Posting to talk pages

I noticed that, when posting to Talk:Gilligan's Island, you manually created the heading at the wrong level (H1, using single equals signs). It may not look wrong initially, but this will mess up the talk page's table of contents when others add comments using the correct form. The best way to avoid this is to use the "Post a comment" link (the "+" tab at the top each talk page, next to "edit this page"). This provides a input box for a "subject/headline", which is automatically set at the correct level, and eliminates the need to add an edit summary when creating a new topic. Thank you for your cooperation. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 12:20, 4 April 2006 (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.
