Jessica Craig

Regarding Jessica Craig, do you have any verifiable references for it? Based on http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/gloucestershire/2991886.stm, it seems that this rumor has been quashed. Tlesher 18:11, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

It's quite well circulated. Google "Jecca Craig".

"Well-circulated" is not the same as "having verifiable references". If you can find reputable, non-tabloid sources that support the assertions in the article, then please add them. The only sources I could find that weren't just repeating the official denial were weblogs and gossip columns, but I only looked for a few minutes Tlesher 03:09, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Pauline Christianity, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Waggers 13:42, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

The whole article is without a reliable source.

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.
