True-believer syndrome

Hi; Please be sure and include the references to support the material you added to the article. I'm happy to help if you have any questions about citation style or mechanics. Thanks, Tom Harrison ^Talk 18:19, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the additions do need references. More and more I'm trying to reference practically everything. Bubba73 (talk), 18:44, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My remark probably sounds more like a rebuke than I intended. Wikipedia as a whole needs to work on citations and references, like Bubba73 says. Your edit was fine; it touched on some themes I know from conspiracy theory, and could maybe be sourced to Sagan's The Demon-Haunted World, though I don't know if he uses that terminology. Some other possibilities are at google print. Thanks, and welcome. Tom Harrison ^Talk 20:20, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Poetry

I don't really follow those pages myself, so I guess I have no opinion. Many editors prefer as a rule to have anything more than brief excerpts in Wikisource. I would say give it a try, see what people think, and be flexible. Tom Harrison ^Talk 20:40, 7 April 2006 (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.
