edit warring

@HardMental: Please discontinue adding a link to Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Corporal Seyit on the article. It does not belong there. We do not use the article namespace to advertise nominations like that. If you revert again I'm going to report you for edit warring. Please stop and discuss! Chris Troutman (talk) 03:35, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about this comment of mine, removing it at once since any external links this way are not allowed on discussion page. HardMental (talk) 14:20, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Need a hand on the date format for links please,

Added link for a nomination page, taken this Article for Style into account: Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Linking#What_generally_should_be_linked 'If you feel that a link does not belong in the body of an article, consider moving it to a "See also" section.' It states, so I also added a See Also section taking example from the Alexander The Great which also had some portals leading to related projects and other content. I want to point out that I made the page for the nominee but the main reason for me linking it was to promote the story for the photograph that I researched and found recently, imagining that it would create somewhat of an interest on the reader for the article. I would like to take help on the formatting of the dates, if objected It could be added after the nomination ends. I also would like to apologize for any confusions/misunderstandings that I may have caused, and sorry about my previous behaviors since I am quite short tempered but I assure you I had no malicious purpose behind my actions. Would like to thank you for reading this and your contributions on this matter and on the others are welcome. HardMental (talk) 14:20, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@HardMental: I have repeatedly warned you. I put the link on the talk page just to pacify you. You can be blocked in short order if you continue. Your apologies fall on deaf ears. Just stop. Chris Troutman (talk) 17:36, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Chris troutman:Ok looks alright to me and fine by my side but any chance to add it to main article after nomination ends? And no I did not do any further editing on the matter besides what I did os far. Thanks for the reply no need for any kind of blocks please, thanks again for your attention, just figured out to ping by the way. HardMental (talk) 17:38, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Chris troutman:Can I have a hand on fixing the alignment for the portal box, you removed the comment I left on the code. Can you add it back if you think you won't be able to arrange it. thanksHardMental (talk) 17:58, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

added it back now,please don't remove it until a fix is in order, thanks. HardMental (talk) 18:18, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know what you're asking for. I don't see a problem with the portal bar or the date format. So long as you don't re-add the link to the featured picture nom (per WP:LINKDD) then we ought to be fine. Chris Troutman (talk) 18:51, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Chris troutman:Would it be ok to add it back after it is no more a candidate, I added a backstory for the picture would like to link it here somehow if possible, otherwise it will be carried to "Recently closed nominations" and will be obsolete. Thanks for the replies. HardMental (talk) 19:13, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No, it would not be appropriate. I don't see why you think you can negotiate this. We don't include links like that. Chris Troutman (talk) 21:22, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Chris troutman: In what way it is inappropriate, it will fit to rules on the WP:LINKDD that you showed me earlier but what else is there, I was taking that as a reference, anything other than this that I am missing? Also it won't be moved to "Recently closed nominations" but rather to "Suspended nominations", my bad. How can it be done, are we simply not allowed to do so? HardMental (talk) 17:00, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@HardMental: LINKDD specifically says "Don't link to user, project, or draft pages in articles" which prohibits what you want to do. For example, I wrote an article and nominated a hook for the "Did You Know" wikiproject. The instructions for nomination include transcluding the nomination on the talk page which I did. Conversely, not only does "featured picture" not require publicizing the nomination, it certainly does not belong in the article. Readers should only be reading articles and we don't typically show them then "back office" areas of Wikipedia unless there's a maintenance issue like a merge proposal or a deletion discussion. Regardless of my reasoning, on Wikipedia we operate by consensus. You want to add a link on the article and I've reverted you. You don't have consensus so you can't add the material. You can argue all you want but that link is not going on the article. We can take this to WP:DRN or WP:AN if you cannot accept this. Chris Troutman (talk) 19:24, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Chris troutman: Thanks for your detailed explanation on things, I was just curious on the matter and it does makes sense I guess now when you say it this way, so further discussion is not needed for this then, I will try and improve the article according to related article on its own language (meaning the source), will schedule it for some time in the future, of course to the best of my ability. Would like to receive your thoughts on it too, also would be nice to have a helping hand please feel free to make any changes you think that would be fitting and please also explain a little too on the talk page so I can see and learn how you do, why you do so etc. Hope I managed to express myself clearly. Cheers.HardMental (talk) 20:07, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Featured Picture nomination

An image from this article has been nominated at Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Corporal Seyit. Chris Troutman (talk) 17:28, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Shell weight

All the info I'm finding re the 240mm L35 Krupp fortress gun that Seyit Cabuk crewed on seem to give shell weights between 120 - 215kg, one specific Item mentions the Turkish guns having shell weights of 120 - 160kg. Could the 275 weight actually be lbs? 125.236.147.185 (talk) 08:04, 18 March 2020 (UTC) Phil Nelson^[1][reply]
