A-class review of Armia KrajowaIn March you've commented on the Armia Krajowa article, which have eventually passed the A-class review. Since then I have been steadily expanding the article (my goal is to FA it one day), but in recent days a content dispute is threatening to destabilize this article; your comments would be much appreciated here.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 01:45, 8 April 2008 (UTC) Op En TFGood man! --ROGER DAVIES talk 10:00, 13 April 2008 (UTC) News!

i agreeWow i agree with ut thoughts about Kosovo and Russia.

Hi, I noticed that you closed the A-class review on the Erich Hartmann article. I assume that the consensus was that the article meets the A-class criteria. My question is who updates the Erich Hartmann talk page and elevates the article to A-class status? Thanks so much. MisterBee1966 (talk) 09:07, 7 May 2008 (UTC) IAR 95Tigre, I just ran across the IAR 95 page, and wondered if you might be able to improve this in any way, or at least have access to more sources. The Romanian article has more info, but appears to use the same (uncited/non-footnoted) sources. At any rate, I didn't see any edits from you on the page history, so I thought you might be interested in the aircraft if you hadn't seen the page before. Thanks. - BillCJ (talk) 02:06, 11 May 2008 (UTC) As one of the coordinators of Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/World War II task force, could you lend me some arbitration on a WP:NPOV point here? Many thanks! Neddyseagoon - talk 09:45, 12 May 2008 (UTC) Can you believe that guy?
Assessment issuesMy bitey comment was left because "Again, it does not meet by far criteria No.1." did not seem to be welcoming to me. It was obvious that the user wasn't aware of the alphabet soup of policy pages we have here, specifically WP:RS and WP:V. A much better response would have been an explanation of why it doesn't meet our criteria. It is easy to forget that some people haven't been around here as long as we have and don't know all the lingo, or even our basic standards. Woody (talk) 17:49, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi! I have a feeling these two will interest you - they're certainly in need of expansion, if you are so inclined. Biruitorul (talk) 22:46, 20 May 2008 (UTC) Just thought I'd ask if you were interested in joining the WikiProject. People have their names on it, but aren't very active, as far as I can tell. Of course, I'm guilty of this, too!

Re: QuestionI'd guess that the easiest way to go about it would be to put it up for another A-Class review (to consider both questions). Kirill (prof) 19:31, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
Eric BolsHi there. I've expanded the lead of Eric Bols if you wouldn't mind seeing if it now comes up to the quality expected of a B-Class article. Cheers! Skinny87 (talk) 18:21, 11 June 2008 (UTC) Thanks for the assessment - but I'm slightly curious as to why you've marked it as a no for structure? There's a lead, and sections, what's missing? David Underdown (talk) 11:50, 12 June 2008 (UTC) Aviation RegimentsThanks for all your hard work on adding the strategic bomber and transport regiments to this page. However one thing you did for readability, at least in my browser, doesn't help; the extra title lines, which display out of line after each section break. Would you mind if I removed them until we figure out how we can line them up properly (I'm sure there are experts round here to help)? Buckshot06(prof) 01:25, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
Hello. In light of the fact that it is the first book the U.S. government ever went to court to censor before its publication(!), I was hoping you could help improve the The CIA and the Cult of Intelligence article as part of an effort to make it worthy of becoming a featured article candidate? --Loremaster (talk) 14:13, 18 June 2008 (UTC) MapsHi Noclador, would it be possible for you to edit maps, therefore make battle maps if I provide you a model and all the informations? I can send you a model through email if you want.. Cheers, --Eurocopter (talk) 12:34, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
A-class review of Greco-Persian WarsYou closed this review premature. So far there were comments about what needs to be done to improve the article, but there was not yet a reply by Yannismarou who nominated the article for review. In such cases you should first ask whether there was work in progress before closing the review. Wandalstouring (talk) 10:45, 19 June 2008 (UTC) Please comment on the Cold War montageThe user wanting to add the montage is pretty insistent, and I've added what I can, but another editor adding $.02/€.02 worth of comment would be a good thing. Thanks! PS Thanks for all your work on the Cold War article. Hires an editor (talk) 14:07, 19 June 2008 (UTC) May wish to commentHi Eurocopter, you may (or may not) wish to comment at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Moreschi#Block_of_Mrg3105. Also, as above, see what you think of my changes at the Russian corps and divisions article. Regards Buckshot06(prof) 04:00, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
Integration of Stalin into the CW articleHey Eurocopter, I'm trying (without much success, I'm afraid) to integrate some material from the Stalin article into the "Containment" section. One of the problems is that many of the things in the Stalin article aren't referenced, and another is that while the CW article really does focus a lot on Truman, the Stalin article is a more general focus on world events, taken in a European then Asian context as it relates to the CW. The CW article does not really have much to say about what happened with Asia. I can see how Stalin would have thought himself surrounded...anyway...here's my (minimal) effort: User:Hires_an_editor/CWSandbox. Tell me what you think?

Cold War comments FACHi, thanks for completing my comments. I see you have done wonderful things with the article, and I thank you. I don't think I can fully support the article *yet* because of a discussion that has just gotten underway at the talk page. Anyway, the Cold War is a really interesting topic and I am available to help out with anything on the page if you need me. I know a lot about the Cold War period of the mid-to-late 1970s to 1991, so please let me know if you need any assistance.

Hi - I think this article should be of some interest to you. I could only find one real reference, but if you have more to add (like details of where precisely the forts are, or particulars of their design, or a photo), by all means go ahead and expand.

Good to see you pop on!I hope you're having a good vacation! Hires an editor (talk) 13:22, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
Welcome back!Thanks, Eurocopter, it's good to edit here again! ;) First of all, congratulations for all the good articles you wrote. You did a hell of a job, especially in the field of Romanian military history. Kudos to you! Secondly, sorry for not being here to help you guys, but I've been pretty busy lately... and I will be for a couple of years (working and studying at the same time do take a lot of my free time ...) However, I'll try to pop in now and then and give you a hand with any articles you guys think they need a good work-over. It's better that you coordinate this thing because I won't have much time for other issues than editing. Anyway, I'll be glad to help wherever and whenever possible. Thanks again and enjoy your vacation! Mentatus (talk) 07:18, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Dapiks (talk) 14:14, 8 July 2008 (UTC) Cold War FACHey...it seems that the FAC is going down in flames, so I went ahead and rewrote the "Containment" section, and broke it down into two pieces (so far): Europe and Asia. I also tidied up the prose a little bit, too. I'll be working on adding some sub-sections like "Culture and Media" or something like that to each of the sections to answer some of the concerns in the FAC feedback. I'm also going to try to add stuff about espionage and such to each of the sections for the same reason, rather than having a section for espionage. Ugh. I hate how large the article is, but I can't seem to do a whole lot to shrink it down. So it looks like this is still a work in progress. Hires an editor (talk) 01:43, 9 July 2008 (UTC) Michael The Brave linkEurocopte Tigre, I think it is a shame the "Transylvania" page has no link to Michael The Brave in its history chapter. Romania and Transylvania relations are not properly represented. You were very active in Michael The Brave page, you should do it! I dont think I am Romanio-centrist to ask for Mihai Viteazul being mentioned as part of Transylvanian heritage. You may contact me at gm@balimandira.com Mutumesc!

Image source problem with Image:MLI-84.jpg Thanks for uploading Image:MLI-84.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged. If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 14:56, 11 August 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Megapixie (talk) 14:56, 11 August 2008 (UTC) Russian Ground Forces1. 19th MRD. See List of guards units of Russia - it's not there. My source, Feskov's 'The Soviet Army during the period of Cold War' does not list it as a Guards formation, and the reference in the 2008 War article does not list the full name of the formation. I would guess that it is not a Guards formation. 2. Equipment numbers. IISS and Warfare.ru use different counting rules. IISS Military Balance 2008 lists 23,000 MBT, 250-300 T-90 by the end of 2008, 4500 T-80, 9500 T-72L/M, 3000 T-72, 4000 T-64A/B, 500 T-62, and 1,200 T-55. Then there's 15,140+ BMDs and BMPs, and 9,900 tracked and wheeled APCs. BTR-Ds, MT-LBs are the tracked and BTR 50/60/70/80/90s for the wheeled. So it depends what you count as in store, and in what condition. If you want to change the figures, go ahead, but remember to reference the change properly and remove the old reference totally, otherwise we'll have Warfare.ru numbers appearing to come from the IISS.
