If you are still stuck, you can type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Or, you can join the newcomer's help chat room, where volunteers can answer your questions.
If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user, such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any discussion comment with four tildes (~~~~).

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.
