Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Allora & Calzadilla. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 16:59, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

Please stop continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Allora & Calzadilla, without resolving the problem that the template refers to. This may be considered disruptive editing. Further edits of this type may result in your account being blocked from editing. Drmies (talk) 17:02, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

• The tags are valid, since the sourcing in the article is wholly inadequate. You may discuss on talk page. See WP:RS, for instance. Drmies (talk) 17:03, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
  • You should really, really, stop removing those tags. And you should really consider leaving an edit summary explaining what you're doing--you gave no reason whatsoever for removing the advert tag. Drmies (talk) 22:32, 20 August 2015 (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.
