template:user fsm edit

I'm calling out a posse, to fight for freedom of choice, to fight all those who think that only their opinion's right, template:user fsm was speedy deleted by an administrator without any cause or even discussion, I'm therefore putting it up for undeletion since people have put a jihad out against opinions in userboxes. As you were one of many people using the template, I'm trying to rally you into the posse. If you think the template should be returned to active status, put in a vote at Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Userbox_debates#template:user_fsm. Janizary 04:26, 22 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Blickensderfer typewriter edit

Hello :-)

I was looking for a nice picture of a typewriter and I fell across yours on Commons (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Blickensderfer_typewriter.jpg). Unfortunately, the photo is a bit blurry, even in the higher resolution version. Perhaps it comes from the jpeg-compression? I don't know. I was wondering, do you have a better shot of this typewriter? Thanks in advance for your help,

Hikipedia edit

Hello Ian,

I've noticed that you have submitted a few nice contributions to the article about Big Four Mountain.

I am currently gathering feedback about the Hikipedia project (which includes an article about Big Four Ice Caves trail). Could you please give me some feedback about the Hikipedia site? Would you consider contributing to Hikipedia?

I know that one can add trail descriptions to a regular Wikipedia, but there are quite a few things that would be too difficult too acomplish: trail-oriented search, embedded weather forecast, voting for trail difficulty and enjoyability, trail reports, links and images of guidebooks. Additionally it is impossible to use content from Wikipedia in a leaflet or advertisment (because of "invariant sections" requirement of Gnu license).

Please let me know what you think about Hikipedia (you can use the feedback page, or reply here).

Thank you for your time,

Lukasz Anforowicz

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.
