re: Cognitive Science
[edit]Hi Andy,
I love your Dov Gabbay quote from your website. So true, so true....
Anyway, I think your first sentence changes on Cognitive Science strike a perfect balance between all the competing requirements. I know exactly why you put, "usually defined as" and feel that temptation myself. It conveys the lack of community consensus (and often complete confusion) regarding this definition. I recommend however that we leave it out for now.
My rationale is as follows, all definitions have academic disagreement on some level (so we could put this clause in all of our articles, in theory) + all definitions go through constant lexicographical evolution and so just because you and I (and the rest of the cognitive science readers/writers) will have a better definition in our heads in twenty years, does not mean that we have to avow our current uncertainty, in the first few words of the article. Advanced users who dispute the definition can click the discussion tab and see all of our honest work done trying to wrestle with these words.
I very open to debating this point. I wish there was a way to convey the multiple definitions in the first sentence, but given our format here I feel it is best to just remove these three harmless words for the sake of brevity.
Feel free to reverse this change and or contact me. CHEERS! -- Contributions/Skychildandsonofthesun SKYchild 18:30, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
- I'm fine with that :-) I'm collecting sources to see if I can find a better definition, but not holding my breath... --Andy Fugard (talk) 01:04, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
- Amazing how when you actually micro-analyze the precise wording of the standard definitions of cognitive in the academic literature, you can see how difficult and complex it is to define in a clear, simple and non-partisan way. -- Contributions/Skychildandsonofthesun SKYchild 23:15, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
Your explanation for your edit was very insightful (it gave me an aha! moment), but I think your edit went too far by entirely removing any mention of computers. It may be that "cognition" in computers is only studied as a model, but there must be other ways in which cognitive scientists do focus their attention solely on computers?
Just food for thought. I don't know enough to make the edit myself. Andrew Gradman talk/WP:Hornbook 06:19, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the message! Still thinking about it myself... --Andy Fugard (talk) 14:13, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
- Just in case you like happy orange bars when you refresh... I left a long reply on the Talk:Cognitive_science page. Cheers Edhubbard (talk) 14:47, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
- HAHA :-) Cool, thanks for the ping - shall have a look!

Hello, Andy Fugard, and thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia!
I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you worked on, Maurice Clint, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:
- edit the page
- remove the text that looks like this:
{{proposed deletion/dated...}} - save the page
It helps to explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the Help Desk. Thanks again for contributing! Kinu t/c 21:15, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Cathie Marsh
[edit]Hello Andy Fugard,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Cathie Marsh for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Robvanvee 15:49, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

3 A.M.
[edit]
Thank you for your edit to the disambiguation page 3 A.M.. However, please note that disambiguation pages are not articles; rather, they are meant to help readers find a specific article quickly and easily. From the disambiguation dos and don'ts, you should:
- Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
- Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
- Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry
- Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
- Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
- Do not insert external links or references
Thank you.
Since 3 A.M. is a navigation guide for articles that might be confused with the title 3 A.M., and one of the articles that you added make any mention of 3 A.M., I have removed them. Leschnei (talk) 00:23, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

Hallo, I am not writing in Wikipedia normally. I am not used to the rules. I read the "Criticism"-part in the article about Fritz Perls and I have objections to the way Masson's criticism is presented. I think the general claim "Perls was sexist, as well as physically and emotionally abusive towards women in his private life" cannot be sustained, simply being based on one quotation from Perls' autobiography. Apart from the fact that it excludes the overwhelming rest of his life, it is also taken out of the context in which it appears in the book in a distorting way.
In the book Perls reports an incident where he was called into a psychotherapy group because a woman attacked all the other participants physically, the incoming Perls included. They had a fight, and Perls got her on the ground. It is then that the words in Masson's quotation appear.
It is true that Perls also writes the following sentences: "she was asking for, and there are thousands of women like her in the States. Provoking and tantalizing, bitching, irritating their husbands and never getting their spanking." However I can't see that this one quotation under special circumstances justifies a general labelling of Perls as "sexist, as well as physically and emotionally abusive towards women in his private life." - including "his private life" without evidence. Greetings

Ways to improve UK Evaluation Society
[edit]Hello, Andi Fugard,
Thank you for creating UK Evaluation Society.
I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:
Hi Andi. I would have concerns about the notability of the organisation. Is there additional significant coverage of UKES that could be included/referenced?
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Bastun}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.
