Disambiguation link notification for January 29

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Shakespeare Theatre Association of America, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Riverside Theatre (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Landmarks

Hello, Ashamedant, and welcome to Wikipedia! I see you have been very busy already and I appreciate your efforts. However, I am puzzled by all the changes you have made to "landmarks" categories - such as changing Category:Landmarks in San Diego, California to Category:San Diego Landmark, and creating the new category Category:Riverside Landmark. Was this change discussed anywhere? It seems to be at odds with the way most such categories are done, for example Category:Landmarks in Chicago, Illinois; Category:Landmarks in San Francisco, California; etc. When making such a sweeping change in a long-established category, it really ought to be discussed somewhere and achieve community consensus. For that matter, the word "landmark" in these categories should have a lower-case L and be plural; WP:Categorization says Names of set categories should be plural. Examples: "Writers", "Villages in Poland".

Let me request that you don't create any more of these new categories, or add them to any more articles, until the community has had a chance to discuss it somewhere. I'll try to figure out the best place for that discussion. Thanks! --MelanieN (talk) 15:05, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

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.
