Edits to New York City[edit]

Hi, just to let you know, I've reverted your edit to New York City that removed all of the metric units from the article. As the English Wikipedia has users from all over the world, having the metric units there is helpful to non-Americans who want to read about the city.

Hi. Please stop removing metric units. Wikipedia is a global website and not everyone can understand American units. This is not helpful. Thanks. ~A H 1^(TCU) 22:07, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Measurements and edits[edit]

Your edit history consists almost entirely of removing metric measurements and other formatting from articles. As Wikipedia is intended for use around the world, these measurements are in both Imperial and metric units. Please do not remove them again. Further such edits will be treated as vandalism.

Your email re metric measurements[edit]

I am in receipt of your recent email questioning the inclusion of metric measurements in articles. While I understand that removing these measurements may make it easier for you to read the article, the inclusion of both measurements allows readers from around the world to see measurements in units that they are familiar with. This policy is dictated in WP:MOS#Units of measurement, which states that "Conversions to and from metric and imperial/US units should generally be provided", and none of the articles in question meet the two exceptions noted. I would suggest that you review this policy and respect the consensus that led to its development. Alansohn (talk) 03:50, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

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.
