Illegitimi non carborundum

Hope you return after a nice break. Blueboar (talk) 02:52, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

Regarding http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Nat_Turner%27s_slave_rebellion&diff=next&oldid=466566739 where you stated "(it's "hanged" in this meaning, isn't it? unless it's a GB/US difference)". No, it's a literacy/illiteracy difference. It IS hanged, NOT hung. "(Changed "hanged" to "hung">>> it was a grammer mistake)". Note the user's spelling of "grammer". Oddly, both in UK AND US it's ACTUALLY spelt "grammar". I wouldn't put TOO much stock into someone correcting "grammer"...until they learn to SPELL properly. "Hung" was likely meant to be a double-entendre. "Hanged" rather than "hung" is not a grammer (sic) mistake. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.242.78.142 (talk) 19:59, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

Notice concerning an action at ArbCom

A request has been filed for the Arbitration Committee to look at long-term issues with editing in the Article Titles and MOS areas at Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Case#Article titles/MOS. I have added your name as a party, since it is clear that you have been involved at pages that are within the scope of the action.

Hoping all is well with you, K.

WP Poland in the Signpost

The WikiProject Report would like to focus on WikiProject Poland for a Signpost article. This is an excellent opportunity to draw attention to your efforts and attract new members to the project. Would you be willing to participate in an interview? If so, here are the questions for the interview. Just add your response below each question and feel free to skip any questions that you don't feel comfortable answering. Multiple editors will have an opportunity to respond to the interview questions. If you know anyone else who would like to participate in the interview, please share this with them. Have a great day. -Mabeenot (talk) 08:28, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

Ping. The interviews are due soon! --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me} 19:41, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Hope to see you back soon!

I completely agree with Blueboar above. Also, on behalf of WP:POLAND, please accept our wishes of good health. I hope you come back; my suggestion is to avoid the areas that have proven stressful, and enjoy yourself with edits elsewhere - for example, creating Poland-related articles, or helping with our backlogs, from B-class reviews to cleanup tags. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me} 18:54, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

Mediation Cabal: Request for participation

Dear Kotniski: Hello. This is just to let you know that you've been mentioned in the following request at the Mediation Cabal, which is a Misplaced Pages dispute resolution initiative that resolves disputes by informal mediation.

The request can be found at Misplaced Pages:Mediation Cabal/Cases/27 February 2012/Wikipedia:Verifiability.

Just so you know, it is entirely your choice whether or not you participate. If you wish to do so, and we'll see what we can do about getting this sorted out. At MedCab we aim to help all involved parties reach a solution and hope you will join in this effort.

If you have any questions relating to this or any other issue needing mediation, you can ask on the case talk page, the MedCab talk page, or you can ask the mediator, Mr. Stradivarius, at their talk page. MedcabBot (talk) 14:10, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Article titles and capitalisation closed

An arbitration case regarding article titles and capitalisation has now closed and the final decision is viewable at the link above. The following remedies have been enacted:

1. All parties are reminded to avoid personalizing disputes concerning the Manual of Style, the article titles policy ('WP:TITLE'), and similar policy and guideline pages, and to work collegiately towards a workable consensus. In particular, a rapid cycle of editing these pages to reflect one's viewpoint, then discussing the changes is disruptive and should be avoided. Instead, parties are encouraged to establish consensus on the talk page first, and then make the changes.
2. Pmanderson is indefinitely prohibited from engaging in discussions and edits relating to the Manual of Style or policy about article titles.
3. Standard discretionary sanctions are authorized for all pages related to the English Misplaced Pages Manual of Style and article titles policy, broadly construed.
4. Born2cycle is warned that his contributions to discussion must reflect a better receptiveness to compromise and a higher tolerance for the views of other editors.

MOS:CAPS

Regarding Misplaced Pages talk:Manual of Style/Capital letters/Archive 6#Proper names section I would like a place name section. Recently meridians have been separated by few users from the WP style place naming and have been downcased, even by citing MOS:CAPS, which seems wrong. A place name section could fix that.

This is to let you know that an ongoing poll is taking place to move Burma to Myanmar. I know this happened just recently but no administrator would close these frequent rm's down, so here we go again.

Formal mediation has been requested

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Mexican-American War". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 22 November 2012.

Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.
Message delivered by MediationBot (talk) on behalf of the Mediation Committee. 02:41, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

Request for mediation rejected

The request for formal mediation concerning Mexican-American War, to which you were listed as a party, has been declined. To read an explanation by the Mediation Committee for the rejection of this request, see the mediation request page, which will be deleted by an administrator after a reasonable time. Please direct questions relating to this request to the Chairman of the Committee, or to the mailing list. For more information on forms of dispute resolution, other than formal mediation, that are available, see Misplaced Pages:Dispute resolution.

ArbCom elections are now open!

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 Misplaced Pages 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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:32, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

Sorry to see that you are gone.

Hi, I've been around WP for a long time, but never really gotten into the thick of things. The last week or so I've realized how completely FUBAR the WP:V policy is. I'd read it hundreds of times, but never really grokked its Orwellian nature until lately, when I've seen how it is used as a force for evil. So I've been buried in old talk page threads ... I can't tear my eyes away -- it's like watching a massive train wreck. this was the most sensible comment I've read in a while. Sorry to see that you're gone. Not too surprised, though.
