Hi Mike, don't forget the article checklist here. Also, figure out which workgroups this article belongs in and others may join in! Matt Innis (Talk) 07:35, 8 June 2007 (CDT)

Note: "Effects of child sexual abuse" IS from Wikipedia

I feel it is important to note that the effects of sexual abuse is from Wikipedia. Although I tried to rewrite it entirely, there are some sentences or phrases left unchanged. The citations also remained intact. However, because a lot of the research cited is either controversial or experimental, maybe it can be replaced with more generally-accepted claims? Up to you guys, I just thought the section should be there regardless, so I imported it in.

Is it original

Is any of this from wikipedia? Do we need to check the button? Matt Innis (Talk) 08:09, 8 June 2007 (CDT)

toned down

I toned down the language in the first paragraph to be more inline with the family friendly policies. I am totally aware of all the implications here for accuracy and facing the realities of this atrocity, but I think we can present it without undo explicitness.

This article is not from Wikipedia!

Everything with the exception of "Effects of child sexual abuse" is not from wikipedia - it's from research done on Google, or information found on other sites. I went out of my way to completely write from scratch. I apologize for the lack of citations in other areas of the article, I'll try to add them soon. I also apologize for the explicit nature of the introduction paragraph...thx for fixing that. If you have any other problems, PLEASE let me know as I am still new here and don't all the rules/policies...though I think I've read them all. :) Mike Mayors 10:11, 8 June 2007 (CDT)

PS ... how do you sign your name with the "(Talk)" link? The four squiggilies (tildes) only links to my user page...

I think you are doing fine, you just started off with a bang and I have to get you pointed in the right direction quicker than most :) . If the one section is from wikipedia, we might still have to check the box, read the section on new practices from wikipedia. I have to run, but will be back in a minute to give you the (Talk) hint ;-) Matt Innis (Talk) 10:28, 8 June 2007 (CDT)
