Speedy deletion of Four Major Forces

A tag has been placed on Four Major Forces, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you. flaminglawyer 05:10, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

The Monkees

Hi. Please come to Talk:The Monkees and discuss what you are doing to that article; much of it is wrong. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 04:12, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

when you respond to a person on a discussion page, type below that other person's message and don't forget to sign your message by simply typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end (which automatically generates your username and a timestamp). Please do not do stuff like this, as it makes it look like you're altering another person's comments, which is generally not allowed here.

Now please try and discuss which changes you would like to see happen on Talk:The Monkees, as that is much better than going through the article and making drastic changes which may not be making the article better. Thank you, –MuZemike 04:12, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

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.
