February 2009 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --aktsu (t / c) 01:15, 5 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hi! Wikipedia:External links is the official Wikipedia guideline on external links and explains stuff better than I can, but the short answer to your question is "no". If there's information in the interview that is appropriate for inclusion in the article, you should instead put that information in the article and use <ref> and a </ref> tags to indicate that the interview is the source by putting the link between the two tags. Wikipedia:Citing sources has more information on how to correctly cite such sources. Hope this is somewhat helpful and just ask if you need any help. Cheers, --aktsu (t / c) 20:11, 18 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

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.
