Hey Nigel, I saw you added the 1912 Brassey's to the article - does it have anything on the Italo-Turkish War that Beehler doesn't? Thanks. Parsecboy (talk) 23:58, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
- I didn't happen to come across it while I was trawling Google Books, so if there's anything worth adding please do. Parsecboy (talk) 02:27, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
copyvio
Hi, I'm new to Wikipedia and I'm a bit confused. On the HMS Jersey page I re-worded everything in the 'Pre-war service' section so its not the same as the original source. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong!
Thanks Apocalypticdoom (talk) 18:55, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
- The text after you changed was still far to close to the source. It still read like the source and the reader could still tell that it was closely based in the original. You shouldn't just reword sources, but write the article using your own words to convey the information in the sources.Nigel Ish (talk) 20:33, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
Libia
Good catch on the VTE for Libia - was a poor copy-paste job from Dogali ;-) Parsecboy (talk) 01:02, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
No big deal :) - but as the 1st reference to the work (I know it's in the bibliog.) shouldn't it be a full one? — Saltmarshtalk 19:01, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- Not really, that's why articles have bibliographies.Nigel Ish (talk) 19:26, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Please would you visit the Talk page relating to No.255 Squadron and there (a) constructively join in the discussion about "splitting", also (b) set out your connection (if any) with the squadron. The result of a lot of difficult research work done by descendants of squadron members has, within the last few days, been deleted without prior discussion. 255 Historian (talk) 13:52, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 25
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited HAL HT-2, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Inline engine. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

No. 254 Squadron RAF
There is undoubtedly a copyvio on this article, but it is not of my making. Rather than the somewhat draconian action threatened of deleting the article, I suggest that the amendment of 07:24, 27 September 2013 (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=No._254_Squadron_RAF&diff=next&oldid=543086668) should be reversed, as this would appear to have been copied directly from the RAF website by an IP editor. I hope you concur that this action is acceptable. Regards, Lynbarn (talk) 08:36, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
