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.

Zebibytes and ZFS
Hello. Can you double check your source for ZFS volume size limit please? The Zettabyte page says (and cites the source) it's a quadrillion times higher. Thanks. --Dee Earley (talk) 17:26, 17 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Hi, it's been a while since I edited the ZFS page. As far as I can tell, the current size displayed is correct, since $$2^{128}\approx256\cdot 10^{15}\cdot 1024^7$$. I will edit the Zebibyte page accordingly. Myconix (talk) 17:38, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

Progressivism edits
Hi. I removed your addition of "...linked to eugenics" from Progressivism because it was cited poorly, though I don't object to including a description of the link between early progressive movement and eugenics itself (the article already elaborated on some of these details in the body). All of the sources you had originally included were op-eds: two were from larger news outlets which explicitly labeled the pieces as opinion/commentary (CNSNews and the Washington Post) and the other two (The Federalist, FEE) were editorials from commentary sites which do little to no journalism or historical analysis. As WP:NEWSORG states, opinion pieces are rarely reliable for statements of fact; they can be used to represent the range of viewpoints on several issues, but they are highly inappropriate for citing specific factual claims in the lead of an important article. None of this should be taken to mean that the specific claim cited was false -- indeed, many other reliable sources can demonstrate it convincingly, including the journal article you later provided. I've added some academic sources supporting (Freeden's Liberal Languages goes into a pretty lengthy description of the connection) in place of the previous ones, so ultimately this should be of little consequence unless you are particularly convinced any of the previous sources were important. — 0xf8e8 (t♥lk) 22:43, 26 November 2017 (UTC)
