regards to mainstream science, while I understand the argument there, the reason these things aren't mainstream science is because people refuse to post them until they become mainstream science. The fact is that there's a lot of really bizarre science out there (quantum science is a perfect example) that the majority of people aren't being shown out of the fear of the people showing it to be ridiculed, despite the accuracy of the science. Right now, the page is bombed with criticism (a good portion of which is totally incorrect), and is not being challenged because it's what the mainstream arguably believes. That's just sad. Knowledge should be a source of accuracy. Anyone can go to the top researchers and scientists of the crop circles and ask what they've learned; they will unanimously bring up the fact that even though they may have been extremely skeptical when starting their research, they have had to eventually let go of their preconceptions and accept that humans simply couldn't be responsible. There are many proofs of this, only one of which was the cellular changes that take place in the "authentic" crop circles, but also includes the precision of "authentic" crop circles to millimeters of accuracy in whatever fractal shapes they are (something that trampled crop circles cannot provide, or even usually in professional construction projects), the speed at which some have been identified to be created (which has attempted to be reproduced, even by many of the groups that claim to be crop creators without anything resembling a close success), the lack of human presence that shows up (unlike the ones made by humans), the perfect 90 degree bend of the stalks that cannot be replicated by the trampling (nor even comes close), and so forth. These findings are not just Colin Andrews, and in fact in his book he often writes about the other scientists reporting these things for his own referencing, and merely confirms that his findings are the same. So I appreciate you taking the time to overview this and to ensure that wikipedia is kept legitimate, but my real question here is why are the skeptics being given more credit than the professionals (I'm referring to the university professors, PH.D.s, and other scientific researchers) that are actually out investigating the crop circles? And why is this a consistent pattern for many of the other fringe sciences just because the mainstream is afraid to hear it?

as perhaps the leading expert on crop circles. It was revised, and I was asked to post here. I understand that skeptics want their share in the post, which is fine, but the honest data that reflects the actual science put forth by people who actually study the phenomenon should be the most important part, regardless of what their studies say. In this case, the studies show that this phenomenon, at least those crop circles believed to be authentic, currently have no way of being reproduced by humans. I am unfamiliar with some of the writing techniques used to edit wikipedia pages, but I was asked to precursor factual statements of decades of research with "Colin Andrews believes." This is unfair, and I would like my references allowed to return in the proper format. Everything I posted was true, referenced, documented scientifically, and in fact correcting misleading statements that were used by others on the page. Skeptics can argue what the results of the science means, but they cannot argue the facts of the science itself. The science itself is not a belief, it is documented research conducted by professionals. I can accept that there will be skeptics who assume everything unusual HAS to be a conspiracy and we're all out to them with science that *clearly* MUST have been fabricated, but when the the research is available, it is their duty to criticize what it could mean within the information provided, not try to deny and belittle the research that was put into it so they can feel safe in their beliefs. I do not see these quantifiers in other wikipedia pages for other statements of factual science, and it should not have to be applied here. I have provided wikipedia with the book reference so that anyone can see for themselves the research available on the topic, and I would like to see my revisions returned (in whatever altered form the heading / body requires), as they were both fair and scientific.

every effort to go out of your way to impede my edits and waste my time. If this is wrong then why don't you prove it for once by your actions. So what if you edited this page once in the last year, you are only actively here now as a response to my being here. Whether you monitor these pages or not is irrelevant as you make the choice to constantly negatively interact with me. I'm not "insinuating" anything, this is your documented history with me and at this point you'll get from me no better than you give. You've never assumed good faith on my part for the simple reason we do not share the same POV on anything and you assume everything I do must be sinister and disruptive. And as far as these other editors are concerned, they did not offer me good faith before I called Gemi a dumbass and if anything offered me nothing less than total irresponsible obstinance for no other reason than to protect their POV. Total nonsense, and if you were being an objective observer which I assume is a requirement of being an administrator, you would have stepped in before things got ugly. But of course you wouldn't because the offending editors share your POV, but if it was the other way around you'd be all over it. And where are they now? They hack these edits and make no follow up to defend their position? This kind of stuff happens all the time here -you know this, but in my experience you only intervene when it suits your POV. Regardless, I'll assume good faith when it is given and if you want a better working relationship with me then you need to be fair regardless of the fact you disagree. Once again-waste of time. Done.

the broader title of "Hoaxers" anyways. It says/implies even though they claimed in 1991 to have hoaxed all crop circles up to that point "it was still happening", as if it should have just stopped since they were no longer doing it, which leads to crop circles resembling "extraterrestrials as portrayed by certain science fiction movies" which is not supported by the citations. I'm not sure what formation this even refers to, but this comprises, what-one or two out of several thousand and yet it is given pole position? Come on. That's nonsense. It further says: "Among others, paranormal enthusiasts, ufologists, and anomalistic investigators have offered hypothetical explanations that have been criticized as pseudoscientific by skeptical groups like the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry". Of course this statement is lead by the cranks and ends with "anomalistic investigators" and says nothing of scientists or the British government, but no, the article cited from the "Committee for Skeptical Inquiry", which should be considered fringe in it's own right, does not criticize these theories as "pseudoscientific"-at least nowhere does this citation say this, which makes it OR. Regardless, none of that has to do with Doug and Dave. There are many others that have offered explanations and yet according to this article they have been summarily explained away as pseudoscientific by one group. This paragraph belongs in the associated section, not Doug and Dave, and also the wording needs to be more accurate and balanced without clear intent to demean as well as needed a large amount of missing material to be added.

1091:

whether in looking at a crop circle we can quickly distinguish the real from the fake (based on some secondary attribute such as the resultant pattern) but on what features are said to be attributable to natural circles. These attributes are repeatedly said to include: signs of extreme heat in the stalks joints; stalks are bent and not broken; alleged higher nitrogen levels soon after formation which would be consistent with a high electrical charge; some videos of a ball-lightning like object during formation; sounds captured during formation (5.2 kHz); evidence of heat on the ground; and so on and on. Many assert in journals that a real circle have a verifiable signature that could be reliably identified in a double-blind study. The question is not to 'get rid of the article' here altogether, but to make the distinction between the real (natural) and the fake (man-made). To argue that the distinction is not valid, or that natural crop circles are not possible because a macro observer can't always make the distinction between the two is like saying that a hypothetical distinction between two frog species would not be valid since the distinction between the two species is not always clear to the *casual* observer, even if such a distinction can be verifiably and consistently made through DNA analysis.

1349:

much other evidence comes from documented field research or statistical analysis or observations of the logistics of being man-made on a world wide scale as well as the fact crop circles have been reported long before 1978. Such evidence may be contested, but it is not even mentioned here what it is. Furthermore, by the same token, there is no evidence that all crop circles are man-made either and many can and have been adequately explained as not being such on equal grounds. "What else could have done it" is not proof either way. This section offers no context for any of these statements and quickly leads to "There have been cases in which researchers declared crop circles to be "the real thing", only to be confronted with the people who created the circle and documented the fraud" which is not even in the article cited saying this comes from "citation 6" a completely different article. The paragraph goes further along this vein but never gives any content or context for why people think all crop circles might not be man-made. Aren't we supposed to say what one view is and why they think that and then cite the reasons why others disagree? To add balance does not mean to give equal weight to the validity of the ideas, it means that both sides are equally presented.

relevant to natural crop circles. The rather persistent inclusion of distracting material intro this article seems less a matter of laziness than of deliberate ideology that we live in an era that knows most everything, and a non-scientific spirit disguising itself as a faithful servant of science will not stop at anything to hide the unknown, or to make fun of rational inquiry into evidence using innuendo and sites like Knowledge to do their work. We might consider a 'pseudo-debunking' prank by several MIT undergraduates that got breathlessly and naively reported by the Discovery Channel 'expose' of crop circles as if it were some peer review inquiry by MIT professors. In fact their explanation and procedures didn't work, and oh, surprise, they were at least trying to explain some of the heat attributes we have mentioned concerning natural crop circles (as opposed to the man-made) which, surprise, did not make it into the Knowledge article as it stands. Bottom line, use the peer review material, get rid of the planker story, or at least put it in another article, assemble evidence, and if you want, you can include a section on 'speculations' on the bottom, which, I understand, are quite numerous, and don't all include tales of aliens.

expect that to happen if we don't show it to them with anything other than minimal efforts to satisfy the few who are willing to speak up about it? Mainstream isn't going to change until we give them the facts, and it's impossible to expect them to have the facts if you're not willing to provide them with the unbiased reviews of the science. So the only logical conclusion is the the editors of the page need to be educated in the science and be willing to post it as the science is found. But the admins such as yourself are ultimately responsible for the content, so unless you're informed about it, or those who have studied it have been allowed to edit it, there's no ground that we can make on it. And while I realize that I can't just make you go out and buy a few books on crop circles and do the investigative reporting with all of the scientists to confirm this, it's about the only way I can conceive of that would allow this page to reflect the accuracy it deserves. So what can we do regarding the paradox of the mainstream issue as it currently stands? (( Edit: FYI, I don't mean to imply that you're being unfair with how you're proceeding. I realize I'm challenging common perceptions, so thank you for looking into this. ))

4671:"The detailed exposition (with diagrams) of the effects of lightning, which I have omitted from the quotation, had to suppose a cone of force projected from the thunder cloud to intersect the ground surface in a (usually imperfect) circle. This has little to do with the operation of lightning as actually observed, but it anticipates in its broad approach the plasma vortex theory developed by Dr Terence Meaden to account for modern crop-circles. Meaden's starting point was a disc of flattened crop, though he later elaborated his model to encompass concentric rings, whereas Plot was dealing with (possibly scorched) rings in grass; but both needed to find an atmospheric force that would produce an otherwise unexplained circular phenomenon at the surface. The whole tone of Plot's discourse, trying at first to be open-minded but looking for a decent scientific explanation, brings to mind that of the more responsible students of cropcircles in the years before it became clear that the most striking examples of these were actually the work of modern landscape artists." 3198:: The media has very successfully are creating the opinion, that all of “Crop circles” are the result of hoaxes (human jokes ‐ pranks with planks, with laser, with GPS equipments), or are the result of action of extraterrestrials, or electromagnetic irradiation plants, which are creating UFO and other, unidentified (fantastical) objects. This opinion media is grounded by that academic science does not wish or incapable explain complexity images of “Crop circles”. On this account, investigation of images of "Crop circles" executes the groups of enthusiasts, without participation of academic organizations. Was proved that the natural "Crop circles" arises up during of formation of cracks at porous rock, located in earth under the fields with plants. The natural "Crop circles" may take the form of complex geometrical and other images (see 2522:

responsibility lies with you to get informed on the policies and learn how to originate substantiated content that reports the facts cautiously and intelligently – then take on the work needed to fix the problem you have identified. Although you have as much right to contribute content as anyone else, I would suggest that, as a new editor, you will get greater support if you propose significant additions or alterations on this talk-page first, so that any potential problems can be fixed, which would make the content more secure and enduring when added to the main page. Take a look at what Jason is doing, by developing content in his sandbox. It helps WP a lot if editors from different perspectives work collaboratively together, and that means listening to each other’s arguments and respecting the criticism that are offered in good faith; not assuming that this place is built on a conspiracy to repress the information found by subject experts and investigators.

circles". In the article, genuine "crop circles" are examined as «Other explanations»??? The problem of "crop circles" is solved. It is known how the mysterious patterns and images appear in the genuine "crop circles" and in the man-made "crop circles". It is known how abnormal expansion nodes on the stems of wheat in the genuine "crop circles" appear. Technologies, which create man-made "crop circles", with the abnormal expansion nodes on the stems of wheat and with other characteristic features, which have been found in genuine "crop circles", which are unknown. Your expectation that the «comprehensive and detailed explanation of microwaves and how they effect plants» will create a corresponding characteristic features in the man-made "crop circles" are not justified theoretically and practically. Therefore, for the article, it's not the worthy texts about the microwaves. I agree that the government should increase spending on science.'.

1339:. Even the hoaxers, quoting them directly, believe there is a genuine phenomenon only that now they are a "part of it". If the hoaxers themselves think there is something more to it then how is that not relevant because who is better to speak on such matters than the people actually doing it? Lundberg's title of his article is "alien lightforms" so to say he doesn't call them that is incorrect, but if you have a problem with that word then edit that one word as I did for you. The point of using that term is not to say they are "alien", but these are the words of the person being cited, which I think is relevant and lends to their credibility or lack there of. The point of that part is not to bring up the idea of aliens, but the balls of light associated with crop circles which are a well documented integral part of the phenomenon and not even mentioned in this article. 2561:

doesn't matter. What matters is whether or not the information is accurate. I am certainly challenging common conceptions by trying to bring it to the attention of the page, as I had mentioned, but to consider that relevant in any way to the goal of Knowledge makes no sense, unless WP has a disclaimer about not trying to rough up the mainstream belief patterns (which I highly doubt). As mentioned earlier, I'm remarking on the fact that in reference to the idea that we need mainstream to catch up to the scientific research provided before we can adequately express it is inherently flawed - the results as the science shows needs to be published in order for that to happen, which ends in a paradox if the proper information isn't provided. We're arguing the same thing here, with differing understandings on what that research may or may not be.

2880:: «authentic», «genuine» or «natural» preferred than «Foreign». Your text "Consistencies amongst these types of crop circles include biological changes that occur at a cellular level, very accurate 90-degree bends in the stalks at positions above the level of a trampling (the techniques most prominently used in the creation of human-made crop circles ), and are extremely precise in their measurements of the formations, down to millimeters of precision.

These crop circles also tend to reflect the nature of complicated mathematics ... " will do the article better. All that is said in the text is theoretically proved in «Crop Circles: Theory of Anomalous Expansion of Nodes on Wheat Stalk. 2431:

though modern science has some unproven and highly hypothetical theories, they gain acceptance because those theories have developed out of the principles of accepted science. So they are seen as theoretically acceptable, even if some of them are dubious, rather bizarre, and likely to be rejected when another, more elegant theory, presents an alternative model to work to. On the other hand, science has no accepted precedent or theoretically supported theory related to paranormal or ET formations of crop-circles. Therefore, explanations that lean in that direction – or even those that merely raise issues which accepted science does not understand - are necessarily subject to suspicion and doubt. WP has a duty to reflect that, because it is the fact of the matter in today’s world.

no activity spotted - that would have been there if it were humans. Basically the truth is that the skeptics are ignoring certain facts which just plainly cannot be ignored whether one likes it or not - these skeptics forfeit logic and observed facts in favour of a more simple, understandable and comfortable world - their world, perhaps they are afraid of the truth or are against it as they might feel weak if they cant explain the matter - perhaps that weakness is related to a sense of honour that the individual might hold. The truth is the truth even if it may be unexplainable or ugly and ignoring it or explaining it away with illogical explanation is unscientific and non academic. Ultimately the phenomena continues to occur and does not care if you believe in it or not

4525:"As to the green circles on the downes, vulgarly called faiery circles (dances), I presume they are generated from the breathing out of a fertile subterraneous vapour. (The ring-worme on a man's flesh is circular. Excogitate a paralolisme between the cordial heat and ye subterranean heat, to elucidate this phenomenon.) Every tobacco-taker knowes that 'tis no strange thing for a circle of smoke to be whiff'd out of the bowle of the pipe; but 'tis donne by chance. If you digge under the turfe of this circle, you will find at the rootes of the grasse a hoare or mouldinesse. But as there are fertile steames, so contrary wise there are noxious ones, which proceed from some mineralls, iron, &c.; which also as the others, cæteris paribus, appear in a circular forme." 2049:? Im not suggesting that Government spending be written into the article as I don't think that's relevant to this article, it should just state facts about the phenomenon and be backed up with reputable citations, but I was suggesting that you add a more comprehensive and detailed explanation of microwaves and how they effect plants; Because that is relevant to the phenomenon. This article is too simplified and is missing a lot of vital information and research. It also emphasizes the Doug and Dave 'prankster' explanation, which is just one of many other possible explanations. I don't read this article as having a neutral viewpoint. I agree its appropriate to first discuss these issues and come to a consensus. Well anyway, Have a great day. 2456:”. I am no expert in this but I just read through the page again and I doesn’t look to me like the page is bombed down with unfair criticism. I consider myself to be sceptical but certainly open-minded to all arguments, and I think I represent the reader who – in turning to the page to get informed on the issue - wants to see all the known information, as well as the pertinent theories and relevant speculative suggestions featured. I want to see that information offered intelligently - I don’t want to be hit with a page full of bias, and I’ve made a few light edits to the page myself when I’ve been struck by a comment or an unnecessary emphasis that is in danger of losing the tone of objectivity. 2794:

these circles do not die, and in fact often grow larger and produce more grain than their counterparts do. Consistencies amongst these types of crop circles include biological changes that occur at a cellular level, very accurate 90-degree bends in the stalks at positions above the level of a trampling (the techniques most prominently used in the creation of human-made crop circles), and are extremely precise in their measurements of the formations, down to millimeters of precision. Unlike human-made circles, they are frequently absent of any traces human activity when researchers arrive at the scene. These crop circles also tend to reflect the nature of complicated mathematics and musical scales.

from a distance, circular spots (...) they all presented much the same character, viz, a few standing stalks as a centre, some postrate stalks with their heads arranged pretty evenly in a direction forming a circle round the centre, and outside there a circular wall of stalks which had not suffered. (...) I could not trace locally any circumstances accounting for the peculiar forms of the patches in the field, nor indicating whether it was wind or rain, or both combined, which had caused them, beyond the general evidence everywhere of heavy rainfall. They were suggestive to me of some cyclonic wind action, and may perhaps have been noticed elsewhere by some of your readers.

be categorized and relegated to a encyclopedia sub-section entitled 'controversial explanations.' However the explanations are separate from the phenomena. Consider this question: what is human consciousness? Some neo-Gnostic group out there might assert that human consciousness is in fact an 'alien spark' that has fallen to earth and been "captured" by a savannah hominid which then co-evolved with this independent entity the way mitochondria were seemingly captured. Fine, but the unverifiable and fanciful explanation should not in itself disqualify other, more measured, scientific, and verifiable inquiry into the nature and origins of human consciousness.

The actions of natural phenomenons on earth and man-made hoaxes fully sufficiently for creation and explanation of the known properties of the images «Crop Circles». Therefore there is not a necessity to explain properties of the images «Circles on the fields» by using the actions of aliens. Decoding of image "crop circles" has the meaning applied to "Crop Circles", created by man-made hoaxes . With regard to "Crop Circles" created by natural phenomenons on earth , it makes sense to apply physical and mathematical modeling. 1782:

presentation of the information to the reader. While I'm sure it could be further improved, this article in it's previous state was a prime example of the havoc competing POV's cause on controversial topics with no neutral administration intervention. Left in it's wake is often a mish-mash of gobbledygook, poor organization and sentence structure, and incessant negative qualifiers leaving an article nearly incomprehensible. I find this on almost every Wiki page of alternative subject material I find, which I think is sad and not really the reason we edit here. I will be moving on from this page and will check back from time to time.

2026:. The government has nothing to do with this problem. With regard to the losing money due to damaged crops of farmers: avoid the losing money, due to damaged crops in genuine "crop circles", is impossible; avoid the losing money, due to damaged crops in man-made "crop circles", is problem for the police. Before you make any changes, including those mentioned in your comments, it is appropriate to discuss usefulness to the article of this changes on this page.

facts about "authentic" crop circles than some pranksters who get famous for taking credit for stomping around in a field, which didn't happen until after the scientific phenomenon of crop circles was exposed through publishing the unusual traits. So I guess I'm just a little disappointed and upset about what I perceive as an accusation that I'm being unfair about what I see as worthy of valid change on a "unbiased" page. I didn't have an issue bringing up Colin Andrews or any of the scientists he works with. I had a problem with "Colin Andrew believes" which at the time was the reason stated for the removal of my content.

The instantaneous decline of pressure of air on the external shell of stalk of plant occurs when arises an instantaneous rupture of a porous rock (chalk, limestone, etc.) under the ground. When an instantaneous rupture of a porous rock occurs, arises electromagnetic radiation that interacts with the electromagnetic field of the Earth, with the atmospheric electricity, and affects all devices and affects all biological objects in the areas of his actions. Instantaneous rupture of a porous rock is accompanied by heat, which raises the temperature of surrounding rock and soil below the figure “Crop Circle”. 4733:, who take a particular delight in deriding the inability of ‘experts’ to find explanations that seize the imagination of the public. Although Stukeley’s obsession with Druids demonstrates that finding supernatural or mystical connotations with antiquities is not new, views of this kind have never been so widely disseminated (Williams 1991). Few archaeologists have sold as many paperbacks as von Däniken; more recently, a meteorologist who linked crop circles to prehistoric ring-ditches or round barrows generated a reaction that no orthodox student of these monuments has ever achieved (Meaden 1991)." 2478:

editors here will help you if you understand their concerns and take their criticisms on board. For example, Dougweller has pointed out that you need to be careful in how you express the information, so that it is factual, robust, and free from criticisms of inaccuracy or undue weight. To say that Colin Andrews “found” something would raise unnecessary controversy – because, unless it was fully substantiated and corroborated, it could be argued whether this was “found” by his study. However, it is not controversial to say that he reported his findings, or to explain what those findings are.

671:

stated they do not give out honorary titles. So all research on this soil sampling and blown nodes is nonsense and has been explained away as natural effects by real plant biologists. Look up the term "phototropism" to see why plants bend upwards towards the light and crack (blow out) at their nodes (knuckles). I think discussion of hese and other rubbished facts is pointless as no scientific research has really been done to a peer review standard. Levengood was the only person in 100 years to have his paper later removed from Pschologia Plantarium. I wonder why. --

that a bunch of scientists with laser measuring and GPS equipment would be able to pull something off like this, but what the hell is a "portable microwave generator"? And i don't even wanna go into detail why this would not just be a pretty expensive and complicated hoax with limited practical use. And i really wanna see that "portable microwave generator that pushes down crops in a special pattern". Actually while we can sure argue about crop circles i think the "portable microwave generator" is the worst hoax in this whole article. Imho that should be removed.

than being simply crushed (as in the hoaxers' method); I think they had some oddity at the point where they were bent, as though the plants had undergone some biological change. This bit of information made an impression on me, and I'm surprised I haven't really heard it repeated often, if at all. I don't know how reliable a source this would be, but I'd guess that their "unexplained" segments held to the same fact-checking standards as their more mundane segments (missing persons, criminal investigations), which sometimes lead to the mystery being solved.

1828:". WP gives the example that it would be undue weight to give recognition of the flat-earth theory in an article about the earth, but within the article about the flat-earth theory, then obviously it's not undue weight to explain what the theories are, why they exist, and who have reported on them. As ridiculous as such theories appear to most of us, WP aims to report neutrally with a detached, objective tone, whilst presenting the majority view in sufficient detail that the reader can understand how the minority view differs from it. 865:

science journal. That means significant issues and items in the human canon need to be credibly presented in such a way that at least demonstrates why they are significant. As written, one gets the impression from this article that crop circles have no meaning to humanity other than an amusing past-time for people with too much time on their hands. To whomsoever thinks that they are making wikipedia a better source of knowledge with these "improvements," you are most mistaken. - David, July 19, 2010

simple grammatical errors can profoundly abstract communication. Are you a native speaker of German by chance? Just a guess. I didn't realize this article was specially written for "man-made" crop circles. If so, it should be renamed and moved with the title "Man-Made Crop Circles" Otherwise its too ambiguous. Otherwise if the article is about Crop Circles (in general), it should detail all aspects of crop circles both man-made and genuine(unexplained) and with a neutral point of view.

Gust wind create the lodging of plants and anomalous Expansion of Nodes of stalks plants in the "Crop circles". The electromagnetic and acoustic radiations have an impact on all biological and UFO objects that are in the area of “Crop circles”. Very complex images of natural “Crop circles” are possible. 1297:

other than what it says. This does not mean they were made by aliens or Jesus. If you think it should be reworded then by all means please do, but the fact is we do not know how all crop circles are made which should be noted in the lead. Also, isn't "the most widely known method for man-made crop formations" more economical and flow better than "most widely known method for a person or group to construct a crop formation"? Is better sentence structure offensive here too?

4131:, of the form all As are Bs. I think what you are saying is that we are conflating two phenomena; hoax crop circles and unexplained crop circles. This is not inherently contradictory, it is not inconcievable that all crop circles are hoaxes. The key is to go with the weight of the evidence. My opinion is that the best evidence is that most or all are explainable as hoaxes. But this does not mean that we can dismiss the other explanations outright, we consider them, and 4637: 1629:». Opponents have not denied this allegation. This assertion is key to assessing changes to the text of the article.

(Obviously this does not require giving those sources undue credence). -- 1805:

establish the 'truth' of what the crop circles are before the article even begins. Since the subject is not without controversy, then either some element of the controversy ought to neutrally reported within the lede, or the lede should remain totally objective in its introduction and end at the point the final comment commences. The text prior to that makes a really good lede and needs no further qualification in my opinion.

2899:'Foreign' doesn't work; but neither does 'authentic', 'genuine' or 'natural' - all of these imply that 'true' crop circles are only the ones that have no explicable origin, (such as animals or freak weather conditions). That would create undue weight. Perhaps you could avoid this by saying something like "the circle formations which are of most interest to researchers are those that have been reported to exhibit ...." ? 962:"While most of the observed patterns have revealed as products of deception, artistic expression and business/tourist interests, some still elude rational or verified explanation, and are dubbed "genuine". Such cases have been examined by a few researches via the scientific method.

So the essential distinction is between 'natural' and 'man-made' circles, since only the latter attract cricisms of being 'hoaxes'. Then you have the problem of those that are not proven to be man-made, but are suspected of that because of their elaborate designs, etc. Here it is relevant to talk

As a reader with no pre-conceptions, one point I felt was missing is why crop-circles continue to generate fascination, even from people (like myself) who don't doubt they must all be either man-made or naturally formed. I felt there should be some coverage on how intricate some of these 'circles'

Ah, I wrote the term "authentic" as the way the book referred to them, which was to distinguish between crop circles that they said were "clearly man made" and those which did not fit the bill of being created by humans. The term was not really my own. I'm fine with altering the terminology. In

While doing some casual reading on crop circles, I noticed that the footnotes are misaligned. For example, #21 should be where #22 is in the article. I was too lazy and disinterested in crop circles to fix this problem, but someone should get on it. I was very confused for at least 45 seconds.

You talk of several sources, but the "early reports" section has no secondary sources linking those reports with modern crop circles, except to say that the Tully case inspired hoaxers Bower and Chorley. So, I'll ask again: Insufficiently authoritative compared to what other secondary source?

Thanks very much for this. My objection wasn't to using Colin Andrews, although I'm not sure we can say he 'found', but we could say Andrews 'writes', or 'says' or something that doesn't imply he's right - or wrong. As for 'authentic', if we can avoid it, let's just not use the word as it has
