Joseph Mercola

[edit]

Hi Psax. I'm assuming you didn't understand my edit summary, and you thought I wanted the NYTimes ref removed rather than emphasized. I've explained further on the article talk page: Talk:Joseph_Mercola#Mercola_to_delete_posts_after_48_hours. --Hipal (talk) 20:55, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Hipal. Yes, I did not understand. My aim was just to add info about his statement about deleting his articles with reference to this statement. Nothing more, nothing less. I am editor of Czech wikipedia and do my work there. I supposed that some native English speaking editor will do the other (better) work and will write about Mercola's prime position in Desinformation Dozen and his avoiding sanctions while still spreading desinformations. I am returning to editing in Czech so feel free to do whatever you want to do. Psax (talk) 21:45, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for alerting us to the NYTimes ref. I hope there will be more coverage on how he's continuing to spew misinformation while attempting to avoid sanctions from social media. --Hipal (talk) 02:11, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rejuvenate WikiProject Skepticism

[edit]

Hello - my name is Susan Gerbic (Sgerbic) and I'm writing to you because at some point you joined Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism. This might have been months ago - or even years ago. With the best of intentions the project was created years ago, and sadly like many WikiProjects has started to go dormant. A group of us are attempting to revitalize the Skepticism project, already we have begun to clean up the main page and I've just redone the participant page. No one is in charge of this project, it is member directed, which might have been the reason it almost went dormant. We are attempting to bring back conversations on the talk page and have two subprojects as well, in the hopes that it might spark involvement and a way of getting to know each other better. One was created several years ago but is very well organized and a lot of progress was made, Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Skeptical organisations in Europe. The other I created a couple weeks ago, it is very simple and has a silly name Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Skepticism Stub Sub-Project Project (SSSPP). This sub-project runs from March 1 to June 1, 2022. We are attempting to rewrite skepticism stubs and add them to this list. As you can see we have already made progress.

The reason I'm writing to you now is because we would love to have you come back to the project and become involved, either by working on one of the sub-projects, proposing your own (and managing it), or just hanging out on the talk page getting to know the other editors and maybe donate some of your wisdom to some of the conversations. As I said, no one is in charge, so if you have something in mind you would like to see done, please suggest it on the talk page and hopefully others will agree. Please add the project to your watchlist, update your personal user page showing you are a proud member of WikiProject Skepticism. And DIVE in, this is what the work list looks like [1] frightening at first glance, but we have already started chipping away at it.

The Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Participants page has gone though a giant change - you may want to update your information. And of course if this project no longer interests you, please remove your name from the participant list, we would hate to see you go, but completely understand.

Thank you for your time, I hope to edit with you in the future.Sgerbic (talk) 07:26, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
