Contributions[edit]

Hi "Ben". I don't want to sound harsh, because I don't know your personal situation, but your spelling is bad enough that your contributions have so far had little value. As an example, your contribution to the nuclear weapons article:

and haveing harmefull radiation stay in the radious of the explosinon, this radiation can cous numerous deseaseis that can result in death, this radiation can last fo many years and its efects seen in futer generations.

Marked up for just basic spelling and grammar, it would look like this:

and haveing harmefull radiation ~~stay~~ [which would be?] in the radious of the explosinon, this radiation can ~~cous~~ cause numerous ~~deseaseis~~ diseases that can result in death, this radiation can last for many years and its effects seen in ~~futer~~ future generations.

The above corrections do not take into account the redundancy of saying "this radiation" twice after introducing it as a subject, nor does it take into account whether or not that addition is factually correct ("in the radius of the explosion" is vague; the radiation penetates further than the fireball does, sometimes further than the blast radius itself, depending on the bomb conditions). I am not writing this in order to be chastising or moralizing, but just to point out why your contributions have so far all been reverted, and probably will be in the future if they are like the above. --Fastfission 01:43, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to Category:World War II operations and battles of Europe. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox.
