General intelligence factor

Don't turn this into an edit war. Please explain your wikilinking of The g Factor: General Intelligence and Its Implications, in contradiction to Misplaced Pages standards for links to an article which do not add content or meaning. Do you honestly think there will ever be a Misplaced Pages article with that title? And please start using appropriate edit summaries. Thank you. Ward3001 16:09, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

I reverted my deletion after finding a new article for the wikilink. What I find ironic and even mystifying, is that you wrote an essay for Misplaced Pages on resolving conflict, yet you decided to deal with this issue by making a personal attack ("grumpy person") rather than providing adequate edit summaries which could have avoided the confusion in the first place. Ward3001 17:12, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Come on Ward; you were being grumpy, and I called you on it. Now that I've created the article, I don't anticipate further conflict. Sdedeo (tips) 17:17, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Flagged revs

Thanks for your nice note. I hope the idea is dead, but I'm afraid that the next Seigenthaler-style hoohah will push it through. Anyway, nice to know that somebody besides Larry Sanger reads the blog! Casey Abell 19:50, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:2005riot shooting.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:2005riot shooting.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

Using one of the templates at Misplaced Pages:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Misplaced Pages policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

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 Misplaced Pages 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.
