January 2010 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add content (particularly if you change facts and figures), as you have to the article List of Meerkat Manor meerkats, please cite a reliable source for the content you're adding or changing. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 19:32, 30 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Monkey World Chimpanzees edit

 

The article Monkey World Chimpanzees has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No notability, just an unencyclopedical list of monkeys. Has not been edited for many days, so it's not really under construction.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and

Images edit

Hi. If you want to use non-free images such as company logos they should be uploaded here on Wikipedia. All other images should be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons where you'll need to create an account if you haven't already. The upload page over on the Commons explains what images are allowed and how to upload. Further information about how to upload and use these images can be found at Help:Files, Wikipedia:Image use policy, Wikipedia:Images and Wikipedia:Picture tutorial. Infobox images need to be handled slightly differently because they don't require the "thumb" parameter so the image size sometimes has to be given. You can experiment at Wikipedia:Sandbox or create your own sandbox in your userspace (for example User:DennisGWhiskers/Sandbox). If you need further assistance, just ask.

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.
