Hi could you please explain your revert of the article Plata O Plomo (Fat Joe and Remy Ma album) As it stands, the background is incorrect as the album is in reference to the Netflix series Narcos the reference given on the page does not relate to the album itself. Fat Joe has in interviews leading up to the album's release mentioned the Narcos series in relation to the album. Furthermore, the information I provided serves as actual background to how the album was brought about. For collaboration album examples see Watch the Throne, Distant Relatives, Collision Course (album) I'd imagine it'd be useful for a reader to know considering Fat Joe and Remy Ma's past differences this album was never likely to happen at one point. I do agree with the removal of the promotion section though as an artist talking about their own album there is obviously going to be a bias and does not benefit the reader of the page.

Hey I saw Günther Zaag during March Madness, and I thought it might lack notability, but I'm not as learned in what awards have been decided to make a person notable, could you advise? -- Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 03:18, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
Der Historiker Sönke Neitzel bezeichnet Wittmann als den „angeblich erfolgreichsten Panzerkommandanten des Zweiten Weltkrieges“ und konstatiert einen „Heldenkult um Wittmann“, der in kaum einem populären Buch über die Waffen-SS fehle. Laut Neitzel sind „Erfolgszahlen von hochdekorierten Panzerkommandanten […] mit einer gewissen Vorsicht zu behandeln“, da es sich im „Kampfgetümmel“ kaum zuverlässig ermitteln lasse, wer wie viele Panzer abgeschossen habe.
The historian Sönke Neitzel calls Wittmann "allegedly the most successful tank commander of the Second World War" and states a "heroic cult around Wittmann", which is hardly missing in a popular book on the Waffen-SS. According to Neitzel, "success numbers of highly decorated (means: many badges and medals) tank commanders [...] have to be treated with a certain caution", since in the "battle turmoil" it is hardly reliably to determine who shot as many tanks.

FYI - I saw you gave this user/editor notice as to a cat, but in this case you should know this user/editor was a sock banned quite some time ago. He was pretty wild on making new cats, I recall. Kierzek ( talk) 21:42, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
Hi K.e.coffman, in response to your mail - feel free to ping or contact me in cases of doubt about notability regarding German soldiers. Please be aware, however, that I am not a regular contributor to the English Wikipedia project and do not want to get involved in lengthy arguments about its notability criteria as such. That is something for the local crowd to decide on. I do absolutely share your concern about improper characterization of German WWII soldiers on enWP, although I mostly write biographies about foreign nationals on deWP myself (being a German, as you may have guessed). Cheers, Prüm ( talk) 17:03, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
Thanks for closing a few discussions at CfD. Please note the instructions under Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Administrator_instructions#Process, esp. 6.1: If the decision is Delete, Merge, or Rename: (...) If you are a non-admin, (...) please do not close discussions that require any of the above 3 actions unless you are prepared to implement them manually, or an admin has agreed to help you.
In other words, it is up to the closer to execute the closing decision.

Your recent editing history at Kurt Knispel shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DbivansMCMLXXXVI ( talk • contribs) 03:25, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
I have added references to the article on Kurt Knispel. In the future please simply request references instead of mass culling of entire articles. We cannot provide sources if the section in question is completely removed along with the tags.
Also, its often easier to do a quick google books search and find a reliable source than it is to delete the information. Google books often allows free access to highly regarded sources.

Hi K.e.coffman, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the patroller right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! ~ Rob13 Talk 02:19, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
I was drawn here as you participated in an article for deletion that I also contributed to (pretty hopelessly, looking to stretch policy to keep. As you reasoned, it will probably be deleted). In any case, I just spent half an hour browsing your user page. In the past I had been bothered by how WWII articles seemed to praise the German side, for skill, valor, etc, etc, but I had no idea of the extent. I am utterly impressed, and I thank you for improving Wikipedia. Jd2718 ( talk) 23:35, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
FYI, anyone who is autoconfirmed can overwrite a redirect with one line in its edit history pointing to the article that is being moved. It'll record G6 in the deletion log and the move will be done quite simply. You only need to go to WP:RM/TR if it has multiple revisions or if it is pointing to an article other than the one being moved. TonyBallioni ( talk) 04:44, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
I note in Police Regiment Centre and Police Regiment South you have used both m/d/y and d/m/y. I did not change to one or the other since you wrote the new articles and should decide same. Kierzek ( talk) 16:27, 19 March 2017 (UTC)

Hello, K.e.coffman. Your account has been granted the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, and move subpages when moving the parent page(s).
Please take a moment to review
Wikipedia:Page mover for more information on this user right, especially
the criteria for moving pages without leaving redirect. Please remember to follow
post-move cleanup procedures and make link corrections where necessary, including broken double-redirects when suppressredirect
is used. This can be done using
Special:WhatLinksHere. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to
secure your password. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status
can be revoked.

Having just reviewed a bunch of your recent articles, I noticed that the formatting of your appendices didn't comply with MOS:APPENDIX because you used a semi-colon to create some of the headers. This cannot be read by screen readers for visually impaired readers and you should replace them with equals signs to create the appropriate-level headers.
BTW, what's your opinion of the Hartmann book? At what level is he focused?-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 15:23, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
