  • Regarding the recent revert you made to Cassandra Harris: You may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit was inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Also, Help:Reverting can show you how to undo several edits in a single step. --JBC3 (talk) 19:57, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for July 2[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Modern equipment of the French Army, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page ARV (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Flags in infoboxes[edit]

Please stop adding flags to infoboxes. Per WP:INFOBOXFLAG such flags are an unnecessary distraction and should not be used. So there is a reason why the multiple articles you're adding flags to don't have them... Thomas.W talk to me 10:43, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Serbian Army Equipment[edit]

Please stop edit-warring. Every time you revert the edit, you also reintroduce dozens of formatting errors that were fixed, as well as misleading pictures. You don't own this. If you are hellbent on putting those 5-6 useless links next to the equipment in question, add them in manually without disturbing the rest of the article. Don't just press "undo".

Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.231.35.99 (talk) 01:04, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • You're telling me that pictures of finnish T-72 and a BTR from a museum are less accurate than actual Serbian T-72's and BTR's? Not only that but you are also saying that links to the military site of Serbia itself are crap? It is you who should stop edit-warring and stop putting unsourced crap back on the page.
    • Yes, that is exactly what I am telling you, because those T-72 and BTR pictures that were put up are, except for being in Serbian ownership, not actually in service that way. The T-72 modernization is a one-off demonstration vehicle, as is the modernized BTR-50 with the turret. The Serbian army doesn't use them in that configuration, hence they are not representative. The Finnish T-72 is the exact same as the ones in actual Serbian service, except for the paint job. The same goes for the BTR-50 picture. It's as wrong as inserting a M-84AB1/M-84AS picture to represent the M-84/A of the Serbian Army. It creates a false suggestion and is not representative, and hence has no place in an encyclopedia.

I am saying the links to the Serbian military page are irrelevant, as they create a false impression that the number is confirmed in that reference, which it isn't. A lot of numbers were changed, insertations removed etc., and nobody thought that the edits might be wrong because everyone assumed that the link at the end of the line confirms them, no one double checked it. The Serbian Army page, apart from being outdated, contains no original information to the subject at hand. It's just a general page with a few characteristics of the vehicle, nothing else. Everything on this wikipedia table is actually in service in that way and number as it is currently stated. The references existed, but most of the wild edits which erased and added formatting at will, also erased most of the sourcing. A lot of things don't have a proper reference, because there is no website that lists all vehicles and trucks of the Serbian Army by number. That doesn't make them less in service. And fyi, it wasn't me who added all the trucks, but they aren't wrong so they don't have to be removed. 98% of all sentences and numbers on wikipedia have no source for them, so unless something is wrong despite better knowledge and understood to be true, there is no need to erase it.
