Please stop. If you continue to vandalise Wikipedia, as you did to Nevada, Rhode Island, Alaska, etc, you will be blocked.

I don't know who threatened to block me, but the recent edits I made to several U.S. state pages with regard to official languages were not acts of vandalism, but attempts to bring those pages in line with information on the status of English as an official language in those states.

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.

Links to New York edit

Hi, regarding your edits to List of USCAA institutions, there is a large scale maintenance task underway per consensus in the discussion at Talk:New York#Proposed action to resolve incorrect incoming links. We are piping intentional links to the state of New York through "New York (state)" in order to uncover thousands of links intended to point to other targets, primarily New York City, but also including New York magazine, the colonial Province of New York, and various individual institutions. Through this project, we have checked over 60,000 incoming links to New York, and have fixed over 12,000 errors. You can help by reverting your edits to List of USCAA institutions, and otherwise fixing links to New York by either piping through "New York (state)", or directing them to their intended target if it is something other than the state. Cheers! bd2412 T 17:30, 2 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
