Thanks in advance. :)

Disagreements are just as much a part of Wikipedia as agreements, and if there were no disagreement there would be no progress, really. Just something I live by, in all honesty. Daniel Benfield (talk) 00:41, 13 May 2009 (UTC}

Archives

NOTE: As mentioned on my user page, I'm usually on Wikibreak. I'm definitely still around, though. :)

This is currently Season 7 (2014-15), but I've kept every discussion since the beginning because I know better than to go wiping (not like that, shut up):

The above pages are for archival purposes, so I'd appreciate it if you don't modify them. Any new comments regarding those discussions should be posted at the bottom of this talk page, with a link to the relevant original discussion so I know what you're referring to. 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.
