Your edit to AH-64 Apache
Wikipedia is not a collection of merely verifiable facts: facts in Wikipedia must also be notable. As such, very few aircraft appearances in media warrant a special mention. Please see WikiProject_Aircraft/page_content for guidelines. Thank you for contributing. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Denniss (talk • contribs) 12:12, May 10, 2006.
 * Orca1 9904 - welcome to Wikipedia. I see that you’re a relatively new editor and that this notice might seem a little intimidating. I see no problem with a future Wikipedia contributor getting their start by adding a few game links to an article, just like the see other section or the pop culture in many other Wikipedia articles; we all start someplace and that is an easy section to update.  Remember (as much as I have read) that info referenced above isn't official sanctioned Wikipedia policy approved by Jimbo Wales or the Arbcom.  I am not advising you to disrupt wiki but that your contributions are valued and that one mans cruft is another’s valued information. --Supercoop 12:43, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

GoldenEye 007 rocket launcher
Hey, you changed Rocket launcher to RPG-7. Do you have any supporting information to back up this change? I ask because the RPG-7 looks nothing like the ingame launcher. Without a source supporting a parallel between the in-game launcher and the RPG-7, it should probably be left as the generic one. I'm going to leave a similar message on the article's talk page; please reply there.  Big Nate 37 (T) 14:01, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Your list IS worthwhile despite what some deletionists may say
The list (List_of_military_vehicles_in_films) you created is/was up for deletion. I want you to know there is a place for it: http://wikitistics.com. No one will be able to nominate it for deletion because it fits one simple rule: it's a statistic, list, or figure. Some people think these websites should encompass the same scope of a paper book- we don't. Apologies if this note is directed at the wrong person. Good luck with your endeavors!

M88A2 is not based on the Abrams
Here, the Army's own site says they're built on M88A1 hulls: which you seem to agree is based on the Patton, and I know Australia recently bought both the Abrams and the M88A2 and required a different supply of spare parts for each because they are built on a different chassis.

Look at the M88A2 photo on the M1 wiki page, it's got no Abrams style exhaust and the wrong number of road wheels (which don't even have clear hubs - the M1 has clear plastic caps so the crew can check the lubricating oil level at a glance - they are large enough that they should appear dark in that photo, like the other photo taken at the same show further up the page) and uses different tracks. It really shouldn't even be listed on the Abrams page except possibly as a note indicating that the M1 doesn't have a recovery version and the M88A2 is used instead. But, if I'm wrong and I don't see how I could be, you should then go and change the M88 page to remove the A2 as a variant, so that wikipedia will at least be consistent. Either the M1 page needs to be changed or the M88, they can't both be right. Ways 23:56, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Saving Private Ryan
Good Morning Orca and welcome to Wikipedia. We're trying to keep the Historical Inaccuracies section of the article to big stuff - like the 2nd Panzers not being in Normandy at the time shown in the movie - rather then trivia. We know there were a lot of minor filming goofs, but we're not trying to cover them here.--Lepeu1999 14:25, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

brain
Hi Orca, I wanted to explain that I'm going to undo your edit there, because Wikipedia disambiguation pages aren't intended as dictionary entries, they're intended as pointers to the Wikipedia articles. If there were a Wikipedia article on brain (verb), it would be appropriate to have it in the list there -- but I can't see that there would be anything more to go in such an article except a definition, which is the province of Wiktionary.

 * I'm Kenny99. You may have seen my work on Spider-Man 3 on imfdb. - Rockmandrum (talk) 04:37, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Should I add Battlefield Heroes to IMFDB? It's part of the Battlefield game series amd created by the same developers, except that it's a free online game and you have to pay for the battlefunds you need to purchase upgrades and equipment and you need to pay for the full version to access all features. The guns in the game include a Lewis gun, an M1A1 Thompson(you can purchase an M1928 Thompson from the stord in the game), a sniper version of the Lee Enfield with 8 rounds, a Gewehr 43 sniper, a Luger, an MP40, and some other unknown guns. You can download this at battlefieldheroes.com. _ Rockmandrum (talk) 00:23, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Aircraft in fiction
Thanks for working on the article. A couple of things I'd like to mention to you about the consensus among the editors that have saved this article from deletion. 1)Entries need citations from reliable source. 2)Per WP:OVERLINK, when something like a film title is linked once, we aren't linking it again and again. Once is enough. 3) Appearences must be significant'. Just being in an episode of something for a few seconds isn't enough. It needs to play a central role in the fictional work.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Main battle tank, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This is particularly important when adding or changing any facts or figures and helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. I haven't reverted, but could you provide references to your recent addition please? ( Hohum  @ ) 17:00, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field – please fill in your new section's name instead.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Hank Schyma, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Wizard of Oz. 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.

Proposed deletion of Hookset


The article Hookset has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "WP:DICDEF, does not seem expandable beyond that"

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. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 03:18, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

Nomination of Hookset for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Hookset is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Hookset until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 20:34, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
