DYK for Fiat 130 HP

On 27 April 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Fiat 130 HP, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the 1907 Fiat 130 HP racer had wooden wheels? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Fiat 130 HP. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

I'm just now seeing all of the fallout of the sockpuppet activity on Universe Sandbox ². Great to know you had it under control! Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:25, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You couldn't even put a bet on that!

At 20:15 on 30 October 2015 you completed an edit on Peppa Pig. A minute later, on the same day, you edited John Wayne. Just how does your mind work? Cassianto^Talk 09:30, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There are some who would claim it doesn't :-) it was probably me just monitoring my watch list, which is an eclectic mess... Scr★pIron^IV 14:10, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Block Northway

Good work on removing the tenant list from The Block Northway. There is still a remnant of stuff about tenants (Dave and Buster, e.g.) in the article. Maybe you could revisit the article and fix it. I'd do it myself, but I'm unfamiliar with the rules regarding tenants. Lou Sander (talk) 18:15, 9 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed that. There is an essay - WP:TENANTS - that describes the Mall project's current consensus on what to include in shopping mall articles. Reading that should help. Happy editing! Scr★pIron^IV 19:14, 9 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The Beaumont children

Some of your information regarding the disappearance of the Beaumont children is factually incorrect and needs to be corrected The description of the man at the beach, what occurred at Colley Reserve and more It is simply not correct hence I am trying to correct this regards Stuart Mullins — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stuart R Mullins (talk • contribs) 12:31, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Stuart R Mullins: Please add a citation to prove that the information is true. Nigos (t@lk • Contribs) 06:06, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Gangal Awan

Hi Gangal Awan is A cast and Gangal is a village plz dont mix up both Its Three Villages Name Gangal One in Rawalpindi 2th in Attockand 3rd in Jhelum — Preceding unsigned comment added by Saadat Malik (talk • contribs) 16:09, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you wish to create a new article for the caste, then that is what you must explicitly do. Changing the existing town entry into a caste entry effectively delete's the town's article. You need to either create a new article for the caste, or start an RFC on the town's talk page to gain consensus to make the change. Scr★pIron^IV 17:30, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No Such Thing As An Assault Weapon

There IS no such thing as an assault weapon. It's just a made up, SJW leftist term used in order to scare people that don't know what they're talking about into giving up their rights to people with guns. Fact. https://defensivepopulace.net/there-is-no-such-thing-as-an-assault-weapon/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spottedfeather (talk • contribs) 17:24, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As a former infantry soldier AND a military historian, you are categorically incorrect. Fully automatic, military rifles - such as the AK-47 - are classified as assault weapons. The term is derived from "Sturmgewehr" and dates back to World War II. The term is often misused, but it is the appropriate term for this particular rifle in a military configuration. Scr★pIron^IV 18:11, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Assault rifle is an internationally used and widely recognised purely technical term (a direct translation of the German word "Sturmgewehr"), describing a type of weapon (a select fire, i.e. with provision for both single-shot and fully automatic fire, weapon with a detachable magazine, chambered for an intermediate cartridge) that can not be legally owned by civilians in North America, Europe and most other places on Earth, while assault weapon is a legal/political term used only in the U.S. (AFAIK), describing semi-automatic weapons with certain features, weapons that can be legally owned by civilians, at least in the United States. The two terms thus have nothing whatsoever to do with each other, and removing the term "assault rifle" from articles about military weapons that technically are assault rifles because of disliking the purely civilian/legal/political term "assault weapon" is a sign of utter ignorance. - Tom | Thomas.W ^talk 18:30, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

listen here

stop blanking the page, there's an AFD onging, gain a consensus. ApolloCarmb (talk) 17:45, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Adding the template does not blank the page, it merely hides it. There is a consensus, and you disagree. This was the second edit-warring warning you have required today. Continue, and you will find yourself the subject of an edit warring report. Scr★pIron^IV 17:47, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

See Talk:Jude Collins there clearly is not a consensus.ApolloCarmb (talk) 17:48, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
