Thanks for that welcome. I am dipping my toes in very gently! I will try signing with four tildes at the bottom of this.
As you can probably gather from my cryptonym, I reckon to know a little about timber technology, and also bridges, which is why I tried the edit on that particular one.
An area of Wiki work that I am uncertain about is securing copyrights of photos, including old ones where maybe the photographer and or organisation is now defunct. Any suggestions for help within? Also, is it the case that all UK Crown Copyright materal is off bounds?

[edit]Dendrotek (talk) 12:00, 14 October 2008 (UTC) Hi, I'd like to contact you about copyright permission to print a copy of your photo of Philippi Covered Bridge. This will be in UK. Because our copyright position is different to USA it is safer to obtain originator's permission wherever possible rather than relying on GNU. I am of course requesting non-exclusive use, i.e. you will not be tied or implicated in any way. Your name and/or pseudonym will be credited as you wish.
Cheers, Dendrotek

Coverdale
[edit]On my German talk page, I collected some information from German literature on Coverdale's Bergzabern stay. (The important points are not really new, though.)--Oudeístalk 10:15, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

Section entitled ″618 Squadron - Highball and the Pacific″
[edit]Just a suggestion - this section seems to occupy quite a lot of space and apparent importance for a Special Variant of the Mosquito that never saw any active service. I wonder whether it originated in the Main Article? Here we are considering Operational History rather than intricate technical modifications to a small number of aircraft variants. There is a Section of the Wikipedia Article Bouncing Bomb about Highball. Perhaps we could transfer some of this Section there, maybe abbreviating the bullet-pointed list? We could then retain a smaller length of text here about Highball, maybe combining it with some other low-volume operational variants e.g. the Tetse Molins gun FB's? Birtles' excellent book, recently published, takes a similar approach. See Bibliography. Okan 17:33, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
