If you are here about an arbitration matter, please - wherever possible - post instead on the appropriate arbitration page to keep discussion centralised.

If you post a message on this page, I'll reply here to avoid fragmenting the discussion. So add it to your watchlist.
If I leave you a message on your talk page, it will be added to my watchlist. So feel free to reply to it there instead of here.
Please sign and date your message by typing four tildes (~~~~)

I've been experiencing connectivity problems (mostly in the form of time outs) ever since a recent upgrade to improve my service. Hopefully, this will be resolved soon.

I like that you said "Yes, I agree that ArbCom's role is preventative." I thank you for the clause that permits me to add infoboxes to articles I create: there's no conflict with another user, and I am not in conflict with myself ;) However, the same is true for Andy, no? He wrote several articles since, the latest Mark Williams-Thomas. There's no other reason for that article not to have an infobox but his restriction, which I fail to see as "preventive". I am looking for an honest way to have my suggestion moved from the talk to the article. Could we install a page where let's say two or three arbs approve that the addition is no danger for Wikipedia? Ideas welcome, - and here's the optimistic music, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:38, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
