Careful
[edit]Although your recent edit to the Miller article did indeed improve it, I must ask that you refrain from using abusive language in your edit summaries. DS (talk) 04:28, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
Hi. Please note that Wikipedia requires reliable sources for any information about living persons. LinkedIn and other social networking sites are not considered reliable sources and may not be used to source such information. I refer to your recent edit to Access Co. Thanks!

On maintaining the utility of the label "science fiction"
[edit]Thank you for this - it is a pet peeve of mine that media is so often labeled "science fiction" simply because the magic comes from a shiny metal box instead of an incantation. Of course, on this site we need to bow to how other people describe the film, but that does not make the misuse of terminology any less silly. I have not seen that film yet - no spoilers, please. - 2/0 (cont.) 05:01, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
