==Title Paragraph==

Hi, I would like to write up a new article as wikipedia:titleparagraphs. I'd appreciate your assistance. Title paragraphs often called 'opening' paragraphs in the literary world are very important to seize readers’ attention and encourage them to read on. Title paragraphcs need to be written in a surmising style in as few concise but detailed sentences as possible.

Notice the difference between [[Buddha|this]] article and [[Litvinenko|this]] one. A remarkable difference. Are you going to read the a whole title paragraph like that for every article you look up? Long title paragraphs deter users who are simply surfing or frantically looking for the low down of a specific subject at handm, they are also a pleasure for the serious researcher.

Unfortunately this is not a guideline. I think editors should be advised about this point and I would feel privileged to start the article. Please let me know how I could go about it. Thanks

== Concordia council ==

Dear Ian,

Not really. I'd be willing to hold a semi-active seat, perhaps with just an advisory role over a voting one.

== Alisha Pillay ==

Still, I believe Concordia should be disbanded. (not the spirit, I know).

Hey Ian,

Thanks,

Just wanted to ask you about a wiki page that was deleted about 2 years ago. The page was about an artist from Canada titled "Alisha Pillay". I would love to see this page on Wikipedia again. Her debut single "Convicted" hit Canadian radio in January 2010 and she managed to reach #38 on the Canadian Top 40 charts. She won the opportunity to have her song on Canadian radio through a competition called "Radio Active" which was thrown by Pitbull Promotions. The song was received well and managed to win over Sony Music Canada, who continued to market and promote the song. She was also featured as an emerging artist on the Billboard Canadian Update and won the "Chum Emerging Artist" award for April 2010.

Joe [[User:Computerjoe|Computerjoe]][[User talk:Computerjoe|<span style="color:red">'s talk</span>]] 22:09, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

She has collaborated with many established writers including: Alisha M'Jestie Brooks (Rihanna, Pon De Replay), James Fauntleroy (Chris Brown, Beyonce, Rihanna, Justin Timberlake and many others), Jarvis Church of the Philosopher Kings (Nelly Furtado) and many others. She has also performed with the Canada's most acclaimed producer, David Foster. She was the winner of his first singing competition in BC called "Opportunity of a lifetime"

== RE:Concordia ==

She is going to release her second single "Love Drunk" in Canada on July 12, 2010.

I'd be happy to resume an active role in the organisation if it is revived - [[User:The Giant Puffin|<font face="Franklin Gothic Book" color="orange">'''• The Giant Puffin •'''</font>]] 22:09, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

:I am just looking to re-promote civility. I would send out a newsletter to all of our members inviting them to help out. We could promote the civility cup token and barnstar to make us known more widely, and try and get an effective noticeboard for where help may be needed in maintaining civility (this could be small, and people make sugestions on the notice board and admins post).

==Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity==

Concordia is currently trying to relaunch. I, and all the members of the ex-council, wish to welcome new members to the group. We are a group who aim to promote remaining civil, in an environment where messages can easily be interpretated wrongly.

[[Image:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]]

Following a [[Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)/suspend sysop rights of inactive admins|community discussion]] in June 2011, consensus was reached to [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Procedural removal for inactive administrators|provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year]] (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in more than one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return&nbsp;if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated&nbsp;should this occur, please post to the [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard]] and the userright will be restored per the [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats#Resysopping|re-sysopping process]] (i.e. as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised, that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions, and that you have not been inactive for a three-year period of time). If you remain inactive for a three-year period of time, including the present year you have been inactive, you will need to request reinstatement at [[WP:RFA]]. This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts. <!-- Template:Inactive admin -->[[User:MadmanBot|MadmanBot]] ([[User talk:MadmanBot|talk]]) 00:30, 1 March 2016 (UTC)

==Notification of imminent suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity==

====''Help out now!''====

*Try and help people remain civil! Talk to them, and help them in any way possible. Do not be afraid to use the [[WT:CCD|talk page]].

*Give people the [[:Image:Civility_barnstar.png|Civility Barnstar]].

*Make and spread some Wikitokens so people know there are people to help if they want assistance.

*Add banners or logos to your userpage to show your support.

*'''Suggest some ideas!''' Add 'em to the [[WT:CCD|talk page]].

We are a community, so can only work though community contributions and support. It's the helping that counts.

====''Decision Making''====

The council expired one month ago, but due to the current position of the group the current council will remain until the position of the group can be assessed, and whether it would be sensible to keep Concordia going. For most decisions, however, it will be decided by all who choose to partake in discussions. I am trying to relaunch because of the vast amounts of new members we have received, demonstrating that the aims are supported.

== OLD TIMES ==

If you wish to opt of of further talk-page communications, just let us know [[Wikipedia:Concordia/Do Not Spam|here]].

We had some fun, didn't we Ian? Shame that it looks like you gave up on the Wikipedia. You loved it so. [[User:The Vestiges of Cicero Dog|The Vestiges of Cicero Dog]] ([[User talk:The Vestiges of Cicero Dog|talk]]) 22:35, 1 December 2016 (UTC)

== ArbCom 2017 election voter message ==

==[[User:Sussexman]]==

{{Ivmbox|Hello, Ian13. Voting in the '''[[WP:ACE2017|2017 Arbitration Committee elections]]''' is now open until 23.59 on Sunday, 10 December. All users who registered an account before Saturday, 28 October 2017, made at least 150 mainspace edits before Wednesday, 1 November 2017 and are not currently blocked are eligible to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

Thank you for your comment on this user's Talk page, but I cannot see where he personally issued a legal action or why he personally would have done so? [[User:Chelsea Tory|Chelsea Tory]] 20:44, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

:Well, as far as I was aware, this was the whole reason for blocking, and from what I gathered, such a notice was not in dispute. [[User:Ian13|<span style="color:#067"><u>Ian</u>¹³</span>]][[User talk:Ian13|<span style="font-variant:small-caps">/t</span>]] 21:30, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

The [[WP:ARBCOM|Arbitration Committee]] is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the [[Wikipedia:Arbitration|Wikipedia arbitration process]]. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose [[WP:BAN|site bans]], [[WP:TBAN|topic bans]], editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Policy|arbitration policy]] describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

== Merry Christmas ==

If you wish to participate in the 2017 election, please review [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2017/Candidates|the candidates]] and submit your choices on the '''[[Special:SecurePoll/vote/400|voting page]]'''.
