  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Hashim Thaçi, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Calling Thaci a "warlord" is a serious accusation without sources. // Chris (complaints)(contribs) 13:55, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Kosovo Liberation Army. Your edits appeared to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. // Chris (complaints)(contribs) 14:07, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

I noticed that many of your edits consisted of tagging biographies with the "warlord" category. Please refrain from doing this without proper reliable sources. Also, not every guerrilla leader or fighter is a warlord - that is a very specific definition that most likely does not apply to the Kosovo conflict. Thank you. // Chris (complaints)(contribs) 14:30, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

  In a 2007 arbitration case, administrators were given the power to impose discretionary sanctions on any user working on articles concerning the Balkans. Before any such sanctions are imposed, editors are to be put on notice of the decision. This notice is not to be taken as implying any inappropriate behaviour on your part, merely to warn you of the Arbitration Committee's decision. Thank you.

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.
