G'day from Oz. I have just looked at [[1968 Kham Duc C-130 shootdown]]; you have listed two book pages as references but you have not mentioned the books themselves. Could you please add them when you get a chance (see the References section of [[Lockheed L-188 Electra]] as an example). Cheers [[User:YSSYguy|YSSYguy]] ([[User talk:YSSYguy|talk]]) 01:04, 31 January 2014 (UTC) |

DYK
Hi, mind if I nominate Tachikawa air disaster for DYK? Thanks, Matty.007 19:11, 10 September 2013 (UTC)
- And 1951 Atlantic C-124 disappearance? (Note: if I don't get a reply in the negative by 13 September/14 September, I will nominate the first page for DYK, the second on 14/15, as otherwise they will become ineligible. Thanks, Matty.007 16:27, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

Great job on the new articles you created. It's great to see them added to the list. I wanted to give you a heads-up that I undid two of your changes: Delta 191 and Eastern 401. You added two more fatalities to each accident but because they did not occur immediatley after the crash, the NTSB reports for both accidents ruled them as non-fatal deaths. I know this is a bit of an oxymoron, but it keeps the numbers standardized across the board. Thanks-Godot13 (talk) 04:58, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
DYK for Tachikawa air disaster
On 11 October 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Tachikawa air disaster, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the Douglas C-124 Globemaster II involved in the Tachikawa air disaster crashed into a watermelon patch, with all hands lost? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Tachikawa air disaster. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

DYK for 1951 Atlantic C-124 disappearance
On 17 October 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article 1951 Atlantic C-124 disappearance, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that in 1951, a United States Air Force Douglas C-124 Globemaster II vanished, and neither the occupants nor the plane were ever recovered? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/1951 Atlantic C-124 disappearance. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Your recent edits
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 21:42, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
I suppose it makes a bit of a change from drive-by anons making the change without explanation, but please can you explain why you have changed the type of aircraft to a -31 when the sources clearly state it's a -32? Pinkbeast (talk) 22:33, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
Some say it's a -31, others say it's a -32. Although I never cited it, Aviation Safety Network is what I used as an info source when I made that change. See, when I work on articles relating to aviation mishaps, I usually use ASN as my primary source of info—though I vehemently disagree with ASN on the subject American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175 (the airplanes that were hijacked and crashed into the Twin Towers in 9/11) being the two worst "accidents" on U.S. soil and/or involving the Boeing 767 (those distinctions rightfully go to American Airlines Flight 191 and Lauda Air Flight 004, respectively). --STH235SilverLover (talk) 02:33, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
- ... and presumably there's an even chance that it's always Aviation Safety Network or the book it refers to, which explains why every n months someone else comes by to make the same edit. Ha.
- The AAIB report consistently has it as a -32. If http://www.planespotters.net/Production_List/McDonnell-Douglas/DC-9/47649,YU-AJR-Inex-Adria-Airways.php is to be believed (I don't know if that's an RS, but it forms part of a consistent whole), it was built as a -31 in '74 and modified to a -32 in March '76, which is consistent with the AAIB report listing an export license date of MArch 1976.

Hello, I'm Jetstreamer. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Cubana de Aviación Flight 9646, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Jetstreamer Talk 20:58, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content, as you did to 2012 Aéro-Service Ilyushin Il-76T crash, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Jetstreamer Talk 22:48, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
