Hello, I noticed you deleted all the information i put down on the Grameen Foundation because they were primary resources. I am fairly new at editing and I am doing this for a class project for my University. I would very much appreciate any help or advice you could give me regarding my edits as well as allow me to make edits. Jvele (talk) 04:31, 3 May 2011 (UTC) jvele

Proposed deletion of Canadian Solar
The article Canadian Solar has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- This article is little more than commercial advertising for a manufacturing company. The only cited sources are primary sources.
While all contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Dolphin (t) 05:23, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Proposal
I replied to your comment and made a proposal. I'm a volunteer like everyone else. So please respect my time and let's get straight down to the work at hand, ok? QuackGuru (talk) 22:38, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
You claimed "You can see the full text on the authors' web site. (This paper was not published in the intended issue (11/2010) of the BJP but exists as a preprint. There is no explanation for its exclusion from the intended issue and there are no published plans to include it in a future issue.) Jojalozzo 02:27, 22 June 2011 (UTC)"
- Where is your evidence the source was withrawn or never published. QuackGuru (talk) 00:43, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
- Not responding on my talk page. Bring this up in context. Jojalozzo 01:20, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
- You claimed "there are no published plans to include it in a future issue." How did you come to that conclusion. QuackGuru (talk) 01:26, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
- I asked you to stop this less than an hour ago as I have done other times you have left messages for me about the Matute paper. Continuing to post here is further evidence of your difficulty hearing what others say. I will seek administrative assistance if you post anything further about the Matutue paper on this page.

Pseudoscience, Matute
Hey, I put this together with OrangeMarlin. The talk page is a bit hectic so I thought I'd try and get your feedback on it before proposing there. Let me know what you think:
- Pseudoscience and a lack of scientific literacy are a concern among scientists, teachers, and other professionals. While pseudoscience in the paranormal realm regarding superstitions like astrology are typically physically harmless, pseudoscience in medicine (quackery), law-enforcement (psychic detectives), and psychiatry (unproven techniques) can lead individuals to pursue harmful treatments and avoid helpful ones, in addition to expending time and money in the process.

- Restricting Matute et al. to pseudo-medicine is certainly an improvement. However, aren't there sources that actually document the public health risks of quackery and provide citations to back them up? I don't see any reason to include Matute et al. except as backup to real solid, informative sources and even then it really not that good for that use. It's a great source for a section on why we are susceptible to pseudoscience (and I'd be willing to work on such a section - wish I'd thought of that 6 months ago) but it's just not about the negative effects of quackery and I don't see a good Wikipedian reason to use it here.
- Are there sources to allow us to include the impacts of pseudoscience in investment fraud?
