Hello, Shelly Pixie. Welcome to Wikipedia! I replied to you at Talk:Gender, as seen here and here. Since you are a newly registered Wikipedia editor, and appear to be unfamiliar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, I believe that you will benefit from clicking on some or all of the links below, which will help you familiarize yourself with aspects of Wikipedia that you are unfamiliar with or need to better familiarize yourself with. If you have any questions, you can ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Please remember to sign your name on talk pages by clicking or by typing four tildes "~~~~"; this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you are already excited about Wikipedia, you might want to consider being "adopted" by a more experienced editor or joining a WikiProject to collaborate with others in creating and improving articles of your interest.

Disclaimer in text

Hi! I noticed you put a disclaimer in the text of an article with this edit. That's not necessary, because Wikipedia has general and specific disclaimers linked in the footer of every page -- in this case, the applicable disclaimer is at Wikipedia:Content disclaimer. A disclaimer in text also breaks the encyclopedic tone of the article. —Darkwind (talk) 06:39, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Ah, great, thank you! That's really helpful to know. The disclaimer was inserted as there had been some discussion on the talk page about if that article could be used as a source for the nambla claims. This is why I put the disclaimer in, and also carefully worded to be an example of the type of criticism hakim bey received, rather than supporting evidence of the central claims (that he was supportive of nambla and pedaresty).

Feel free to edit however you think is best given what was said on the talk pages. :) Shelly Pixie (talk) 06:52, 3 December 2013 (UTC)
