United Ireland
[edit]I happened upon the United Ireland article and noticed you added two sections related to support for a united Ireland from the United States. I removed these sections because they had two major problems. The first is this that prose is copyrighted, and in some places copied verbatim . The second, and perhaps even more problematic (because prose can be corrected) is the source was an opinion piece, which was not attributed as such. And even if it were attributed, it is doubtful that the author is noteworthy enough for their opinion to be of any consequence. Which Hazel? (talk) 10:55, 22 November 2015 (UTC)
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.
