Regarding USCGC_Northwind_(WAGB-282)'s references

I have removed the list of references at the end since they weren't actually referencing anything in the article. If there is something that can be referenced by those sources, use them following the WP:CITE syntax. I have included the references I removed in the article's talk page for easy retrieval and convenience. ScottSteiner (talk) 11:05, 19 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

To cite things, you should read the article at WP:CITE. It's a great help. It'll show you how to cite http://www.uscg.mil/history/webcutters/Northwind1945.asp you would do something along the lines of

<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.uscg.mil/history/webcutters/Northwind1945.asp|title=U.S. Coast Guard Cutter History|accessdate=2011-03-19}}</ref>

Which would produce: ^[1] after the fact you are citing the source for. You could then place that after relevant information which should be sourced. From looking at the website, you would do that for the builder/cost/yard number/other info provided (but just once, not for each set of data). ScottSteiner (talk) 11:49, 19 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits of USCGC Fir (WLM-212)

Your recent edits of USCGC Fir (WLM-212) are appreciated. Regardless of how much I look at an article, I always miss something and your sharp eyes caught somethings I managed to overlook. A big Coast Guard welcome to Wikipedia from this retired chief petty officer. Cheers and have fun. Your contributions are valued. If you have questions, just ask. Cuprum17 (talk) 03:48, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Chief, If I knew your were stopping by I would have baked you a pie. I happy to find out somebody is still alive. My refences to Fir as WLB were the result of confusion. I knew full well she was WLM. Confusion came from writing on Tupelo and Magnolia. I am very new at this. My only qualifications might be "Master of Assorted Facts" and "Sea Story Teller". I eyeballed your page and see we share many affinities...even I was once a high powered SP5. Thank you for your comments and invitation to ask questions IAW the finest CG traditions....."Hey Boats...how do we do this ? " "Hell...I dunno...let's ask the Chief". From the Ancient, Honourable and Mystical Polar Order of the Charlie Noble we send you greetings. Semper Paratus (CS1) Tjlynnjr (talk) 21:16, 9 April 2011 (UTC).[reply]

I do love a good sea story. And another 'Ancient order of the Spec 5' to boot. What are the odds on that one? No kidding, there are plenty of Coast Guard articles on here that could use some help. Many of the cutter articles are incomplete and need some references. Although I was in the Army in Vietnam, I'm attempting to get down the story of the Coast Guard in Vietnam little by little. As I said before, if you need help, contact me on my talk page and I'll see what I can do to teach you the ropes. Did I understand your rate right? Commissaryman? or did I miss something? Did you have time on an Ice Braker? All my CG time was ATON on river tenders...once you get stuck there it's hard to leave. Cheers... Cuprum17 (talk) 23:04, 9 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

We are a Coast Guard family since 1957, Chief. After WW II and Korean war service (FN to MM1) (USN) Dad was in Base Buffalo NY, CGC Winnebago, Base Sand Island Hono. TH, Magnolia, Base YBI SF CA, CGC Northwind, CGC Fir and CGC Tupelo MM1 to CWO3 (Eng). Yes.....I was a belly robber...otherwise I would not have been initiated into the mysteries of Charlie Noble...do not tell anyone though, since there are more conspiracy theories about it than the Illuminati. The Commissaryman rate went to MS to FS and back to CS ("Culinary Specialist")....very sophisitcated ;) No ice service, but I have eyeballed some breakers, and I know it's nice in the ice. Well, ATON is still hard work, Dad enjoyed it though. Please see my user page, click on the link to K7IWH. If you know any hams, especially Ancient Canoe Clubbers, tell them about my station. My primary army MOS was 94B3L. I will contact you on your talk page when I have a question. BTW Dad was Chief Engineer in Fir from 1969 to 1970. He also swore me into active duty in Seattle WA while Tupelo was in Todd Shipyards in 1971. Wishing you fair winds and following seas, TJ Tjlynnjr (talk) 23:58, 9 April 2011 (UTC).[reply]

Thank you very much. I have watched you plugging away, you improve articles. You are the local expert, but not bossy, you don’t act like you own the subject. You asked for input, I thought I’d give you support, you deserve it. The post is very flattering, but personal stuff is uncomfortable around here, different ways. Please do not be offended, but I’m going to blank the page, let the bots have it. Again, thank you very much, and you are doing a great job. See you around, I’m sure.

Turkish crescent

Thanks for posting your research. I've developed quite an interest in this subject, ever since seeing a chapeau chinois in a Legion band. The Turkish connection is particularly hard to track down, since so few people, relatively speaking, understand Turkish. It looks as though you can be a key to getting some of that stuff. Lou Sander (talk) 17:41, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

We DO have a lot of things in common. I'm W3BOA, but I haven't been on the air since the 1960s. I was a pioneering Navy shipboard ham, operating from USS Rankin (AKA-103) around 1962, when shipboard operation was first authorized. When I left the ship, I spend a day on Vieques Island, off Puerto Rico, and operated some sort of ham station there. Totally by accident I had a QSO from there with famous ham Barry Goldwater. My only real connection with Turkey is a two-day visit to Izmir in 1964 when I was on a Med Cruise. I'm on Skype, also, as lsander153. Maybe we could use it for a semi-eyeball QSO.

This seems to be an absolutely First Class operation. Their stuff is very well written in English, and I imagine in Turkish and German as well. Their people seem to know all there is to know about Turkish music and instruments.

I noticed that you have posted comments to the page User talk:Serten in a language other than English. When on the English-language Wikipedia, please always use English, no matter to whom you address your comments. This is so that comments may be comprehensible to the community at large. If the use of another language is unavoidable, please provide a translation of the comments. For more details, see Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines. Thank you. . Wikicology (talk) 07:41, 31 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Were trying to translate things for the English WP ;) Serten (talk) 12:29, 31 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Serten: @Wikicology: I apologise. I will also apologise to User:Serten at his page in case he was offended. I have been here at enWiki since March 2008; a fair time, but I am not technically skilled (in this HTML ? stuff, or what ever it is I am doing now) or well versed in Wiki protocol etc. I only discovered the "Ping User" feature a few days ago (August 2014).

I went to Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines but could not find any rule forbidding other language use within user talk pages. I did see guidelines for "use English" in article talk/discussion pages. As I understand (?), this does not cover user pages/user talk pages. I went next to section 3 of same page entitled "User talk pages" and found nothing, Next I went to Wikipedia:User pages and found (?) nothing. Please clarify.

I reckoned other language use was OK since I have seen it in other user talk pages. I know it is not used, or at least not used without a translation, in article talk/discussion pages. Please also see here: [1] English is used extensively (albeit with apologies), which baffles me. I do know I can use the lousy translator here, and can seek 3rd Party or Wikipedia Embassy help.

I only met User:Serten recently (August 2014) in enWiki when he posted here. English is my primary language but I also know my ancestral languages.

He is from The Old Country so we have a bond of comradeship and naturally we would enjoy communicating in "any dialect, except High German". This also allows us to practise our lingual skills. I have also seen examples of several other editors communicating in other vernaculars on user talk/discussion pages here in enWiki. I do concede this may violate a Wiki-Policy as well. I know some are sensitive to the language issue, I am not, even if I do not know what is being said. I have even met a few people who refused to speak their native language, even though I spoke it ! Be assured Serten and I were not talking about you, but about a Wiki-translation.

I wish to thank you for being civil. The last time I encountered this situation in enWiki it offended me greatly. Editor "A" told Editor "B" to "speak English" on Editor "B"s user talk page. I was offended even though I do not know editors A & B. I do not share the nationality of editor A nor the race of editor B. I will happily and discreetly send you links to this page via Wiki-email should you wish. I have the dealt with The Ugly American overseas a bit who wondered why the natives spoke no English, it was embarrassing. Since I spoke a bit of the lingo I was not ugly however...but not really good looking either...well... I was buying...OK... I went native...but not unlike el-Lawrence of Arabia !

If you have not already done so; please consider making a donation to the Wikimedia Foundation. [2]

Now it's not a contest in itself, it's designed to motivate people to inspire others to improve content and build something which demonstrates the hard work going into the country which is visible. The focus is more on quality improvements but new articles are welcome too. Eventually a Turkish National Contest could be created to fuel it, like Wikipedia:Awaken the Dragon, in which contestants can choose to keep the Amazon vouchers themselves to buy their own books for more articles or put them into book fund to help editors further improve Turkish-related topics by giving them the books they want. It will begin though as purely an improvement drive. If interested, or you think anybody else might be interested, alert them and sign up on the Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Turkey talk page at the bottom. Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 14:12, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 04:47, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

March Madness 2017

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:

tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:

tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.
