Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:19, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Why...
Are you responding to discussions which are four years old on the TLA/ARGH page? → ROUX   ₪  18:38, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Why does it matter? They're discussions.  I was just adding to the consensus.  And if you might have noticed, I made an edit which I was justifying.  Is it not right to add something to a talk page when you make an edit?  Rifter0x0000 (talk)
 * Just a general Wikipedia convention. That talkpage really needs to be archived anyway. → ROUX   ₪  18:52, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree that it's generally considered bad netiquette to go resurrecting old threads willy nilly. I maybe should have thought more about whether I was just piping in or not, given that.  But I did kind of feel that what I said needed saying.  Thanks for the comment though.

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.
