Edit summary

Hi there. I notice that you're making changes over at Creationism. So far I'm not sure that they represent improvements (I've reverted one already), but it would be very helpful if you could ensure you add an edit summary to explain what you've done to the article. Large changes to an article without any explanation for doing so, are likely to lead to their being reverted. Cheers, --Plumbago 10:28, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Recolonisation theory

Hi again. You might like to start an article on this first before editing it into the Creationism article. It's very far from clear that it's a notable movement, and your hard work is liable to be reverted unless you can demonstrate this. Having a main article on the theory would be a good start. Distinguishing it from other flavours of progressive creationism would be helpful too - looks just like another flavour to me. Cheers, --Plumbago 11:04, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Please read what I said above about making edit summaries whenever you edit. --Plumbago 11:05, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
