Since I presume you missed it, let me call your attention to this, because I can assure you, I'm going to keep taking out the cruft until, & unless, you can offer some reason I shouldn't.  TREKphiler  any time you're ready, Uhura 09:34, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Note to Trekphiler: Go pick on some article in Canada. You may be a good typo correctional artist, but you have no idea about the history and components of this article. I own just about all these books and all have printed!!!published by National Tribune Publishing Co, plus my uncle was co owner of the company. What do you know to prove me wrong?!!! I started this article and researched it and I don't need you to come along and screw it up. Reread the opening title!!!!!!!!!
 * Pay attention. One, this isn't a "U.S. only" project, so I'm perfectly entitled to comment & edit. Get over it. Two, take a look at this or this: not every single damn thing the company produced there, either. The objective is to cover the activities, not, rpt not, act as a bibliography. Nor is it your sourcing I take issue with.
 * Moreover, "I started this article" doesn't mean you alone get to decide what goes in it. Take a look at the pages I've created, & the page histories of some of them, & see for yourself. Or read this.  TREKphiler  any time you're ready, Uhura 03:12, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your contributions to this article. You may want to review the guide to citing sources, as the reference style you are currently using will break as soon as another editor adds a source. You'll also find that using the proper reference style is much easier than manually keeping track of your references, as you're doing now. Regards, Orange Suede Sofa  (talk) 05:52, 8 February 2011 (UTC) If you want to fix the reference format you can. But I think it's okay now the way I have it. Thx.

Speedy deletion nomination of Superior Drill Company


A tag has been placed on Superior Drill Company, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Lagonda Club


A tag has been placed on Lagonda Club requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

Disambiguation link notification for January 5
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Marcel Dadi, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Maurice Levy ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Marcel_Dadi check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Marcel_Dadi?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.)

Colored regiments
I'm no expert, but I thought there were no black Army units with black officers during the Civil War. Am I misinformed? deisenbe (talk) 18:19, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
