Your edits to Military of the Republic of China
Hey there. I notice you've been adding information on arms purchases and visits to the US. Although that may be useful, I think you're copy-and-pasting information from news articles without sources. Really you're inserting too much information - you should add a brief summary of what's happening - one or two lines - with full citations as used elsewhere in the article. Otherwise it forces someone else to clean it up.

Please summarise the material you added to a much briefer format and add citations. Thanks, John Smith&#39;s 11:51, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Welcome!
 Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.

A few features that you might find helpful:


 * Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
 * The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can [ watchlist it] if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including WPMILHIST Announcements there.
 * Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you [ watchlist it].
 * The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, offline publication, article improvement contests, and other tasks.
 * We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
 * We've developed a variety of guidelines for article structure and content, template use, categorization, and other issues that you may find useful.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the project coordinators, or any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! Carom 02:01, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:NATO Troops with game interface.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:NATO Troops with game interface.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Pricing in World in Conflict
Hi. It doesn't matter if the pricing is official, confirmed, or you have sources for it. The bottom line is, it's convention not to include them (other editors also think it's not relevant to the article). If people want to know what price a game is, they can check Amazon or their local shops. Just because information is useful doesn't mean it should be included in an article. Thanks! Fin©™ 07:54, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

World in Conflict Tables
Hi. Wikipedia is for information, yes, but not all information is encyclopedic. Like I said above, just because information is useful doesn't mean it should be included. The table of the cost, deployment and recharge time of each tactical aid is one such piece of information. It's something you might find at GameFaqs, or in the game's manual itself, but it shouldn't be on Wikipedia. Hence, per WP:NOT, I removed it. Thanks! Fin©™ 10:13, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Hello again. I've removed the list of tactical aids again, as it read like a game guide/manual and was far too descriptive. Try to stay away from over describing minor elements of games, instead provide a short overview paragraph. Thanks! Fin©™ 13:25, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

World in Conflict

WiC Genre
I changed the genre to RTT after a discussion in the talk section in which 3 people (including myself) were in favor of the change and one against. I made the change and put in a citation to an interview in which the developers described it as an RTT. If you think it should be RTS and not RTT then you should continue the discussion in the WiC article, and not just change revert it without saying anything. 24.167.151.237 18:42, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

FYI
I restored one of the wiki-links on the Taiwan military page to the Harpoon missile sale, as I don't think there was one previously on the page. But you were right to remove the other ones - they didn't all need to be linked. John Smith&#39;s 11:04, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

User warnings.
Hi Kliu, nice to meet a fellow game addict. ;-) Anyway, to answer your questions, you can find the most common templates here: User:AndonicO/Vandalism Templates (the actual page where all the templates are is too long, so I keep it there in case someone wants to know). For example, if the person vandalizing hasn't been given a warning, and the edit appears to be a test (for example, someone added "hi" at the top of the page), use a, or a  . If it's their first warning, and it's severe vandalism (cursing, or if on a biography adding nonsense about the person), use a "level 2 warning" (  , or. If it's their second time, and it's not severe vandalism, use a level 2. If it's the second time, and it is severe, use a level 3. Third time, non severe, you could use a level 3, or a level 4 warning. If it's the third, and it's severe, use a level 4, straight away. If they keep vandalizing after a level 4 (check the time on the warner's signature, and the time of the last edit to make sure it's actually after), report them to WP:AIV, and an administrator will block them quite soon. Hope that's not too confusing: if I didn't make myself clear, just say so. · AndonicO Talk 23:42, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

P.S. You could try the warnings at the sandbox: just copy and paste them as you see them here. · AndonicO Talk 23:42, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:WIC Taiwan Metallic USA Boxart.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:WIC Taiwan Metallic USA Boxart.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Plot Edits to World in Conflict
My plot edits were a neutral change to the article, no view other than what is available to players of the game has been represented. All of my edits to the article can be verified from the in-game materials. Grammar edits were needed for better clarity and certain details, such as the reasons for the Soviet attacks, were summarized or, where redundant, left out in an effort to keep the article from violating Wikipedia article policy. Personal information, such as Colonel Sawyer's "crisis of conscience" during the war or Bannon's reference of guilt can be placed in a characters section if anyone is willing to start one (did he really have 'pangs of conscience' for the rest of his life?). Other information such as the Spetsnaz occupation of Liberty Island or the real reason for the defense of Fort Teller were added in as important plot points. The naval base at Norfolk is an educated guess as to the actual target since it is referred to only as "Norfolk" in the cinematic describing the aftermath of the Murmansk operation in the game. The painted still showing Soviet subs launching an attack on what appear to be military ships in harbor lend some credence to this. I have reverted the article back to my previous edit for these reasons.Voracious Reader 15:47, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

World in Conflict, Taiwan
Hi. No, I'm not racist, and please do not jump to such completely rash decisions in the future. I'm simply following guidelines from Template_talk:Infobox_CVG/Syntax_Guide. They state, as regards release dates, "Use the first public non-festival release in the game's country of origin, as well as any English-language release dates available.". Taiwan is not English-language, and therefore, is not relevant. I'm removed it again in line with this guideline. Again, please do not use person attacks in the future, when you question an author's motive. Thanks. Fin©™ 09:27, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Sky Bow III
Hello, again. As you created the article and added most of the content for it, please can you insert some citations and webpages? John Smith&#39;s 19:17, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Furthermore, I have a suggestion. I've been looking at the "Sky Bow" articles. I thought it would make more sense if there was just one article for them, rather than three, given they're so short. Do I have your support to merge them at some point? John Smith&#39;s 19:24, 14 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Don't worry about the merger - Jerrch has already taken care of it! Just help improve the new article at Sky Bow as much as you can. John Smith&#39;s 21:26, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Picture request
Kliu, this might sound really weird but when are you next in Taiwan? Only I was wondering if you or someone you know could take a few military Taiwanese pictures and then upload them on to the project. We're really missing pictures on the ROCN, specifically the Perry and Kang Ding frigates, as well as the Hai Lung submarines. There are some already here but they're fair use and likely to be deleted. Any chance you could help? John Smith&#39;s (talk) 20:34, 20 November 2007 (UTC)


 * If you could basically as many naval photos as you can up close and personal while on holiday that would really help the project. Hope you have a nice time there. :) John Smith&#39;s (talk) 22:03, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Could you please update your pictures with things like when you took it, what camera you took it with, etc. John Smith&#39;s (talk) 22:07, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Problems with some photographs you uploaded
I had a look on the MND website and some of the photos you uploaded and claimed as your own were on the website. I can only assume you downloaded them from there and accidentily thought they were your own.

Can you please go through the pictures you've uploaded and try to work out which are your own and which are copyrighted by the Taiwanese defence ministry. We can keep them, but we need to put the right tag on them (according to a picture already uploaded the gov says they're PD). John Smith&#39;s (talk) 12:39, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

If you list the ROCN/MND pictures that would help. But more importantly please try to find the URLs where you got them from - if you can't they'll eventually be deleted one way or another. Look on the MND website - there are lots of pictures there. Some are on the official gallery, others on other sub-pages. John Smith&#39;s (talk) 22:09, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

One more thing - please give the URL where you found the picture. You should be able to find them again on the MND website - just look hard on all the pages. John Smith&#39;s (talk) 10:30, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

No time these days. As for the userpage, I used the portal template; just follow those instructions, and then change the final design so that it's appropriate for a userpage (do you really want a DYK or portal header on your userpage?). It's quite complicated, and many changes don't take effect until you save (making preview useless), so your userspace edit count will likely be inflated. Anyway, good luck if you decide to go for it, nice hearing from you. · AndonicO Engage. 10:34, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Image of Transcend JF V30 Flash Drive.JPG
Thanks for uploading File:Image of Transcend JF V30 Flash Drive.JPG. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 07:05, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Trancscend T.sonic
Hey dude.

I see you have created an aarticle for JetFlash.

Back in 2008, I created an article for Transcend T.sonic.

It was deleted for some apparently silly reasons.

You can view the AfD here : Articles for deletion/Transcend T.sonic.

I have an archived version of the final article before it got deleted in my userspace User:Rsrikanth05/Transcend T.sonic.

I was wondering if you could maybe help me in recreating the article.

Regards,

--Rsrikanth05 (talk) 16:57, 13 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Hey dude, do you know when the T.sonic 820 [aka MP820] was released? Because AFAIK, it was released before the 3rd gen iPod Nano [the wide one], and thus T.sonics supported video playback waay before the iPods. I can use that for notability.... --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 15:01, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 05:00, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

New Challenge for Oceania and Australia
Hi, WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest!

March Madness 2017
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:


 * tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
 * updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
 * creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference.

Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017.
