Subpages

May I ask why you deleted subpages on the article page? The metadata had been created.

When I first came to CZ, I often did not do subpages. I am painfully going through dozens, hundreds of short articles to put them in. Even though some of the instructions for writing articles say they aren't needed, not having them breaks a number of functions. For example, we make the distinction between draft and approved articles, but the actual disclaimer does not appear on the page unless subpages are defined. Howard C.

Sorry about that. I originally put it on the page and then it created all this extra text on top, so I deleted it. I have restored it to the top. Thanks for creating the metadata.Neil Brick 19:52, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
No way you could have known how that stuff on top actually connects with all sorts of navigation features. I didn't understand it for months. Howard C. Berkowitz 19:58, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

Revisions

I've made a few edits without (I hope) changing the meaning or intent of the article. Please let me know (by email) what you think and we'll go from there.

Restoration

This article needs to be restored to the main space, along with its assorted subpages. I am trying to add it to the Sociology workgroup, but the redirects do not allow access to the Metadata page. The reason for adding it to sociology is that this is a mental health topic usually seen as the domain of the four mental health professions - social work, psychiatry, mental health nursing and psychology. Since there are no appropriate subgroups for three of these, I am associating it with social work, which is regarded at CZ as a subtopic of sociology. Ergo, it should be assigned to sociology AND psychology (and health professions if anyone there is interested.)...said Roger Lohmann (talk)

Looks like you've got it, let me know if something I'm not seeing isn;t working. D. Matt Innis 23:36, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
Roger, I then noticed that the article edit history wasn't with the article so I used the "move" button instead from Neil's sandbox so that all you edits show. I think editors can do this if you have the feature at the top of the page rather than copying and pasting. That way you get the history. If you have two articles that you ar emerging, make sure and let me know and there is a special way to do it so that the histories get merged, too. D. Matt Innis 23:53, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Forensic aspects of DID

I think this belongs in a bibliography subpage rather than the main article. The material simply identifies what the book covers, but does not really add content to the article. Howard C. Berkowitz 02:37, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
