Your edit to Christopher Gardner edit

Your recent edit to Christopher Gardner (diff) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles. If the bot reverted a legitimate edit, please accept my humble creator's apologies – if you bring it to the attention of the bot's owner, we may be able to improve its behavior.

Please don't move articles by cutting and pasting. That loses the edit history and is a copyright violation of the GFDL. Use the "move" function. User:Zoe|(talk) 00:58, 29 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
It's only available to people who have had an account for four days. Have you been here that long? User:Zoe|(talk) 01:04, 29 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
In the meantime, you can list it at Wikipedia:Requested moves. User:Zoe|(talk) 01:05, 29 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

I don't think anybody will think you are a vandal for good faith attempts at editing. Like I said, you can list it at Requested moves, or just wait a couple of days until your User id "ripens" enough to get the Move link automatically added to your links.

Chris Gardner article edit

Apparently you and I are PR agents of Gardner, according to some user over at Talk:Chris Gardner... I'd appreciate if you could reply to them at the Talk page. — Wackymacs 21:23, 31 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Wait for the outcome of GAC, and then you can prepare the article for a more difficult procedure, WP:FAC.--Yannismarou 17:46, 22 January 2007 (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.
