Hello Stephen, Thank you for your comments on the Jesus article. I am an agnostic, but wholly support your position, eloquently expressed.Gareth Leng 07:10, 25 January 2007 (CST)

Thanks, Gareth. Seems like this article could be great training grounds for us CZ citizens. BTW, thanks for contributing to the article what you have thus far. I hope you stick around, and I'll be "seeing" you around. Stephen Ewen 19:09, 25 January 2007 (CST)

Ah, I see now you are I am "a member of the executive of Citizendium". Cool. What exactly does this mean your role is? Stephen Ewen 19:12, 25 January 2007 (CST)

Saipan

Sure, I would look forward to collaborating. Right now, though, I'm working on the Guadalcanal and Solomon Islands' campaigns and there are enough unfinished articles there to keep me busy with that area for awhile. Charles 00:23, 26 January 2007 (CST)

From Joshua

Stephen, How good to see you here! You should come by Thinking Baptists some time. We'd love to have you back in the discussions. Hope you're doing well! Ph.D. work is slowly sucking the life out of me, but I think I'm over the hump. Joshua Villines 15:29, 26 January 2007 (CST)

Are you a constable Stephen Ive forgotten

David Tribe 02:21, 16 February 2007 (CST)

No, but I think I would be a very good one and would be pleased to serve that way. Stephen Ewen 02:22, 16 February 2007 (CST)

I wanted to know if I can leave my keyboard sigh

My prayers have been granted !! David Tribe 23:16, 25 February 2007 (CST)

:-) Glad to help! Stephen Ewen 23:18, 25 February 2007 (CST)

Do you have some religious activity ? David Tribe

Well, I think it may be wise for the Project to have plenty of constables on hand for especially the public launching, just in case. And I would be more than happy to help lighten your load. I'd rather not nominate myself, however. As for the second question, that is complicated. I am a devoted Christian but certainly would not fit in with most people's stereotypes of what that means. If you click on the link to my thesis on my userpage and read the Preface, that will give you some idea of how I exhibit my values. Also, one can be informed about a person by some of the books they read. I have recently found this book (see some reviews) quite fascinating. Stephen Ewen 02:42, 16 February 2007 (CST)

I don't think we are ready for public release yet. Maybe that's just me though. -Tom Kelly (Talk) 03:03, 16 February 2007 (CST)

Yes, probably not. Yet see info about at Citizendium_Pilot:Notice_Board under "Slashdotted again". Stephen Ewen 03:11, 16 February 2007 (CST)

is now protected, it cannot be modified or deleted. I take it according to your protective wish? If you wish to be able to edit the document again ask a constable to remove the edit-lock Robert Tito | Talk 22:59, 18 February 2007 (CST)

Ok, thank you. Stephen Ewen 23:01, 18 February 2007 (CST)

Julius Axelrod

This is one of my articles that I polished on WP and look after. As I noted, not much changes now that he has died. ScottYoung 06:24, 19 February 2007 (CST)

not a problem

Hey, the way I see it, it is your job to tag as many as you could and my job to double check. That's just team work! You made my job easy, thanks. Matt Innis (Talk) 07:55, 20 February 2007 (CST)

Thanks for your message

Thanks, Stephen- I'm blushing! Nancy Sculerati MD 18:04, 20 February 2007 (CST)

re: Your undergrad anthro thesis

Thanks very much for the offer. I'll post an abstract on my talk page soon (as part of a badly needed reorganization there) and send along a draft of the full document once I get things a little more polished. -- Joe Quick | Talk

If you're still interested, a very rough copy of my thesis now resides here. I don't know that it will give you a very clear idea of my interests and/or strengths in the social sciences, however. My specialty falls more in line with the Rigoberta Menchu article that you listed on your user page. --Joe Quick | Talk 01:25, 28 February 2007 (CST)

Its late so I only skimmed at this point. It sounds you are exhibiting a bent toward Cultural Studies. :-) Stephen Ewen 02:30, 28 February 2007 (CST)

author suggestions big write

Stephen,

quite some topics you picked out. these are each HUGE and on some topics work is under way. Is it possible to narrow its scope somewhat (to not doing the same work twice) and prevent double work being done - as in what is needed by the workgroups and do these needs stay in line with what you had in mind. It seems a small effort on these huge omnipotent subjects. Cheers, nice thought tho to drop your ideas as well, and why shouldn't you. Robert Tito | Talk 07:37, 24 February 2007 (CST)

Constabulary

welcome, Steve. May the hat fit you :) Rob

Thanks, Rob. :-) Stephen Ewen

Anthropology

Thanks for taking the lead on Anthropology. I had you in mind as an exception when I posted my comment on the Big Write page, and I'm glad to see that my intuitions were correct. I still need to finish up a couple of things for the end of the term here (it's a pesky thing, school), but you can expect to see my work to start showing up soon... --Joe Quick | Talk

Advisements

What is this, the court of Louis XIV? I was annoyed, and I was making that clear, without being abusive. My experience as a journalist and subeditor was relevant to the point I was making. It is true that Wikipedia suffers from an excess of personal abuse, but let us not go to the opposite extreme. Robust debate is part of academic life, as I'm sure you know. Adam Carr 18:32, 27 February 2007 (CST)

NMI

Stephen, it just occurred to me that you might not have the thunderbird software that constables are using to process accounts. Did you get set up on that? If not, let me know and I can help you get started. -Matt Innis (Talk) 08:35, 28 February 2007 (CST)

I have used Moz T-Bird for...about 3 years. I lived and worked for two years recently in the Northern Mariana Islands, so I had a complete mental block about this "NMI". :-) Stephen Ewen 14:40, 28 February 2007 (CST)

you sure needed some more info then :) Robert Tito | Talk

Growth

I appreciate your thoughtful response. Jmerkey 02:06, 2 March 2007 (CST)

top

Hi, there are no more articles in "top" categories for workgroups, the last exception being logic which is protected. Could you unprotect it and change the category? I am about to delete "top articles" from workgroup table template (see Citizendium-l mailist for more details). Best, --Alex S. 01:03, 3 March 2007 (CST)

thanks, it was quick --Alex S. 01:11, 3 March 2007 (CST)

Account

Thanks for the thoughtful and kind email. Yes, please go ahead and move my account as you proposed. Let me know what the new password is, BTW. Thanks. Jmerkey 01:25, 3 March 2007 (CST)

Done. :-) Stephen Ewen 02:41, 3 March 2007 (CST)

Message from Bernie Haisch

Hi Stephen, Sorry I just now spotted your suggestion about Intelligent Design, but I need to leave that to someone with expertise in biology or a related field. I'm an astrophysicist.

Thanks for the bio!

Cheers Ben Louis Yates 22:27, 4 March 2007 (CST)

My pleasure. Let me know if I can ever assist you in any way. :-) Stephen Ewen 22:45, 4 March 2007 (CST)
