You could start by not doing stuff like this :-) -- if you are genuinely sincere about helping out, I am leaving you a message on your talk page. — Kai Ojima 17:26, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
Although the vandalism was blatant, see WP:BITE. There's no need to be rude. — Waterfox ~talk~ 20:17, 27 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
In what way was I rude? — Kai Ojima 20:18, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
"You could start by not doing stuff like..." is not the way I'd talk to a friend, to be honest. — Waterfox ~talk~ 20:20, 27 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
I don't see that as rude, and I had a smiley face at the end. Maybe it is the language barrier. Sorry. — Kai Ojima 20:21, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
I guess it's judgement-based. Anyway, just be careful. :) — Waterfox ~talk~ 20:25, 27 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Signature edit

Hey, if you don't want a fancy user page, I suggest the following bit as your signature: [[Special:Contributions/Kai Ojima|Kai Ojima]] ([[User talk:Kai Ojima|talk]]), which produces: Kai Ojima (talk) — Waterfox ~talk~ 20:19, 27 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

It appears that the default is [[User]] ([[User talk]]), so I would not wish to confuse anyone clicking on it by thinking that they were going to visit my user page, but thank you. :-) — Kai Ojima 20:21, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

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.
