I've seen other people with less achievent have articles, however I think one obituary might be insufficient. Might be a good topic for discussion on the board Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history. Thank you for asking :) Bwmoll3 (talk) 02:55, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Buck Compton reply

You posted:

Area51,

About Buck Compton: You added that he was named an "All-American".

Was that in baseball or football? He played both.

Also, can you please use the "name=" command in references. For more information see:

Wikipedia:Citing sources Thanks.

My Reply:

Dear Worst of Misfortune (hey, you called me the wrong name so I'm returning the favor lol)

The info about Compton being an All-American selection came from the Associated Press article I cited. It did not specify which sport. My assumption would be baseball since he was also named all-conference in that sport, but I've no way to verify it right at hand and putting an assumption in the Wiki would be unwise. Have a great Wiki kind of day. Sector001 (talk) 02:19, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Johnny Lujack edit

[edit]

Hello,

I cited the Indian Wells source, although the information about him living in California was not cited to begin with. I didn't see the reference that he golfs "as much as five times a week" but if you have a reference for a specific number then that can be added in. I know it's true but I don't know where you'd find a reference to that specific number, so I left it as "he spends his free time golfing" which my previous source also references.

Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiki1259 (talkcontribs) 06:06, 6 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Cryptic reference

[edit]

You have some time ago inserted at Norman Rockwell a cryptic reference to ‘SSDI. - SS#: 177-01-3581.’ Could you clarify, please?
