Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): rule: 'members\.aol\.com' .

It was a "good faith" edit -- my, you are a cranky bot. Is this any way to treat a "newby?" Just me! (talk) 08:00, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thomas Fitzpatrick

[edit]

Hi L.O.M

I have just reverted your edit to Thomas Fitzpatrick. It is a disambiguation page, and per WP:MOSDAB, on disambiguation pages only the disambiguated article should be linked. You probably weren't aware of that, and it may seem odd at first, but disambiguation pages are intended to be only a navigational aid, providing just enough info to allow the reader to find whatever they were looking for when they arrived at the ambiguous name. Excess information or other links are just a distraction from that purpose.

Hope this helps! --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 04:21, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling of Sacajawea's name of grave marker

[edit]

(Undid revision 207751127 by Philkon (talk) name - sp. issues)

Please do NOT change the spelling on the caption. I intentionally spelled it this way because that is the way it is spelling the photograph itself.

Just trying to be consistent with the title of the article. You sound a little heated about such a small issue. Bad day? Just me! (talk) 05:18, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I will take a look at the article. I just ordered a few books from the library and can begin sourcing the article later this week. I did a bit of copy editing and removed an additional POV statement on Drummond. --Robbie Giles (talk) 05:07, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your interest. Just me! (talk) 23:39, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I plan some edits to the John Williams Gunnison article to beef up the sections dealing with his life and accomplishments. Please run your eye over it to review the changes. Critiques welcome at Talk:John Williams Gunnison. I will be working on it this weekend. --Robbie Giles (talk) 17:41, 13 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

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.
