A Threat To Society

[edit]

Those who take part in this mess are they themselves a threat to society. Any site that tells a man how to kill himself is a traitor. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Media Tycoon 1 (talkcontribs) 18:33, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Differences

[edit]

Hi Summeree
While looking at the edit history of the 'Riverine Flotilla of the Polish Navy', I noticed you had summarized the changing of 'defence' to 'defense' as a 'spelling correction'. I can assure you that it is not - a spelling correction that is. 'Defence' is a British English word, 'defense' is the American English version.

There are many other differences in spelling, pronunciation and use, To give three very brief examples: Colour/color, missile/missile (pronounced missel in the US) and skirting board/base board. Indeed, elsewhere on Wikipedia there are a whole host of articles on anomalies in the English language - logical it is not. But then you probably already knew that before your edit of October, 2007. I'm still finding differences. I think it was Oscar Wilde (who was Irish), who once said: "America and Britain, two countries separated by a common language".

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.
