User talk:Oxford Dictionary

Hello, Oxford Dictionary, and welcome to Wikipedia! Your contributions are very much appreciated, but the article on Dian doesn't really belong here. See Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary. If you wrote the definitions, the article will just be moved to Wiktionary, Wikipedia's sister project. If you copied the definitions from the Oxford Dictionary or any other dictionary for that matter, you should contact me so I can replace the current template with a more appropriate one. You see, direct copying from a book is a copyright violation and therefore we cannot allow it on Wikipedia. Either way, you shouldn't worry too much about this - Wikipedia has many complex rules and it is perfectly okay to make mistakes when you're new to the project. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to drop a note at my talk page :) Regards from Slovenia, --Missmarple 09:42, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please be careful not to remove content from Wikipedia without a valid reason, which you should specify in the edit summary or on the article's talk page. Thank you. --Missmarple 10:45, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I added a category and more appropriate stub notice and the article seems OK to me now. Regards, --Missmarple 11:06, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

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.
