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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:31, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Lagrange templates
I realize you haven't contributed recently but I wanted to bring something to your attention.
This discussion: Talk:Lagrangian_point#Ln_or_Ln_.3F Asked the reasonable question about the standardized format for Lagrange points. I note that the article uses both formats and agree with the comments that we certainly should not have an inconsistency. I haven't fully looked into it but one editor suggests that the scepter script is not the way to go. I believe the subscripts were the result of templates created by you. I hope you can weigh in if you are sure that subscripts are the way to go. If not I think it would make sense to edit the template to change to the other format.--S Philbrick(Talk) 14:39, 15 December 2015 (UTC)

Sunday June 5: Women in Jewish History Edit-a-thon
| Sunday June 5, 12-5pm: Women in Jewish History Edit-a-thon | |

  Join us for a full Sunday of social Wikipedia editing at the Center for Jewish History (drop-in any time!), during which we will create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles pertaining to Women in Jewish History. All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required. Expanding coverage of Jewish women on Wikipedia makes these women and their creations discoverable, addresses the gender bias on Wikipedia in a positive way, and works to correct imbalances archival collecting practice and institutional projects that have historically silenced women's narratives. A training session on editing Wikipedia will be held at 12:30 pm. Experienced Wikipedians will be on-hand to assist throughout the day. Please bring your laptop and power cord; we will have library resources, WiFi, and a list of suggested topics on hand. Light refreshments will be provided. Make edits! Ask questions! Be bold!
Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends and colleagues! --Pharos (talk) 15:01, 1 June 2016 (UTC) P.S. Stay tuned / sign up early for our June 15 WikiWednesday and other upcoming events. | |
