May 1st - Workers' Fight Federation

Hi Jdlyall. Thanks for your note about Batay Ouvriye. I created the article as part of a larger project with WikiProject Organized Labour to start articles about all the major unions/labour organizations around the world - so I don't have any particular expertise concerning Batay Ouvriye. The reason I named it as the Workers' Fight Federation is simply because that is the translation in the source I used: Trade Unions of the World published by the International Centre for Trade Union Rights. I'm not opposed to changing the name if Struggle is a better translation than fight, but I would also be interested in knowing how the organization itself has translated their name. Sometimes the translation is not the most accurate, but is nonetheless the official translation. Cheers. --Bookandcoffee 17:19, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

‘♯’ v. ‘#’

FWIW: The character ‘♯’ is different from ‘#’, though their glyphs are very similar. And, on Wikipedia, “F#” is a different article from “F♯”.

But let me hasten to add my thanks for your catching the error at “Richter tuning”. Even with the slight misdirection, your edit was much better than leaving the thing just-plain wrong. —12.72.70.234 (talk) 12:30, 9 June 2009 (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.
