Sorry, I'm afraid you misunderstood. I don't have most of the books they have.

We don't have approved spellings, we have romanization guidelines :) For each individual person from your list, you should be using the spelling which is the most common in the English-language sources you are going to use. If you only have Russian sources, then use the WP:RUS default romanization&mdash;Arkady Bakhin, Alexander Galkin, Konstantin Sidenko, Vladimir Chirkin. If the English-language sources use different spellings inconsistently, then pick one that's closest to the WP:RUS default variant. Does it help?

*Hello, I'd like to discuss your edit if possible. I'm one of (horrible) Russian admins and I used to be on of the (terrible) arbitration committee members although I personally didn't take part in the rulings described. I think there are inaccuracies in your edit. While it is true that users had been blocked for behavior outside Misplaced Pages, I don't know any occasions when it was done "for critical blog comments about other Misplaced Pages users" unless you think that repeated abuse, name calling etc is a "critical comment". The admin/vandal story got lost in translation, too. She was desysoped mainly for repeated wheel-warring and the indefinitely blocked vandal having access to her computer and her knowledge of his accounts and passwords (similar circumstances weer sufficient for a desysop in Spanish Misplaced Pages) was just an icing on the cake. The "glass of water accident" did not involve an admin and had happened half a year later at a Wikiconference. Please, consider changing your edit. Thank you.--] (]) 21:35, 26 February 2010 (UTC)


I've asked {{User|Russavia}} to take a look at your request. He's an admin on the Commons, and since he deals with this kind of tasks all the time, I'm more confident in his ability to take care of this properly. Cheers,—]&nbsp;•&nbsp;(]); September&nbsp;2, 2011; 14:19 (UTC)

-- Buckshot06, I'm unfortunately involved in a "revision war" in the ] article. User Blabaaa insists on deleting an information footnote regarding casualties in the battle. I contend the footnote should remain as it points out how widely casualty claims can vary depending on source; user Blabaaa contends that is "Soviet fantasy" and should not be entered at all in Misplaced Pages in any form. If I'm wrong, then I'm wrong, and I may have violated the multiple revert rule -- but I can't even get the user to discuss the changes without it being reverted again. I think it is time for a third party to look at the issue as I don't see Blabaaa and I coming to agreement. Thanks, ] (]) 07:27, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

the MISLS participated in the battle of Okinawa. Some nisei soldier used violence to torture Okinawan civilians. Thereafter these civilians were handed over to a U.S. Lieutenant. Some civilians were shot.

during the occupation of Japan, through the formation of such organizations as the Civil Censorship Detachment (CCD), MIS linguists played an important role in News blackout.

== How much is too much (etc.) ==

First, I agree with your Notes/References breakout on the ] article. Since I've added notes to a number of USAF unit articles, I'll revisit them to make similar changes where appropriate.
Second, I have linked headquarters and subordinate unit external links in a number of unit articles. Since you have been Wiki'ing much longer than I, about how many such links would you consider to be not in line with the MOS? I have added them to a number of articles (but not as many as the 23d) but I'd rather not do a mass removal that is unnecessary.

"(Buckshot06 moved page 56th (London) Infantry Division to 56th (London) Division: No evidence this was called 'Infantry') (undo)"

I do not know about the First World War, however Lt-Col Joslen (p.92) supports that they were called an 'infantry' division during the Second World War after being designated from 1st London Division.
:There is however the case of the 23rd (Northumbrian) Division, he specifically does not include the word infantry in there title.
::I do have a copy of the book, however the division is outside the scope of anything else I have. I am a desert and Western Front man, not an Italian campaign person. I think until there is additional evidence, the status quo is fine.
:::Not much. I edit on a sporadic basis at the moment. I am in the final months of university so that has the majority of my attention. I don't know if I will edit like I use to, although if I did it would probably be on some Normandy related articles.

Hi Buckshot06,

W. B. Wilson here, browsing from Poland at the moment.

Happy New Year and I hope the Christmas was a good one. ? re: Soviet armies articles -- is there any particular format -- might not be bad form to use one, perhaps a format in an existing article about a Soviet army. At any rate, I expect to have more time on my hands in a couple of months or so.

I don't mind helping you out with this, but I should admit that the military terminology is not something I am very comfortable translating (I am capable of translating it, but I can't guarantee the quality of the output). However, I could supply the links to the articles about the populated places, if that helps you any. I wish I could help with the airports as well, but I don't really have anything to look them up properly, so it's going to be hit-or-miss there.

I've translated the portion you requested, but I want to once more re-emphasize that I wasn't very comfortable with the quality of my translation—it felt as if I was guessing, rather than knowledgeably translating, way too often. I hope the translation helps you get the idea of what all those facilities are, so you could then copy-edit it to conform with the established English military terminology. Let me know if there is anything else I can do. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 19:25, June 24, 2009 (UTC)

3rd Guards MRD

Happy new year to you too (and I wish I could continue my holidays till January 14...)! I'll take a look at this some time later this week, if you don't mind. Are you working with the verbatim ru-wiki version, or is your version a mix? Just want to clarify how much fixing I should be doing :) Best,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:38, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry about the delay; truth be told, I forgot :( Anyway, it's done now, although I would recommend you proofread it one more time and copyedit as necessary. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:18, January 20, 2010 (UTC)

No worries

Happy new year! I have the resources to do something useful, I'm glad someone took notice of my work! yeah sure i will try and follow the guidelines, i'll see how i go? Buckshot06 are you upset the fact that New Zealand scrapped the combat types of your airforce? take it easy ;(User talk:Lovetravel86); 16:38, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

Marinovka

Nope, it's just one of the countless villages in Volgograd Oblast; there really is nothing special about it. I've created a Marinovka set index for navigation; let me know if you want a (very) basic stub on the Volgograd Oblast village as well.

Soviet Air Defense Forces

Sorry, I'm afraid you misunderstood. I don't have most of the books they have. I have a very large library of books on the administrative divisions, with which their collection of ATD books has a great deal of overlap, but I don't have books on any other subjects they have. Of the books I own, none are on the subject of the SADF.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); June 25, 2010; 13:16 (UTC)

WP:RUS

We don't have approved spellings, we have romanization guidelines :) For each individual person from your list, you should be using the spelling which is the most common in the English-language sources you are going to use. If you only have Russian sources, then use the WP:RUS default romanization—Arkady Bakhin, Alexander Galkin, Konstantin Sidenko, Vladimir Chirkin. If the English-language sources use different spellings inconsistently, then pick one that's closest to the WP:RUS default variant. Does it help?

Dmitriyevka

Sure, will do. There are, however, five rural localities called "Dmitriyevka" in Orenburg Oblast, so if you have anything to add, it might help. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); August 15, 2011; 16:45 (UTC)

No problem; I haven't even started looking when I asked the question :) I've greatly expanded the Dmitriyevka set index. The Dmitriyevka you need is Dmitriyevka, Sakmarsky District, Orenburg Oblast. Will this work for you, or do you need me to create that stub as well? Thanks.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); August 16, 2011; 16:46 (UTC)
Hmm, this is getting a little confusing :) What is the airfield called exactly, do you know? Dmitriyevka is located in Sakmarsky District, but the settlement of Chebenki is in neighboring Orenburgsky District. The airfield is located at some distance from them both, although it is closer to Dmitiryevka than it is to the settlement of Chebenki (and it is in Sakmarsky District). I'll move the air base article to Chebenki (air base) and put a dab page at Chebenki, but let me know if there's anything else I can help with. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); August 16, 2011; 17:11 (UTC)
Ah, I've never seen that statement. It helps clarify the overall state of things quite a bit; thanks. Don't hesitate to let me know if you think of anything else I can help with. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); August 16, 2011; 17:19 (UTC)

Negative evaluation

the MISLS participated in the battle of Okinawa. Some nisei soldier used violence to torture Okinawan civilians. Thereafter these civilians were handed over to a U.S. Lieutenant. Some civilians were shot. It happened in June 24, 1945. during the occupation of Japan, some Nisei soldiers abusing prisoners and even civilians. A Japan Journalist think nisei are the worst kind of G.I.s.

during the occupation of Japan, through the formation of such organizations as the Civil Censorship Detachment (CCD), MIS linguists played an important role in News blackout. Between 1945 and 1949, the CCD nisei soldiers was responsible for reviewing all Japanese publications. The CCD eventually banned a total of 31 topics from all forms of media.journalists were banned from reporting the G.I.s Crime. .「The editor of the magazine “Emancipation News” was sentenced to− five years of hard labor(Braw1991,chapter7)」 Children's books are no exception.

How much is too much (etc.)

First, I agree with your Notes/References breakout on the 23d Fighter Group article. Since I've added notes to a number of USAF unit articles, I'll revisit them to make similar changes where appropriate. Second, I have linked headquarters and subordinate unit external links in a number of unit articles. Since you have been Wiki'ing much longer than I, about how many such links would you consider to be not in line with the MOS? I have added them to a number of articles (but not as many as the 23d) but I'd rather not do a mass removal that is unnecessary.

56th (London) Infantry Division

"(Buckshot06 moved page 56th (London) Infantry Division to 56th (London) Division: No evidence this was called 'Infantry') (undo)"

I do not know about the First World War, however Lt-Col Joslen (p.92) supports that they were called an 'infantry' division during the Second World War after being designated from 1st London Division.

There is however the case of the 23rd (Northumbrian) Division, he specifically does not include the word infantry in there title.
I do have a copy of the book, however the division is outside the scope of anything else I have. I am a desert and Western Front man, not an Italian campaign person. I think until there is additional evidence, the status quo is fine.
Not much. I edit on a sporadic basis at the moment. I am in the final months of university so that has the majority of my attention. I don't know if I will edit like I use to, although if I did it would probably be on some Normandy related articles.

Happy New Year

Hi Buckshot06,

W. B. Wilson here, browsing from Poland at the moment.

Happy New Year and I hope the Christmas was a good one.  ? re: Soviet armies articles -- is there any particular format -- might not be bad form to use one, perhaps a format in an existing article about a Soviet army. At any rate, I expect to have more time on my hands in a couple of months or so.

Cheers again,

improving the article

hello, i see that you're tyring to update the retired equipment of the turkish army.

could you please add your contrubitions to the List of World War II weapons of Turkey article instead? i've filled out a request that this article title be changed to 'List of former equipment of the Turkish Land Forces' so it will be much more logical.

thanks. 83.9.117.65 (talk) 20:10, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

I am really confused about your message.
(1) Why did you not post this request on Talk:List of equipment of the Turkish Land Forces?
(2) The material I am adding is about verifying and expanding the history of the TLF *after* World War II, from the first arrival of American equipment in the early 1950s; you will note the M1 Garand rifles from 1953 and the M47 and M48 tanks. In addition, all the retired helicopters entered service well after 1945.
Therefore I have reverted your removal of content which falls within the subject of the article. Please make a post at Talk:List of equipment of the Turkish Land Forces if you wish to take this further. Buckshot06 (talk) 22:28, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
