Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot’s recommendations. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information in the consent information sheet.
We have added information about the opportunity to make substantial valuable contributions to an article using a Low/Medium/High scale which goes from Low to High . The score is calculated by combining an article's readership and quality.
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Misplaced Pages better — thanks for helping!
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 02:23, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

Protecting a proposal
A proposal is not a policy page, nor an article. And indeed, it is considered disruptive to edit a proposal during an active straw poll (XFD is one example, see also some discussions concerning the recent Arbcom election as well.)
So protection in this case was merely "preventative, not punitive".
You're welcome to your opinion, but that in itself is all it is.
Incidentally, no worries, I'll just see about placing any future proposals in user space so that such nonsense will be avoided in the future. Shrugs.
Happy editing. - jc37 21:04, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
