Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we must insist that you assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not on Talk:2010s. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. ╟─ Treasury Tag ►  sheriff  ─╢ 12:47, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

Canvassing
Hi, just to let you know that edits like this could be viewed as borderline canvassing; if you could avoid such things in future, or balance them, as per that policy, that would be good. Thanks in advance. ╟─ Treasury Tag ►  draftsman  ─╢ 20:00, 12 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi again! You are being ridiculous. Thank you! --Jmk (talk) 20:13, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * You may also need to read WP:CIV. Thanks in advance. ╟─ Treasury Tag ►  Captain-Regent  ─╢ 20:15, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * You may also need to read it. Thanks! And have a nice day! --Jmk (talk) 20:18, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I will be delighted to re-read it, just as soon as you link to an incivil comment that I have made. ╟─ Treasury Tag ►  constabulary  ─╢ 20:39, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * "Moaning", for example, is not a particularly civil way to call other people's attempts to discuss issues. In fact, your tone in the whole "2010s" discussion has been unnecessarily aggressive, and not a particularly shining example of civility. Of course, you can choose not to see anything incivil in anything you write. That cannot be helped from outside, I'm afraid. Thank you for views, they have been noted. --Jmk (talk) 20:55, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Given that you seem to think, "Hi again! You are being ridiculous. Thank you!" is a comment appropriate to Wikipedia, I am disinclined to treat your comments about my attitude with the gravity I might had they come from someone else! ╟─ Treasury Tag ►  CANUKUS  ─╢ 21:10, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, your insinuation that informing one user, in a neutral way, of a discussion that they probably are interested in, might be "borderline canvassing" is, well, quite funny. Perhaps you should spend more time discussing the actual issues and less time trying to invent accusations to put on people's talk pages. --Jmk (talk) 21:17, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

Hippocamelus photograph
I understand that the place where the photograph was taken is in Peru (in the Pampa Galeras National Reserve), or Putre in northern Chile, near the border with Peru, both in full Hippocamelus antisensis distribution, and thousands of miles north of the closest Hippocamelus bisulcus. The arid habitats can be observed, the grayish color of the coat, the slimmer shape of your body, the antlers split from the crown, etc. Hug.CHUCAO (talk) 22:16, 21 December 2010 (UTC)


 * I see. Indeed, the person who took the photo says it was "taken near Putre in Chile" (I did not notice this). Looking at where Putre is makes the bisulcus claim rather surprising! Perhaps you could mention these observations on the talk page of the file (File talk:Huemul.jpg, or even better the Commons talk page commons:File talk:Huemul.jpg)? --Jmk (talk) 23:55, 21 December 2010 (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.
