Talk:Ash Street shootout

Citations Regarding Uncertain Numbers / Notes
Is there a reason the "Citations Regarding Uncertain Numbers" is not integrated into general citations or into notes? I appreciate the original editor's effort to be summative, but it seems clunky with the odd combination of [1] and [a] and [#1], etc. Maximilian775 (talk) 22:19, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I felt it was helpful to distinguish among explanatory notes, citations that clarify ambiguous numbers, and the rest of the citations. Maybe it looks a bit strange to have three kinds of footnote, but lots of articles do that, and I think it's outweighed by the benefit of clearly grouping the footnotes. Is there a more substantive reason to change? --  Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 20:48, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I was simply curious as to the rationale for such formatting, and didn't mean to necessarily advocate for a change.

Apparent incorrect statement, as timing does not add up
The article states that Foulk had combat experience in Panama. However, Operation Just Cause was launched on 20 December 1989, months after the shootout, which took place in September.

It is certainly possible that Mr Foulk had participated in some preparatory operation, leading up to the Invasion of Panama, however, no combat took place in these. Nauticalisimo (talk) 23:23, 1 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Coincidentally, I stumbled on a source clarifying this without noticing your comment, and corrected the error, which arose from a misleading phrasing in the 48 Hours interview, although I do take responsibility for drawing an inference that wasn't strictly there. --  Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 20:42, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
