Troy Tedford[edit]

Welcome to wikipedia.

I need you to please supply some sources for your article, or it will be promptly deleted. Thanks Glen 12:49, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

We're going to need some links please - google shows zero results for this alleged Purple Heart veteran Glen 12:57, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:RS Glen 13:06, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

His name was Troy Tedford, not Troy Telford. I am looking at his orginal Discharge papers right now. I also have his orginal purple heart with 2 olc. The man was a war hero in the biggest World War ever. I myself am a Historian. History degree recieved Dec of 04 from ATU.

Then you'll surely be able to provide me with some links with information regarding this gentleman. I find it hard to believe that one of the most decorated War hero's in World War II does not have a single online reference. This would really help us out, and I can remove the deletion tag and all the others too Glen 13:28, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

As a courtesy for other editors, it is a Wikipedia guideline to sign your talk page and user talk page posts. To do so simply add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your comments and your user name or IP address and the date will be automatically added along with a timestamp. Signing your comments helps people to find out who said something and provides them with a link to your user/talk page (for further discussion).For further info see the talk page guidelines.

Sock puppetry[edit]

Sock puppetry is a term used for users who have multiple accounts. I suggest you read WP:SOCK as it states:

“

Forbidden uses of sock puppets

Wikipedia uses a "one person, one vote" principle for all votes and similar discussions where individual preferences are counted in any fashion. Accordingly, sock puppets may not be used to give the impression of more support for a viewpoint. This includes voting multiple times in any election, or using more than one account in a discussion at polls and surveys, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, Wikipedia:Requests for adminship, or on talk pages.

Accounts operating in violation of this policy should be blocked indefinitely; the main account may be blocked at the discretion of any administrator.

”

If User:Johnmvp33 is infact you, it is my suggestion that you remove the "vote" ASAP. A checkuser can quickly reveal whether this is true, but this will result in your indefinite blocking so I suggest otherwise. Thanks Glen 14:59, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
