  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Norway Debate. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Trafford09 (talk) 21:04, 31 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Brown Ministry

edit

Your edit appears to be POV-pushing and has been reverted by at least three different editors. If you truly believe your edit is a reasonable one, begin a discussion at Talk:Brown Ministry. If you continue to proceed as you have, editors will stop assuming good faith and and take your edits as disruptive. Should that happen, you may find yourself blocked. -Rrius (talk) 19:30, 15 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content, as you did to the page Talk:38 Degrees. Blank pages can confuse readers, and are overall not helpful to the Wikipedia project; furthermore, blanking a page is not the same as deleting it.

If the article you blanked is a duplicate of another article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalized, please revert it to the last legitimate revision. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please use the appropriate deletion process.   — Jeff G.  ツ 14:27, 24 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Auto-updating OPSI

edit

Hi!

I saw this edit, and I'm pretty sure that's not true. This HTML version of the Act will not be updated to include amendments.

This is because OPSI contains both HTML versions of acts that are automatically revised (like this one) in addition to HTML versions that are not updated (like this one). Gabbe (talk) 17:36, 28 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Academies Act 2010

edit

Hi. I noticed that you removed Sir Peter Newsam's comments about the Act from the article. I agree it's fair to call them hyperbolic, as it is clearly a sort of Reductio ad Hitlerum-type fallacy but my argument for inclusion is it that the comments were from an expert on education and published in a reliable source - so even if they are extreme it's not our place to make that subjective judgement. Also re the POV tag, my argument is that POV should only really apply if it does not reflect the presiding view in the media etc. Since most of the sources when I researched the topic seemed to come up against (I used basically the first page of google news results on "Academies Bill") that's what I included.

For example, I think NPOV could be achieved if we included the following sources, as they give the other side. I'll get onto it tomorrow when I've a bit more time on my hands.

Thanks.

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
