Whale plane please do not change our edits at this time

Hello , i am the systems admin at the American Consulate General in Thessaloniki Greece. Some information was posted by us today Sep 18 2007 on Wikipedia, but there were a few errors in the text, so we decided to delete most of the text and repost at at another time. I noticed that you unedited our edit in good faith - but please do not proceed with this action again at this time. We only want one paragraph to be posted at this time. Thanks. If you would like to contact me vassaloscg@state.gov or 00302310242905 extension 3119. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.74.65.73 (talk) 19:34, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for the explanation. Whale plane 20:36, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Sprague Grayden

Your violation of WP:IUP on Sprague Grayden has been reverted. Please note that we are not permitted to use images to depict living people unless they are freely licensed. --Yamla (talk) 17:05, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Then the picture on Heather Lisinski is a violation too then? Or is there some kind of weird logic I don't get? Whale plane (talk) 17:13, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

An exciting opportunity to get involved!

As a member of the Aviation WikiProject or one of its subprojects, you may be interested in testing your skills in the Aviation Contest! I created this contest, not to pit editor against editor, but to promote article improvement and project participation and camraderie. Hopefully you will agree with its usefulness. Sign up here, read up on the rules here, and discuss the contest here. The first round of the contest may not start until September 1st-unless a large number of editors signup and are ready to compete immediately! Since this contest is just beginning, please give feedback here, or let me know what you think on my talkpage. - Trevor MacInnis ^contribs 06:04, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

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.
