{{helpme}}How do I contact Beth in Canada for further information on WHGKingston and Kingsford (Varnesavant (talk) 19:42, 27 April 2008 (UTC)).[reply]

I'm sorry, but I don't think we're able to help you with that. Wikipedia is not a social site, so we don't hold contact information for people. If you know the Wikipedia username of this person, you may be able to email them using the "Email this user" link in the left sidebar when viewing their userpage.

Re: Kingston

To be honest, I'm not at all sure what articles you're talking about. I haven't made any substantial content contributions in a while, and those names aren't ringing any bells with me. If I have made any edits to those articles, it was likely to remove vandalism or something. I live in the United States, and don't know anyone living in Canada. You might try asking someone in Category:Canadian Wikipedians, or a member of Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada. Sorry I can't be of more help. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 18:25, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Artemas Martin

To avoid possible copyright worries in future, I suggest that you add to the talk page of the article something like:

Although similar material appears on www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Obits2/Martin_AMM_biography.html, this article is not sourced from that web-site but from the book cited, which is in the public domain.

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.
