Thanks Jokestress! Theinactivist (talk • contribs) 21:35, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for contributing an improved version in your recent edits in Gender Identity Disorder!

Also, if you're interested in reading the full text of the presentation and discussion of GID at the 2003 APA meeting described in Controversy Continues to Grow Over DSM’s GID Diagnosis, which you added as a source, I found a transcript at APA roundtable on gender variance and DSM-V... there's much more depth of detail and nuance presented (naturally, since it was a fairly lengthy symposium!)...

Thanks for your compliment and the resource. I will enjoy getting a more complete view of the medical aspects of this debate. Theinactivist (talk • contribs) 23:11, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

July 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Gender identity disorder, did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted (undone) by ClueBot NG.

• Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
• ClueBot NG produces very few false positives, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been detected as unconstructive, please read about it, report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
• The following is the log entry regarding this warning: Gender identity disorder was changed by Theinactivist (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.930233 on 2011-07-25T21:05:59+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot NG (talk) 21:06, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Note to any human beings who follow this: Theinactivist's edit was perhaps incorrect (?), and probably SHOULD have been detected by Cluebot NG, but it was in an attempt to revert a rather complicated cycle of vandalism in the article on Gender identity disorder, which Theinactivist successfully repaired here.

Thanks Bonze, I'm just going to delete this note in a few days if the people at ClueBot don't place an update for my report (that is appropriate, right?). Something I read on a Talk page gave me the impression that I could revert to a previous version by undoing multiple edits in a row. Still not sure if this is true, but I found a way around that.

You're welcome; it is possible to back out several bad/vandal edits by executing "undo" commands from the last to the first, but it's not exactly simple.  ??? The thing here is that Cluebot NG's flagging of your edit was kind of correct (from a perspective robotic ;-) I checked into the process for noting that Cluebot NG has incorrectly flagged an edit, but that's not what you want, so? Maybe it's best to leave the clueless thing's report here. thanks! -- bonze blayk (talk) 21:44, 25 July 2011 (UTC) -- And note: Cluebot NG really does nail a lot of vandalism, ergo, maybe best just let Rover here do hir thing ;-) -- bonze blayk (talk) 21:48, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
