Much Better! Now you need to check out how to fgure the status. Click on the link at the bottomof the checklist and follow the instructions there. Also, I'm not sure but we might need put Hugh in the Topic Informant Workgroup. Matt Innis (Talk) 19:50, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

I see what happened [1]. --Matt Innis (Talk) 19:53, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

Sorry again. I'll work slower. But Citizendium needs pages! Haha. But the checklist is all cool now?Jeffrey Scott Bernstein 19:56, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

Teamwork.. Checklist looks good for now. An editor might stop by and change the workgroups around some, but other than that it's all good. When you get good at this we will do {{subpages}} :-) Matt Innis (Talk) 20:00, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

Certainly this is Topic Informant. The lusty old geezer isn't dead yet. --Larry Sanger 20:15, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

sensation

A little editing is needed. The mag. is pretty moribund these days, certainly far from being a sensation. Someone could check the figures, but years ago it was selling several million copies per month; now only a fraction of that. Hayford Peirce 20:57, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

I'll deal with it now; also, I can't seem to make an internal link with "Playboy Magazine". I have no idea why it won't work.Jeffrey Scott Bernstein 20:59, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

According to one Intenret source: "Playboy's circulation is more than three million copies in the United States and 4.5 million worldwide. Ther most widely circulated issue appeared in November 1972 and sold 7,161,561 copies." That's 3 mil per month -- isn't that good?Jeffrey Scott Bernstein 21:01, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

Business Week, 2006: Playboy "(Rate base 3,150,000; reported circulation 3.005,753)"Jeffrey Scott Bernstein 21:04, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

OKAY! Final news, I guess. Starting in January 2008, "Playboy is slashing its paid circulation to 2.6 million from 3 million" [2] That's still okay, isn't it?Jeffrey Scott Bernstein 21:23, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

Family Friendly

As a constable, I want to make sure everyone is aware of our CZ:Family-Friendly Policy. --Matt Innis (Talk) 21:10, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

==Matt, what do you mean by that? Are you suggesting I don't have a smile on my face? I'm having fun and bringing info together. If you think I'm upset or whatever, no way. I love collating info and I'm pretty quick at it; I guess too quick. P.S. Playboy Annual Report for 2005 also says 3 mil a month for 2006.Jeffrey Scott Bernstein 21:13, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

LOL, yes, you must be smiling while you work, I can tell if you aren't >:< :D Matt Innis (Talk) 21:23, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

OH! I see what you mean. Of course. I thought you thought I was mad at having to rewrite. No way. Oh I see. Of course. I will be sure to keep it clean. And I am very sensitive to such things. I mean, I'm keeping books out of the bibliography that might tee off some Particular Person, you understand. For example. But I am sure you were right to inform me of this. I will respect and abide by all rules, period.Jeffrey Scott Bernstein 21:15, 8 October 2007 (CDT)
