locked page
I assume the fact that the page is locked is somehow related to the lack of mention in the first paragraph of the main thing the subject of the article is known for, ie his involvement in the Iran-Contra Affair? 2A00:23C5:1203:CE01:5538:E689:294C:D34E (talk) 12:39, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
BLP issues
Recent edit labels North 'former drug smuggler', looks like straightforward BLP violation, deleted. Please discuss here before reinstating. Rgr09 (talk) 02:41, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
Email dated August 23, 1986
I am not saying this is wrong but I don't think this would be an email as we generally understand it in 2021. The internet and emails as we know them came out around 1991. Does this need clarification in the main script? 188.221.24.17 (talk) 18:33, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
- It wasn't that unusual in the Pentagon/defense establishment by that point. One of the sources indeed mentions emails by the NSC at that time.Rja13ww33 (talk) 20:34, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
Book the giant awakes
I have ordered and received two copies of this book and both have been misprinted. Please advise. 23.119.184.26 (talk) 01:10, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
