Your reason for reverting my edit, "(no reason to remove the definite article, and HFDF is a proper noun)", goes against the consistency of the article for "High-frequency direction finding" and the Wikipedia Manual of Style, which dictates:
"Do not use A, An, or The as the first word (Economy of the Second Empire, not The economy of the Second Empire), unless it is an inseparable part of a name (The Hague) or it is part of the title of a work (A Clockwork Orange, The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien)."

Nate, I've recently decided to cut back on specific dates at TFA except in cases where the reader is supposed to infer some meaning from the date. So, for tomorrow's TFA, I'm going with "she was laid down and launched in 1905 and completed the next year". Is that a problem? - Dank ( push to talk) 12:34, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

Since I have considerable respect for your contributions in general, I am not going to report you for edit warring even though you've possibly violated 3RR on this article. I'm also not going to give you one of those warning-template things since that can be taken as an insult by an experience editor such as yourself.

Hi, it is rather irritating that you delete the hull numbers on articles of USN ships that have names that have been used only once. The hull number is an integral part of a ship's name. And, if you go on and delete it from any smaller ship (destroyers, etc.), I think this is not useful at all, since the hull number gives everyone an explanation on what type of ship it is. Could you explain your reasoning, please. Cheers Cobatfor ( talk) 22:35, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi, Parsecboy, just letting you know that there is a woman's liberationist using the handle User:Pam-javelin, who is altering any article on warships to gender neutral.

Depending on if I need to finish the reviews for this round of the GA Cup, I may hold off on reviewing them until the end of the month. Also can you take a look at HMS Zealous (1919)? She's the only cancelled V and W-class destroyer that's got an article and I'm not even sure if she was laid down or not. I'm inclined to nuke the article from orbit, but I'll leave that for you to decide.-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 15:46, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

I'm bring this up to speed and am hoping that HRS has some details about how much of the Barbara AA refit had been completed when she came out of refit in November '44. While it's entirely possible that I've missed things in Whitley, I've only found her end-of-war outfit, which is cool, but I'm hoping for more. Koop & Schmolke say that she received her 37mm guns on 20 December and then received additional guns in February '45, which raises the question of what she did get during the refit. Seems like just 20mm guns, but whether they were twins, singles or Flakvierling(s)? Anything in HRS on the matter?-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 19:42, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Italian ironclad Palestro, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ragusa. 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.

I understand that you have done work on this page. My edits were well thought out in an attempt to make the page better. I appreciate your concern for the article but I do not fell that all of my edits were in error. I went back and editted out some of the things I added to the info box, although I feel that they should be there. The reason I changed it to 6 boilers is because of the 4 pages I found two of them had the number of boilers listed and they both said 6. I have changed it back to 8. I also feel that the info box should have as much info as possible because some people might not take the time to read through an article to find certain information. Please feel free to discuss with me if there are changes you still don't agree with, I'm not doing this to give disinformation. Pennsy22 ( talk) 04:25, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
To your previous discussion about Wichita, I just wanted your opinion on the use of the ship template. I go around swapping out the piped links to a) prevent people from inserting seven hundred ident numbers into the articles, b) if the format ever changes about how ship links should be presented, I thought it would be easier to just change a template than go through every piped wikilink in every article.
That being said, if it's preferable that it shouldn't be done, I'll stop. However, if it's ok, I'll keep continuing. Llammakey ( talk) 11:30, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

Please check diff because there is a problem at Re Umberto-class ironclad#General characteristics and machinery (see "convert: unknown unit"). The implication of the edit seems to be that there was some confusion about whether values were metric tons (MT) or long tons (LT). The problem is that "{{convert|13673|MT|sp=us}}" was changed to "{{convert|13058|13673|MT|LT|sp=us}}". I would fix it by removing "|13673" but I can't work out where 13058 came from, so it would be better for you to look at it, thanks. Johnuniq ( talk) 11:06, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

I'd be obliged if you could see if my changes to your comments on Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Peresvet-class battleship/archive1 are satisfactory.-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 17:52, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
This revert is not supported by WP:OVERLINK. I went to that page to see that ship, only to find the battle it was in was not linked. I, and I'm sure others as well, don't want to hunt around to see if there is a link, somewhere. An additional link in a different section is permissible, if it is helpful, which is the case here. You're am admin... you should know this. Just as you know you shouldn't be gearing up for an edit war.
There are more important things to attend to anyway. If you want to be helpful, have look at the contribs for this editor. All made to ship articles, and almost all disruptive. I've gone back from present day to mid-November and have had to revert or manually fix dozens of edits. I have found where dozens more have already been reverted by other editors who regularly maintain ship-related articles. Feel free to pitch in and help clean up this guy's mess. - theWOLFchild 12:06, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
Generally, a link should appear only once in an article(emphasis is mine). "Generally" certainly doesn't come across as rock-solid support for your case.
Your change does not improve the article per established policy and practice., no... just per you. It's a ship class article. If readers go to it to read about a particular ship, like I did, they won't find a link to the most important part of that ship's history, and they shouldn't have to hunt for it. This is why we have links. There is absolutely no harm what-so-ever to adding that link. The policy is expressly written to allow for additional links when the situation calls for it, such as this one.
you're supposed to know better than to start an edit war.- and yet you have more reverts here than I. Look to your own actions before criticizing. You're the admin, and as such you're held to a higher standard. Right now you are not meeting that standard.
I'm sticking to my guns on this because I'm right and you're wrong.- wow. Even for you that is shockingly arrogant and uncollegial. There is no absolute "right" or "wrong" here... just what is best for the article. This is about the article, not you.
I wouldn't exactly call Dallas's edits disruptive...- ffs, you'll argue anything, won't you? I didn't say they were deliberate or vandalism, this is a competency issue and they are disruptive due to the sheer number that have had to be reverted. I only mention them here because I'm at loss to figure why you put so much effort fighting such a minor point when there is clearly more important issues needing attending to. I've now gone thru a majority of his total contribs and have yet to find a single revert by you. But, nevermind... just keep following me around and make sure every article I touch is the way you like it. - theWOLFchild 06:38, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
I'll kindly ask you to end this discussion.- and that's exactly what I'll do. This "discussion" (as you put it) is pointless. You preach WP:NPA, when clearly you need to be reading up on WP:OWN and about a half-dozen other policies. You clearly must have things your way, and your way only, and I have no further interest in suffering you absurd intransigence. - theWOLFchild 20:00, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

Your reason for reverting my edit, "(no reason to remove the definite article, and HFDF is a proper noun)", goes against the consistency of the article for "High-frequency direction finding" and the Wikipedia Manual of Style, which dictates:
"Do not use A, An, or The as the first word (Economy of the Second Empire, not The economy of the Second Empire), unless it is an inseparable part of a name (The Hague) or it is part of the title of a work (A Clockwork Orange, The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien)."

Nate, I've recently decided to cut back on specific dates at TFA except in cases where the reader is supposed to infer some meaning from the date. So, for tomorrow's TFA, I'm going with "she was laid down and launched in 1905 and completed the next year". Is that a problem? - Dank ( push to talk) 12:34, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

Since I have considerable respect for your contributions in general, I am not going to report you for edit warring even though you've possibly violated 3RR on this article.

Hi, it is rather irritating that you delete the hull numbers on articles of USN ships that have names that have been used only once. The hull number is an integral part of a ship's name. And, if you go on and delete it from any smaller ship (destroyers, etc.), I think this is not useful at all, since the hull number gives everyone an explanation on what type of ship it is. Could you explain your reasoning, please. Cheers Cobatfor ( talk) 22:35, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi, Parsecboy, just letting you know that there is a woman's liberationist using the handle User:Pam-javelin, who is altering any article on warships to gender neutral.

Depending on if I need to finish the reviews for this round of the GA Cup, I may hold off on reviewing them until the end of the month. Also can you take a look at HMS Zealous (1919)? She's the only cancelled V and W-class destroyer that's got an article and I'm not even sure if she was laid down or not. I'm inclined to nuke the article from orbit, but I'll leave that for you to decide.-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 15:46, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

I'm bring this up to speed and am hoping that HRS has some details about how much of the Barbara AA refit had been completed when she came out of refit in November '44. While it's entirely possible that I've missed things in Whitley, I've only found her end-of-war outfit, which is cool, but I'm hoping for more. Koop & Schmolke say that she received her 37mm guns on 20 December and then received additional guns in February '45, which raises the question of what she did get during the refit. Seems like just 20mm guns, but whether they were twins, singles or Flakvierling(s)? Anything in HRS on the matter?-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 19:42, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Italian ironclad Palestro, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ragusa. 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.

I understand that you have done work on this page. My edits were well thought out in an attempt to make the page better. I appreciate your concern for the article but I do not fell that all of my edits were in error. I went back and editted out some of the things I added to the info box, although I feel that they should be there. The reason I changed it to 6 boilers is because of the 4 pages I found two of them had the number of boilers listed and they both said 6. I have changed it back to 8. I also feel that the info box should have as much info as possible because some people might not take the time to read through an article to find certain information. Please feel free to discuss with me if there are changes you still don't agree with, I'm not doing this to give disinformation. Pennsy22 ( talk) 04:25, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
To your previous discussion about Wichita, I just wanted your opinion on the use of the ship template. I go around swapping out the piped links to a) prevent people from inserting seven hundred ident numbers into the articles, b) if the format ever changes about how ship links should be presented, I thought it would be easier to just change a template than go through every piped wikilink in every article.
That being said, if it's preferable that it shouldn't be done, I'll stop. However, if it's ok, I'll keep continuing. Llammakey ( talk) 11:30, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

Please check diff because there is a problem at Re Umberto-class ironclad#General characteristics and machinery (see "convert: unknown unit"). The implication of the edit seems to be that there was some confusion about whether values were metric tons (MT) or long tons (LT). The problem is that "{{convert|13673|MT|sp=us}}" was changed to "{{convert|13058|13673|MT|LT|sp=us}}". I would fix it by removing "|13673" but I can't work out where 13058 came from, so it would be better for you to look at it, thanks. Johnuniq ( talk) 11:06, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

I'd be obliged if you could see if my changes to your comments on Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Peresvet-class battleship/archive1 are satisfactory.-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 17:52, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
This revert is not supported by WP:OVERLINK. I went to that page to see that ship, only to find the battle it was in was not linked. I, and I'm sure others as well, don't want to hunt around to see if there is a link, somewhere. An additional link in a different section is permissible, if it is helpful, which is the case here. You're am admin... you should know this. Just as you know you shouldn't be gearing up for an edit war.
There are more important things to attend to anyway. If you want to be helpful, have look at the contribs for this editor. All made to ship articles, and almost all disruptive. I've gone back from present day to mid-November and have had to revert or manually fix dozens of edits. I have found where dozens more have already been reverted by other editors who regularly maintain ship-related articles. Feel free to pitch in and help clean up this guy's mess. - theWOLFchild 12:06, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
Generally, a link should appear only once in an article(emphasis is mine). "Generally" certainly doesn't come across as rock-solid support for your case.
Your change does not improve the article per established policy and practice., no... just per you. It's a ship class article. If readers go to it to read about a particular ship, like I did, they won't find a link to the most important part of that ship's history, and they shouldn't have to hunt for it. This is why we have links. There is absolutely no harm what-so-ever to adding that link. The policy is expressly written to allow for additional links when the situation calls for it, such as this one.
you're supposed to know better than to start an edit war.- and yet you have more reverts here than I. Look to your own actions before criticizing. You're the admin, and as such you're held to a higher standard. Right now you are not meeting that standard.
I'm sticking to my guns on this because I'm right and you're wrong.- wow. Even for you that is shockingly arrogant and uncollegial. There is no absolute "right" or "wrong" here... just what is best for the article. This is about the article, not you.
I wouldn't exactly call Dallas's edits disruptive...- ffs, you'll argue anything, won't you? I didn't say they were deliberate or vandalism, this is a competency issue and they are disruptive due to the sheer number that have had to be reverted. I only mention them here because I'm at loss to figure why you put so much effort fighting such a minor point when there is clearly more important issues needing attending to. I've now gone thru a majority of his total contribs and have yet to find a single revert by you. But, nevermind... just keep following me around and make sure every article I touch is the way you like it. - theWOLFchild 06:38, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
I'll kindly ask you to end this discussion.- and that's exactly what I'll do. This "discussion" (as you put it) is pointless. You preach WP:NPA, when clearly you need to be reading up on WP:OWN and about a half-dozen other policies. You clearly must have things your way, and your way only, and I have no further interest in suffering you absurd intransigence. - theWOLFchild 20:00, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
