Why did you delete from the Justin Turner article the fact that after he was diagnosed with Covid, he took a photo next to a cancer survivor as he was unmasked. Those facts are important to the story. No mask. Cancer survivor.-- 2604:2000:E010:1100:38DC:1805:F42E:54B2 ( talk) 08:47, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Matthew G. Axelson requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Matthew Axelson. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

G'day all, the nominations for the 2020 Military history WikiProject newcomer and Historian of the Year are open, all editors are encouraged to nominate candidates for the awards before until 23:59 (GMT) on 15 December 2020, after which voting will occur for 14 days.

Hello. Great job on adding Crenshaw's military commendations to his page: [1]. I've been meaning to do this myself, but I haven't found the time. Normally, we insert military awards/decorations near the bottom of a BLP article (see: William B. Caldwell IV, Michael X. Garrett, Myles Deering, or for more 'politically-oriented' BLPs such as Tom Cotton or H. R. McMaster). It makes the article overall less clunky. For the Crenshaw article, I think we can leave the "Military service" section where it stands, and simply move the awards section to the bottom. Also, would you mind providing me a source where you found that he was awarded a Navy Rifle Marksmanship Medal, Navy Pistol Marksmanship Medal, Navy and Marine Corps Sea Service Deployment Ribbon, and Navy Good Conduct Medal? I can't seem to find such as source. Thank you! Dr.Swag Lord, Ph.d ( talk) 05:12, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello, Altair110. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " Dustin Bates".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 23:27, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Death of Linda Norgrove, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Scottland.

Hi! I noticed you made edits to Randy Shughart and Gary Gordon's pages and I wanted to ask you about how the CIB (and related awards) are awarded. I had thought that for the CIB, CAB, and CMB, one is awarded per eligibility period, with the periods being WWII, Korean War, Vietnam War, any conflict post-Vietnam but before OEF, then OEF/2001 to present. And that if someone saw combat and qualified for the CIB, any subsequent combat they saw during the same period wouldn't qualify them for a second or third award. Like, most recent combat vets from OIF/OEF/OIR would only receive one CIB even if they saw combat in Afghanistan and Iraq (and possibly Syria).
And since the Army basically lumped all conflicts between Vietnam and Afghanistan (Grenada, Panama, Gulf War, Somalia, Kosovo) into one period, someone during that era would only have 1 award. I had thought about whether the only photos of them in uniform show the single award CIB was because their second one was posthumous but I noticed that for veterans of the Battle of Mogadishu who saw combat previously during the Gulf War or Panama or Grenada, then later saw combat in Iraq or Afghanistan (while still eligible), they only had two awards, rather than 3. Like, the reason three CIB awards is so rare is because no one has been alive long enough and still been Colonel or below to have seen combat in Vietnam, a conflict in the 80s or 90s, and in Afghanistan or Iraq.
Am I missing something? I was never enlisted so I don't know first hand. Jasonkwe ( talk) ( contribs) 17:51, 28 September 2022 (UTC)

Just a quick correction to the prior message about the 2022 MILHIST coordinator election! I ( Hog Farm) didn't proofread the message well enough and left out a link to the election page itself in this message. The voting will occur here; sorry about the need for a second message and the inadvertent omission from the prior one. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 17:40, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi! I noticed you made edits to Randy Shughart and Gary Gordon's pages and I wanted to ask you about how the CIB (and related awards) are awarded. I had thought that for the CIB, CAB, and CMB, one is awarded per eligibility period, with the periods being WWII, Korean War, Vietnam War, any conflict post-Vietnam but before OEF, then OEF/2001 to present. And that if someone saw combat and qualified for the CIB, any subsequent combat they saw during the same period wouldn't qualify them for a second or third award. Like, most recent combat vets from OIF/OEF/OIR would only receive one CIB even if they saw combat in Afghanistan and Iraq (and possibly Syria).
And since the Army basically lumped all conflicts between Vietnam and Afghanistan (Grenada, Panama, Gulf War, Somalia, Kosovo) into one period, someone during that era would only have 1 award. I had thought about whether the only photos of them in uniform show the single award CIB was because their second one was posthumous but I noticed that for veterans of the Battle of Mogadishu who saw combat previously during the Gulf War or Panama or Grenada, then later saw combat in Iraq or Afghanistan (while still eligible), they only had two awards, rather than 3. Like, the reason three CIB awards is so rare is because no one has been alive long enough and still been Colonel or below to have seen combat in Vietnam, a conflict in the 80s or 90s, and in Afghanistan or Iraq.
Am I missing something? I was never enlisted so I don't know first hand. Jasonkwe ( talk) ( contribs) 17:51, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
