[edit] Commanding Officers

This article has an extensively referenced listing of the commanding officers of the ship. Those maintaining the article need to be aware that as a result of a recent discussion at the WP:SHIPS talk page, consensus has determined that listing the COs such as is done in this article is not appropriate and should be removed. The appropriate way to notate the COs is by mentioning them in the prose of the history of the ship. Instead of just blanking the section, I suggest that a stand-alone list be immediately created along the lines of List of commanding officers of USS Oklahoma (BB 37). If the list is still in this article in three days, I will remove it according to the newly-established consensus so the article will comply. -MBK004 21:31, 13 June 2010 (UTC)

It has been more than a week since I have left this warning. I have now removed the section per the new consensus. -MBK004 04:36, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Facebook disclaimer

i'm happy to take feedback where to insert my remark, that i place here in "Miscellaneous". Someone, a Mike i think, continually deletes my "clarification" about the citing of Facebook, and its hearsay authority! regarding a grave issue involving the skipper of the Enterprise, in the present day. I make this explanation for my EDIT, Facebook OPINIONS are "hearsay." A straight-up clarification is in order: Facebook may have legions of bloggers who LIKE the skipper, all of 'em serving as his "cheering section"--BUT WHY should we be counting up the Captain's fans, particularly in the context of a wikipedia FACTUAL entry, on the topic of the CVN-65 Enterprise? This facebook insinuation IS NOT NEUTRAL! The above note summarizes an EDIT i placed. and I quote my edit:_______ "Facebook does not claim authoritative status as arbiter of standards of professional or gentlemanly behavior; and postings on Facebook internet pages should not be mistaken for objective statements of facts, adjudicated or otherwise. Facebook followers' opinions of merits or demerits should be understood as opinions, in respect of unlitigated or untried claims or charges. Apparent endorsements of character, by Facebook's public bloggers are expressions of opinions of individuals only." ______ All my verbiage could be eliminated, if the offending remark about the skipper's cheering section (biassed with "Facebook" bloggers judgmental wisdom!) were removed. The Facebook remark is irrelevant to any pertinent facts or info about the topic "the Enterprise", and is only placed there to insinuate a "judgment" in an issue that is only now being opened, long before being decided or weighed on its merits. ____________oops,i forgot the squigg'lees: here ya go: Hispanosuiza (talk) 15:42, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

You were adding a disclaimer. Wikipedia does not do disclaimers like that. See WP:General disclaimer and WP:No disclaimers in articles. -fnlayson (talk) 16:44, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

[edit] U23 / Training

In 2007 the German submarine U24 was able to fire some simulated torpedos, took a picture and went up directely next to the Enterprise without any noticing by the Navy until the emergence.

Here is the article (in German) [1]

and here the foto the German crew has taken [2] (at the end of the page). --91.89.125.119 (talk) 15:37, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

[edit] In the Arabian Sea?

The most recent entry refers to her support of Operation Odyssey Dawn on the Libyan coast. Maritime News (marinelink.com) and a few other sites have reported her now supporting Operation Enduring Freedom in the Arabian Sea. I don't see this in the mainstream media (is it likely they'll think it important enough to report?) but this is this much merited ship's last deployment before decommissioning, if reliable sources come up with this (is marinelink ok for the purpose?, I'm meh on that) it should be for inclusion.--86.30.189.230 (talk) 21:58, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
