Your recent edits[edit]

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 03:08, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Problem with File:Durbanreviewboycott.PNG map[edit]

This map indicates that Greenland is part of the EU. While Greenland is a subject of the Danish crown, it is not a member of the EU (nor has it been since 1985. See History of the European Union for more info.) Cheers, Tomer ^talk 05:46, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Tis a good question...I hadn't considered it that deeply...just noted that Greenland isn't part of the EU... Some Danish editors might have a better handle on the degree to which Greenland represents itself (rather than being represented by Denmark) in international discourse... Good luck! :-) Tomer ^talk 20:04, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

March 2009[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Your recent contributions to the Wikipedia article History of Toronto are very much appreciated. However, please take a moment to review your contributions for spelling, grammatical, capitalization, and punctuation errors before you save. This will help lessen the amount of copyediting others must do on the article, and will help maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance of Wikipedia. You might want to consider using the Firefox web browser, which has spell-check built-in, installing the ieSpell extension for Internet Explorer, or setting up spell-check for Opera.

This message is not meant to discourage you from editing Wikipedia but rather to encourage the best possible writing from our authors. Please take a look at the Manual of Style and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Remember: "its" is possessive and "it's" means "it is." See It (pronoun). Thank you. Johnny Au _{(talk/contributions)} 02:20, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

History of Svalbard[edit]

Nice work on the History of Svalbard page. Could you please provide some references? Oh, and next time be sure to spell it Spitsbergen, with no z. The s-spelling is the Dutch version, which is the only correct way to spell it in English, as it was discovered by the Dutch, not the Germans. Jonas Poole (talk) 15:55, 2 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Durban Review Conference[edit]

Hey, I was wondering if you could work your magic and update the graphic you created. Much has happened, which is recorded in the current text of the article. Jalapenos do exist (talk) 18:23, 19 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

April 2009[edit]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Shamu. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Abce2 (talk) 00:27, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You have a new message on Abce2's Talk page[edit]

Oh, and cool userboxes. I like the evil penguin one. --Abce2 (talk) 02:44, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLPs[edit]

Hello Lemniwinks! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 944 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

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.
