Notability of Denver Truelove
I still don't think you've demonstrated the notability of Truelove. You have cited two sources: one (The Dooltittle Raid:...) mentions him barely in passing. The second (Denver and the Doolittle Raid) was written by Truelove's grand-nephew, and can hardly be called an independent source. All members of the Doolittle Raid were doubtless brave and laudable, but Truelove's biography, aside from this single event (see WP:BLP1E) is unremarkable at best. The awards and medals he received are not unlike the awards and medals received by many soldiers during WWII. I don't see anything in this person's biography to distinguish him from the run of the mill, except for the single event. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 21:06, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

Personally, I think it's sad that a person has to be of incredibly high rank, or have made some important technological or literary contribution to the army to deserve a Wiki page. Denver gave his life for his country, and had an important role in a mission that was incredibly morale-boosting here on the home front. While nothing necessarily makes Denver "different" from the other raiders (besides the recently written juvenile-audience biography that has made him better-known among fans of the Doolittle Raid), he is still an important figure. If we ignore the lesser-known people in our history, how will they be remembered and honored? The answer is simple: they won't be. Narnian1950 (talk) 21:15, 3 September 2013 (UTC)Narnian1950
 * You seem to have provided enough other sources that the article should pass muster. I retract my prior objections.  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 21:23, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your understanding. I will be adding more sources and information as I come upon them. I hope to perhaps make pages for other distinguished Doolittle Raiders, since many of them did lots of other notable deeds during World War II.

Hello, I'm Elizium23. I noticed that you recently removed some content from The Chronicles of Narnia (film series) without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!

Sorry about that, Elizium23! I forgot to state what was changed. There was information that appeared in more than one place, so I fixed that problem.
