Jamie, I have been creating my homeschool site since 1993 or so. It is the ONLY inclusive and comprehensive homeschool site on the internet. There are over 1300 pages of free information for homeschoolers all over the world. When my husband lost his job, I had to start having advertisers. Frankly, the ads helped my visitors find the materials they needed to home educate. Please leave the link to A to Z Home's Cool up! It has been a critical site for new and old homeschoolers for over a decade. How old is your homeschool website? The purpose of the wikipedia is to have complete information. What you have is a "postcard" about homeschooling. I have a full encyclopedia! Please, too, give inclusive homeschoolers a voice! Excluding us, and featuring only the extreme right wing of the Christian homeschool group - representing only about 10% of homeschoolers - is very unfair to 90% of homeschoolers.

- There are no Wikipedia links to any websites I am affiliated with. I removed the link per WP:SPAM and WP:EL rules, and in your case, conflict of interest. If there are other links on the Homeschooling article that you believe violate any of those policies, feel free to remove them. OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:34, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
HSLDA and its affiliates are an extreme right wing organization, promoting extermination of Jews and others that don't agree with their so-called "Christian" world view. You have NO links to inclusive homeschool resources that represent the bulk of the homeschool community. At least have one, mine, that will lead to the others. I'll remove the Reconstructionist links, as their neo-Nazi stance is obnoxious to many. If you don't know about this, why are you controlling the Homeschooling Wiki, if you don't mind me asking? Ann Zeise.
- I don't control any articles (see WP:OWN). I do remove links that violate WP:EL and WP:SPAM. If you believe that the current homeschooling article is not balanced, post a suggestion on the talk page for that article. OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:38, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
I have made edits on the page, not linking to my site, to point out the research you have by NHERI, Barna, and others are from right wing, reconstructionist organizations with an agenda to skew data to suit their own purposes. No researcher in their right mind would use them as reliable resources. Why you link to HSLDA and NHERI, Barna and Fraser, when there are reliable, inclusive resources tells me you are on their side. Sad the Wikipedia is taking this stance. Do they even know you are doing this? Ann Zeise
- Please see the note on the talk page for Homeschooling. Also be aware of the 3-revert rule. OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:45, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
OK. I now understand that you are on the side of the reconstructionists. I will write a feature article about your bias on my site and make sure everyone knows about it. Shame on you! Ann Zeise
- I have nothing to do with homeschooling, so I'm sure that will be an interesting feature article. OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:50, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
That's pretty obvious! I suspected as much, as I know and am close friends with most of the online homeschool leadership. So why don't you allow those who have been involved in the homeschool movement for well over a decade to correct all the errors you have included? The article is up. [1] I hope your boss sees it. Google swings through my site every day, so it should be appearing there in a day or two. Ann Zeise
- Your article is quite comical, given the fact that I haven't written a single word of the Homeschooling article. Anyone reading the article and looking at the article's history will see that the only thing I've ever done with it is revert spam links. In regarding "my boss," what boss are you talking about? I don't have a boss here (unless you count Jimbo Wales, who founded Wikipedia). I don't think you understand how things work here. You can continue to make up things on your site, since anyone who comes here can read these discussion logs. OhNoitsJamie Talk 22:31, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
