HR 5122

Hello; I noticed you happen to be editing the article on HR 5122 as we speak. Since it is an omnibus defense authorization bill, providing funding for all military and defense operations, it's a little narrow to say it "replaced" anything; also, the Insurrection Act has existed since 1807, and has always trumped Posse Comitatus. The Posse Comitatus Act came about in 1878, after reconstruction; it included an explicit exemption for Constitutional authority and "Act[s] of Congress", which both the Insurrection Act and the 2007 NDAA (HR5122) are. In any case, all of the Insurrection Act amendments were repealed in 2008, four months ago. Even when the 2006 amendments were in effect, they still had very specific conditions that must have been met. It's a common misconception that the amendments allowed the President to arbitrarily declare martial law as a result of any "other condition" or an arbitrary "emergency". In reality, the same prerequisites for any application of the Insurrection Act must still be met, including an additional provision. Please see the description of the changes and flowchart. In any case, all of these changes have been repealed in the 2008 NDAA, and the Insurrection Act is back to exactly the way it has been for the prior two centuries. Please contact me if you have any questions. das (talk) 15:30, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Re: Tanya Hamilton article deletion

Re: your message: Looking at the deleted article, you appear to be talking about a different Tonya Hamilton. The Tonya Hamilton in the deleted article was a non-notable British model/singer/performer that was "an Internet superstar". Feel free to create a new article about the Tonya Hamilton you are referring to. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 23:00, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Carbonell Awards

Hello, CClio333, and thanks for contributing to Wikipedia!

I wanted to let you know that some editors are discussing at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Carbonell Awards whether the article Carbonell Awards should be in Wikipedia. I encourage you to comment there if you think the article should be kept in the encyclopedia.

The deletion discussion doesn't mean you did something wrong. In fact, other editors may have useful suggestions on how you can continue editing and improving Carbonell Awards, which I encourage you to do. If you have any questions, feel free to ask at the Help Desk.

Thanks again for your contributions! Toddst1 (talk) 15:39, 21 November 2011 (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.
