== Welcome, again! ==

Well, this was nice. {{smiley}} Your IP had jumped once again, so I just saw a fourth IP on [[Gotland]]. All those IPs was really making my head spin, so I'm very grateful that you made an account. And please stay and make more edits! We do need good editors like you. Not many IPs make so good edits right of the bat. Well, you still have a lot to learn, but I've seen worse. Cheers, [[User:W.carter|<em style="font-family:Verdana;color:DarkBlue">w.carter</em>]]<small>[[User talk:W.carter|'''<em style="font-family:Verdana;color:DarkBlue">-Talk</em>''']]</small> 19:07, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the compliment and again for the welcome mat. As for the jumping IPs, my internet connection/ISP is not the most reliable, I'm afraid. A textbook example of how ''not'' to do a privatisation.

{{od|3}}Just curious: Since your IP was designated to Dublin, does your user name mean "A blue blade" in Gaelic?

That's one of the possible meanings; another is 'blue armour' (Ceannlann was also a type of chain mail invented by the Celts). [[User:Ceannlann gorm|Ceannlann gorm]] ([[User talk:Ceannlann gorm#top|talk]]) 20:39, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

== A link ==

Hello! When you make a link like <nowiki>[[repair shop]]</nowiki> most such links are flexible so you might not have to worry about the capital letter at the beginning. Such things are mostly restricted to names and the likes. You can write the link with a lower case and check in the preview if it works before making the <nowiki>[[Repair shop|repair shop]]</nowiki>. But, in this case there is another problem. The [[repair shop]] does not link to a specific page, it links to a page where different kinds of "repair shop" can be found. You should always click on the links you make to see where you eventually end up. Pages like this are called ''disambiguation pages'' and most of the times you will get a Bot message that you have accidentally linked to such a page, asking you to clarify the "final destination". I have done that at [[Gotland#Military]] and you can see how it's done. Cheers, [[User:W.carter|<em style="font-family:Verdana;color:DarkBlue">w.carter</em>]]<small>[[User talk:W.carter|'''<em style="font-family:Verdana;color:DarkBlue">-Talk</em>''']]</small> 11:41, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Thanks. I wasn't sure whether the repair shop in this case was a backshop or a full blown tank repair depot, so I tried to square the circle. [[User:Ceannlann gorm|Ceannlann gorm]] ([[User talk:Ceannlann gorm#top|talk]]) 11:44, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

:I pass the old house for the shop each day on my way to work (I also saw it in action back in the days), not what I would call a full tank repair depot.

<sithmode> Dricku is the national beverage of Gotland. The rest of the world is (thankfully) spared. It symbolizes and embodies the rebellious nature of Gotlanders and the harsh island. The un-official and very secret recipe for dricku is this: Take one (1) fairly large juniper. Hack it into moderately large pieces and place in a jerrycan. Do not remove anything! Dirt cleanses your system and spiders and bugs add flavor and protein. Add water and whatever is left in your pantry. Ferment until strong. The alcohol content is always a mystery, do not measure it. Dricku is the only beverage which can be consumed by people who never drink alcohol (see aforementioned mystery). It is also exempt from all laws and regulations about the selling, drinking and handling beverages. Note: All of the above is only valid on Gotland. An annual Dricku-making World Championship is held on Gotland at some illustrious location with a population larger that 14.</sithmode> [[User:W.carter|<em style="font-family:Verdana;color:DarkBlue">w.carter</em>]]<small>[[User talk:W.carter|'''<em style="font-family:Verdana;color:DarkBlue">-Talk</em>''']]</small> 10:26, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

==Disambiguation link notification for March 19==

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited [[1915 Vanceboro international bridge bombing]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Western Front]]. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small>

== Gotland as a hotspot ==

Hi! As you may have noticed, my ordinary life keeps coming in the way of the WP right now. :( I saw you latest edits on Gotland. So a few pointers: There are currently a lot of rumors, actions, buzz, whatever, about Gotland and the military. The prudent WikiWay is to sit back wait until hearsay and political gambits solidify into facts. The Gotland article is a sort of general description of the island and everything on it. Due to your diligence it is now becoming a bit heavy in the military department. ;) No real harm in that, the facts are undoubtedly interesting and relevant, BUT it would be better to put most of it in the [[Draft:Military in Gotland|Military in Gotland]] article. Therefore it is even more vital to get that article in a sort of ready state and get it into the main. [[Gotland]] is not what you would call a "Current Events" article, whereas the "Military in Gotland", or some section of it is very much so.

So, I'll leave the edits in [[Gotland]] for now, but I would advice you to go with the facts that are now in the Draft and provide them with references and get a sort of "skeleton structure" going in it so that it can be moved to main rather soon. Once it is moved, you can still continue to add to it and improve it. There are already enough facts in it to go for a DYK, they just need to be ref'd. When that article gets going, we can move some of the things that are now in the Gotland article to the right place in your new article, and also trim down the Military section to a proportional size. I thought we were going to have time to do things more leisurely, but the current events about Gotland have speeded things up a bit.

One thing I notice is that you may have misunderstood the thing about the lead. That is supposed to be a very short version of the article for the lazy reader to get all the general facts in a few sentences. An abstract of the article. Right now it is more like an introduction (a very nice one, but still...) to the article. I can help you with that once I've gone through the article, or you can have a go at it yourself.

== A very small note ==

Hello my young WikiWolfcub! Thank you for your addition to my museum draft. It is good that you practice by "chewing on my slippers" so you will not get into trouble with other editors. :) But this raised something you should know. If you are not working on a draft together with another editor, like we did on Military on Gotland, it is considered bad manners to edit a draft unless asked to by the editor(s) initiating it. This is to give the creator of the article a chance to finish the draft in peace and quiet before the article is thrown to the wolves in the main area. Suggestions can be left at the draft's talk page, though. As we have noticed, we had at least one editor chomping at the bit to add to the article (with a very good edit), but they waited until the article was in the main in accordance with good Wiki-etiquette. However, if drafts are left unattended for too long they end up at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Abandoned Drafts]] where anyone can have a go at them. All the best, [[User:W.carter|<em style="font-family:Verdana;color:DarkBlue">w.carter</em>]]<small>[[User talk:W.carter|'''<em style="font-family:Verdana;color:DarkBlue">-Talk</em>''']]</small> 17:20, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

::::{{ec}} Sounds like a good plan. People here ''do'' have some sense of humor, but the jokes have to be very, very subtle and not disturb the day to day business of the WP. My own most viewed joke was actually not made on 1 April and it ''was'' sort of in the main space, but it had a connection to my edits, so I got away with it. :) It was when I translated the [[Stockholm Palace]] from an FA on the SweWiki and I was bored out of my skull with having to come up with yet another edit summery for the translation. So I wrote [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Stockholm_Palace&diff=636650661&oldid=636594679 this] summery + the next. Those edits really spiked the Page views statistics.

About editing here ... I often look at that as a sort of high stakes poker game: You don't "play" the articles or even the rules and recommendations, you play the editor (or community) opposite you. And as the [[The Gambler (song)|old song]] says, the trick to survive and stay in the game here is to "know when to hold 'em ... when to walk away" and just count your <del>money</del> edits when the dyk is done.

:Nice of you to come up with more info to help that article into the main. :) If a user ask at the Teahouse to have an article moved to main, that means they consider the article ready. But since this user did not have the same benefit as you have of having a mentor, they have to ask for it to be reviewed. If the article looks good (and this one certainly did) you can leave a note at the users talk page and do what you can to help the article make it to main, even if it is in the sandbox or a draft. That is considered a good deed. There are some users/wikignomes at the Teahouse who almost specializes in helping articles along this way. ;) I have seen articles go from crap to admissible in hours this way. I just do the most obvious cases. (Lazy me...)

== Bit of clarification  ==

I really like to see how you have settled in here since you made the account. :) Adding to and fixing up stubs and rescuing articles from deletion are very noble tasks. Good job! Also I think I owe you a small clarification about why I dabble in military articles even though I no expert in that area. (Sorry for my previous curt answer.) My knowledge of military things, as well as some lingo, have rubbed of from friends, most of whom ''are'' in the military, Swedish and foreign. I've been to many camps and bases in several countries. I've seen friends off to wars, not all of them came back, and I use the same shooting ranges they do. So, I'm "adapted" to military stuff and can put in my two cents now and then in such articles, but it's grunt-knowledge and not up to par with your expertise. ;) Cheers, [[User:W.carter|<em style="font-family:Verdana;color:DarkBlue">w.carter</em>]]<small>[[User talk:W.carter|'''<em style="font-family:Verdana;color:DarkBlue">-Talk</em>''']]</small> 19:57, 9 April 2015 (UTC)

== Hangouts ==

Thanks for trailing my edits and helping me clean up other articles. :) Still can't believe how you manage to find all those categories! When I don't feel like doing serious research I sometimes hang out at the Teahouse to see if any newbies have some articles in trouble, and I go in and do a bit of wikignome work. It's rather relaxing after major articles and policy battles. Another place to find easy stuff to do is at [[:Category:All dead-end pages]]. Anything you do for those articles is an improvement. On occasion, even finding refs can be really easy, not too taxing and result in an ok article for the WP and some new knowledge for me, like when I fixed [[Francis Wallace (writer)]].

== More things to learn ==

Hi! Thanks for helping me with the cleanup on [[Sarek National Park]]. :) However, there were a couple of things that were not completely correct according to the [[WP:MOS|manual]], although they seem like good ideas.

*The bold for Pårte Scientific Station in the lead should not be there. There is a section of the [[WP:BOLDTITLE]] that mentions why: ''Only the first occurrence of the title and significant alternative titles (which should usually also redirect to the article) are placed in bold:''. I've reworded the small explanation since it is called that in more than just sources.
*There should not be any links to sections of the article in the lead. That is what the table of Contents is for. Otherwise every fact that is mentioned in the lead could be linked and that would make a mess! The lead is only a summary or an abstract of the article.
*You can never refer to sections by their number. Articles are not static but changing all the time, and since the numbers are created automatically, they will change as soon as one section in the article is moved, added, merged or deleted. This will most likely result in the number pointing to the wrong section.

Please, do not be discouraged by this. Keep editing. If I see something that is not right, I will correct it and explain why. :) Later today (or tonight) I have to tackle the last section and see if I can get it right. Since the Samis' rights and the reintroduction of wolves are highly volatile topics in Sweden, this will be ''very'' tricky to get right and neutral. <sigh!> Well, no guts, no glory! See you on the flip side.

Something new: Here is a small tip/treat for you. Since some of your expertise is fixing the cats, let me introduce you to a thing that will make this sooo much easier for you, [[Wikipedia:HotCat|HotCat]]. I use it myself. You simply check a box in your "Preferences" and hey presto you get small "-" and "+" etc. beside the categories at the bottom of the page. This way you don't need to open the editing window for adding/removing/substituting cats and will never have to worry about editing conflicts since everything is done (the subversive way ^^) down in the categories box. Even the editing summery is automatic, like in [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Siri_Derkert&diff=681040867&oldid=681039974 this diff] where I used it. I think you'll like it, if not just uncheck the box again. Everything is described on the linked page above. Happy cat hunting!

Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#National varieties of English|respect national varieties of English]] in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use [[British English]]. For something related to the United States in the same way, use [[American English]]. For something related to India, use [[Indian English]]. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the ''original'' author used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written.

== [[:Category:Japan Self-Defense Forces in fiction]] ==

Hi,

I've noticed you were adding this category to a bunch of articles today.  I think many of those articles aren't actually about the [[Japan Self-Defense Forces]], and that the category isn't appropriate to those articles.  I don't think it is appropriate to place articles in that category when the story is about other organizations that happen to be defending Japan (such as the UN or fictional organizations).  Please only use that category when the characters are supposed to be members of the Japan Self-Defense Forces, and not when they are members of other organizations. [[User:Calathan|Calathan]] ([[User talk:Calathan|talk]]) 20:52, 16 December 2015 (UTC)
:Hi [[User:Calathan|Calathan]]. Thanks, but the category not only covers fictional members of the JSDF, along with fictional JSDF equipment, but also fictional branches of the JSDF as well as fictional incarnations/successor organisations. It's also intended to cover article subjects that include cameos of the real world branches in various works of fiction. [[User:Ceannlann gorm|Ceannlann gorm]] ([[User talk:Ceannlann gorm#top|talk]]) 21:27, 16 December 2015 (UTC)
:{{edit conflict}}I've removed the category again from [[Neon Genesis Evangelion]] and [[Full Metal Panic!]].  Per [[WP:CATDEF]], when categorizing articles, the categories should be defining aspects of the subject, meaning something that reliable sources would commonly and consistently mention about the subject.  Anyone reading the article should be able to tell why the article is in the categories it is in.  For [[:Category:Japan Self-Defense Forces in fiction]] to be appropriate for an article, it is not enough that the JSDF appears in the work.  Instead, the JSDF should be an integral part of the work, such that almost any source writing about the work would mention the JSDF.  The category is appropriate for things like [[Yomigaeru Sora – Rescue Wings]] or [[Gate (novel series)]], where the main characters are members of the JSDF and any reliable source talking about the work would mention the JSDF.  However, for things like [[Neon Genesis Evangelion]] and [[Full Metal Panic!]], where the JSDF happens to appear but aren't a particularly important part of the work, placing them in those categories is inappropriate.  Neither of those articles even mentions the JSDF anywhere, and most sources talking about them wouldn't mention the JSDF.  Please only add the category when the JSDF is a major part of the work that is mentioned in most sources talking about the work. [[User:Calathan|Calathan]] ([[User talk:Calathan|talk]]) 21:32, 16 December 2015 (UTC)

: It shouldn't cover successor or similar organizations as with Mithril in FMP or NERV in Evangelion, but if a show features the JSDF and it has a secret mecha or vampire branch or a base in a fictional town, then that can be considered. Also, a minor character or a cameo appearance of a  JSDF would not meet the CATDEF. A lot of the series that were categorized had concerned other fictional organizations that act kind of like the JSDF but aren't the JSDF. For example: TERRA in [[Rahxephon]], NERV in Evangelion, Pan Pacific Defense Corps in [[Pacific Rim (film)]], A.D. Police in [[Bubblegum Crisis]]. In [[Vividred Operation]], there's a National Defense Force but it is in a futuristic Japan where JSDF no longer exists, and a Vigilance Corps in ''[[Reideen]]'' but in an alternative fictional world. However, the creation of a fictional branch as with Information Self Defense Force (I-SDF) in the video game [[Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory]] is acceptable. In [[Arpeggio of Blue Steel]] the JSDF grows its function to cover more operations.

You added the "abandoned military projects" category to this article, saying "Due to recent developments which are likely to see even the truncated class decommissioned in the near future, have added Category:Abandoned military projects of the United States".

== Category:History of the tank ==

Hello: what criteria are you using as to which tank articles to add this cat? Seems subjective. [[User:Kierzek|Kierzek]] ([[User talk:Kierzek|talk]]) 21:44, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
:Hi [[User:Kierzek|Kierzek]]. I'm trying to add articles that have some direct insight into the development of the tank, or otherwise are related to a significant milestone in or contribution to tank development. I'm trying to get a broad coverage of tank development internationally, hopefully without overloading the category. [[User:Ceannlann gorm|Ceannlann gorm]] ([[User talk:Ceannlann gorm#top|talk]]) 21:51, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
::That was my guess. Although I must say the [[Type 94 Disinfecting Vehicle and Type 94 Gas Scattering Vehicle]] is not sufficient; and it was not used in WWII and was just a variant of the [[Type 94 tankette]]. So, I hope you don't mind if I revert that addition, accordingly. Cheers, [[User:Kierzek|Kierzek]] ([[User talk:Kierzek|talk]]) 21:57, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
:Ok, I thought I would add that as an example of a tank developed for use in chemical/biological warfare[[User:Kierzek|.]] [[User:Ceannlann gorm|Ceannlann gorm]] ([[User talk:Ceannlann gorm#top|talk]]) 21:59, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
::Well, okay then; I can see that to a degree. [[User:Kierzek|Kierzek]] ([[User talk:Kierzek|talk]]) 22:01, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

:::I've undone a number of your category adds as the articles were already in a subcategory of that category. Eg Crusader is under WWII tanks of the UK, which is under Tanks by country which is under History of the tank. See [[WP:Subcategory]]. [[User:GraemeLeggett|GraemeLeggett]] ([[User talk:GraemeLeggett|talk]]) 08:22, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
:::: I see that obsessive and simplistic imposition of SUBCAT as (''yet again'') completely useless. It breaks the entire purpose of that category.  
:::: Of course there are members of this cat where I'd question their inclusion, but that's inevitable and quite subjective. Maybe a list article would work better, given the inevitable misuderstanding of MediaWiki categorisation and the damage that will be caused over and over by SUBCAT. [[User:Andy Dingley|Andy Dingley]] ([[User talk:Andy Dingley|talk]]) 09:29, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
:::::Having spotted some of the edits over the last few days, I had some similar thoughts.  A list article may well be better in providing the opportunity for context to the decision on inclusion, but this is so subjective that I suspect it would be open to a lot of backwards and forwards editing based on individual interpretations (and personal biases, my own included).  I've started a discussion point on the category talk page and that may be a better place to have this discussion.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at [[WP:REFUND/G13|this link]]. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

== [[Mischief Reef]] ==

You added [[Mischief Reef]] to [[:Category:Coastal fortifications]]. I reverted with the edit comment "Mischief Reef is not on the coast of anything". Rather than discuss the matter, you started an edit war by reinstating your edit with the comment "Category does cover naval fortifications in general". I do not wish to participate in an edit war, but I very strongly disagree that [[Mischief Reef]] should be in a category with the name "Coastal fortifications".
*Please read [[WP:BRD]].
*Mischief Reef is an artificial island on top of a reef on top of an atoll which is surrounded by ocean 1,000+ meters deep, and is more than 100km from the coast of the Philippines.
*It is not costal.
*It is not a "fort".
*It is not naval, or at least, it is not just naval.
*It is unclear to me that it is a "fortification". (Maybe it is "fortified", depending on the definition of "fortified".)
*Therefore it is neither coastal fortifications nor naval fortifications
*And I fail to see why you say "Category does cover naval fortifications in general". The category is "Coastal fortifications". If the category "covers naval fortifications in general", then it should be renamed to something like "naval fortifications".
