Thanks for catching that spelling error. I think in the future you should be less worried about conflicts of interest in editing your school's article unless you are dealing with controversial subjects, like if you have a protest on campus and students get arrested, or there's a crime wave, or some faculty member starts battering students; then you should probably ask on WP:COIN for someone else to do it. But for non-controversial subjects concerning the school, well, you can still ask on WP:COIN if you want to, but I am pretty sure they will agree with me that there are unlikely to be any possible conflicts as long as you keep citing your sources and follow the WP:5P rules. 67.6.163.68 (talk) 14:55, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm happy to do this in the future- my concern was primarily with being upfront about my role following WP:PAY, so it would be clear that any updates I proposed would be in good faith.

Thanks,

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

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.
