Re: [Wikipedia-l] Pseudonyms, etc.

Seeing as how I'm a woman (or am I? I could have been lying, I suppose), you all may want to discount this entirely, but here goes -- Jaap (who may have taken on the name because he wants to be like a certain ex-Man Utd. Central defender) -- Here's a funny thing. You seem to want people to use their own names on the site, and resent KQ's using a pseudonym, while I, who have never used a pseudonym here and even, when asked, provided my credentials, have been: 1) accused of perhaps not being who I say I am and perhaps even of falsely stating my credentials, and; 2) told that, if I am upset that my name is connected with articles I don't find reflect my professional standards, I should perhaps use a pseudonym. It's a funny ol'world, ain't it? As for the rest, I'm not that interested in defending myself against silly statements. Make all you want: it only helps to add to the compendium of knowledge that helps us all consider our sources more wisely. Jules (a nickname reflecting my true given name of Julie)
