The article on WP caused a whole lot of controversy, the authors for this article on CZ needs to be careful. Now WP has an unwritten rule to block any users who self-identify as pedophile, I don't think CZ need that rule, but we need to write neutrally. [[User:Yi Zhe Wu|Yi Zhe Wu]] 09:24, 10 June 2007 (CDT)

This is ny nature a contentious subject and our goal has nothing to do with a head to head rivalry with Wikipedia. It can be destructive to the wiki to fcus on contentious and inflammatory subjects - like child sexual abuse and pedophilia. I am willing to do that because I am expert enough to guid us in making an informative article. No one hefre is expert enough to make the most controversila and inflammatry aspects of this tpic the centerpiece of this article, and I have overstepped my bounds here to avoid that. Please,   let us consider what is important about this topic in an educational manner. Unbless you personally have the expertise to guide this article through the most fringe and inflammatory aspects of the subject, put up a guide post or plan that that's the courser the article should take.

Yep, I completely agree. I think as long as we focus on the paraphilia itself, and not the actions associated with it (i.e. child sexual abuse), we shouldn't have much of a problem. If anyone can find credible research, please feel free to post it below. [[User:Mike Mayors|Mike Mayors]] [[User talk:Mike Mayors|(Talk)]] 09:32, 10 June 2007 (CDT)
