Thank you for your superb contributions to Sumerian subjects, such as your thoughtful rewrite of the Enheduanna article. Looking forward to more of your contributions!! पाटलिपुत्र Pat (talk) 09:27, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much @पाटलिपुत्र:! I'm glad you liked it! - car chasm (talk) 07:43, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I present you with a barnstar for your great work recently in philosophy articles, for your diligence in putting to a halt rampant hagiography, and for your calm in the face of editorial ignorance. I'm impressed. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ) 14:23, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm particularly delighted to have another editor onboard who recognizes the fringe nature of scientism. This is especially important in a project where a majority of the regulars at the Fringe Theory Noticeboard themselves often take positions (mis)informed by scientism. The combination of ignorance and self-righteousness in editors who nevertheless are acting on good-faith motives can be extremely difficult to deal with, but don't let it drag you down! ☿ Apaugasma (talk ) 14:23, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I appreciate it! I'm also quite happy to learn I'm not alone here on the anti-scientism front even if we're a minority viewpoint here. :) - car chasm (talk) 16:57, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

[edit]

Just wanted to thank you for having responded to my request for help on Argument from authority. I'm not quite a newbie editor, but still very much in the early learning stage, and it hadn't occurred to me that there was a significantly better version of the page from years earlier that could be reverted to. Sockpuppet investigations are also new to me. FactOrOpinion (talk) 23:22, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Happy to help :). And don't worry about missing the old version of the article, I missed it too until I found the old conversation on that noticeboard. I don't usually see things like that, I think that pretty much only happens when you have a long-term dedicated vandal like in this case. Really not sure what that sock's game is, linking to the same noticeboard they got nabbed for twice and making the same arguments seems like... a bad move to me. - car chasm (talk) 02:40, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Farewell, I suppose

[edit]

I saw you in the revision history of an article, noticed you hadn't edited in a while, and saw the note on your userpage. So it goes. It was nice to have you around. I wish you well on your travels. jp×g🗯️ 08:12, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wishing you well

[edit]

I've only recently joined, and never got the chance to interact with you, but it's been nice seeing your past edits as I come across them! TlonicChronic (talk) 00:43, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I decided to come back after all... I'll point my old user page to the new one once I reach autoconfirmed status(?) and can edit other users pages. Psychastes (talk) 02:55, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome back!

[edit]

Just saw a new user diligently adding categories to philosophy articles, and I thought to myself 'would this be ...'? And yes, it's you! So glad to see you back here! Don't let the massive amounts of wp:cheese on here bog you down this time!

Kind regards, ☿ Apaugasma (talk ) 15:40, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! It's good to be back :) Psychastes (talk) 16:29, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

I feel much better now that you're putting in the much-needed work with the articles on classical philosophy on my watchlist, which were waiting for me to develop the requisite acuity and familiarity to properly clean them up. Welcome back. Remsense ‥  05:06, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
oh gosh, thank you! I've been enjoying my time back so far, happy to help :D Psychastes (talk) 06:14, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProjects

[edit]

If you're here because I marked your wikiproject inactive after a year of no talk page activity other than routine/automated notification, and you feel that was in error, please see here for the relevant discussion. While I will not contest you either way if you decide to revert my edit, in order to understand your rationale for disagreement, I am very interested in your answer to the following question asked on that page: are you working together with other people? Or working solo on articles that happen to fall into the scope of the group? Could you name three other editors that you actually work with? And where is your group coordinating its work, since it's not on the group's talk page? Psychastes (talk) 23:36, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
