What can you put here?

Check out my user page: moderately simple. Check out Stollery's page! See how cool you can make yours? You don't have to put anything here at all, but it would be a shame not to, especially if you find yourself enjoying being a Wikipedian. By all means, whether you decide to have anything here or not, you have control over it, so you can even blank out this message if you so choose.

I hope you stay here, and happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony 17:53, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits, such as those you made to Lost (TV series), are considered vandalism. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the work of others. Thank you. -- PKtm 14:52, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

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 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.
