Your message[edit]

Thanks for your message. Please review WP:NOR and WP:NPA. Thank you.←Humus sapiens ^ну? 20:31, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for being reasonable. If you provide verifiable reputable sources, I don't think there'd be any problems. Cheers. ←Humus sapiens ^ну? 03:56, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your additions to I Ching[edit]

Your additions to the I Ching article are very interesting. I have a few comments: I wasn't sure what you meant when you made the following reference: "(materials bk2 Wilhelm)." I assume you mean "Wilhelm, 1967, bk 2" which is listed in the "References" section, so I made that change. Also, please note, one does not sign contributions to articles in the body of the text (they are listed under "history" in the tab at the top of the page). The signature is used for talk page (discussion) entries, only. You should add citations for your additions (from published outside sources). I note that you are about to publish something. That can be quoted as a citation, when published, but in the meantime, we have to be careful not to add original research to articles, so please stick to published material. I hope you continue to contribute to Wikipedia. Sunray 18:23, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for clarifying that reference to the Wilhelm I Ching. I've re-read the section in which you have added to the I Ching article and it looks fine. However, the article on the Lo Shu Square needs some work — I've moved two paragraphs to the talk page and left a note with my concerns. Sunray 15:51, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Karen: I saw your note about withdrawing those two paragraphs. I was wondering if you would agree to starting a new article based on them. My comments were with respect to their inclusion in the I Ching article. However, we could start a new article titled Ho Tu or Ho Tu Map (or another title that you might suggest) and include that content. It would not be too detailed for a new article, and it would pertain to the exact subject matter you have written about. We could do a brief summary in the I Ching article and a link to the new article. We would also interlink with the Lo Shu Square article. What do you think? Sunray 22:21, 8 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your comments Sunray, Karen was in no fit state to post this work, she meant well and would have liked to have made a better job of it. The maths in the I Ching and the River Maps she described in the articles has now been published as 'The Sum of Things' by Paul Martyn-Smith, Morrigan Books. The Book contains a dedication to Karen who helped with the compilation of the work, but who sadly died of bowel cancer July 21st 2006 aged 49.
