sockpuppet has (deliberately) chosen a highly similar username. User:ChilllyMD (note the three L's) has been blocked for impersonating you, but it's easy to overlook the extra letter, and I hope that no one will confuse it with you.

Thank you for the message, I admit I had to look up what a sock puppet was (in wikipedia, at least)!

It's a cute name, isn't it?

Wikipedia is a fairly complex place with its own jargon and systems, but don't let it discourage you: you're doing fine, and you can always ask for help if you get stuck. WhatamIdoing (talk) 21:19, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Tag removal from Physician assistant

Hello. Is there a particular reason you removed the {{pp-vandalism}} tag from the Physician assistant article? Thank you, — Kralizec! (talk) 04:08, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Ooops, sorry. I was trying to remove an addition to the article by simply changing to a previous version and wasn't aware I could remove an admins tag while doing so. ChillyMD (talk) 14:37, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

homeopathy

Please go to Talk:Homeopathy to discuss this before adding it again to the article. Thanks. --JWSchmidt (talk) 22:39, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

hmmm...so you are saying there is some controversy that if you take water, add something to it, then dilute it back to pure water that its not the same as it started from? well...I guess some people do spend money on it...ChillyMD (talk) 22:52, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

"Dilution often continues until none of the original substance remains and the solution is identical to the original starting solution." <-- I think I understand what you were trying to say, but I do not think this is the best way to say it. Additionally, there is a continual problem of trying to put too much information in the introduction of the Homeopathy article. If you work on the talk page with other editors then other people can suggest better wording and also discuss where this issue should be mentioned in the article. --JWSchmidt (talk) 00:54, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Fair enough; I'm not sure I want to get that involved in that page though, I'm bound to get hate mail :-) ChillyMD (talk) 00:55, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

DR

Thanks for attempting to offer a compromise on the doctor (title) page. It looks like there is a clear agenda in "DoctorDW" trying to keep the US section deliberately vague. Fuzbaby (talk) 17:58, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Beware

Thanks for removing the nonsense about the "statute of limitations". This is the personal plaything of an opinionated editor named Mihai cartoaje (talk · contribs). I'm actually amazed that he re-added his content on 21 May[1] and nobody saw it necessary to remove it. There is a perpetual discussion on Talk:Medicine that will probably flare up now.

Ah, thanks for the information; I was just randomly reading through and saw that, and thought it was very out of place. ChillyMD (talk) 20:34, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
