1940 Field Marshal Ceremony

Thanks for adding this article to Misplaced Pages. I was suprised when I saw it, that no one had thought of it before. Cheers, Kierzek (talk) 21:20, 25 January 2014 (UTC)

Oh, thank you so much. It really means a lot to me, I'm also very proud. Sorry for all the miss-edits and such, I'm fairly new on Misplaced Pages, which you probably guessed. By the way, you can to go my user page to see the other articles I created, I listed them all. Since it was my very first Wiki-article, I'm very protective over it, I'm sure you'll understand, thanks again for your words.

Hello, I've just reverted your addition of material on this event to the World War II article. The article on the war is deliberately written at a very high level, and this doesn't seem significant enough to include (the article doesn't discuss the careers of anyone at lower than national leader level). Could you please start a discussion on the article's talk page if you think that this warrants inclusion? Regards, Nick-D (talk) 22:06, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

It's ok, I don't really care THAT much. Besides if don't believe it should be there, I'm sure it shouldn't.

Hitler and Mannerheim Monologue: Weinberg reference

Hi,

I saw you added a reference to "Weinberg 2005" in your article Hitler and Mannerheim Monologue, but the actual citation is missing. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 20:14, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

Ok, thanks

Apparently Youtube is not supposed to be added as a reference, first, because it is content added by anonymous Youtube participants, and anything there could be a hoax; second, because it might be copyrighted video which has been posted without permission of the copyright holder, and Misplaced Pages is not supposed to link to such violations. The video seems to be from National Geographic. If that is so, where is a disclaimer on Youtube to show that they granted permission to someone to post the video? But there is a solution. Find out the date of oiginal broadcast of the edisode, along wiht the name of it, and just cite that as a reference. Even better, find where there is a print reference to it. It seemed like a possible hoax when I first happened on it, but on review it looks legitimate and of historical importance, so we should get it right. The translations you added may be copyright violations if you just transcribed them from the captions on the TV episode, unless Nat Geographic granted you permission to post them here. That seems unlikely, so they should not be included. Did the Finnish broadcastiong company post the audio with a translation? If so you should link to that.

Alright, I won't add anymore youtube-refs. The entire monologue is available many places, but I got hold of a translation I recorded from TV. I don't know where it's from though, but I can assure you it's all legit. It took me hours to write it all, but I did it for Misplaced Pages.

Battle of Caporetto

Jonas, I think that this edit to Battle of Caporetto is not appropriate. The lede is a summary of the article, and adding the Rommel paragraph is incorrect. The article itself mentions his achievement, and is in my opinion sufficient. Please note WP:BRD. Please do not put it back in until it has been discussed and agreed. I will repeat this on the article talk page. Hamish59 (talk) 20:32, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

Alright, if you insist, I'll give in.

Mannerheim recordings

I've just moved your addition on this subject to the bottom of the page where new posts go. It might be an idea if you add four tildes (4x~) before Sinebot signs it as mine. Britmax (talk) 18:41, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

Oh okay, I didn't know that, thanks mate.
