Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Rick Springfield, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! DonIago (talk) 18:43, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

I've changed the references to pilot's certificate to point to the article on Pilot certification in the United States. I hope that this is acceptable. Best wishes for the holiday season and the new year, and safe flying in 2024. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 00:24, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

It's not really necessary. It's kind of like adding a reference a driver's license. That's just what it is. The FAA issues certificates not a licenses. It could be a mechanics certificate, a pilot certificate, an air traffic controller certificate, etc. I don't really see the need for a reference TBH. He was an astronaut so go ahead and put a reference in for astronaut, he was an engineer so go ahead and put in a reference for engineers. See my point? Bhilbern (talk) 02:58, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

I see your point. This is mine: several of the sources say "pilot's license" so to head off people changing it back I have provided a link to an explanatory article. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 04:08, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
