The WikiProject Barnstar | |
For your extensive contributions to the Military history WikiProject, as evidenced by your nomination in the 2008 "Military Historian of the Year" awards, I am delighted to present you with this WikiProject Barnstar -- ROGER DAVIES talk 03:55, 12 January 2009 (UTC) |
BH: Thank you for all of your hard work. I don't "do" graphics (so no barnstar), I therefore Mention you in Dispatches for your hard work on that article. Cheers V. Joe ( talk) 17:52, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
I've replied to your question on the AfD page as to why I think John Stagg is notable. Mjroots ( talk) 14:04, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
Hi. I am reviewing your article, SM U-14 (Austria-Hungary), for GA and have left comments at Talk:SM U-14 (Austria-Hungary)/GA1. I may be adding more comments, although reading through the article, all seems in order, except for the lead. Please do not hesitate to contact me with questions or comments. Regards, — Mattisse ( Talk) 17:12, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi, you re-ordered the table and unbolded the ship names. The result is that this table is now completely different in apperarance to all the others. I'd have thought it better to have a consistent format across these lists. Mjroots ( talk) 06:40, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
{{shipevents|1946}}
That would be a great help to me as well for the redlink fill-in. Also, have you seen this nav template: {{ TLS-L}}? While not ideally suited for what we would want, it may help a bit. - MBK 004 18:17, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

"Bergudi kikötőjében ismeretlen okokból elsüllyedt a 8 méteres vízben. Kiemelték, és a benne maradt egy embert még életben találták. A Danubius Hajógyárban rendbe hozták, majd átment Polába további javításra, azután próbautakat tett."
She/It (note: the sub) sunk in the port of Bergud for unknown reasons, at a point where the water was 8 meters deep. When brought to the surface a man was found inside alive. It was repaired in the Danubius shipyard, and then underwent further repairs in Pola, before taking some test trips. Hobartimus ( talk) 23:06, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

The Milhist A-Class medal with oakleaves | |
For your contributions to SS Washingtonian, SS Minnesotan and SS Timothy Bloodworth, promoted to A-Class between September 2008 and January 2009, I am pleased to present you with the first-ever award of the Military history A-Class medal with Oakleaves. -- ROGER DAVIES talk 15:25, 24 January 2009 (UTC) |
Well, I like it, but not as much as I do when it is used for spaceflights: 2008 in spaceflight. One thing, for the Caronia, she flew the British Red Ensign ( File:Civil Ensign of the United Kingdom.svg) as did most Cunard and P&O liners. More tomorrow... - MBK 004 08:07, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
Today, I went to review SM U-69 after seeing it on the GAN page (nominated January 9), only to discover that I had already passed it to GA status on January 4. Not sure what happened there, but I'm just going to go ahead and quietly remove it from the GAN page. Dana boomer ( talk) 02:02, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
I have recently reviewed this article. Could you please look at the review page? ErikTheBikeMan ( talk) 23:43, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for improving the article on the SS Dzhurma; nice job. Ekem ( talk) 15:44, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
I am sorry for those edits, I was looking, and didn't see much, it appears... It was at about 0130 for me though, so you can (hopefully) partially understand, and I am sorry for the inconvenience that it caused. TARTARUS talk 18:41, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

According to the article, MINS is across the river from Vallejo, California. Perhaps the ships built there belong in a separate category. What do you think? -- Stepheng3 ( talk) 20:34, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
Looks like I took that a bit too far. :\ Thanks for the fix! — Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 14:15, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
Hello Bellhalla, Please check whether I made satisfactory POV corrections in the Nathan F Cobb Shipwreck article. -- Wpwatchdog ( talk) 17:13, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
I've fixed the issues. That said, be aware that someone keeps adding back in the things I delete from the page (to address your concerns). If the issues magically pop back up, just rollback/revert to the my last edit to the article - at which point it will have been addressed. Cam ( Chat) 23:57, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Do you have time to knock up a graphic saying
in the same style/typeface as the "Bugle" logo please? -- ROGER DAVIES talk 13:35, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
Thank you very much. I've dropped it the dummy of the next front page. I'll ask Kirill to sort the html, it's not quite right. Thanks again! -- ROGER DAVIES talk 18:10, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
(od) Thank you very much. Kirill thinks the "gold" is a bit too bright. Is there any chance you could make it darker/redder? The other small problem is that the "map" is rather blurred (perhaps it has a "glow" treatment?). Finally, and please scream if this is impossible, can the gold be rendered with highlights, like real gold, rather than a flat colour? Thanks in advance for your patience and understanding, -- ROGER DAVIES talk 14:32, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Is it possible to alter the template so that it shows +/- 5 years instead of +/- 4 years? Mjroots ( talk) 13:43, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
Already?!? :) I know that I have to write a lead; I will get to it tomorrow. Thanks! — Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 04:57, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
The article
SM U-30 (Austria-Hungary) you nominated as a
good article has been placed on hold
. It hasn't failed because it's basically a good article, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See
Talk:SM U-30 (Austria-Hungary) for things needed to be addressed.

I've reviewed the article and left notes on the talk page. I've put the nomination on hold for seven days to allow the issues to be addressed. Feel free to contact me on my talk page, here, or on the article talk page with any concerns, and let me know one of those places when the issues have been addressed. If I may suggest that you strike out, check mark, or otherwise mark the items I've detailed, that will make it possible for me to see what's been addressed, and you can keep track of what's been done and what still needs to be worked on. Ealdgyth - Talk 19:58, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
I thought the citations were the strongest point! I thought I would have trouble with all the others! Given that I have most of the books given I can sort this out. I'll cover everything. Dapi89 ( talk) 23:05, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
