January 2016

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a social network. Wikipedia is not a place to socialize or do things that are not directly related to improving the encyclopedia, as you did at Talk:American Airlines Flight 77. Off-topic material may be deleted at any time. We're sorry if this message has discouraged you from editing here, but the ultimate goal of this website is to build an encyclopedia (please see What Wikipedia is not for further details). Thank you. - BilCat (talk) 03:46, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

Discretionary Sanctions Reminder

Proposed deletion of Glenn Eagleston

The article Glenn Eagleston has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Does not meet notability guidelines. Did not receive Medal of Honor. Was not a General. Did not play an important roll in a significant event. Did not lead a large group into combat.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Disambiguation link notification for March 24

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Glenn Eagleston, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Yalu and Luke Field. 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.

Richard H. Carmichael

I took the article that you created on Richard H. Carmichael and ran with it, expanding it a bit and adding referencing. It have nominated it for DYK here, with you listed as a co-nominator since you created the article. You don't have to do anything. You will receive a notification when it runs on the front page.

Question Concerning Edit on Patrick Fleming Article

Ahoy, I was just curious why you scrubbed mention of Mr. Fleming receiving the David C. Schilling Award. I properly cited the Air Force Association website confirming his receipt of the award and it seems a noteworthy accomplishment. I appreciate your edits to the page and hope you will cite what you've added accordingly. If you wouldn't mind, please return the deleted portion to the 'Awards' section or provide an explanation for your edit. Cheers, Finktron (talk) 10:56, 18 June 2017 (UTC)

DYK for Richard H. Carmichael

On 11 July 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Richard H. Carmichael, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Richard H. Carmichael was shot down on 20 August 1944 while leading the 462d Bombardment Group in the bombing of Yawata, the first daylight air raid on Japan since the Tokyo Raid in 1942? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Richard H. Carmichael. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Richard H. Carmichael), 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.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Welborn G. Dolvin, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Army War College and Camp Pickett (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
