Gripen user map

Hi. Netherlands has shown interest in the Gripen NG. Maybe you could update the Gripen user map accordingly. Thanks. LarRan (talk) 14:02, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

References for T-80 in Georgia

Hi.

I noticed that you added the war in Georgia to the list of conflicts which the T-80 tank served in. I already removed this information from the article once, since I have seen no references supporting this statement. (I did this because I am trying to improve the quality of the article, and as you may know, any questionable fact in Wikipedia should have a verifiable reference supporting it.)

So I'm removing it again for now, but I'd like to restore it if you could supply a reference link to some reliable source. Thanks. —Michael Z. 2008-08-24 06:22 z

Uncredited ship drawings

Uncredited images

Your ship drawings have been created using parts taken from Shipbucket.com. We have a very strict Fair Use Agreement (viewable here: http://www.shipbucket.com/fairuse.php). You are NOT the original author of these drawings and as admin of Shipbucket, I kindly request their replacement with a properly-credited drawing or their outright deletion. Colosseum (talk) 15:34, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, you can't use our parts without using our template. See the Fair Use Agreement for details. Thanks for your understanding. Colosseum (talk) 04:28, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Lot of proportion ships viewed in Shipbucket and that used by Walle83 is different. I think this is created by Walle83. For example i can´t found any drawings of Ivan Gren on Shipbucket page...--Hornet24 (talk) 18:31, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Walle informed me that he used Shipbucket guns and a Mil helo on his image, therefore it MUST be credited properly and placed in the shipbucket template to be used. Colosseum (talk) 23:25, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OK, as long as the Shipbucket parts have been removed, there is no problem here. Colosseum (talk) 04:30, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Difference of launch procedure in Russia

Here is some difference in launch procedure in Russia - in most shipyards is ships/subs build in constuction hall, then is moved on "rail" to launch position in floating or static dock in which is ship launched. Same type of procedure is used in case of overhaul, when ship/sub is overhauled in hall which is sometimes hundreds meters from water. --Hornet24 (talk) 01:01, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Project 1157 cruiser

The article Project 1157 cruiser has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced article about a ship class of dubious existiance - only 'references' found in a quick Google are Internet forums (one of which says '...as the real Project 1157 was an intelligence gathering ship...') and Wikimirrors.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Source

Hi, it's good that you are adding sources to articles, but it would be even more helpful if you could add them as per WP:CITE. (See here for an example.) - wolf 19:35, 27 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Again

If you could fill the source you just added here, it would be helpful, as it won't create work for others. - wolf 02:51, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Its Wikipedia, just edit if you want to add something Walle83 (talk) 12:03, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I realize that. But I'm not talking about adding content of my own, I'm talking about fixing your edits. You are leaving bare refs (like this), which means someone else has to fill them in (like this). They should be filled in, per WP:CITE, and are easy enough to do when you add them, but when you leave them bare, you just create work for others. - wolf 17:02, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I dont get why the English version dont have the auto-making ref option, would make things so much easier. I might try if I get inspired, but since Im been adding sources like I do since 2007 i doubt it. Walle83 (talk) 18:37, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Like I said, you're just creating work for others. It only takes a few extra seconds to complete the ref when you first add it, how much "inspiration" do you need, to do something so quick and easy? - wolf 22:43, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

August 2022

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Shang-class submarine, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 08:51, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Type 052D destroyer, you may be blocked from editing. Furthermore, citations need more than just the URL. Demonstrate you've accessed - or are capable of accessing - the quality of the source by adding additional information (WP:BAREURLS). - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 15:47, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

November 2022

Hello, and thank you for your efforts to improve Wikipedia, and in particular for adding references, as you did to Type 094 submarine! However, you should know that adding a bare URL is not ideal, and exposes the reference to linkrot. It is preferable to use proper citation templates when citing sources. A bare URL is a URL cited as a reference for some information in an article without any accompanying information about the linked page. In other words, it is just URL copied and pasted into the Wiki text, inserted between <ref>...</ref> tags, without title, author, date, or any of the usual information necessary for a bibliographic citation. Here's an example of a full citation using the {{cite web}} template to cite a web page:

Lorem ipsum<ref>{{cite web |title=Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac |publisher=Canon Inc |work=Ask a Question |date=2022 |url=https://support.usa.canon.com/kb/index?page=content&id=ART174839 |access-date=2022-04-02}}</ref> dolor sit amet.

which displays inline in the running text of the article as:

Lorem ipsum^[1] dolor sit amet.

and displays under References as:

1. ^ Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac". Ask a Question. Canon Inc. 2022. Retrieved 2022-04-02.

If you've already entered one or more bare urls to an article, there are tools available to expand them into full citations; try the reFill tool, which can resolve some bare references semi-automatically. Once again, thanks for adding references to articles, and to avoid future link rot, please consider supplementing your bare URLs—creating full, inline citations with title, author, date, publisher, etc. More information can be found at Wikipedia:Inline citations. Thank you. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 20:03, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
