So what more do you want to know?

[edit]

I apologize if my answers were a bit too short ... it's my journalistic inclinations, I guess. If you have any questions, feel free to ask--I'll do my best to answer. Thanks ... Blueboy96 16:39, 18 November 2007 (UTC) [reply]

You indicated that this article is a copyvio of [1], which would be an understandable assumption, except the article clearly lists the original public domain source:

This article includes text from the public domain Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships. The entry can be found here.

There's tons of PD content copied all over the internet without attribution, so it's risky business to presume a match equals a copyvio. Please be sure to look for PD references within articles before making that leap :) — Bellhalla (talk) 23:49, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that - I overlooked it. I've removed the speedy tag for you. Feel free to point out any other mistakes of mine if you find any. :-) Stwalkerster talk 23:54, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hugh Seat Article

[edit]

Hey, that was a quick response/correction to Hugh seat - I'd hardly pressed upload! But I see you're a keen sky-watcher (and are probably eagle eyed) - hope you've seen the comet! Cheers OldFaw (talk) 15:58, 21 November 2007 (UTC) [reply]
