April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive
G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:


 * tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
 * adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
 * updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
 * creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various 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 scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

Disambiguation link notification for July 3
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited John Hamilton-Gordon, 1st Marquess of Aberdeen and Temair, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Kilburn ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/John_Hamilton-Gordon%2C_1st_Marquess_of_Aberdeen_and_Temair check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/John_Hamilton-Gordon%2C_1st_Marquess_of_Aberdeen_and_Temair?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Arms of Derry
Hello there! I've been editing the "coat of arms" section on the Derry article, and I noticed that you were the one responsible for most of the material there. I wanted to ask you about the sources you used, specifically L. E. Rothwell's "Inquiry initiated by Derry City Council into the ensigns armorial and related matters of the City of Londonderry". It sounds like something that would have a lot of good info in it, and I'd like to use it myself if possible, but I haven't been able track it down. Could you point me in the right direction? Zacwill ( talk ) 09:03, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Hello. The then Derry City Council were kind enough to send me a copy in July 2005 (on foot of a Freedom of Information request). It runs to 48 pages. Lozleader (talk) 10:53, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Ah, that's rather substantial. I hoped you might still have access to the file and be able to share it with me, but if it's a hard copy we're talking about then I couldn't expect you to send me all that. Thank you for telling me where to inquire though. Zacwill  ( talk ) 16:13, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
