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.

Source templates and ref punctuation
Rather than just using the url, please put your references in the correct template, explained in WP:CIT. Also, the punctuation goes before a reference, such as sentence ends. explained in WP:REFPUNCT. --Zefr (talk) 16:04, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

February 2018
Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Black Sabbath, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 06:27, 13 February 2018 (UTC)

Draft:Bam Bam (Seattle band)
If you need further help with the article, rather than send me a roundabout message through Scott you can either put a message on User talk:Jmabel or respond here. If you do the latter (probably the best choice, to keep discussion in one place), please use  . If you do that (and use the four tildes to add your name and date as a signature), I'll get a notification.

Just so you know: I'm not terribly active on en-wiki -- my "home wiki" is Commons -- so I don't maintain a watchlist here, but I should get notifications for any pings. - Jmabel &#124; Talk 13:35, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Also, see Draft talk:Bam Bam (Seattle band): you will want to do a disclosure there comparable to the one I did. - Jmabel &#124; Talk 13:45, 6 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the help, Joe. When I do the disclosure, do I just write it under yours, or do I need to add a separate disclosure heading?   Mabewa (talk) 07:56, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
 * It's fine to write it under mine. - Jmabel &#124; Talk 14:11, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

I imagine you already know about this, but you will certainly want to mention it (with citation) because it will clinch any questions about notability. - Jmabel &#124; Talk 14:14, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
