Why you revertin' my edits about Brookhaven? I'll say that Ebbers lived there instead of raised a family there. But I didn't say he was born there anyway; the section is notable residents, not notable natives. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.194.176.5 ( talk) 03:19, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
Rather than engaging in an edit war and risking both of us violating the three-revert rule, I'm taking this to the talk page of the University of Mississippi article. Let's hash it out there. Terence7 ( talk) 15:54, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
SEC Facts section
I removed this section because it seems to have no place in an article that is about an athletics conference. You subsequently removed the section, stating this is revelavant [sic] to SEC, page is not for athletics only. According to the lead, though, Southeastern Conference (SEC) is a college athletic conference, which substantiates my edit. If we include such a trivial, unrelated fact as one school hosting a presidential debate, it opens the flood gates for all kinds of things that aren't related to athletics to be added to the article. Why not include every fact related to the member schools? This article should be kept to athletics only, as that is the scope of the SEC itself, and the section should be removed. I'd like to hear others' opinions about this, so I've cross-posted it on the SEC talk page. MTR ( talk) 00:11, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
Why would you add more names to the Famous Mississippians section of Mississippi when there is an editors note that plainly says, THIS IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A COMPLETE LIST, INSTEAD, ADD NEW ENTRIES TO List of people from Mississippi ? ☆ 71.195.144.222 ( talk) 08:41, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- Normally I would agree not to add names to this list, but the work of Walter Anderson and George Ohr are major influences in art, and I felt that leaving them off this short list was a mistake.
We're going to be having our first Mississippi meetup next month, and I would love it if you'd like to come out! A few of us will be staying overnight, so if you feel up to it, we could have a meet and greet that night and then breakfast the next morning and talk about Wikipedia and everyone's areas of expertise. Let's show 'em how it's done Southern-style! Mike H. Fierce! 21:28, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
How can you accuse me of vandalism? The previous information was old (Fall 2007) and I updated it with Fall 2008 information AND gave a reference to the Mississippi IHL website. The UofM is now the 2nd largest university in Mississippi. That is a fact per the Mississippi Institutions of Higher Learning. Did you even look at the reference link?
Your edit summaries at Brookhaven, Mississippi do not explain why you are returning the entries. I have twice removed them and non-notable and/or unsourced. Per WP:PROVEIT, you must support your additions. There is nothing provided to demonstrate that these individuals are notable. There are either no sources whatsoever or self-published websites. Consider, for example, if I created (quite easily) a website claiming that I live in Brookhaven and invented water. Would I now be a "notable resident" of Brookhaven? Unless there is substantial discussion/sourcing of these, I will remove them again. Thanks. - SummerPhD ( talk) 13:16, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
Hello, I've posted an RfC about a controversial topic. I believe that you've participated in discussions about this before. Please participate dispassionately. NYCRuss ☎ 11:52, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
It was recently suggested that WikiProject Mississippi might be inactive or semiactive and it might be beneficial to include it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States. I have started a discussion on the projects talk page soliciting the opinions of the members of the project if this project would be interested in being supported by WikiProject United States. Please feel free to comment on your opinions about this suggestion. -- Kumioko ( talk) 03:15, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

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

US Banknote Contest |
|
|---|---|---|
| November-December 2019 | ||
|
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here | ||
