User talk:Jeremy Bentham

Hi Jeremy, welcome to Wikipedia. Thanks very much for tackling these First World War battles and so forth. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Geoff/Gsl 06:11, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Battle of Appomattox Courthouse
Nice article. I've submitted it to appear on the front page of Wikipedia at: Template talk:Did you know. It'll probably appear on the front page in about 2 days. --brian0918 &#153; 03:49, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 Did you know has been updated and a fact from the article Battle of Appomattox Courthouse, which you recently created, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you have another interesting fact to submit, then please suggest it at the section's talk page.

Well done! --mav 07:26, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Just wanted to say Bravo! for all your WONDERFUL work on U.S. history and U.S. military history. And that Dull Knife Fight is the official best name of any battle ever. EVER! (I'm usually not this hysterical, but I'm just so impressed.) jengod 19:14, Apr 6, 2005 (UTC)

Nice to meet you. Is Jeremy Bentham your real name? If so, it might be a good idea to make that clear on your user page, to avoid being asked to change it. Deb 18:07, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Battle of Sitka
Hi, Jeremy. Thanks for the kind words, especially from someone who obviously has a strong interest and background in the subject of "battles." See you around Wikipedia. --Lordkinbote 03:13, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

Great Articles
Jeremy, you've got some great articles! Did you know that if starting a stub article you can use one of the Category:Military history stubs(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Stub_sorting/Stub_types#Military_history) stub types to attract other editors interested in your articles? You may also be interested in using this category to expand on other needed Military History articles. These categories are part of the WP:WSS project. Xaosflux 02:56, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

Hello, want to contribute?
Hi Jeremy! My name is Dennis Nilsson and I am currently working on the refinement of the article List of Battles of World War I. I noticed that you made a couple of additions of battles on the article Caucasus Campaign and since the Caucasus Campaign did not exist in the article, I added it along with the battles that came from you. I wonder if you would consider contributing to List of Battles of World War I, since you seem to have knowledge. Feel no pressure, though. If you want to send me a message, do it on my talk page. My regards, Dennis Nilsson. Dna-Dennistalk - contribs 02:19, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Nice article
The Battle of Santa Cruz de Rosales article is pretty good. Have you submited it to Did you know? -- Rune Welsh | &tau;&alpha;&lambda;&kappa; | Esperanza 14:14, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Tuxpan
Nice catch with my edit on Tuxpan, sorry for that. After looking for it, the actual name of the city is Tuxpan (without the accent) so the article may need to be moved to the correct title at some point. Cheers. -- Rune Welsh | &tau;&alpha;&lambda;&kappa; | Esperanza 03:26, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Comments by other users
Hi! Please be aware that changing another user's comments (like so, for instance) may be considered vandalism and is generally frowned upon. &mdash;Kirill Lokshin 03:57, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

Comment will be deleted
Hi. I like your additions to:

Elwell Stephen Otis But they are not referenced. Can you provide a reference to this statment which you added:


 * Otis was a generally disliked commander by his subordinates and the general public. He was nicknamed "Granny" by his troops because of his age and graying hair.

Otherwise I will delete it after a week. I looked on the web and on google print and amazon, and could find no reference to this at all.

Andrew´s Page
Hello, Dear Jeremy. I have just written a page about Fort Fisher. I would like that You may check it and -- later -- you may tell me your qualification. I´m particularly interested about grammatical issues. Anytime. --AndresArce 13:43, 1 June 2006 (UTC)AndresArce

Michael Corcoran Place of Birth
Jeremy, You started the above-named article, stating that Michael Corcoran was born in County Donegal, Ireland, but further evidence has shown that he was actually born in County Sligo (see the page itself for the references). I and some other editors have had to revert a particular editor a number of times, who continuously changes this place back to Donegal. In the interest of fairness, I'd be interested to know where your reference to Corcoran's place of birth as Donegal comes from. Thanks. --The.Q | Talk 12:44, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

William Jenkins Worth
That was my great great great great (its either 3 or 4, I always forget) grandfather. Good work on the article :) 198.6.46.11 19:04, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Referencing problem with First Battle of Pyramid Lake
Hi Jeremy. I came across your article First Battle of Pyramid Lake and noticed that its referencing is unclear. At present you have a number of inline citations to Michno but as you haven't included the full citation in the references section per WP:CITESHORT it is impossible to know which of Gregory Michno's many books you are referencing. Can you please add the full citation in the appropriate place? Exactly the same problem exists with Battle of Williams Station. Thank in advance. Anotherclown (talk) 16:11, 14 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Nevermind, I have found the information from the Second Battle of Pyramid Lake and I have added it myself. In future please ensure to include it in your articles though. Cheers. Anotherclown (talk) 16:48, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

Veracruz order of battle
Your order of battle has two entries for the 2nd U. S. Infantry and none for the 5th U. S. Infantry that should be there. Can you check your list and make one of those 2nd's a 5th? Been adding commanding officers of regiments using the William Hugh Robarts, "Mexican War veterans : a complete roster of the regular and volunteer troops in the war between the United States and Mexico, from 1846 to 1848 ; the volunteers are arranged by states, alphabetically", BRENTANO'S, (A.

Confederate Order of Battle- Siege of Charleston
Hey. I am looking into the above topic. It seems rather incomplete, so may I ask your sources? The units at Grimball's Landing for instance, are not there. Colquitts's Georgia regiments for instance. I have the Official Records, Sifakis compendium, among many others, so I will do some research and try complete the OOB. I postet on the Talk page too. I also have to add that the Military districts of South Carolina around Charleston is a nightmare to research. (TomV71 (talk) 10:59, 20 April 2017 (UTC)).

Open wikis as sources
I saw that, some years back, you used an article from an open wiki as a source for an article. Without reviewing your editing history I don't know if this was a exception. But in any case, pleasre review WP:SELFPUBLISH, which makes it clear that wikis like that are not acceptable sources. If you used it repeatedly, please be kind enough to go back and replace the citations with better sources. Mobi Ditch (talk) 01:06, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
