ArbCom 2022 Elections voter message
 Hello! Voting in the 2022 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on. 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 2022 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 to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:55, 29 November 2022 (UTC)

Redirects don't need to be fixed
Hi, Blueskiesdry. Regarding edits like this, please be aware that redirects do not need to be "fixed". Sometimes there's things we can learn from how often an adjectival phrase like free-content is used rather than the noun phrase free content, and meanwhile there's no real benefit in changing from one to the other. At best it's a cosmetic edit, which are discouraged. Let me know if you have any questions. Happy New Year and happy editing. -- Tamzin  &#91;cetacean needed&#93; (they&#124;xe&#124;she) 02:13, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * When I "fixed" the redirect, it didn’t even work apparently. It still said it redirected from free-content. Is there a reason for this? blueskiesdry …  (cloudy contribs…)  15:41, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Could you explain what you mean by it not working? If it took you to Free content but with the note "Redirected from ", that is the redirect working as intended. -- Tamzin  &#91;cetacean needed&#93; (they&#124;xe&#124;she) 22:05, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
 * When I piped the link it still redirected even though I know I got the title right. Blueskiesdry (talk) 22:11, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
 * That may have been a caching issue. (I.e., when you saved the page, it actually gave you the old version from before you made the edit.) It happens sometimes. -- Tamzin  &#91;cetacean needed&#93; (they&#124;xe&#124;she) 01:02, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Ah, OK. I got incredibly confused when that happened and was about to make a Teahouse post about it but it got reverted before I could. Blueskiesdry (talk) 01:03, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Teahouse
Hello, Try not to respond in a way unrelated to helping the newcomers, it can distract from the point. (not a big deal) Thanks, Geardona (talk to me?) 19:45, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
