Osteopathic medicine in the United States

Please review WP:MOS. I'm going to have to revert many of your edits. OrangeMarlin ^{Talk• Contributions} 05:45, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

As I understand it overall, the WIKI MOS requires that there be consistancy within an article, not necessarily consistancy across Wikipedia. To my knowledge, I have footnoted and original sourced everything. I did have trouble with dealing with the fact that the museum requires paid access to view the early copies of the Journal of Osteopathy - because of that, I linked to the museum login page and placed the direct link on Wiki as well. If you can elighten me about that or any other issue you find objectionable specifically - I'd sure appreciate it. Will be happy to make the changes. DrATStill (talk) 06:50, 9 May 2011 (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.
