USS Texas (BB-35) copyedit
I gave a pretty thorough copyediting pass to USS Texas (BB-35). I have some thoughts, observations, and questions.
Note #13 "BATTLESHIP TEXAS (BB-35)" is a dead link. From the web address, I would surmise that it might not have been considered an RS for eventual FA consideration, but it is the cite for several items in the D-Day sections.#26 "The Sand Pebbles" link might be rejected as a non-RS, also.- In note #12, the phrase "German Luftwaffe" is redundant (arguably, at least).
- In the last paragraph of the "World War I" section, is the 40-mile figure nautical miles, as one would expect? The hard-coded conversion previously in the text treated it as statute miles, so I left it as that.
- In the "Rehearsal" section and the "D-Day" sections there are two somewhat overlapping lists of ships. I wasn't clear if they were two distinct units with overlapping and/or changing membership (heat-of-battle type shifts) or descriptions of the same unit from, perhaps, two different sources.
- Also, in the 2nd paragraph of the "D-Day" section, it seems like a similar situation about targets on Omaha beach. Like maybe the same actions are described, again, perhaps, from two different sources.
- doncram (talk · contribs), at my invitation, added the National Historic Landmark (NHL) information to the article. The NHL infobox he added is somewhat compatible with the ship infobox, so depending on how you want to go with it, it could be incorporated into the ship box, as well.
- For A-class and FAC, the lead section for the article should probably be expanded to four paragraphs. I might structure it as follows: the first paragraph could be fleshed out with some info on builder (who, where, when); a second paragraph to summarize up through WWI; a third for Interwar and WWII; and then keep the current final paragraph as the fourth and final paragraph of a new lead.
- I linked to a couple of men mentioned in the article, each of whom later had a USN ship named for them (Grant and McDonnell), even though both are redlinked now.
- I'm not sure of the significance of the "by hull number" in the last sentence. Is Texas merely the lowest numbered battleship that was made a museum ship, or was she the first (and coincidentally the lowest numbered) made a museum ship. If the former, I honestly don't think thats all that significant; if it's the latter—as seems to be currently indicated in the lead—it need to be reworded for clarity.
- Unless you have deep-seated reasons for retaining the current reference setup at the end of the article, it would certainly make for a cleaner notes section if the full details of books were listed in a "Reference" section with a citation of something along the lines of "Smith, p. 25." in a "Notes" section. (See USS Siboney (ID-2999), for example, of one way of doing that.)

- Yep, A-class will follow for the Montana's just as soon as GA-class is cleared. Also, above copy of the list in my sandbox has more items crossed off at the moment; you may want to check to see if you concur with the items I've crossed off and update the list accordingly.

New Project
Myself and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.
If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Misplaced Pages namespace. Thank you for your help. Useight (talk) 02:43, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Question about reversion of a minor edit
Hi MBK004,
I haven't been here for a while and just now saw that you reverted a minor edit that I made on the Buzz Aldrin page and left a message on my UserTalk page as follows:
- Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Buzz Aldrin, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. -MBK004 01:14, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
I am just curious as to why you left that message when all I did was edit the first sentence to include Mr. Aldrin's mother's name since the first sentence says that he "was born to..." and then named only his father. Surely, he was born to both his mother and his father, so I guess I just don't quite understand why you reverted it and left a message saying that it "did not appear to be constructive". Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this. ] (talk) 00:26, 6 May 2008 (UTC)]
- I got your reply on my talk page, thanks. I will add a reliable source - there are many. It would have been useful if you had simply asked for a reliable source initially instead of simply saying that "it did not appear to be constructive". Alternatively, it would have been useful if you simply added a tag, but thanks for the explanation. {Jazz2006 (talk) 01:01, 6 May 2008 (UTC)}
Highway 35 in Texas.
Hi, MBK004, I got a message from you about citing the things I added on State Highway 35 in Texas.. It's kind of hard to cite things on what I put about the highway when I live a block from the highway and travel it every day. I will try and cite what I can but just about everything I have put is what I see everyday or what I have known forever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.198.70.193 (talk) 22:44, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
USMC page
You reverted Fliegerfaust's edits incorrectly. If you click on the image to view it in large size, the soldier is quite clearly wearing Cpl. rank and wearing a nametape that says Lucas. I therefore reverted your edit, as the source is clearly included within the image. ⇒SWATJester 02:40, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Collapsible ship infobox?
At the peer review for USS Princess Matoika (ID-2290), TomStar81 (talk) said that you might know how to make infobox sections collapsible. Is that right? The box for the Matoika is really l-o-o-o-n-g, and, for aesthetic reasons, I would rather not split it into eight (or so) individual boxes. Thanks in advance. — Bellhalla (talk) 02:36, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Your Action regarding my corrections to the Implacable content
Sir,
With respect, I disagree with your position vis-a-vis my statements to the content on the page containing content supposed to be about the "Implacable Class" carriers of the Royal Navy.
The "flow" of the article is in need of being "disrupted"; it is inaccurate and misleading, both, and these are serious problems in an article of such brevity. You will note that I have cited my primary source, that I have written and edited other WK articles on HM ships, and that my corrections are matters of fact, not opinion.
So long as we continue to infer that Misplaced Pages content is verified---the caution that all content must be verifiable appears on every page, and one cannot but draw the inference from the statement---it is incumbent upon us either to do so, or to take significant action to correct the record when errors of fact---that is, errors which are at direct variance with specific factual records---occur, or when the opinions expressed are not supported by argument and are contrary to any established thought.
I do not argue that content must cleave to established thought, only that if content is to challenge an established viewpoint, it must do so in an organized, logical, and scholarly manner, with facts to support it.
However, an error of fact is a different manner altogether. I may disagree that Admiral Darlan was a Fascist, but the facts of the Implacables are not subject to interpretation---they did not owe any aspect of their design to Ark Royal (see my citation for confirmation of this fact). To write that they did is to misinform, which is contrary to the purpose of a reference, and does not improve the reputation of this site.
I have posted corrections to "Talk" pages before, only to discover that they never go any further. Perhaps you find it edifying to read these pages; perhaps you believe that users will peruse them before relying on the information in the article itself; I do not hold such views.
Where I can, I make minor edits (I just made such an edit on the page for the 'County'-Class 8-Inch Cruiser Shropshire). Where the content is grossly misleading or factually incorrect, I state so clearly.
Until some means is established whereby an entry containing clear errors of fact, or mis-statements not supported by facts, may be replaced by one based on facts, I disagree with the intent of your focus---its ought not to be the continuity of the erroneous page we concern ourselves with, but the accuracy of the information.
I should prefer that the article on the Implacables was moved to the "Talk" page and the simple statement of fact that I wrote be put in its place; but in any event, the errors of fact must be removed.
Thank you for your time and concern.
Very Respectfully, Caryn96 (talk) 07:20, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
Sir,
II would have preferred to email you concerning our differing thoughts on the Implacables entry, but cannot seem to find your WK email address, or any quick means of emailing you otherwise.
Thank You.
Caryn96 (talk) 07:21, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
Sir,
It would appear you have deleted my corrections to the Implacables page, rather than moving them as you inferred. As I am only able to see the "Discussion" tab ("old skins" as I gather from the "Help" pages), I am not certain, but it certainly appears that way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Caryn96 (talk • contribs) 07:33, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
My edit to USS Topeka (SSN-754)
Hello. I should have realized that a claim such as mine needs to be sourced. Thank you for noticing and taking the time to post on my talk page. To back it up, I cannot cite the blog in question (The Stupid Shall Be Punished ) because of Misplaced Pages guidelines on blogs. I could probably contact the blogger though - what could he produce to serve as verifiability? It's pretty clear from reading his blog that he is very knowledgeable about the blog's subject of submarines, and I'm completely sure that he indeed served in the Navy and on Topeka. I can't use that as a source, though, can I. Could you offer any advice, both about how to verify my claim and about whether you think all this is notable? KNVercingetorix (talk) 01:43, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Your Replies
I do not wish for the article to be replaced by "mine", so we are in agreement on that point, though I acknowledge the gratuitous tone. I wish the article to be made convergent with the facts. My paragraphs were intended to make clear the serious errors of fact present in the article, not to substitute for it---I have no objection to anyone writing a new, factually accurate, article, your own August Personage included. I confess I find it appalling that you are more concerned with style and form than with content. Why "the flow" of an article riddled with errors of fact is so much more important to you than the remedy of those errors, I cannot fathom.
If you lack the technical knowledge to understand my points, pray make use of my references; if you lack sufficient background to understand the technical points, help those of us who do to work with you to meet your style and form standards, while still presenting useful and factually correct information.

Re: Your message
Hmph. Perhaps destoyers just don;t have any wow power to motivate people like the battleships do. At any rate, that is interesting, the contributer who worked to bring HMS Ledbury (L90) up to A-class should get a barnstar or something for being the first to get there. TomStar81 (Talk) 07:56, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Well, the battleships always have commanded great attention, so I guess its only appropriete that they get first dibs for attention. And we are working on the Carrier: HMS Ark Royal (91) is closing in on featured, albeit slowly (she just recently failed an A-class review). (Incidentally, thats going to look real bad for the States if the britis get a carrier to FA status first, but I'm not complaining :) TomStar81 (Talk) 08:06, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Axe that: HMAS Melbourne (R21) is an FA-class aircraft carrier. I guess we do have one after all. TomStar81 (Talk) 08:11, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Well, if you want to up the ante, you could work on a carrier of ours that is presently a muesuem ship; in this way, we could technically have a stake in the "firsts" since no featured carrier article here is a meusum ship yet. TomStar81 (Talk) 08:16, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Man your lucky. The only meusum ship I have ever been on is Niagra, and thats sort of a technicality since Niagra was rebuilt after raising. Lex should be next then, before we fall to far behind our carrier operating breathern. On a seperate note, I think the states have claim to the first featured warship because I do believe that Missouri was the first warship to be featured (certainly the 1st battleship), so we get bragging rights there anyway :) TomStar81 (Talk) 08:20, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Someday, I suppose, I'll get to tour these great ships. In the meantime we got plenty to keep us busy here. I went ahaed and dished out a WP:SHIPS barnstar to the A-class nominator for Ledbury, correcting that oversight. I am trying to rebuild Iowa, but have put it off until after the Monatanas clear FAC. And I have located some new info I intend to add to the Iowa class article sooner or later. (more the former than the latter since I go back for summer school June 9).

Good luck with the Wisdom Teeth; I had mine pulled about five years ago, and it was...an uncomfortable experience, mostly for the first 48 hours, owing to the swelling of the cheeks. With regard to T&A 08, try and put in a little effort for the "phase two" reload, Roger is going to try and get the drive relaunched in mid june, and I promised I help by starting then to try and regenerate some interest for the those editers who are throwing in the towel. As for the inquisition: I am ready to go (aside from my nervouness, but people can't see nervousness when edit from behind a username); I'm just waiting for Roger to get the nom up and running, then answer the question and see what happens. With any luck, the third time really will be the charm :) TomStar81 (Talk)

Palmer Station Citations
You called for more inline citations on the Palmer Station article. I am happy to do what I can, but I would appreciate it if you could be more specific. The guidelines requiring cites say "They are appropriate for supporting statements of fact and are needed for statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, including contentious material about living persons, and for all quotations."
I see few statements that are contentious or likely to be challenged, so the "need" part is unclear. As for statements of fact, much of the article has been written by individuals who have spent a lot of time at Palmer Station and some the facts are based on personal knowledge or experience. While in a scientific paper you might see a reference to a "personal communication", in this case some of the facts I see are really information being transmitted by a primary source.
Your advice on how to handle this, please, and examples of things you recommend citations for would also be appreciated.

Re:Triple Crown
Already there :) Just waiting on an answer to the questions before moving forward. TomStar81 (Talk) 22:42, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
- BTW, in answer to your A-class question: I wouldn't link just the hull numbers; from where I sit there wouldn't be enough context for the link and the material would be better covered in the Iowa class battleship article; however, if you wish to link the hull numbers you are more than welcome to. Who knows, it may be a hit with the project people. TomStar81 (Talk) 23:28, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
- Alright then. Hopefully, this FAC won't be as controversial as the Illinois FAC (I'm still have nightmares over that nom...)

According to Misplaced Pages:Wikiproject Military History#Scope the articles does not fall underneath the category:
Note that military service does not in and of itself place an individual within the scope of the project—particularly in the case of service in modern militaries. To qualify them, an individual's military service must have been somehow noteworthy or have contributed—directly or indirectly—to their notability.

USS Camden
Hi MBK,
I see that you reverted my edits on the two USS Camden articles. Would you mind directing me to the guideline you mentioned that introduces an exception to the guideline I cited? I tried WP:SHIPS, but I couldn't find anything applicable, and as it was a WikiProject, it wouldn't have been binding if solely located there anyway. I tend to have to cite this particular guideline quite frequently, therefore it would be very helpful for me to know of any exceptions.
