21:0721:07, 6 November 2012 diff hist −5 Cogito, ergo sum →Criticisms: The prefixes "pre" and "non" are never hyphenated onto common nouns and adjectives. They attach directly. On the other hand, non-Catholic is O.K. because of the proper noun.

11:5711:57, 2 November 2012 diff hist −1 J. R. Richard →After baseball: "preseason" is not hyphenated, nor is any other common noun with the prefix "pre" hyphenated. See predawn, prehistoric, premature, prenatal, pretense, etc.
11:5211:52, 2 November 2012 diff hist −13 J. R. Richard →After baseball: Money in the United States is understood to be in American dollars ($) and no more needs to be said. To write more is insulting to the intelligence of the reader.

21:3721:37, 30 October 2012 diff hist −48 Marin County, California →Adjacent counties
21:3621:36, 30 October 2012 diff hist −33 Marin County, California The fact that California is part of the United States is common knowledge, and it does not need to be stated. Saying so is insulting to the reader.

23:3323:33, 24 October 2012 diff hist −24 Brooklyn →Education
23:3223:32, 24 October 2012 diff hist +42 Brooklyn →Education: You cannot teach engineering on the high school level, and to say so is just misleading to the reader.
23:2623:26, 24 October 2012 diff hist +78 Brooklyn →Transportation: The names of all ships, aircraft, and spacecraft are italicized, such as the ''Spirit of St. Louis'' and the ''Queen Elizabeth 2''.

01:0101:01, 23 October 2012 diff hist +15 Cleveland-class cruiser →Ships in class: "Canceled" - spelled with just one "l" in American English, and these were American ships.
00:4200:42, 23 October 2012 diff hist +77 Cleveland-class cruiser →Ships in class: Note: the USS ATLANTA was christened by Margaret Mitchell, the author of "Gone With the Wind".

16:4216:42, 19 October 2012 diff hist +465 Boeing AH-64 Apache No edit summary
16:3116:31, 19 October 2012 diff hist +501 Boeing AH-64 Apache Use these U.S. Army, U.S. Air Force, and U.S. Marine Corps because they work fine in the Wikipedia!
15:4815:48, 19 October 2012 diff hist +49 Boeing AH-64 Apache multistage (one word). Dollars are understood to be American dollars unless stated otherwise.
15:1215:12, 19 October 2012 diff hist +68 Boeing AH-64 Apache →Egypt: "largescale" is not a word in English. Use "large scale". However, "widescale" is a commonly-used word.
14:5914:59, 19 October 2012 diff hist +136 Boeing AH-64 Apache →Saudi Arabia: In many places, this article was unnecessarily wordy, and excess words could be simply deleted, as I did.
14:4414:44, 19 October 2012 diff hist +45 Boeing AH-64 Apache →Saudi Arabia: Saudi Arabia, and any other county, is an "it" and not a "they".
