There are several ways of requesting a change of username. Not many requests are visible on enwiki. Hope that helps, Cabayi (talk) 13:47, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

ArbCom 2024 Elections voter message

Hello! Voting in the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 2 December 2024. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority 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 in the 2024 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:10, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

-The changes were made a little while ago. They still exist as one-item categories, but at least they are named properly. The creator was blocked for one hour last evening (Aus time) because he was creating some more of them and wouldn't respond to continued requests to respond to inquiries. I wonder if there's a language barrier. [[User:Good Olfactory|Good Ol’factory]] <sup>[[User talk:Good Olfactory|(talk)]]</sup> 22:01, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

-Hope all is well. Does [[Nick Riewoldt]] deserve the ''People from Hobart'' cat?—as I just added it to his article. However, he only lived there until he was nine.

-:Okay, thanks. Nah, it's a lot colder here, but I was surprised by the low minimums for Perth. Canberra only reached seven yesterday, Sydney 12 and Brisbane 16. Horribly cold here, too; didn't even reach double figures.

-Annoying how articles just say: "born in Tasmania", or something along those lines, without giving a specific place. I'm sure there's plenty more people to add the ''People from Launceston'' cat. Tas articles are messes!

-I've basically moved everything inthe Category:Gold mines in Australia into new state sub-categorties. I had a quick look at every article as to whether it actually warrants being in a gold mine category but I havn't done any proper reasearch into it. Thats for a later date. Amazingly, we don't have an article on a single gold mine in Victoria. Lot's of work still to be done! [[User:Calistemon|Calistemon]] ([[User talk:Calistemon|talk]]) 21:47, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
