Hi Sam, you have done a good job with this article but there is still one big issue with it which is the lack of proper referencing. You obviously have sources you are working from as you keep adding information and external links, but it would be great if you could work on getting footnotes to those sources into the article to back up the statements/claims made. If you need more info on how to do this, have a look at WP:REFB, or if you'd like some help, let me know. Thanks, Melcous (talk) 14:05, 15 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

edit

Hello, SamLippman. Voting in the 2016 Arbitration Committee elections is open from Monday, 00:00, 21 November through Sunday, 23:59, 4 December to all unblocked users who have registered an account before Wednesday, 00:00, 28 October 2016 and have made at least 150 mainspace edits before Sunday, 00:00, 1 November 2016.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority 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 in the 2016 election, please review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 22:08, 21 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
