Disambiguation link notification for January 19 edit
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ruth Madoc, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Crossed Swords. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Get rid of ALL adminisrators who delete more than they add. Starting with Derek_Ross.
If you don't know what the difference between Administration, Editing and Destruction is then how is it possible to administer anything thats deleated?. DOH. HELLO?.

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.

Scots Wikipedia edit
Hi
I see you used to be an administrator on the Scots Wikipedia and haven't edited it for over four years but have continued with wikipedia. I would like to know what you think about this. Munci (talk) 22:30, 10 December 2015 (UTC)
- Well, I'm a little disappointed I suppose but it's not really a big deal. I don't place a lot of importance on being an administrator or not. -- Derek Ross | Talk 00:35, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
- I see. What about the wikipedia in general? Myself, I started editing it regularly recently and noticed that there were more editors beforehand. Munci (talk) 06:20, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
- I'm still a strong supporter of all Wikipedias in every language. However I have been contributing since 2001 and feel that I have done my share over the years, so I hope that I can be forgiven for not editing as much (on any Wikipedia) as I used to. I am delighted to hear of newer editors such as yourself taking the baton from the likes of me. I still think that Scots Wikipedia is important as one of the biggest "all-Scots" sites on the Internet. -- Derek Ross | Talk 00:21, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
