Grumman A-6 Intruder
Hi Suds BN, thanks for your willingness to improving Wikipedia. I assume from your username that you were a Bombardier/Navigator on A-6s, or otherwise connected to the aircraft. However, Wikipedia requires reliable published sources to add information to articles. The Welcome notice above contains links to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines on this, and also helps on how to cite your sources. I'd be happy to work with you on adding the sources for you information, which can include published sources that are not available online. Wikipedia does not allow personal knowledge to be used as a source, which is considered Original Research. However, your personal knowledge will be useful to you in helping to determine what sources are outright wrong and unreliable (BS), and you can discuss that on the article's talk page. I'm not a veteran myself, though my father and grandfather did serve, so I'm unsympathetic to veterans. Wikipedia has many editors who served in the military and and very productive users on Wikipedia. The main project on Wikipedia on military subjects is at WikiProject Military history, know as MILHIST, and you may find that Project to be useful if you decide to contribute to Wikipedia on a regular basis. Thanks, and happy editing. - BilCat (talk) 23:31, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
