Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Bug Star, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Kurland ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:SSCHRFHR.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 21:09, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Political career of Albert Speer is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Political career of Albert Speer until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Sandstein 21:07, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for answering my query on this; are those documents you mentioned publicly available? The article is crying out for a source.
Also, do you know if the OF-n designations stand for anything? Does it represent the degree of responsibility (size of unit commanded, for example)? An explanation of that would be useful, too.
The reason for the mismatch in ranks, I’ve found (and which isn’t made clear at all in the article) is that the NK Army follows the Soviet ranking system, while the SK Army follows the US one. So (it would seem) Brigades, Divisions and Corps are commanded by Major-General, Lt. General and Colonel-General respectively in the NK Army, but by Brigade Gen, Maj Gen and Lt Gen in the SK one. Which makes the Generals (Daejang) equivalent to each other, as far as I can see; and the SK Wonsu equal to the NK ones.
But I'm wondering whether the page needs a complete overhaul; what do you reckon?

If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.
Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

OberRanks, reflect back to 2009 when you created Richard Radecki. (Ahh, those were the days!) For some reason I came across the article myself and did a bit of cleanup. Well, I returned today and removed the two non-reference references. Only the external IMDb link remains. Next I did a Google news and came up with two items. The stories are about diving, and they seem to have Radecki commenting about diving safety. (I'm too cheap to pay to view the entire stories.) A search on the American Film Institute database came up with nothing. So I've tagged the article with no refs & BLP notability. With all this in mind, I'm thinking about an AfD. Thought I'd give you a heads-up. – S. Rich ( talk) 00:12, 18 September 2013 (UTC) PS: I'm not entirely cheap -- I do subscribe to HighBeam Research. Nothing came up. 00:29, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
I switched out the occupation link on the Independence Hall page with the Wikipedia article covering the capture and winter occupation of Philadelphia by Crown Forces. That article looks like it could use some more interesting material in that section, so I'm planning to add a bit, including on what was done with Independence Hall. I just don't see invasion of the United States fitting in the context - it is certainly far from a sovereign nation invading another sovereign nation, when the army was here in their colonies before independence was declared. -- JC1008 ( talk) 13:41, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi, OberRanks. I hope you've been doing well. I've noticed that we don't have anything on Wikipedia for a List of abbreviations of United States military ranks or something like that.

Hi!
You uploaded File:USnuclearstrike.jpg in 2010. I see that the source is the Federal Emergency Management Agency, but that says little about the context where it was found. I wanted to verify what the colors meant, but I haven't been able to find the image together with that information. Where did you get the image, more precisely? Sjö ( talk) 22:29, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

I see from Talk:General of the Armies#Verifiable six-star insignia? that you have seen some plans for a proposed six-star rank insignia. Can you remember if the plans show several options, as shown at: http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/184041-us-navy-style-6-star-admiral-shoulder-board-prototype/, or is the six stars of equal size five in a circle and one in the middle the only image in the archive?

Hi OberRanks. I just noticed your addition to the Amon Göth article. I was wondering if you have a minute if you could add some page numbers and ISBNs to your citations, for added verifiability? Thanks, -- Diannaa ( talk) 16:52, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

OberRanks, reflect back to 2009 when you created Richard Radecki. (Ahh, those were the days!) For some reason I came across the article myself and did a bit of cleanup. Well, I returned today and removed the two non-reference references. Only the external IMDb link remains. Next I did a Google news and came up with two items. The stories are about diving, and they seem to have Radecki commenting about diving safety. (I'm too cheap to pay to view the entire stories.) A search on the American Film Institute database came up with nothing. So I've tagged the article with no refs & BLP notability. With all this in mind, I'm thinking about an AfD. Thought I'd give you a heads-up. – S. Rich ( talk) 00:12, 18 September 2013 (UTC) PS: I'm not entirely cheap -- I do subscribe to HighBeam Research. Nothing came up. 00:29, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
I switched out the occupation link on the Independence Hall page with the Wikipedia article covering the capture and winter occupation of Philadelphia by Crown Forces. That article looks like it could use some more interesting material in that section, so I'm planning to add a bit, including on what was done with Independence Hall. I just don't see invasion of the United States fitting in the context - it is certainly far from a sovereign nation invading another sovereign nation, when the army was here in their colonies before independence was declared. -- JC1008 ( talk) 13:41, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
When you get a chance, please double-check this for accurate placement of "combat" and "non-combat ranks". Cheers, Kierzek ( talk) 21:27, 3 December 2013 (UTC)
Hope you have a good relaxing holiday...Cheers, Kierzek ( talk) 04:43, 25 December 2013 (UTC)
Hi, OberRanks. I hope you've been doing well. I've noticed that we don't have anything on Wikipedia for a List of abbreviations of United States military ranks or something like that. I know that this is your field of expertise and I hope that you will consider creating it. Hoops gza ( talk) 02:46, 16 April 2014 (UTC)
Hi!
You uploaded File:USnuclearstrike.jpg in 2010. I see that the source is the Federal Emergency Management Agency, but that says little about the context where it was found. I wanted to verify what the colors meant, but I haven't been able to find the image together with that information. Where did you get the image, more precisely? Sjö ( talk) 22:29, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages.

I see from Talk:General of the Armies#Verifiable six-star insignia? that you have seen some plans for a proposed six-star rank insignia. Can you remember if the plans show several options, as shown at: http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/184041-us-navy-style-6-star-admiral-shoulder-board-prototype/, or is the six stars of equal size five in a circle and one in the middle the only image in the archive?

Hello, OberRanks. You may wish to translate the German de:Ernst-Heinrich Schmauser to help you with this article. Also, you forgot to add persondata and defaultsort. - Hoops gza ( talk) 04:28, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
Greetings, again. Might you know what SS rank Albert Speer obtained? It is not mentioned in his article. - Hoops gza ( talk) 23:55, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
Check out this new page. I am not sure we really need it given all the similar pages as shown listed on the article page: Nazi party paramilitary ranks and on the page Comparative officer ranks of World War II. Kierzek ( talk) 16:14, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
