Use of article talk pages[edit]

Hi - sorry about this, but I've reverted your talk page comments. New users often think that an article talk page is there to discuss the subject of the article, even at times where they can contact someone if the article is about a living person. Take a look at WP:NOTFORUM and Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines. While I'm here, a bit more. Wikipedia is a mainstream encyclopedia. It's articles are meant to represent what sources meeting our criteria at WP:RS and WP:VERIFY say about a subject. You can't build up an argument using sources that don't discuss the subject the way an academic might do in a peer reviewed article. See no original research - these are all things I struggled with when I was new. You might want to read Solutrean hypothesis. And having siad all that and reread your comments, you might want to read WP:FRINGE. Doug Weller talk 14:58, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

January 2019[edit]

Please refrain from using talk pages such as Talk:Chemtrail conspiracy theory for general discussion of the topic or other unrelated topics. They are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways, based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines; they are not for use as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See here for more information. Thank you.
