Disambiguation link notification for July 20
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2 Intelligence Company, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Meritorious Service Medal, Lindsay and Corps of Guides. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks very much for the Int Coy articles, but, WP:NOTMEMORIAL
First, thank you very much for researching and adding, carefully, in the proper way, the article about 2, 3, and 6. The Intelligence Corps on the Canadian side is not well covered here. We very much appreciate this careful and very well documented writing. But unfortunately, it's been well proven through large numbers of deletion discussions that WP:NOTMEMORIAL, which I would encourage you to click through and read, is part of WP:NOT and thus our WP:Five Pillars. I've just tried to ping you regarding your very long and detailed listings of KIAs: basically it has been decided that listing all personnel killed in action from a unit is not desired, and individuals under the rank of senior non-commissioned officer or major/lieutenant colonel without a combatant command are not generally WP:NOTABLE, and thus detailed listings of KIAs as found in your article are inappropriate. The ruling regarding who is or is not notable - our draft Milhist project guideline - is WP:SOLDIER, which has the more formal wording of what I've just written above.

Thus, someone at some point is going to come along and remove the very detailed list of privates etc who did die for their country. It's not a rule all agree with, more it's a question of another rule (WP:UNDUE) and crowding out the actual activities of the company and its predecessor units as a whole. So I'd like to invite you to take a shot yourself at winding your lists of KIAs into the main body of the article, or, should you wish, I can doing some rewriting myself and we can work together and see what we think. Keen to collaborate on this to maintain some very useful additions and a great new editor!! Kind regards from Aotearoa New Zealand, Buckshot06 (talk) 22:30, 24 September 2015 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:2 Int Coy logo.gif
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:2 Int Coy logo.gif. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 20:55, 4 October 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

WP:NOTMEMORIAL
You cannot just revert edits that are made in accordance with Milhist's guidelines; if you do so, you will face administrator action - mine or others. Please engage on the talkpages to discuss this issue and others, or you will probably find yourself sanctioned. Buckshot06 (talk) 08:52, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Kanuk82, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to 4 Intelligence Company has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Copyrights. You may also want to review Copy-paste.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 21:01, 24 April 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Bee Local 416


The article Bee Local 416 has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "no indication this would meet WP:CORP"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
