I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Yoshi24517 (Chat) (Very Busy) 19:59, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I overlooked my edits I made and I did not realize I had forgotten my sources! I was so confused when it mentioned I had been blocked until I looked at my notifications. I also forgot to add the simple terms of "mentioned" and "seen". It was not my intention to spread misinformation, I only wanted to show where I knew these people from in other sources. I realize that my edits could be seen as misinformation for unsuspecting people who wanted to read the page. And you have my most humble apology. I will keep in mind about the sources as I am currently making a page (or was) about the other source I knew these soldiers from. I am very sorry and I hope you can forgive me. - Gold Gear42

Decline reason:

I'm so happy to hear you have sources for your claims and it wasn't just vandalism. Please provide your reliable sources (WP:RS) for your claim that Zamperini was afraid of watanabe birds, that he reported hearing trumpets and the laughter of thousands before passing away, and that he stated he had been attending "The Feast".
