Thank you for your review of Francis Wai. I noticed that knowone had taken action on correcting this article and as a major contributor to the article in the past I took it for action. I believe I have addressed all of your concerns with this article but in addition I have greatly expanded it, restructured things to flow better and did a number of other improvments. If I missed anything or if you notice anything else please let me know and I would be glad to fix it. I am also in the process of working on the Jose Calugas article and although I have done most of the things you identified plus some I still have more to do.

M22 LocustHi Skinny87! A while ago you inquired if M22 Locust tanks were used in Operation Pleshet, and my answer was negative. Recently I have discovered an interesting factoid about these tanks in the 1948 Arab–Israeli War—as part of the article Battle of Negba. Basically Negba's defenders disabled an Egyptian tank (a Fiat), which was disabled and reused by the IDF. However, the defenders were unsatisfied and wanted a tank, so they got a Locust instead, 5 years later. Cheers, Ynhockey (Talk) 13:52, 25 January 2010 (UTC) Hello. I'm looking to renominate 45th Infantry Division (United States) for A-class review. Last fall you opposed the article on the grounds it needed more secondary sources, and I have added several new books.

I'd misread one unit, when he went to a Garrison Battalion it was Prince of Wales West Yorks, not Duke of Wellington's West Riding as all his other service was. 4th August thinking he's off to India would make sense he embarked on a troopship on 17th August and arrived Malta 25th August. I suppose 1st P B Batt could fit with 1st P(WO) G(arrison) Batt - depends on his handwriting. I can tell you from his attestation that he was born August 1890, was previously a farm labourer and stood 5' 4". If you find anything else post it here as I've got this page on my watchlist.

Thanks for your comments. There are intentionally no sources or cites for reading purposes. In the talk section I just wanted the actual writing to be analyzed. The writing has unmentioned sources and cites that would be in the actual article. I would have to do a word count to find out if this summary is more concise then the current version in the USG article. I appreciate your comments on reading style. That is important. The section on Grant's Civil War career would be divided into subsections. There are separate articles on Ulysses S. Grant's presidency and his presidential administration scandals. The separate USG Civil War article is to be done for the 150 anniversary of the Civil War. I am against dividing the main bio article because it should cover USG's entire life. Can you point out where the style is stilted, informal, and biased? Cmguy777 (talk) 16:10, 15 June 2010 (UTC) You are now a ReviewerHello.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

Delivered by MessageDeliveryBot on behalf of Netalarm (talk) at 03:48, 23 September 2010 (UTC). Good Article Nomination and Peer ReviewDear Skinny87, I am hoping to make a brief return to Wikipedia to write/start/expand some articles regarding Spain's 1920-1927 Rif War, but before I do that (I am gathering source material for it, anyways) I have been working on the article Richard Cantillon. My objective is to bring up to Featured Article status. Unfortunately, WikiProject Economics does not sport such a thorough a-class review system as that of WikiProject Military History. Therefore, if you are not too busy, I wanted to ask if you would be willing to either look over the article's Good Article nomination or offer some input in the peer review. I hope to take the piece to FAC after the peer review closes. Thank you, JonCatalán(Talk) 17:20, 25 September 2010 (UTC) The Hamilcar page and the M22 and the Tetrarch light tanksTalk about a mess up. I put that link at a reference at that paragraph because I did not see that there was a Wiki page on the Tetrarch light tank in a previous tank. So you are correct it was wrong to have it as a reference link and to remove it. But then comes the problem. The US Popular Mechanics editors, not having access to a lot of British information -- and probably not military experts anyway -- assumed it was the American M22 tank. If you look closely at the photo in the Popular Mechanics link you will see it is the British Tetrarch light tank which the claim is being built by "the American firm of Marmon-Herrington". Which would be a big surprise to the UK company that did manufacture the Tetrarch tank! <GRIN> I have not made any more revisions on that page. And will let you judge which tank is being unloaded in the Popular Mechanics link.

AustralianRupert (talk) 23:19, 9 October 2010 (UTC) An update from adopt a userHi there Skinny87! You may be wondering, what have I done to sound the alarm this time? Nothing. I'm messaging you in regards to the adopt-a-user program, which currently has a backlog of users wishing to be adopted. This doesn't make much sense, as we have a considerable list of users offer adoption, so there shouldn't be any backlog. I've begun to eliminate this backlog myself through a matching program, but I need your help to make it work. Of course, adoptees and adopters don't have to go through there, but I believe it helps eliminate the backlog because someone is actively matching pairs. On the list of adopters, I have modified the middle column to say "Interests." It's easier working with other users that have similar interests, so if it's not too much to ask, could you add your interests in the middle column? For example, if I was interested in hurricanes, computers, business, and ... reptiles? I would place those in the middle column. Counter-vandalism and the like can also be included (maintenance should be used as the general term). The more interests, the better, since adoptees can learn more about you and choose the one they feel most comfortable working with. The information about when you're most active and other stuff can go into the "Notes" section to the right. Finally, I've gone around and asked adoptees (and will in the future) to fill in a short survey so adopters can take the initiative and contact users they feel comfortable working with. We all know that most adoptees just place the adopt me template on their user page and leave it - so it's up to us to approach them and offer adoption. So, please take a look at the survey, adopt those that fit your interests, and maybe watchlist it so you can see the interests of adoptees and adopt one that fits your interests in the future. Once again, thank you for participating in the adopt-a-user program! If you wish to respond to this post, please message me on my talk page.

Hello Skinny87, In this article, you have written "In Southern Command, 14,000 were ordered for use by forces in that area; twenty-four were to be issued to anti-tank regiments, twelve to troops assigned to guard aerodromes, eight per brigade and two for each Home Guard company. However, RAF personnel were forbidden from using the weapons, a restriction which was extended to the RAF Regiment when it was formed in 1942.[1]" It seems a little bit strange that 14 000 weapons were ordered and only 24+12+8+2 were delivered to the military units. Could you please check? Thanks and Best regards, Skiff (talk) 07:07, 4 March 2012 (UTC) The Bugle: Issue LXXII, March 2012

Military history coordinator electionThe Military history WikiProject has started its 2012 project coordinator election process, where we will select a team of coordinators to organize the project over the coming year.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact one of the current coordinators on their talk page.

I'm leaving you this message because you have previously been involved as an adopter with Wikipedia's Adopt-a-user program. A clean-up of this program is currently underway, and as part of the process I am trying to find out who is and isn't still interested in remaining an adopter. If you would prefer not to be part of the adoption program anymore, you need do nothing; when the overhaul of the project is completed your name will be removed from the list of active adopters. However, if you have current adoptees, an active adoption school or an interest in adopting in the near future, then please let us know by signing here. If you want to remain in the project and can currently take on more adoptees, there is a serious backlog at Category:Wikipedians seeking to be adopted in Adopt-a-user; it would be enormously helpful if you could take on one or two of the users there. Please do keep an eye on the project for upcoming changes, we could use your opinions and your help! Yunshui 雲水 09:20, 19 September 2012 (UTC) The Bugle: Issue LXXVIII, September 2012

Hi, I notice you have left some information on the above talk page for some time. It looks like it is could go in the article but without knowing the original source I am unwilling to do this. As it is not really appropriate to leave such information on a talk page for so long I am going to archive it in a few days or so I thought I would let you know so that you can incorporate it into the article if you wish. If you don't read this message before the material is archived it will still be available in the archives.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone. The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.
