I didn't just remove the references, I removed the whole sentence. That sentence was left over from the "origin of name" section that was blanked. Perhaps it was intentional, but that particular line didn't sit well with the rest of the History section, and you can't have a whole paragraph devoted to just that single sentence.

:Yea, I noticed it seemed out of place, but I also saw four references removed. My suggestion when you remove any amount of material (or add it), attach a semi-detailed edit summary so people like me don't revert constructive edits. --[[User:Andyman1125|Andy]]<sup>[[User talk:Andyman1125|Speak to Me (Breathe)]]</sup><sub>[[Special:contributions/Andyman1125|Contribs]]</sub> 18:14, 26 December 2010 (UTC) |

If you are here because of a vandalism notice on your talk page and the edit you are responding to came with the (HG) tag in the page history, keep in mind that this edit was made quickly while I was patrolling recent changes for vandalism. While I am responsible for the edit, I probably am not directly involved with the article in question and may have made a mistake, like all humans. If you think that your edit was correct, try again with a detailed edit summary and a reference for verification before leaving a message here. If the notice had no tag or the (TW) tag, then please disregard this message. |

Please revert the POW Medal page to include previous links
Sir, I am not sure why you removed the links I just posted. I am adding the primary sources to the legislative material behind the awards. I authored virtually the entire page... Can you please undo this?Foxtrot5151 (talk) 02:22, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry if it was a mistake, but when I saw that mediafire links had been included into the article, little alarms went off in my head as vandalism. I'm not one to trust sites like that. What do the links go to? Why do they need to be included into a Wikipedia article? --AndySpeak to Me (Breathe)Contribs 02:26, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
They make the article more scholarly- they are links to all of the actual files being cited uploaded to medifire in pdf form. I'm working to fix the policy for this medal with the House Committee on Armed Services, and I want the service-level policy proponents to be able to access the actual files. I'm not very experienced with Wikipedia, but that was almost two days of work you erased. Can you please undo this? I added to several sections as well as the file links.
- Well, for one thing I just reverted one edit, which can easily be undone. And it was just a misunderstanding, because I've seen plenty of example where people will try to promote their whatever by posting links to youtube or rapidshare or mediashare in an article. My one recommendation: for professional purposes try putting your links like this [ http//:www.example.com Link name ], where there is a single bracket "[" in front of the link, then put a space after the link and put a more professional looking title and then another bracker "]" after that. Now, instead of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page, it looks like Wikipedia Main Page.
- Sorry for the inconvenience. And, I'm assuming your username alludes to the Genesis album of the same name... If so, I like it! =) --AndySpeak to Me (Breathe)Contribs 02:41, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
The Gujarat Page
If you want to keep that one sentence in the history section then re-write the origin paragraph. The user that blanked the origin paragraph (which was a good edit in my opinion) included that line in the general history section (perhaps by mistake).

- I reverted your edit because you removed four references. You can reword the sentence any way you wish, just don't remove referenced materials. Thanks, AndySpeak to Me (Breathe)Contribs 04:48, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
