thread_title:  Thanks for the work 

message: Ok dude, if you think IKDGB did more harm than good, and you agree that the secular world is sending the wrong messages to our youngsters, what are you going to do about it? I think Harris did good by trying to come up with a set of transparent rules that anyone could follow. Leaving such an important topic as looking for "your other half" unregulated or to the individual discretion is no good either. There needs to be a clear roadmap for youngsters to follow, and courtship is that roadmap. "Getting to know" the opposite sex as you say can be (mis)interpreted in many different ways. It's better to have a procedural way of attaining such an objective than to leave it entirely to young people to find out about it.

I have created a page detailing Carolyn and her ministry. Since she is involved with this ministry, I would greatly appreciate any reviews or critiques of her page ("Carolyn Mahaney"). This is my first time contributing to Wikipedia and I would love any feedback you could provide! Thanks!!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sbittner (talk • contribs) 18:25, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

text: I took away part of my comment because I decided it was not very civil. Sorry about that. I am becoming somewhat aggravated for various reasons, and it is starting to show. Anyway I have a question for you. Is the motivation for your editing to benefit Wikipedia or to promote your opinion? I am asking this because I noticed that you have only edited SGM related articles, and that seems a little strange. --Mark (Mschel) 18:29, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

text: Yes, I am very frustrated with this situation. This is because I am having to deal with meat-puppets, and it is hard to prove for sure when someone is a meat. I have trouble believing their is nothing else you can contribute to. Even I who can't write a decent paper to save my life have found many areas where I could easily help out. You don't need to be an expert for most things. For instance, you could write a politicians biography even if you know next to nothing about politics. As for good balance, you as someone who has an extremely strong POV on this issue might not be the best judge. I am not going to reply to the last part of your comment as Wikipedia is really not the place for it. You can say what you want on the myriad of blogs and forums you use to spread your position, but you can't in Wikipedia articles. By the way, I am going to avoid editing the actual articles from now on, as I also do have my fair share of POV on the issue. --Mark (Mschel) 21:56, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  What do you propose then? 

message: "As a teenager, Harris published New Attitude, a magazine aimed at fellow home-schoolers, from 1994 to 1997."
It also says he was born in 1974. Wouldn't he be 20 in 1994 in that case? I mean, do the math here...--69.234.189.115 (talk) 19:35, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I suspect poetic license...he would have been 19 until the end of the year, so he started publishing it at 19.  But that is trivia and not needed, I dropped the phrase.sinneed (talk) 16:28, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Contradiction? 

message: I know I've asked this about Vanessa Hudgens, the Jonas Brothers, etc, but do you think that he should be put on the list of Eurasians?
The article doesn't say the ethnicity, but Sono sounds Japanese and the appearance of him and his kids is pretty Eurasian. --69.234.189.115 (talk) 19:42, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Heritage 

message: I just found out I was wrong about his sons middle name being Eugene, sorry. But I also happened to find out for sure that Mr. Harris' middle name is Eugene. So sorry for the misleading edit summery. --Mark (Mschel) 22:51, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Middle name 

message: The article lists his nationality as Japan. He is not from Japan; he was born in and still lives in the United States. Whoever put that there was probably thinking about his half-Japanese ancestry, but that doesn't qualify him as having Japanese nationality. 24.41.36.12 (talk) 06:13, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
