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.

WP:CITE does not require the use of cite templates. They are merely an option. I do not prefer them, because they make the encyclopedia more difficult to access for many readers and users (except that I find the book cites helpful, when book sources are collected at the bottom of articles). See also WP:CITEVAR. Best regards, -- Ssilvers (talk) 06:26, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
- I didn't realize they make it more difficult - thanks for the guidance on that! What is the problem they introduce, and how is it best solved? I'm happy to adopt a better practice going forward, if there is a best one to adopt. Fanyavizuri (talk) 21:44, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for the message. We can keep the conversation together here. The problem is that they introduce code that some users will be uncomfortable using, and they make the citations harder to read on the edit screen because the information is buried in the code. To solve it, cites can simply be entered manually, giving the info. required by WP:CITE: Author, url, title, publisher, date, and, if needed, an accessdate. Just put brackets around the url and title, like so: <ref>Ryburn, Stacy. [http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/local/solar-plane-lands-at-tulsa-international-airport/article_e6b25fc8-9704-51d2-97d5-de8b2fd6339c.html "Solar plane lands at Tulsa International Airport"], ''Tulsa World'', 12 May 2016</ref> This will end up looking like footnote 82 in the Solar Impulse article. In addition, if a book cite is given at the bottom of an article, then the inline cites to pages in that book can be shortform cites. For example, in the article Arthur Sullivan, a book by Michael Ainger is cited in the "Sources" section near the bottom. Therefore in the body of the article, shortform cites might look like this: <ref>Ainger (2002), pp. 25–27</ref> See also WP:CITEVAR, which says, basically, that if a citation format is already in use for an article, try to use the same format for additional cites. -- Ssilvers (talk) 06:32, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for the detailed explanation! I still like some of the automation offered by the template, but this conversation leaves me more inclined to use this direct citation method in the future. Fanyavizuri (talk) 10:52, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Universal Hydrogen
[edit]Hello Fanyavizuri,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Universal Hydrogen for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!
