Sargo edit

I was just watching a show on PBS about Elizebeth Smith Friedman and one of her many accomplishments was unmasking Johannes Siegfried Becker, codename "Sargo" who was the Nazi spymaster behind Operation Bolivar, so I don't know what you thought was not productive, but great job hitting the revert button before I had a chance to fix the link. You must be very happy with yourself.96.240.128.124 (talk) 05:30, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Ok , first of all I didn't know that and secondly you created a red link which should not be present in see also at the top of the page . If you feel I made a mistake feel free to revert and leave a valid edit summary Kpgjhpjm 08:51, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Circular breathing

The caution/vandal tag you put on User talk:50.4.44.172 probably should have been a block. It's turning out to be game of wack-a-mole. The user got blocked already from another IP address. Just a heads up. Dana60Cummins (talk) 12:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Dana60Cummins, Thanks for the notice . Unfortunately I am not an administrator so I can't block someone . If you feel someone needs to be blocked make a report at Aiv or ANI . Kpgjhpjm 15:20, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
