Thanks for making a substantial contribution to Walter Short.
[edit]In looking through the history, I noted your edit helped it to make it interesting and informative, and for that, thanks. :) --MeekSaffron (Jaffa,Tree!) 16:27, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
Morse code
[edit]Thanks for your additions to Morse code. Do you have sources you could cite for the anecdotes about the 1939 speed record and the morse-blinker? It would help keep the article verifiable; see WP:CITE for details. Thanks, Chick Bowen 21:58, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply--whatever you can add would be helpful. By the way, don't forget to sign messages on talk pages using four tildes, i.e. ~~~~. The wiki software will automatically substitute your username and the time and date. Happy editing, and let me know if there's anything I can help you with. Chick Bowen 16:48, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
Redirects
[edit]On 15-June, you created a "soft" redirect from Brevet Medal to Marine Corps Brevet Medal. You should do a real redirect in cases like this. The instructions for how are at Wikipedia:Redirect. I've fixed this one, but if you need help in the future, let me know. Thanks! -- JLaTondre 00:19, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
Rotorcraft
[edit]Gliders are not "pulled through the air by gravity". The force of gravity only acts vertically and so cannot provide any horizontal component for propulsion. The force that make gliders go forwards is supplied by the wings. The lift force acts slightly forward of vertical because it is always at right angles to the air-flow. The airflow comes from slighly below the wing, see Angle of attack. Without wings, gliders would merely plummet vertically, vividly demonstrating gravity's limited abilities, but do not try this out for yourself. JMcC 12:06, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
Gliding
[edit]Richard. As a glider pilot, would you review the article on Gliding? If you think it is a good article, would you add your comments to : Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Gliding. I am trying to get Gliding as a featured article. This would mean that one day it would appear on the home page of the world's 15th most visited web site, which would be useful for the sport. If you think it is satisfactory, you merely have to add Support and why, and then follow it with the four tildes ( ~~~~ ) to record your name and date. JMcC 16:49, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi, I have removed your recent edit to Movement to impeach George W. Bush since it appears to be original research, which is not allowed on Wikipedia. If this is incorrect, please replace your edits along with citations of the sources it came from. Thanks, Gwernol 20:47, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
Thomas Midgley, Jr. revert
[edit]I reverted your recent edit to Thomas Midgley, Jr. as it was unreferenced. Please feel free to add it back with a valid reference cited. Thanks, Ruhrfisch 01:58, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
I've managed to get myself into a revert war with some "loonies" over the point of trivia you entered on January 16th. I don't see anything wrong with it being in the article, and it's clear there is no actual connection other than a funny coincidence... or is there? I wonder who named the "toonie" that way?

[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Francis Drake, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are already familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources please take this opportunity to add your original reference to the article. Thank you. Gscshoyru 17:14, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
Francis Drake
[edit]I must respectfully disagree with your removal of my paragraph on the vast hoax surrounding Drake's will. I caefully cross-referenced this to the perpetrator, who has his own article in Wikipedia which discusses the matter in depth, and included another reference to an article discussing The New Yorker piece on this scam. Thus, it is clearly referenced two different ways. If these links are satisfactory please return it; it's an amazing example of public gullibility. Richard Weil 04:39, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
- Your original link did not seem to be a WP:RS, nor did you WP:CITE it properly. But if the New Yorker had a piece on it, that is a reliable source, so add it back using that source as a reference, and WP:CITE it properly. Gscshoyru 11:46, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
USS Arizona Memorial
[edit]Hi, I am wondering what is the source for your information about visiting the USS Arizona Memorial? There is no citation given and if it's just based on personal experience, that would really be original research.
In particular, I'm concerned about your edit stating that a visitor can only remain there for 15 minutes -- when I was there last year, I stayed as long as I wanted to, and visitors could take any later boat back to the visitors' center. Has this changed? JGHowes talk - 06:10, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
Reply: The guide asked everyone to leave when the next boat came in. Apparently the rapid exhaustion of tickets that day (gone by 11 AM) encouraged a fast turnaround.
December 2009
[edit] Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of previously published material to our articles as you apparently did to RMS Queen Mary 2. Please cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you. Unless you can reference exactly where it is displayed onboard, complying with WP:V and WP:RS, it is original research and not allowable under our policies. -MBK004 06:00, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
January 2010
[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add content (particularly if you change facts and figures), as you have to the article Stephen Morse, please cite a reliable source for the content you're adding or changing. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Hello, I'm Ww2censor. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Postage stamps and postal history of the United States, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page.
Forums are not considered reliable sources and should be avoided per WP:ELNO. Is there not something better available? ww2censor (talk) 11:13, 30 January 2016 (UTC)
Minor edits
[edit] Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Gap9551 (talk) 17:59, 5 September 2016 (UTC)

Citations
[edit]Hi, I see you've been editing now for some years, and that some recent additions of whole paragraphs have been unsupported by citations, as have some insertions of sentences into existing paragraphs where the existing citation does not cover the new material. Could I gently remind you that reliable sources must be provided, by old hands or new, for all additions to the encyclopedia. With many thanks, Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:05, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
- Hi, I like Chiswick Chap note the same. Youve been editing longer than I have, but on Congo Free State a page I cleaned up you added raw links as refs.
That just isnt sufficient as a reference. Neither is a link to wikimediacommons. Please learn how to properly do it, or dont add any "own research". I am going to flag your additions {{full reference}} as a reminder. Thank you .--Wuerzele (talk) 05:57, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

Copying licensed material requires attribution
[edit]Hi. I see in a recent addition to American decline you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. It's also required under the terms of the license. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa (talk) 22:13, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Slowjamistan
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Slowjamistan requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. - Sumanuil.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Slowjamistan
[edit]Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing hoaxes, such as Draft:Slowjamistan, is considered to be vandalism and is prohibited. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia—and then to correct them if possible. If you would like to make test edits, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".

License tagging for File:Bab-el-Mandeb Seen From Midchannel.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Bab-el-Mandeb Seen From Midchannel.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 16:30, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
