Hi There

Your points on the NAR are valid, I'll leave them be. Hey, it's just my first day. And I hope this is the right way to leave a message. Woolhiser 00:14, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Anarchist42. I note your comments on JDW(?)'s talk page and take them very seriously. Thanks for the awfully good advice. May I ask where in Canada you are? I'm in Vancouver. Francesca Allan of MindFreedomBC 03:29, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It's good to hear from you (I have noticed your contributions in the past). I have a habit of trying to get bitter opponents to reach some sort of understanding (I guess I'm a diplomatic optimistic), however I have yet to see any effort by the psychiatric profession to even pretend to listen to the mentally ill, hence I view it as a challenge! I'm a resident of sunny Victoria, BC. -- Anarchist42 17:34, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I just moved from Victoria! I am in awe of your diplomatic optimism and wish you well bringing psychiatrists and mental patients to some kind of understanding. I'm sure you've heard this quip about psychiatry: it's the only business where the customer is always wrong. Keep up the good work! Francesca Allan of MindFreedomBC 20:16, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Diplomacy is the only option, since we can't sue them (I know, cause I tried). I tried sending (very polite) E-mails to many official websites, and none bothered to reply. -- Anarchist42 22:05, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I actually only discovered your comments interspersed in the discussion much later. Neither me nor Francesca responded to them specifically, so I hope you don't mind that I removed them. Please feel free to summarise your points I you'd like me to address them, but I think we've covered the stuff pretty well in our seperate discussion on bipolar disorder.

Bipolar disorder

Hey, I just got your message. Bipolar disorder belongs in the more appropriate category "Mood disorders." The category "Mental illness diagnosis by DSM and ISCDRHP" is not the place for a specific mood disorder when there is a sub category. --CDN99 18:00, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough (and thanks for the explanation). -- Anarchist42 22:05, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Canadian federal election, 2006

I have started a poll on using full party names or short forms on this template. Please vote at Talk:Canadian federal election, 2006. Thanks. Ground Zero | t 23:38, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikimedia Canada

Hi there! I'd like to invite you to explore Wikimedia Canada, and create a list of people interested in forming a local chapter for our nation. A local chapter will help promote and improve the organization, within our great nation. We'd also like to encourage everyone to suggest projects for our national chapter to participate in. Hope to see you there!--DarkEvil 17:11, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

War on Drugs article improvement

Hey there. Just letting you know that the War on Drugs article has been nominated for improvement. Perhaps you may want to add your supporting vote or a comment on the process. Thank you and take care. --Howrealisreal 18:16, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Anarchist42

I cannot resist the temptation to ask. Are you, 1), an anarchist, and 2) a fan of the Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy? Jobjörn 01:28, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RFAR on psychiatry

Hi Anarchist. I have read your November 2005 exchange with Francesca and JFW. I just wonder if you have seen the three pages (WP:RFAR Cesar Tort, Ombudsman et al.) about the Biological psychiatry article? —Cesar Tort 18:24, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have commented on Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_arbitration/Cesar_Tort_and_Ombudsman_vs_others. Please feel free to reply there or hear. I believe that you have been needlessly pulled into arbitration, although I make no comment on your actual opinion (yet! I shall if requested).

Hi again. I wonder if you have read the five RFAR pages, including the talk pages (besides Requests there are the Evidence and huge Workshop pages)? Also, I wrote a polemical article about the ongoing debate User talk:Cesar Tort/discussion. —Cesar Tort 21:33, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I read much of the RFAR pages (which IMHO is confusingly organized and verbose), but ignored the stuff about "Ombudsman" (I've previously noticed his POV edits, and he is already known as a problematic editor). Do you wish me to comment within User talk:Cesar Tort/discussion? (I believe that it is too long to just comment at the bottom). Anarchist42 22:21, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Of course you are welcomed to comment. BTW, what happened to Francesca? Do you know how to contact her? —Cesar Tort 22:40, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User:Francesca_Allan_of_MindFreedomBC last contributed on January 4 2006, then blanked her own talk page after saying good-bye to wikipedia here: Talk:Psychiatry&diff=prev&oldid=33861014. Anarchist42 22:55, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This also appears blanked... Do you know what she said? —Cesar Tort 23:37, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oops - it seems the wikipedia can't handle that link, try this: [1].

Your comments

Thanks for your astute comments in my user page. As I just explained there, I used old sources because another editor suggested in an RFAR page that the history of biopsych ought to be mentioned. —Cesar Tort 00:54, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

a hand

Hey Anarchist:

Could you give me a hand in Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/Cesar Tort and Ombudsman vs others/Evidence? Presently I am alone resisting heavy criticism from other editors! —Cesar Tort 18:35, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK, although you may not like all my comments. - Anarchist42 20:52, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
