[edit] category:articles that might not further the RW mission
Already exists.

- We'll be here all day if you want to tag things with that. We have
{{mission}}for that.
narchist 19:28, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- Even better. Thanks, Armondikov. (I'm only doing to others what was done to me). :-D Civic Cat (talk) 19:33, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Mission
Hey, just so you know, we have a {{mission}} template that also auto-cats articles with the already made category:articles that might not further the RW mission. ThunderkatzHo! 19:28, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
Thanks Blue van Meer and Thunderkatz. I'll use it for now. :-)Civic Cat (talk) 19:30, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- Cool :) Also, I'd just like to point this out before you go too crazy with it: From out Community Standards page: "RationalWiki is not a general encyclopedia; it does not require articles on every known subject. However, the wiki's mainspace welcomes many articles that do not relate to the primary missions of RationalWiki providing that they are factually accurate and of interest to the community at large. These include articles on general science, historical events and important individuals throughout the world." Course, that's pretty vague and open to debate, but it's still something to keep in mind. ThunderkatzHo! 19:34, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- All I know is that my articles tend to get huffed, and I figure I'd tag a few I consider less worthy, and your category with its "might not" leave further wiggle room. (At least I'm not huffing the articles I tage.)Civic Cat (talk) 19:37, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- A lot of these may well have been discussed before. Indeed, as you seem to be categorising a few general science articles, we've already had the discussion about whether to include such articles. Generally we keep them because they're interesting rather than their direct application to the mission. I.e., we can't really have a quantum woo article without a quantum physics article, for instance.
narchist 19:38, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- And the RW lexicon is "vaped" not "huffed."
Liquid Blue 19:40, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- Hmmmm. I'll give it some though.Civic Cat (talk) 19:40, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- (ECx100,000)Also worth noting that
{{mission}}will automatically include that category and it won't appear as it is a maintenance category. It will still appear on category:articles that might not further the RW mission, however, which should be linked to from the template.

- Can you at least minor edit? You can make edits minor by default under Preferences -> Editing. ThunderkatzHo! 18:29, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
- Where's the article that would describe how I can do this?Civic Cat (talk) 18:32, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
- The top of your page should have your name and links to things like your talkpage, your watchlist, and your contributions. Click the link that says "My preferences", then click the tab that says "Editing." Check the box that says "Mark all edits minor by default" and then click the save button at the bottom. ThunderkatzHo! 18:35, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. I'll keep it in mind. But what if I want to be specific about my edits?Civic Cat (talk) 18:38, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
- All it means is that the box marked "This is a minor edit" starts out checked, so if you're doing a bunch of minor edits, you don't have to check the box every time. If you have a non-minor edit in between, you can uncheck the box. Once you're done with your editing spree, you can go into preferences, and change it back so the box starts unchecked.

[edit] Yippie! I got blocked! The fascists have won again at RationalWiki!
I'll be back, perhaps in a few days, to kill off more of my creations; and then I'll leave this site. Civic Cat Talk to Civic Cat 20:24, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

First off.
Sorry about getting angry a few months ago. Not very civil of me, huh. I’m wasn’t totally wrong in the disputes, but I’ll attempt to deal with the errors, or what I perceive to be errors, of others with reason and humour.
Second, I didn’t LANCB as I never quite said “I’m leaving and never coming back”: there is at least some wiggle room.
Third, my gratitude’s for the good other RW’ians have done for me, including tolerating errors and whatever (unwarranted) stubbornness on my part. I specifically name Ace and Weaseloid, who were the first to greet me; and of course Ace for the sysopery. Thanks to P-Foster for some tips. Even Ty’s okay. As for the article about me in RWW, I’ll comment on its (many) errors (maybe in a month or few).
I’ll soon restore the sub-page article I’ve spent the most time on here (in terms of editing at least). I’ll overhaul it later (likely replacing a few dead links and re-sectioning). On the deletionist-inclusionist debate, I tend towards the latter. I’ll check out the sub-pages of others to see how appropriate or inappropriate it is.

[edit] albinism
I noticed you created an article on albinism. As someone with the condition, I am curious as to what prompted you to create it? AMassiveGay (talk) 22:43, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
- I heard the radio program a week or so ago, I like Edgar and Yellowman, am beginning to like Johnny, I saw the Omega Man, I think the whole discrimination of those whiter than us is interesting, I think Connie Chiu is sexy, as well as the chick 14 sec and 1:56 to 2:08 into in this music video is sexy (actually they all are). :-D Civic Cat Talk to Civic Cat 21:52, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
