About reverting my edits on the AK page

I beleive you wrongfully reverted my edits. The name of the rifle has been heavily discussed on the talk page, and a conclusion was made that AK is the correct name. I replaced all mentions of AK-47 with AK (those that don't break links/images), and you reverted that edit. Please undo your edit, as I can't do it and it'd take a very long time to do it manually again. Thank you.

You need to discuss this on the article's talk page. As I understood the discussions, there is no consensus to change the name to AK. You're welcome to disagree, but not to make disruptive edits as you did. - BilCat (talk) 12:45, 23 August 2016 (UTC)

About reverting my Enterprise edits

Apoligies for my error there. I neglected to realize that was a DAB. Thanks. Aleding (talk) 00:34, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

No worries. - BilCat (talk) 00:35, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

AR-15

Can you help me out with a header message telling people to see the Colt AR-15 page? Basically the Armalite AR-15 is a military weapon, not the civilian semi auto clone and I think well-meaning people are getting confused. Thanks!--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 20:39, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

Done. There might be a better hatnote available, but that one works. - BilCat (talk) 20:51, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

Good man! Thanks!--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 20:51, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

I noticed that you have posted comments to the page Talk:Scots language in a language other than English. At the English-language Wikipedia, we try to use English for all comments. Posting all comments in English makes it easier for other editors to join the conversation and help you. If you cannot avoid using another language, then please provide a translation into English, if you can. For more details, see Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines. (Yes, I warned myself!) BilCat (talk) 12:55, 31 August 2016 (UTC)

What are you warning yourself before someone else can? ;) -Fnlayson (talk) 17:34, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

Yes, just in case this edit backfired, and if someone thought I being hypocritical, after I had already done this. :) - BilCat (talk) 17:45, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

• Got you, thx. -Fnlayson (talk) 18:16, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

Mini-14

I filed an ANI on the Mini-14 edit warrior sock--RAF910 (talk) 19:30, 4 September 2016 (UTC)

Thanks. That sockmaster has a long history, per User:Guliolopez/Draft. You might want to include a note about that in your report. - BilCat (talk) 19:39, 4 September 2016 (UTC)

Firearm Receiver

Either you or DHeyward has objection to the section I added on 80 percent receivers. They are widely available from many sources, and I think it is worth including in the article that they ARE available and the conditions under which a firearm might be built around one. Please see the article talk page. If between the two or three of us we can come up with a suitably worded section with acceptable references, I think we could all benefit. Thank you. 66.103.35.72 (talk) 21:01, 4 September 2016 (UTC)

I gave an explanation in my edit summary for why I made the revert. Nothing you've said on that article's talk page addresses those reasons. Instead, you mention people with agendas and late next night phone calls! I don't think any conversations between us will be productive. Bye. - BilCat (talk) 19:38, 5 September 2016 (UTC)

Help with Honeywell

Hey BilCat, thanks for catching that irrelevant addition to the Honeywell article. If you've got the time, would you mind taking a look at the changes I proposed on the talk page? I'd appreciate any help I can get.--FacultiesIntact (talk) 23:13, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

CETME

I think we should just start a new article called "CETME rifle" by copy/pasting the main body of this article. --RAF910 (talk) 17:05, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

I'm working on a draft right now. But, I'm on my way out and I don't think that I'm going to finish before I have to leave. If you want to go for it, be my guest. I can copy edit yours your version.--RAF910 (talk) 17:22, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Good job...that exactly what I was thinking. I made some changes, additions + references & deleted the tags as they are no longer needed--RAF910 (talk) 22:21, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Parishes of Jamaica

Goodnight. Concerning Kingston, I believe the correct name should be used in the table and if someone is confused, the article does specify the difference. Also if you say it should have the word "Parish" just because the page title has it then why not update all the other parishes in the table to have the word "Parish" since they all have that in their title? J.Aldred 04:34, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

Which other parishes have the same name as their capital/chief town? - BilCat (talk) 03:32, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

Just because it is unique does not mean you should put the incorrect information. I have issues with these because I have been seeing this trend across different databases and maps on the internet giving the parishes incorrect name because of the data they grab from here. If your aim is the clarify then use parentheses. So Kingston (parish). J.Aldred 04:34, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

Calling it "Kingston Province" would be incorrect information. Simply appending Parish to the name is harmless. Don't sweat the small stuff, and you'll live longer. - BilCat (talk) 04:05, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

My friend, my days are already numbered, even without me sweating the big stuff. So why not make a small difference before I go and fix the small things? J.Aldred 04:34, 13 September 2016 (UTC)
