Changes to Magen David Adom
Thank you very much for improving the article on the Magen David Adom. I wanted to let you know about a couple of changes I made to your changes, so that you can use the information to make even more improvements. Where you had written:


 * On July 23th 2006 Israelian aircrafts attacked two Red Cross ambulances in Lebanon wounding 5 volunteers and 3 patients near the city of Tyre.

I'm not here to blame or make fun. I wanted to let you know what I changed & why so that when you correct other articles, you can keep these things in mind. First, I changed Israelian to Israeli. This is the correct posessive form of Israel. It doesn't take the normal -an ending because it's actually not an English word, so it follows the rules of Hebrew. Next, I changed aircrafts to aircraft. This is because aircraft is a noun that doesn't change form when it becomes plural. Other words that act the same way include sheep, moose, & cannon. SO, whether you have one or many, the word is always aircraft.

Please feel free to let me know if there is anything I can do to improve your stay here. --Ssbohio 23:43, 25 July 2006 (UTC)


 * All criticism is much appreciated. Thanks for the constructive feedback. --Henrik Gammelgaard 23:49, 25 July 2006 (UTC)


 * It's my pleasure. I hesitated to bring this to you, since it would be easy to misinterpret this as giving you a hard time or even making fun, when it isn't.  I'm glad you can take something positive away from my comments.  --Ssbohio 00:04, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
