Dropping by

[edit]

Hi. I just wanted to drop by and say hello. I looked through the cites that were there, but the only thing I could find that was remotely legit was the Huffington Post story. So I left that in there with the accusation, even though it seems a little flimsy to me (and is based on a partisan group's attack paper). But I"m something of an inclusionist. If there were any other sources that were relevant or approriate please post them on the talk page so I can reconsider and see if there's a way to reinclude. Take care.

Rick Scott and Iran

[edit]

Hi there, Kandomagoo. Just a few minutes ago, I proposed to delete the section "Other corporate involvements" on the Rick Scott Wikipedia page, which I see you have just worked on. I have done some research to get to the bottom of the situation, and posted what I found on the Talk page (see here). The upshot is that Iran apparently stole the software, so it's simply unfair to imply that Scott was in any way involved with Iran's censorship. If you agree with the points I've made, I'd like to request that you remove it, because while I could do so based on its negligible sourcing, I also do have a WP:COI relationship with Scott and do not wish to make any edits without consensus. If you do agree, please make that change. If you don't disagree, I'll be WP:BOLD and remove it myself, assuming there are no objections. Thanks.

Progressive Democrats

[edit]

Hi. I noticed you moved the Progressive Democrats to Progressive Democrats (Ireland) earlier this year. I think this might not have been the best idea. Under Wikipedia naming conventions on Precision, parentheses should only be used when there is more than one article vying for that precise title. Yes, there's the Progressive Democrats of America and the Progressive Democratic Party. But even if they might casually be called Progressive Democrats, the party in Ireland was the only one to use that full name, and only that full name. I was a member of the party, so you might say I'm biased, but it's more that I know the hassle to edit a lot of articles on Irish politics, that's unnecessary if we're following Wikipedia policies precisely.

Given the old title redirects to the title with the modifier, rather than a disambig page, it's a good sign that the old title was all right. I think the a disambig notice at the top of the page at Progressive Democrats should suffice. William Quill (talk) 17:15, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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.
