Wikipedia policy

Before reverting changes without discussion, please read the Wikipedia policy I link to in the edit summary. --Tenebrae 15:31, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Again, you're violating policy. There is a consensus discussion going on here, and several editors are indicating these are not appropriate links. Until this discussion finishes, do not re-add disputed links. That's not the way Wikipedia works. Please note in particular that consensus was reached against a similar Marvel Comics template here. Unilaterally going against consensus can be considered vandalism. --Tenebrae 15:19, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally, please read WP:EL#Links normally to be avoided. That's the page about Eternal links, and not sources, and it states the policy against linking to open wikis except in narrow, consensus-agreed-upon circumstances. User:217.129.169.136 cannot, personally, by herself, decide that any particular outside open wiki meets the high criteria stated there. --Tenebrae 15:50, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the discussion is about the appropriateness of those links. If the links are appropriate, a template is appropriate. We are not to link to an open wiki, per WP:EL and elsewhere, without a consensus. Try to imagine if someone came up with, say, a "woman of DC" wiki that was low on information but had lots of cheesecakey images. A lot of fans might like that. But without a consensus, no one editor can decide to put links to that wiki through WPC. I'm sure you can see why we need a consensus.

A discussion started today at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Comics. Come join in. --Tenebrae 22:22, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Because I was cleaning up dozens of pages and instituting a consensus discussion, and so missed those two links. I'm not sure that my overlooking two links is worth getting excited over. --Tenebrae 19:39, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

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.
