[Proxy voting|proxy votes] do I add the redirect on page Proxy voting?

I'm sorry... are you asking how to add the redirect, or are you asking if you should create a redirect? If you're asking how, visit this link and it will explain. If you are asking whether you should, it looks to me like it would make sense. Hope that helps. Also, wikilinks are contained within pairs of square brackets; you want to use [[Proxy voting|Proxy votes]] (which gives Proxy votes) next time, not [Proxy voting|proxy votes]. Also, please don't forget to sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) I've also added a bunch of links below that should help you with your future editing. Cheers! roux ] [x] 05:33, 24 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Iran: An Unlikely Treasure Chest Of Funk - by Egon


Hava Nagila

Artist: Dia Prometido

Album: Hava Nagila

Having grown up in a household that frowned on TV (we didn't have one until I was 13) and reveled in Kurosawa revivals at New Haven's Crown Cinemas, I took great pleasure in Woody Allen films. I went to my uncle's house to watch Allen's movies on VHS tapes; I even got my parents hooked. I became a great fan of Hebrew folk fare and couldn't pass up the opportunity to buy this funky version of "Hava Nagila" when I heard it. It was released by Spaniard nationals living in pre-revolution Tehran. The album also contains a mind-expanding version of Simon & Garfunkel's "The Sounds of Silence" played with a tar (a type of lute) on lead.

Sensory Processing Disorder

edit

Thanks for your editing! I see what you did, making the examples shorter and cleared. Is that the POV change in the second paragraph? I am not from an English speaking country and I struggle with it, although that paragraph you edited was not mine. Question, you changed from "child refuses to wear socks" to "finds socks uncomfortable". In SPD, when over responsivity is present, the sensations go neurologically way beyond mere comfort. Do you think there is another way as short and clear as that but that expresses a higher degree of feeling? In Spanish it would be something around severely irritant (but I know irritant in English refers more to the skin's reaction, while in Spanish it means a degree or two more over uncomfortable) Chibs007 (talk) 05:21, 26 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of faculty members at the Institute for Advanced Study, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Peter Goddard. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

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.
