Aeroperu Flight 603Hello there Sam, I'd like to discuss with you about the summary of the crash of Flight 603. I would like to ask why spatial disorientation? I believe it was a factor of the accident as the crew did not know what their airspeed was or their altitude? I am just wondering thats all and i'd like to have a friendly conversation about it that's all. OrbitalEnd48401 (talk) 16:05, 7 November 2018 (UTC)

Heads up re the above
Hey I’m mumtaz pls stop annoying me thx bye ♥ West Caribbean Airways Flight 9955Thank you for adding that image and caption. However, even though the image you added is an LET L-410 Turbolet, that was not the aircraft involved. Its registration is HK-4146, not HK-4161. In addition, the aircraft was not in West Caribbean Airways livery and the phot was uploaded after the crash.. This is actual aircraft involved: https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/424009 Tigerdude9 (talk) 20:44, 23 November 2018 (UTC)
Aéroperu 603 and CFITHey Sam! Good seeing you, I appreciate so much with what you’ve done with aeroperu 603, it’s the accident that I’m most interested in. Anyways, I included it in the list of planes that have CFIT. But a user removed it as they claimed it wasn’t a CFIT accident. Well it is after your conclusion and I back you up 10000%. Anyways if you cold that’ll be ace. Also good news! I left another talk message on Aeroperú 603 as I found the CVR on YouTube so I was thinking if we should include a link to it so viewers can listen to it. Links still there if you’d like to listen to it and to back your CFIT theory up. Thanks Alex :) OrbitalEnd48401 (talk) 22:41, 3 December 2018 (UTC) Say also, could you describe what these are and the difference please? Spatial disorientation and situation awareness? Thanks Alex :) OrbitalEnd48401 (talk) 22:50, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
I did read that report you linked on the talk page which is why I supported you on that issue. Regarding the incident of the accident I have read a lot on it so links to u info regarding the crash are not needed but thanks. And I’ve made my own notes on both spatial disorientation and situation awareness. Thanks for the help man
Hey Sam, I was wondering if I can include the CVR? See the pages talk page for details. OrbitalEnd48401 (talk) 09:38, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
Hi Sam, I think your revert there was rather bitey, seeing as it would've been relatively easy to fix that user's mistake, which I more or less did before noticing your edit. At least it would have been easier to fix than that user's other edit. Graham87 07:32, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
HelpHey Sam no worries man. Thanks for being really polite me. Just in case I haven’t said. I have autism so I struggle to understand things at times. But aeroperu 603 is personal to me that’s all which is why I work really hard on it that’s all. But yes I do have a questions. Do you trust the ASN database?

Heerema Marine Contractors user constantly deleting and reverting edits without discussion and leaves aggressive messages behind on my talk pageHi Samf4u, I have been editing the Wikipedia article about Heerema Marine Contractors and I have only added information with refs, added a photo and have removed edits without any refs. However, a user called Ddalgleish is constantly deleting and reverting all edits without going into discussion about it with anyone. Ddalgleish has also left a rather aggressive and rude message on my own talk page. Ddalgleish has also reverted your edits in the article and Ddalgleish has also deleted your message on his own talk page. It seem like Ddalgleish is trying to delete all information about the Nazi history of Heerema Marine Contractors. Would you be able to protect this article from Ddalgleish? Thanks--Jrmikedome (talk) 20:29, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
Den vassa eggenHi Samf4u. Regarding your reversion of my change to Den vassa eggen, is there a better word we could use for the Swedish word "pukor"? "Timpani" (the word I used) is a direct translation. Maybe "tom toms" would be more accurate? I'm helping out with the Wikipedia:Typo Team and the spelling scanner is choking on "pukor."

Ran Ronen (Pekker)Hey Eric I just started a page on Ran Ronen-Pekker and was hoping you could take a look at it (I’m pinging a few other editors too). There’s a dearth of online English language sources for him, so I pulled a lot of it from books, Hebrew websites, and his Hebrew Wikipedia page. I think the work needed is as follows: 1) Sourcing. I’m pretty sure everything on the page as of now is factual. If there is no ref, I probably got it either from a source which isn’t too reliable, or the Hebrew page. please help find a source as opposed to simply removing it. 2) Restructuring. 3) Clarification of the various bodies and organizations mentioned. I.e., squadrons and officer ranks might have a more correct English term for them. 4) wikilinking. 5) naming. In Hebrew most mention him as Ran Pekker. In English it’s usually Ran Ronen. 6) formatting Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated! Hydromania (talk) 03:22, 13 January 2019 (UTC)

Vandalism vs disruptive editingHi Samf4u, thanks for helping to deal with the now-blocked editor in the Kebab Turki Baba Rafi article. I just wanted to point out though, that what they were doing was not vandalism, which is a malicious and deliberate intention to damage Wikipedia. Editors who are edit-warring and pushing an unsourced POV or their own interests (as this user was), even if they disregard any and all content and behavior policies, are nevertheless not vandalizing. It's important to make that distinction if you're using Huggle/Rollback to revert edits without an edit summary, and especially if you revert multiple times. It means that you actually broke the three-revert rule today, and technically could have been blocked yourself for edit warring... For the same reason, it would have been better to use the "disruptive" warning template instead of "vandalism". Just something to keep in mind in the future, and thanks for your understanding. --IamNotU (talk) 17:41, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
While writing this, I happened to notice some complaints above, about the use of rollback without edit summaries, and leaving vandalism templates, for problems such as grammar errors. Maybe you know this already, but instead of using the "revert and warn user" button in Huggle, I think you could avoid these complaints by using the "revert edit" button, and use the drop-down arrow to select an appropriate edit summary. This should be used when reverting good-faith edits that have errors. That way you avoid leaving unnecessary vandalism warnings that could upset the user, and could add up and get them in trouble. "Revert and warn user" with the default vandalism warning should only be used for intentionally destructive vandalism and nonsense edits. In the case where it's not clear whether a nonsense edit is malicious or just a mistake, you can use the drop-down arrow on the "revert and warn user" button to select the "test edits" template, or for edits that are unsourced POV-pushing, the "unsourced" template, and so on. I hope this helps... Your anti-vandalism work is much appreciated, and you definitely deserve the barnstars you've been awarded for it! --IamNotU (talk) 20:36, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
Aeroflot Flight 593You might have already seen this on the the talk page, but I agree with you about how we should keep the CVR transcript. I posted a lengthy response, but no one has responded back. Could they be thinking it over? Tigerdude9 (talk) 16:06, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
That's excellent! Some of that dialog with the time spoken could be incorporated into the article. - Samf4u (talk) 20:41, 27 June 2019 (UTC) A little more care with Huggle pleaseHi, can you just take a little more care when reverting edits using Huggle. This and this while they might have removed some sub-optimal promotional material re-introduced an uncited BLP issue regarding the subject. So please check the diffs before reverting especially if you are going to revert several edits, sometimes it's better to do things manually. Thanks, Nthep (talk) 16:57, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
Columbia TNThe focus on Columbia Tennessee's history of racisim is absolutely revalavant and should be acknowleged in depth on the city's page as well as the pages of many other southern towns who have in the past committed the same crimes against humanity.

I'm not sure what "reliable source" to use when speaking of the sale of this home in 1946 by my great-aunt, Martha Ellison Gilman. I'd like to know what the "reliable source" was for the original citation that the home passed out of the family in 1929.'Bold text' In that year, 3 of the 4 children of Charles Jervis Gilman were still living in the home - Charles Ashburton, Elizabeth Jervis, and Mary Gardiner. The eldest, David Dunlap Gilman, had died in December 1914, six months after Martha married Charles in her home town of Richmond, VA. My grandmother and mother moved into the home in 1936. Charles died 8-8-1937, Elizabeth died 12-18-1938 and Mary, who had been head librarian of the Curtis Memoral Library in Brunswick for 41 years, died 10-7-1940. None of Charles Jervis Gilman's 4 children had children of their own, so the home was inherited by Martha. I do have a copy of Mary's will stating such. As the trust of Gardiner Gilman of New Hampshire, which had supported the four siblings, ceased upon Mary's death, Martha maintained the home as long as she could. She held two auctions of the furnishings and then sold the home in 1946. I do not have a bill of sale but I do have newspaper articles advertising the sale. Unfortunately, these are packed for our upcoming move from Missouri to Delaware on March 20. Yes, after the sale this house was turned into apartments. It is a sad sight today. The stately grounds are gone. A line of trees has been planted right up to the former front door and a house has been built immediately on the other side. The flower and vegetable gardens have been replaced by a parking area for the tenants. The house is in poor condition. My father attended Bowdoin College so I have had many occasions to see the home over the years, most recently in 2016 when we scattered some of my mother's ashes at Saganook, the summer home on Casco Bay which Martha owned from 1922-1946. 1946 was a tramatic year for my mother, losing both of the homes with which she was most familiar.

Regarding the warningPlease see my talk page and Deeday UKs talkpage I wrote an essay on their. OrbitalEnd48401 (talk) 16:47, 22 March 2019 (UTC) You all dislike the way I edit on Wikipedia, when it comes to the way I’ve done summaries, dates and rewording stuff. Look I do not ignore you, I see some now I say some of the advice you give me is were I disagree, I always stood by reliability, I always have, yes I keep summaries short and I tend to try and make them in order whenever possible, but I’d like to open a discussion about my recommendations as I feel like A) the wording of some stuff does not sound right when you say it out loud. B) the way captions are done on images, I think they should be done as: registration, aircraft involved / similar and then month and year. C) summaries should not be very vague saying Crahsed on landing for example. It doesn’t state why it happened or what caused it. As with just about every accident you have a reason on what caused said accident. I love being here don’t get me wrong, but I was a huge user before I joined as my courses at college relied on your references and info. And countless times there are things that are worded correctly, I find this frustrating as yes it should be in clear English, but there are the same pages made in a different language. Look my autism is not making a mess, as I am very observant when something is out of order, why don’t I voice my opinion on the talk page? Because all I get is it’s always be like that and I would like to hold some kind of big discussion, it might seem impossible but I can’t keep my mind off some the things that sound incorrect.

Boeing manufactures the plane, the MAX, the one that was recalled worldwide due to the two crashes, the one this year, and the one last year.

Rotary vs. Radial EngineA radial engine has pistons arranged in a radial or circular pattern with pushrods and crankshaft. A rotary engine, also called a Wankel rotary engine has no pistons and no crankshaft. It has one or more often triangular rotors to turn a driveshaft with gear teeth instead. The radial engine was used in ww 1 airplanes. The rotary engine which did not exit until later was used in some Mazda cars such as the RX-7, and in some small helicopters. Thoughts of resulting confusion from the mixing of these terms is infuriating, after I set about correcting it and the problematic know-it-all uncorrected it all over again.

@Samf4u: I was trying to roll back the edit that changed gas mask to ass mask. If I unintentionlay changed it back to ass mask it was not my intent. I think we can both agree that ass mask is not correct.

Outward Bound SingaporeHi, I am new to Wikipedia and I am not sure how to cite the sources. However, you could have did a simple Google search and find out that the information I have provided is true, instead of simply removing it which reversed all the effort that I have made. Wikipedia is a community effort. Whatever that you have did is rather discouraging. --Sgben (talk) 05:29, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
TYfor this one. Not only is it a favorite of mine, but it's actually an article I link to on my user page. Somehow a "ping thanks" didn't seem to be quite enough.

Germanwings Flight 9525Hi, i've noticed you've been disagreeing about the callsign. I'd like to ask : DO YOU KNOW HOW FLIGHT DESIGNATOR Codes work ? GWI18G is actually an ICAO code but may be referenced to as a callsign because it appears on ATC screens but, is therefore interpreted as :"Germanwings 18 Golf" (Golf is the phonetic word for "G".

Titanic IIThank you for reverting the recent edit of Titanic II. There are two replica Titanic projects going on. The Romandisea Titanic is under construction in China, although it is proceeding very slowly. That one will be permanently moored in a reservoir and won't be going anywhere. The Clive Palmer project is intended to be an ocean-going vessel. It is not under construction but marine architectural firm Deltamarin says that they are still engaged in the project. A shipyard contract has not been announced. If curious you can review the Titanic II talk page with the editorial comments regarding the progress (more accurately, lack thereof) of this project.

Inconsistiency Between UPS Airlines Flight 6 '"See also" Section and Asiana Airlines Flight 991 "See also" SectionHello, Samf4u. I noticed that when you reverted part of my edit on the Asiana Airlines Flight 991 article, you removed ValuJet Flight 592 from the "See also" section. However, ValuJet Flight 592 still appears on the UPS Airlines Flight 6 article. Should I re-add ValuJet Flight 592 to the Asiana Airlines Flight 991 article or remove it from the UPS Airlines Flight 6 article? Thank you. Why can't I edit Userpedia?

Sorry for abusing youI am sorry for abusing you. To be honest, right before I was blocked I was going to comment on your talk page and abuse you like WilliamJE, by saying you'll quot Twitter just like the European colonialists quit their colonial territories. I crossed a line by abusing you in edit summaries and by trying to comment on your page, even if I did it in anger out of being told what to do. That was no excuse for my behaviour, I knew it was wrong but I discarded it after getting furious. I've realised that I cannot simply do what I want, like I did at the Karachi plane crash article, even if I feel it is incorrect. For that I'll like to apologise. Please accept it.

NPP Sorting can be a great way to find pages needing new page patrolling that match your strengths and interests. Using ORES, it divides articles into topics such as Literature or Chemistry and on Geography. Take a look and see if you can find time to patrol a couple pages a day. With over 10,000 pages in the queue, the highest it's been since ACPERM, your help could really make a difference.
In late February, Google added 5 new languages to Google Translate: Kinyarwanda, Odia (Oriya), Tatar, Turkmen and Uyghur. This expands our ability to find and evaluate sources in those languages.

Air India Flight 182Does the fact that Jennie Adams the Ticket agent who let the terrorists bag and bomb on to the plane when the terrorist had no ticket and therefore the bag should not have been allowed onto the plane according to the anti terrorist rules at the time have anything to do with why the plane blew up? YES it does! So you are saying the bomb she let on the plane against the rules has nothing to do with the article even tho it explains how it happened? How do you think the ONLY reason the plane was blown up by the terrorist? Is not constructive to the article? Do you think disallowing such an important fact in a trial, paper even news paper report would be clearly biased reporting? This is what I said "Does the fact that Jennie Adams the Ticket agent who let the terrorists bag and bomb on to the plane when the terrorist had no ticket and therefore the bag should not have been allowed onto the plane according to the anti terrorist rules at the time! Should it be in the article as it the ONLY reason the plane was blown up by the terrorist bomb that should not have been allowed on the plane!" Is anything incorrect with what I said? Which rule do you claim it breaks? How do you think it breaks that rule? Please explain! (I look forward to you avoiding the point) --HalloHelloHalloHello (talk) 22:55, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

Semi-automatic riflesI don't understand how the sentence "Semi-automatic rifles are an excellent candidate for self-defense" complies with Wikipedia's policy that articles present a neutral point of view. That's why I removed it. The material that was referenced was also not neutral, it was saying how great semi-automatics are, citing a gun enthusiast magazine. The point of the revision was not to describe laws but to explain that worldwide, it is rare for semi-automatic rifles to be used for civilian self-defense. This is accurate and neutral as far as I can see. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.219.227.30 (talk) 11:22, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

Invitation to join New pages patrolHello Samf4u!
Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 15:21, 22 February 2024 (UTC) Question about your edits to "Chuggaaconroy"Hi there Samf4u! I was hoping you could give me some insight about the recent hubbub of activity at a YouTuber's page, Chuggaaconroy, that I stumbled across when reviewing recent changes. I reverted an edit that you had in part contributed to, as I had some concerns on both sourcing and BLP "DUE" attention to fringe gossip. Then, when I saw how much more experienced you are, especially in protecting the encyclopedia, I figured that I might be missing something so I came to your talk :-) I do not know who the subject of the page is, I'm an old fogey and totally out of the Youtube/gamer loop. However, I *did* see a bunch of IPs and accounts essentially warring to include what appears UNDUE gossip by my understanding of BLP guidelines: what particularly worried me was the edit warring over "he apologized for this reason, not that" etc, implying some POV/OR going on from different sides. The reason I fully removed the statement in question is that it's sourced to two very unreliable-looking blogs with zero legitimacy that I can detect. The second one was, in fact, clearly one of those sites that generates AI-driven prose in response to frequent search engine queries (oh how they are the bane of the modern Internet, imo). Perhaps I misread the situation, and again, you're clearly light-years ahead of me, so I trust your read on the situation much more than the apparent SPA IPs that are editing to get this into the article. Please let me know what your read on the situation is, and I'm happy to self revert if you have good reason for this bit of info being DUE at this time. However, I would want to search for a better source, as the two blogs cited previously really lack encyclopedic credibility from all I can see... if you think the info belongs I can do a little search and see if I can find a more appropriate source! Thanks and happy editing. Chiselinccc (talk) 04:13, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
