Vandalism[edit]

Thanks for removing vandalism from the citrus page, unfortunately the vandal also deleted some stuff. To remove the vandalism, go to "history", then look at the version one before the vandalism, then go into "Edit this page". It will warn you that you're editing an old version, but don't worry. Then save that, and write "reverting vandalism" in the Edit summary. Hope this helps. --DannyWilde 03:00, 25 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Racial Memory - Jungian eg[edit]

Hi. Thanks for trying to fix that Jungian example on the Racial Memory page. It's still not clear to me why the fear of heights would qualify as a racial memory instead of an instinct or something learned & extrapolated from the individual's experience (if falling from a few feet can hurt, falling from a greater height could hurt even more?). I'm still trying to think of a better example, but this isn't really my area. RJCraig 12:39, 1 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Long Island Incident[edit]

This is not a "work of fiction," it's based on a real-life event and its impact on real-life people. I'm curious why you added the template you did. Thank you. ConoscoTutto 16:32, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A film is NOT a work of fiction if it's based on a true incident and/or a real-life person. Furthermore, how can there be separate discussions of the film and the incident itself if the film is ABOUT the incident? How could one remove all references to the incident if the incident is the basis of the film? My purpose in writing the article was NOT mainly to address the facts of the incident itself, as they already are described in another Wikipedia article. My article was intended to be about the film based on the event. Are you suggesting biographical films such as Ray or Ali or factual films such as All the President's Men are works of fiction? If so, I'm sorry, but I think you're mistaken. ConoscoTutto 14:14, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

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.
