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 Misplaced Pages 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.

Don't bother with MurderbyDeadcopy, you will only encourage his misguided and hostile behavior. I already tried helping him once, but, like you and other editors, I was marked as a bully. Just note his behavior will eventually lead to blocks, and maybe change his attitude. Best of luck.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 21:52, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Vandalism on acoustic resonance?

Hi just a query to the so called vandalism on the wiki page titled Acoustic resonance. As a physics student myself I support the change that was made prior to you removing it. I mean no disrespect however the image for an open cylindrical tube clearly shows 2 nodes at either end which is incorrect they should instead be anti-nodes. The second diagram for the closed cylindrical tube should show an anti-node emerging from the speaker and a node at the the other end. I do hope you will take the time to investigate the matter as it would be a shame for A-level students to learn the incorrect diagram. However if I am indeed wrong which is a possibility I would like a basic explanation on how the diagrams given are correct.

Hello Grace,

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Note the caption on the graphic says, "the horizontal axis is pressure". If it were displacement, you would be correct to say that both ends of the open pipe should be anti-nodes. Even if that were the case, it would not help to simply swap the two images, as was done in the edit I reverted. I hope this clarifies. Burninthruthesky (talk) 17:48, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

February 2016

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Plasticine. Your edits have been or will be reverted or removed.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Misplaced Pages's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Misplaced Pages's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. Andy Dingley (talk) 19:00, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
