List of food faddists

The same user who has tried to remove criticisms from David Gorski of Michael Klaper in the past, is removing the Gorski source again. I believe he is mistaken here because Gorski is a reliable source. I have reverted for now but you might be interested in the list of food faddists article.

Got Photos?

Hi Susan, I'm still sad about the move to Facebook, however I did notice this when randomly browsing: Rebecca Watson has only two photos that are both going on a decade old now. I was hoping you may have gotten more recent pictures. Jerod Lycett (talk) 05:50, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

Nope I don't think she has been seen in the skeptic community for years and I don't expect her to be back anytime soon. Because of FB we have been flourishing. Sgerbic (talk) 16:14, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (October 27)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Liance was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Interviews are not independent of the subject.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Help add book

Hi, I want to add Daniel Webster Hering's skeptical book Foibles and Fallacies of Science (1924) to the List of books about skepticism. Unfortunately it is too complicated the template for me to add the book. Can you help add the book if possible? 81.147.137.6 (talk) 20:49, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
