Please bear these points in mind while editing Misplaced Pages:

• Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
• Please use a neutral point of view when editing articles; this is possibly the most important Misplaced Pages policy.
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as: copyrighted text, advertisement messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such unreasonable information or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, and will result in your account being blocked.

The Misplaced Pages Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Misplaced Pages. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page.

Re: Why did you revert my edits?

Thanks for contacting me, I strive to be approachable, and I'm generally open to productive discussion. So. I reverted your edits at Misplaced Pages:Ownership of articles because I don't feel they improved the policy. To be a little more specific, you did sign the first edit , and while you didn't sign the second , it doesn't seem to me to improve the policy (especially bearing in mind that signing posts on talk pages, as mentioned at WP:SIGN, is an important part of how talk pages work). Hope that makes sense, let me know if you need any further clarification. Luna Santin 05:30, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Is there any way you could incoperate user talk pages on the page? It might solve alot of grief for some people.TheTruth2 05:32, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Hm? Are you sure you have the right page? The section you were editing states that users should not sign their edits to articles. Users should always sign their messages on talk pages -- the edit you were making would suggest that people should not sign their messages, as I read it. If you've been having trouble with people who don't sign their posts, you can use the {{unsigned}} template, and they should pick up on the habit -- as an example, {{unsigned|Luna Santin}} would generate something like this: —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Luna Santin (talk •

contribs) .

Long story. But Some admin stats about owenrship to user talk pages and states on that page. Read my talk page and you will understand

An Automated Message from HagermanBot

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! HagermanBot 05:34, 5 May 2007 (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 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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:10, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
