Your edit to List of allied military operations of the Vietnam War (1969)
What's important is that the attached source supports your edit, or else it would likely be reverted, based on your edit summary. We can't edit based on personal experience, even if we know it to be true. (See verifiability, not truth) All content must be supported by reliable sources. Without that, edits like yours are considered original research and are not permitted. Additonally, there could also be a conflict of interest, (you should give that guideline a read as well). Lastly, try not to use ALL CAPS in your summaries or talk page posts, some people consider it rude.

Also, I replied to your post on my talk page. You can see that here. If you have any more questions or comments, you can post them here and I will see them as I am watching this thread. - w o lf  06:00, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Editing errors in USMC Vietnam wiki
In the past I was able to correct errors. Why has it become more difficult to access? Joe LoSchiavo Josephloschiavo (talk) 01:36, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I have no idea what you mean. I see you've only made two edits to the USMC page, the first was reverted, but the second remains as you left it. I would sugggest contacting the Help Desk, and try giving them more details about the issue you are having. Good luck - w o lf  01:47, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Let me begin by thanking you for the input and timely response. Secondly, usually when I make corrections (edits) my source(s) are Command Chronology(s). Lastly, I'm not sure how to include those sources, i.e., "brackets," etc.
 * Again, thanks, Joe Josephloschiavo (talk) 18:05, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I've moved the thread from my talk page to here because I like to keep all discussions in one place when possible. If you post the page you wish to edit, the change you wish to make, and a link to the source you are using to base your changes on, I will show you how to cite your edit. Just post all the info here and I will see it, since I'm watching this page. (That means I get a notification whenever an edit is made to this page.) - w o lf  20:35, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * And yet again, Wolfchild, thanks for the help. I am new at this (in the how-to-do-it arena), although I'm far from new at research. I was an aerial gunner with HMH-462, MAG 36, at Phu Bai, Vietnam. Any corrections/additions I make/made to the HMH-462 wikipedia come directly from individual AARs as filed by my pilots each flight (After Action Reports).
 * I saw in the past that you removed mentions I made to several pilots and their individual actions. I assumed it was because I didn't cite my sources. In the future I won't make the same mistake.
 * That said, I would never cite an untruth. On that I stake my word and honor as a United States Marine.
 * Yours truly, Joe  Josephloschiavo (talk) 16:29, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
