Gelus

Hi! "Gelus" is a modern transliteration of the god's name, which was historically rendered in English as "Gelos". If you do a Books search under "Gelos" you'll find tons of references specifically discussing Gelos as a god, including Apuleius, Plutarch, and others. I suppose we could move the Gelus article to Gelos (Greek god) (there's already a Gelos, a commune in France), but we might instead want to hatnote Gelos to direct anyone looking for the god to Gelus. What do you think? --NellieBly (talk) 23:48, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of List of wasei-eigo

The article List of wasei-eigo has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Article is made redundant by List of gairaigo and wasei-eigo terms and wikt:Category:Wasei_eigo.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

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.
