Sloanification[edit]

This article is the most sloanificated piece that I've ever seen! It needs to be rewritten from scratch rather than merely copy-edited for redundancy, grammar, and juvenile word choice! —12.72.71.31 19:32, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hahahaha!!!!![edit]

Whahahahahahahaaaa!!!! This article is great!!! And what does "sloanification" mean???--Bruno Junqueira 13:13, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The word “sloanify” means to affect or effect in the style of Sam Sloan. —12.72.73.60 03:37, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No; “sloanify” means to cause to resemble Sam Sloan; “sloanificate” means to affect or effect in the style of Sam Sloan. —12.72.72.229 10:42, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Improved, but not enough[edit]

I made some factual improvements, but I agree that the entire article needs to be rewritten. Nicmart 14:04, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any reason to believe St. James had not worked as a prostitute, that the word "claim" needs to be used so emphatically? Шизомби (talk) 17:15, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The judge based his verdict on St. James's awareness of sexual terminology. Such flaming crap verdicts were more common in that era. —12.72.72.216 (talk) 10:50, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Still some incorrect facts. St. James wasn't the pres. of the Sexual Freedom League. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.197.193.228 (talk) 02:11, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Corrected some of the factual errors and hopefully cleaned up some of the chronology and language.
