[edit]

Welcome to the Wikipedia, FFeather! Hope you enjoy editing here and becoming a Wikipedian! Here are a few perfunctory tips to hasten your acculturation into the Wikipedia experience:

And some odds and ends: Boilerplate text, Brilliant prose, Cite your sources, Civility, Conflict resolution, How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Pages needing attention, Peer review, Policy Library, Utilities, Verifiability, Village pump, Wikiquette, and you can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes: ~~~~.

Best of luck, FFeather, and have fun! Ombudsman 16:39, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Chiropractic

[edit]

Welcome FFeather. Thank you for your edits to the chiropractic page. I have been putting in quite some effort to streamline the text and rid it of bias. However, there are a significant number of users trying to load the page with anti-chiropractic sentiment rather than present the basic facts of the profession. I found the majority of your edits to be fair and honest. However, with regards to deleting the skeptical links section, you may find that that edit will be reverted. Wikipedia tries to keep every article impartial, however when dealing with a subject as misunderstood as chiropractic, it is only fair to allow the skeptics to present their viewpoint via the external links section. Allowing the skeptics this, should in theory pacify them enough to keep their biased point-of-view comments out of the actual article. (When I first read the article a couple of monehts ago, it was loaded with terms such as "pseudoscience" and "quackery".) The goal of Wikipedia is to present articles with a neutral point of view. This can prove difficult with a hot topic such as Chiropractic. I have found it best to keep a cool head when discussing edits on the "discussion" page of the article. This is a great place to voice your reasoning behind adding, editing or deleting content.

Again, I appreciate your edits and hope that you - like me - keep an eye on the Chiropractic article and help maintain it NPOV (neutral point of view) status. You seem to be very adept in your writing and knowledge of the subject. Your efforts are certainly most appreciated! Levine2112 19:40, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
