De-PROD notice: Aluminum internal combustion engine
[edit]Hello, I want to let you know that I have removed the PROD tag you placed on Aluminum internal combustion engine because per WP:PROD: PROD is one-shot only: It must not be used for pages PRODed before or previously discussed at AfD or FfD
, and proposed deletion cannot be used with redirects.
Consider starting another discussion at Articles for deletion or see if one of the speedy deletion criteria applies. Jalen Folf (talk) 03:55, 17 November 2019 (UTC)

[edit]X-15 Flight 3-65-97
[edit]Could you please look over my recent minor edit to X-15 Flight 3-65-97? I’m not sure it’s worded correctly. Feel free to revert it, or let me know what you think and I’ll change it. Thanks! BTW, found you on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Engineering page. The unrelated kinsman (talk) 00:11, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
- I would personally remove "unstable" as the sentence provides context for that already but its good overall. - AH (talk) 22:06, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
- Will do, thanks. The unrelated kinsman (talk) 18:09, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

Anti-frogman techniques cleanup
[edit]That article was pretty bad. Thanks for working on it. But you removed a lot of cited content (even adjacent to content that has many-years-old "uncited" tags). That doesn't seem on its face like "cleanup". Could you please explain more clearly your basis for specific removals, and keeping other related uncited content? DMacks (talk) 17:55, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
- I removed a lot content that was cited, that is true. But many of the citations did not support the actual claims in the article and were simply a reference to the existence of a certain organization or fact. The sentences would speculate and word weasel on a subject. For example:
This sentence contains a citation and even a page number for the fact that a 100-500 hz sound could harm a person, but it does not provide for any reason to include in in the article nor any actual applications, or secondary sources of possible applications of the wave length. - AH (talk) 15:05, 9 April 2020 (UTC)100 to 500 Hz Research showed that loud sound at 100 to 500 Hz caused vibration, and at high powers cavitation and damage.:32–35[clarification needed]
- Sounds good, thanks for the explanation (and especially for the legwork in ref-checking!). DMacks (talk) 04:25, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

- My bad, I was just trying to move over the templates. - AH (talk) 21:25, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
- OK, good. Thankyou for adding the generals' names. Now, the Medical Corps (Egypt). They have about 20 fixed, base, hospitals across Egypt. If you can find, with references, the list of all those twenty hospitals, we could set up a separate article for the Medical Corps. Can you do that? Would be great to have any more references on the field army medical units too.. Buckshot06 (talk) 00:03, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!

For Medical Corps (Egypt) - this is great!! Great work!! I actually moved it to Armed Forces Medical Service Department because you said the MSD was more clearly responsible Buckshot06 (talk) 02:46, 21 April 2020 (UTC) |
This is absolutely great!! Great work!! Would you mind considering doing something else? We have a few divisions without references for their location - eg 7th and 16th Mechanised Divisions in Second Army (Egypt). Would you be able to find a reference for where those divisional bases are? Cheers Buckshot06 (talk) 02:48, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
- I found https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/egypt/army-orbat.htm which seems to be a circa 1990s order of battle for the egyptian army. It is clearly outdated/inaccurate in some aspects but provides a level of detail for other units that we don't have. Example of inaccuracy includes: I have seen multiple sources say a 1st field army does not exist and multiple others omit any mention adding to the claim but it claims one does. - AH (talk) 06:18, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
- Most of what they have is a copy of a very inaccurate Wikipedia page which used to be on here. The First Army (United Arab Republic) is an example. That gs.org page should be removed - certainly, do not use it. No, what I was asking you to do is to look in the Arab internet for recent, reliable,Buckshot06 (talk) 06:36, 21 April 2020 (UTC) references to the divisional locations. Do not use or go anywhere near globalsecurity.org for that data. Thanks !!
Egyptian Artillery Corps
[edit]Please give me the space to communicate with Sepavo and to make sure he fills in the references properly!! There are about 4 people looking at this very obscure page right now - let's bend the rules for a while so we can persuade him to insert the references - unless you wish to hunt them down!! Buckshot06 (talk) 07:45, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- Aight - AH (talk) 07:49, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- Thankyou. But he appears now to have inserted the references; would you please go back through the Arabic links and check them? Kind regards Buckshot06 (talk) 07:53, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- Also, for the Medical Corps, I cannot find any sources for hospital ships. I am going to delete the 3 hospital ships and 4 hospital barges unless you can find some WP:RELIABLE sources about them. Can you find any sources about them? Buckshot06 (talk) 07:53, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- Thankyou. But he appears now to have inserted the references; would you please go back through the Arabic links and check them? Kind regards Buckshot06 (talk) 07:53, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
