You may want to take a look at Wikipedia:Rollback feature to ensure that you don't use rollback when you shouldn't. Brief summary: Only use rollback to revert blatant vandalism. Useight (talk) 23:55, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the revert on the Food chemistry article. I greatly appreciated it. Chris (talk) 23:15, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, someone asked you a question on your userpage, don't know if you noticed it or not. Useight (talk) 23:32, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, your userpage says, "Can we have a discussion on the List of WAZA member zoos and aquariums." Sounds like a question. You did get a thanks, though, on your talk page, I noticed. Useight (talk) 23:39, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, looks like you removed it a minute ago. Useight (talk) 23:39, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you unblank this page? The blanking was performed by the page's only significant author, which should be taken to be a request for page deletion. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 12:23, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bassbone, you're starting to get into the policy backbone of Wikipedia instead of just reverting vandalism. The policy spoken of by WikiDan can be found at Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion. Speedy deletion criteria G7 (General #7) is for page blankings done by the only (significant) contributor. I can explain it further at work. Useight (talk) 20:53, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

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.
