[edit] Thanks.
Thanks for creating Modern Gnosticism to give Ndru01 a place to put his text. It was an expeditious solution. Alienus 03:23, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Removal of merger notice
Usually the merger notice is used to notify editors that a similar article exitst that they may not know about. It happens often that someone creates an article oin wikipedia not knowing that another similar article with a different title already exist. If that new article is very good so that you don't want to just delete it, then it is useful to notify editors of both article about the other article. But almost all the editors of the special relaivity article know about the existence of the intro article and vice versa, so this issue could be raised on the talk page.
However, in the case of the intro to relativity article, the fact that it has become a bit similar to the main relativity article is actually not a desirable thing at all. The purpose of that article was to have an article that is more accessible to lay people. I think that editors there have complained about this. The merger notice was perhaps sort of an independent confirmation that there indeed exists a problem. :) Count Iblis 13:28, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
