The better the shape the article is in, the easier it is to show that WP:GNG is met. Have a look at the Villa Castelli helicopter crash article and you will see that there is an infobox and the article has a defined structure. Bare urls are not good either. {{infobox aircraft occurrence}} is the infobox template. {{cite web}} is the template to cite websites. Use <ref name=xxxx>{{cite web |url= |title= |publisher= |accessdate=}}</ref> at minimum (you can copy and paste this). Other parameters may be added as required.

STOP

Coffee, for 48 hours, do not make any edits on my user talk page without asking me first. Thank you. Do not constantly revert. Thank you. Your cooperation will be helpful in calming a situation. Wowee Zowee public (talk) 20:03, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Per WP:OWNTALK, "users may freely remove comments from their own talk pages". There are a few exceptions, but I don't see anything you removed as being covered by those exceptions. Feel free to remove entries from your own talk page. If anyone wants to see what's been posted there previously, they need only check the history. Best regards, JoeSperrazza (talk) 20:53, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Thank you. You, Joe, are reasonable and do things to calm a situation. I, too, am trying to calm a situation. Wowee Zowee public (talk) 20:59, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Advice

You are in a hole. I suggest that you stop digging. Digging causes the hole to get deeper. Robert McClenon (talk) 20:32, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
