Hi!
Received a note regarding Kestrel Aircraft. Please know I have absolutely no idea what I am doing and wish all the help I can get. First of all we need to change the Title page, and any help I can get would be most helpful. KateKestrel20:26, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

Hover taxiing

G'day from Oz; yesterday I had a look at Taxiing after adding a Pretty Picture (I'm so modest) to the Eurocopter EC120 article of an EC120 hover-taxiing. Leaving aside the overall crappiness of the article, as you can see it only mentions hover taxiing in the context of rotor downwash, but says nothing about what it actually is. I'm sure I could easily write a couple of sentences about it, but I can't find a ref to hang anything from. Do you have something that fits the bill? Cheers YSSYguy (talk) 10:20, 12 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm, I am sure I have something somewhere, let me check! If so I'll add it there! - Ahunt (talk) 11:41, 12 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Good-oh, ta muchly. YSSYguy (talk) 12:15, 12 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Done I added a section on how it is done to give a flavour for the limitations and techniques involved. Hopefully it is not too much WP:NOTMANUAL. I used your great EC120B photo as well! - Ahunt (talk) 16:40, 12 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Taxiing, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ground effect (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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 08:55, 13 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Done - Ahunt (talk) 14:19, 13 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You!

Thank you for helping better my editing capabilities.

I added the link to the Aviation page because glossaries like the one I linked that are that accurate need to be seen by the public view. Maybe there's a better place to reference that glossary for those who don't know much about private Aviation?Theoryofman (talk) 15:07, 14 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note. Basically no, things like that have no place linked on Wikipedia. - Ahunt (talk) 17:52, 14 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Duly noted. Again, thank you for the help!  :) Theoryofman (talk) 20:24, 14 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please see my last entry on Talk:Aurel Vlaicu. Could you be so kind and allow some gallery photos of Aurel Vlaicu article?

Much obliged!

Userbox request

Could you please make a user box saying something along the lines of "This user supports copyleft licensing", and the copyleft symbol? Felixphew (talk) 01:28, 26 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your request! How does this look? Feel free to edit it, or just list desired changes here!

I'm working on getting topics related to Ford Island to GA status. I'm meeting with the Pacific Aviation Museum on Friday to gather material to improve the article about them. I see you've had that article on your watchlist and have reverted them a few times. Would you be interested in partnering up with me on this article?--v/r - TP 04:00, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note. It's all about adding material that is supported by reliable sources! That said, sure I'll be willing to help out improve that article! You post and I'll edit, if you like! - Ahunt (talk) 12:48, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

As I understand you are some kind of a mentor to this user. Please can you talk to Felixphew that barnstars are not to be used this way. You are not suposed to give a barnstar to yourself and you are not suposed to use them this way either. This is not Wikilove but it is mockig. He/she put this on my talk page, but that is not enough, put this weird barnstar here on my userpage. You are not supposed to edit other peoples userpage, and especially not in this way.

Very stubborn such no to Doge in Shiba Inu page. Wow! Felixphew (talk) Ar! Ar! Ar! 01:41, 26 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Also he/she removed one of my comments from a disscussion page. He also edited other peoples edits, here. You are not supposed to edit other peoples edits. And I am further hanged out on his userpage. [1]. I am the certain person, who is hanged out there: I pity you. ... Feel free to use my talk page for the massive flame war that ensues... You are not suppose to make a personal conflict about a discussion. Please talk to him so he removes this from his userpage? Hafspajen (talk) 17:28, 26 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not really mentoring him in any formal sense, but let me have a look at what is going on there and see if I can help at all. - Ahunt (talk) 12:49, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Well I went though the whole history and it looks to me like a bit of an WP:AXE issue combined with perhaps an "English-as-a-second language" problem, too. He seems to have been well warned by other editors so far, but I'll keep an eye on it and see how it all progresses. - Ahunt (talk) 14:57, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
.Thank you, that was very nice of you. Hafspajen (talk) 16:10, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

MATE and Debian

Ahunt should undo the revert or give a better reason. Debian 7 is stable. The summary cites testing (jessie). Thus, it is not Debian 7. 84.127.80.114 (talk) 17:38, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

So what? The nav box addition merely says it is available for Debian, and Mate is available for Debian. It doesn't have to be in Debian stable to be included in the nav box - Ahunt (talk) 21:24, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Paul venter (talk) 18:35, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

LOL - you were the one who reverted rather than discussing as per WP:BRD, but let's move this to the talk page. - Ahunt (talk)
