== Adding a review ==

I'm about to type in a review of Show Me! In the journal Family Counselor, off of JStor.  Before putting in that effort, I wanted to be sure you had no problem with it. [[User:Wanker|Wanker]] ([[User talk:Wanker|talk]]) 16:39, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
:So long as it is not a copyright violation and appropriately referenced, it shouldn't be a problem. You can add excerpts etc... --[[User:Etenne|Etenne]] ([[User talk:Etenne|talk]]) 18:21, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

It is a copyright violation. Including the Show Me! preface is one. I suspect I could easily find more. I'm pretty knowledgable about copyright and my recommendation is to just ignore it, especially since you have no commercial purpose. The worst that could happen is someone sends a letter asking that something be taken down. They aren't going to use their lawyers' time with a nonprofit individual user with no money who's not selling anything. It's not worth it to them.

== Relevance of CPS-related issues to boylove ==

Hey Etenne,

The anti-CPS movement doesn't have a wiki yet. To what extent, if any, would you consider [http://wiki.mises.org/wiki/Miscellany:Transcript_of_CPS_Whistleblower_Carlos_Morales_at_Liberty_Fest_NC this type of content] relevant to boylove? (Currently it's hosted at Mises Wiki, which will eventually go defunct because the Mises Institute's unspoken policy is to neither maintain nor destroy the wiki, and it's gradually rotting as the code becomes more and more outdated and begins to malfunction, an example being the InstantCommons which no longer works after Wikimedia's shift from http to https.)

The way I look at it, CPS is going to have a chilling effect on free speech as they take away the kids of anyone who is too outspokenly opposed to the age of consent, or who admits to having pedophilic desires. An example would be [http://nathania.org/w/images/c/c1/Piper_Morgan_Sparrow_Faye_amended_petition.pdf this petition] stating, "It has been reported that Father has pedophilic desires. . . . It is alleged that Father has posted numerous online material expounding justifications for sexual relations between adults and children, placing the welfare of the subject Child at risk. . . . Father admits his pedophilic desires".

The site asks, "Please ask yourself before hitting the save button Does this have a cultural or historical relevance to boylove?" Culture consists of values and norms, so could potentially extend into the political and legal realms. [[User:Lysander|Lysander]] ([[User talk:Lysander|talk]]) 17:43, 20 September 2015 (UTC)

== Hi. I'm alive, and, well... ==

I've been very very busy preparing materials for uploading. Of course, having lost my Internet connection several months ago did put a small crimp in my uploading style. Now dozens of books are in the pipeline, most simply waiting for final proofreading...

Well, I'm "Internetized" again, as of about two hours ago. But I'm still too busy to contribute much here... sorry about that...

Anyway, I'm just saying "hello". I hope you're OK. You may have been wondering if I was still alive...

BTW-- I don't remember much of the Wiki coding that I had learned, so expect errors for awhile in anything I do contribute...

Cheers! À bientôt

== Problems with User4 ==

I have been working on the article on Browser security, which I think I know something about both technically and socially. (I went through having my computer seized and searched.) He comes in and puts in things that are just wrong, such as "TOR is secure". We're having a low key edit war and I'm pretty frustrated about it.

I need to know if archive.org ''actually caches'' .PDF files, or if it simply ''links'' to the website. If they ''actually cache'' the .PDF files, then those files will be permanently available, even if that keepandshare account is closed. If the .PDF files are ''not'' cached, then--if the account is closed--the files will be lost. 

If you click the following link, my question will be answered. Thanks! (You don't have to actually save the file when given the choice--just click on the link, then close the "save as" popup, and then close the browser window.)

== User4 ==

Can't you just block him for a month or something? He's not that bad of a guy. [[User:Lysander|Lysander]] ([[User talk:Lysander|talk]]) 00:15, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
:Yes, I wish that were possible however he refuses to take direction, he does things that I ask him not to do. Right now, I can't be around to monitor BoyWiki as often, as it is my busy time of year (which was the major factor in my decision). I simple can't trust him to be responsible. If he would stick to writing about books and other things of interest, I would not have a problem (so long as he did so within the copyright laws) but he has made it very clear to me that he will not do that and he doesn't care what I think and is going to do what he pleases... and that being the case, he is now more of a liability then an asset. The bottom line is that he can think that I am wrong all he likes, he can think I am an asshole, but he needs to understand that I am the person in charge and when I say don't do it then don't do it! I have always thought that User4 had a good deal to offer BoyWiki (and still do)  but if he can't work within the structure, it is pointless to continue. I am done arguing, I am done fighting. I simple don't have the time or energy to do it. I have never thought user4 was "that bad of a guy" but BoyWiki is highly structured (i.e. it is not a message board) and the type of writing that is required is also structured (formula writing) and is not something that is in everyone's wheelhouse. Sometimes you have to work inside the proverbial box and user4 has proven to me that he is either unwilling or unable to do that. However, I will think about it and maybe when I am feeling less pressed and overwhelmed, my heart will be less hardened on this subject.  --[[Etenne]]  [[File:BLSmileyface.png|50 px|link=Etenne]] 02:51, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

== English ==
Home page is two words.

Degrees of anonymity exist in English. Doing somethng, you can be more anonymous than before. What user4 calls anonymity we would call "total anonymity". So it's not that you have to choose between anonymity and non-anonymity. Changes made in TOR, which is far from totally secure, and browser security.

==user4 is dangerous==
His inaccurate changes to articles on computer security - basically portraying things as better and safer than they are - are putting boylovers in danger. I suggest you block him.

Do you want references on Tor's lack of security?

Computers become rapidly more powerful (Moore's Law). Thus they are more and more able to penetrate encryption. For more info, look up prime numbers under Cryptography.

I believe this article should be archived (deleted).

The very concept of a security tutorial which, if followed, will make you secure is a big miThe situation changes significantly at least every year, sometimes several times a year.

[[Nancy Whittier]] claims, "All congressional hearings that addressed pornography between 1977 and 1983 did so through the lens of child abuse". She also says, "between 1982-1988, feminists and conservatives were both highly mobilized on the issue and gained extensive congressional attention, federal action, and discursive change. Pornography sparked widespread response from the federal government in the Attorney General's Commission on Pornography, numerous congressional subcommittee hearings, and expanded enforcement divisions within several federal agencies.

Socrates was convicted of  "both corrupting the minds of the youth of Athens and of impiety (asebeia, "not believing in the gods of the state"),and as a punishment sentenced to death" for questioning the established belief system. He subsequently  drank a mixture containing poison hemlock rather than go into exile. I suppose it depends on what risks a person is willing to take. --[[Etenne]]  [[File:BLSmileyface.png|40 px|link=Etenne]] 23:36, 15 October 2018 (UTC)

:Why leave, rather than to try make the appropriate edits to ensure BoyWiki does not appear to be advocating either stance? You have the ability to make edits to content so that it does not encourage or "approve" of sexual contact with children, yet choose not to? BoyWiki is volunteer-run. What articles suggest that adult-child sexual relations are positive? [[User:FalseAlias|FalseAlias]] ([[User talk:FalseAlias|talk]]) 00:21, 16 October 2018 (UTC)

== Making Boywiki more nuteral ==

Hi, [[Etenne]], I am still planning on leaving Boywiki, but I was talking to [[User:FalseAlias|FalseAlias]] and I suggested ways to make Boywiki more neutral. I said, "It would be good to include the opinions of different groups relating to pedophilia: (Virtuous pedophiles supporting and Anti-Contact MAPS), '''groups I strongly support'''," and explain their point-of-view on Boywiki. What do you think? Also, is holding the view that adult-child sex as o.k. or any form of Pedophile Advocacy legal in Canada?

:I don't have a problem with that other then the use of the word Pro-contact which is a derogatory term. I am not pro-contact, I am pro-love.You can replace that word with ''others who hold various differing opinions''. Again, I am not a legal expert and can not give advice on Canadian law. Plus, it is a very bad idea to take legal advice over the internet. If you have questions, contact a competent legal professional.  --[[Etenne]]  [[File:BLSmileyface.png|40 px|link=Etenne]] 11:37, 26 October 2018 (UTC)
::O.K. Thank you very much. I won't use the terms Pro-contact and Anti-contact in editing articles. Unfortunately, I don't feel comfortable editing or having an account on Boywiki. Please don't take this personally. I am sorry, but I feel that I should part ways with Boywiki.  Thank you for helping me.

== Hey, still around? ==

Hey Etenne, are you still around? I'd like to add a picture to the [[https://www.boywiki.org/en/MAPs_irl MAPs irl]] article I created here, and I don't have permission to upload files.

:Echoing hikari's question: you still around? [[User:FalseAlias|FalseAlias]] ([[User talk:FalseAlias|talk]]) 22:43, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

:Bump. [[User:FalseAlias|FalseAlias]] ([[User talk:FalseAlias|talk]]) 20:43, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
::Kind of, sort of..... I check in everyday but I haven't been doing that much.

== Message for Dragonlover ==

Hey Etenne, hope you're doing alright. Dragonlover's having trouble logging into his BoyWiki account and can't reset his password as he's not receiving a reset email. Would you know how to help him?
Thanks,
Hikari

== Status of BoyChat, BoyLinks, and FreeSpirits sites ==

Hi Etenne, and hopefully others.

I've observed that BoyChat, BoyLinks, and the main FreeSpirits site, are all currently non-functional. Could we know what's going on with these sites? Should we be concerned?

Thanks.
~FA, and presumably other concerned persons.

== Request to move the pages of a category ==

Welcome back to BoyWiki, Etenne. I'm Dandelion. I hope you are in good health. 

I made this same request to FalseAlias a couple of weeks ago, but he seems to be unavailable at the moment, and I consider that, in his absence, you are the right person to ask for this big favor.

Last month I changed the name of the category "Boylove Sourcebook" to "Boylove Documentary Sourcebook":

https://www.boywiki.org/en/Category:Boylove_Documentary_Sourcebook

For the sake of consistency, I would be very grateful if you could rename the pages it contains, replacing the acronym between parentheses at the beginning of their titles with the new name of the category, that is, from "(BLSB)" to "(Boylove Documentary Sourcebook)", as in this page:

https://www.boywiki.org/en/(Boylove_Documentary_Sourcebook)_-_The_First_Gay_Experience_of_Gad_Beck

I'm aware that the pages in the category are numerous, so even if you could only rename a few of them every so often, at least until FalseAlias comes back, I would really appreciate it. 

Have a nice day, and sorry for the trouble. [[User:Dandelion|Dandelion]] ([[User talk:Dandelion|talk]]) 13:05, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
::I will try to help out but my time is also limited and I am trying to get the news and main page updated. On that note, also is there some pages that you think are exp. good for me to add to New or improved articles on the main page? --[[Etenne]]

:::Thank you very much for your response. 

:::In answer to your question, I consider that the article on boylove would be a nice introduction to newcomers:

:::https://www.boywiki.org/en/Boylove

:::Regarding the pages in the "Boylove Documentary Sourcebook" category, I think any of the following could be a nice addition:

:::https://www.boywiki.org/en/(BLSB)_-_Age-Structured_Male_Homosexual_Activity_in_Early_Modern_Spain

:::https://www.boywiki.org/en/(BLSB)_-_Age-Structured_Male_Homosexual_Activity_in_Renaissance_Florence
