Please check out my response to your post on Talk:Sociology. I understand that it can be frustrating to have your text modified by others, but such is the nature of Wikipedia: it's meant to be a continuous collaborative effort. Looking back at your old contributions, I can tell you one reason they did not stick around: your page did not follow the encyclopedia format in layout or tone. Articles on Wikipedia should be primarily in narrative form. Bullet-point lists are usually discouraged. So are in-text external links. Also, introduction sections should be short narrative entries that summarize the whole article. No matter how good your contributions are, they will not stay on Wikipedia long if they do not read like wiki articles. That said, your contributions are always welcome, and I hope you do not stop contributing now because your old edits got reverted. However, you might want to try to stick closer to the standard wikipedia style, and perhaps try to work with the present layout of the sociology page before you get a better grasp on wiki page layouts. (P.S. I hope your references to a "Darwinian" perspective were not to me -- my username has nothing to do with that :)
