Cape Parry edit

Good catch here. I saw the summary and wondered if the source actually gave a distance to the pole. After looking at the source I noticed that the Cape Parry mentioned in it was at 81 56 N. I might not have seen it if your summary hadn't included the 70deg12m N. I looked through the rest of the article for any other errors and noticed that Robert Peary visited the area. However, at the time mentioned he was in Greenland/Ellesmere Island. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 07:22, 19 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

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.
