Hi, next time give Template:source assess table a try. It's clear, objective and to the point, and avoids the trouble of having to create walls of text in the nomination or throughout the page. It also makes it harder for someone funny to just come in and make a poor but superficially plausible argument without looking the sources.

The wrong internal link for Quang Duc was added on December 12, 2017 https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Ban_Me_Thuot&diff=815007110&oldid=815006030 .
I'm afraid that if we don't have a correct classification or a correct link after Quang Duc, someone will add a wrong link again soon. It is very easy to add a new wiki link but very difficult to recognize in case it is wrong, 4 years past since the wrong link was there proved that.

Hello. I am here to apologise for my on-wiki behaviour on your past ANI post in regard to Jamesallain85 (courtesy ping). While I still do not necessarily "side with you" per se (notwithstanding WP:NOTBATTLEGROUND) , I should have been more calm in my approach. I would also like to apologise for my proposed Arbitration case against you (insofar the fact that it is not posted), and thank you for respecting me when I asked you to stop a discussion thread so as to prevent it from going exceedingly off-topic.

The Kelley reference used on several Vietnam related articles which I have edited uses a page numbering system where there are several sections in the book and each section starts numbering pages with page one. The citation style I used started with the section number and then the page number. Example: 2—103 means section 2, page 103. It is possible to have the same page number in several sections so that is the reason I chose that system that you have changed. So you know what I have done and why.

You can check the book History of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, The Joint Chiefs of Staff and The War in Vietnam 1960–1968, part 3[11]. In p.145, it says: "The Administration promptly accepted General Westmoreland’s recommendations, with the stipulation that bombing in North Vietnam would be restricted to the region south of Vinh. President Thieu also gave his concurrence. On 26 January, the Joint Chiefs of Staff notified CINCPAC and CINCSAC of these exceptions to the 36-hour truce, which would begin at 1800H on 29 January in II, III, and IV Corps. The ceasefire began on schedule, but was short-lived. Soon after midnight on the 29th, enemy forces in southern I Corps and parts of II Corps, evidently acting prematurely due to a mix-up in orders, attacked key towns and installations. This action resolved the allies’ questions about the timing of the general offensive. At 10.00 hours on the 30th, Saigon time, President Thieu formally cancelled the truce throughout South Vietnam, and both the US and ARVN commands placed all their forces on full alert. The alert came too late, however, to recall thousands of South Vietnamese soldiers who had gone on leave for the holiday. Outside of I Corps, where the absentee rate was around 20 percent, most ARVN units were at about half strength when the truce was cancelled. Allied forces thus were partially off balance when the Communists began their nationwide attacks in the early hours of 31 January."Lienanhhippo (talk) 09:06, 31 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

fyi, I mentioned you in the evidence section of the pending Conduct in deletion-related editing Arbcom case, in the context of an ANI closure summary that I cited, i.e. There is consensus that the mergers and/or redirects by Mztourist at issue here, which concern articles about people after whom ships were named, were appropriate.

You made huge edits to Operation Flat Top, removing all of the background that justified the extraordinary and unique ship conversion project in the first place. I have restored the content you deleted. Your edit summary supplied a link to "my discussion" that does not exist. Please use the article's Talk page to describe your concerns that justify removing all of the background information. This will allow multiple WP editors to discuss such a large edit that I believe negatively impacts the notability of the ship conversion project.

I just saw the news coverage of the four recent recipients of the Medal of Honor, so naturally I checked to see if they were properly reflected on Wikipedia. I saw that you had already updated List of Medal of Honor recipients for the Vietnam War to include them.

The purpose of the {{Other ships}} template is to link to "...other ships with the same name" - i.e. to the disambiguation pages - you replaced a link to the disambiguation page with a link to the same ship - i.e. definitely the wrong article for a diambiguation hatnote - although it is arguable whether the hatnote should just cover HMS Venerable as there are separate articles (HNLMS Karel Doorman (R81) and ARA Veinticinco de Mayo (V-2)) for the ship's service under those names. The articles on the Argentine and Netherlands service are linked immediately below in the lede - but if they do need to be hatnoted, they should be done in separate hatnotes (perhaps {{About}} or something similar) rather than saying that HNLMS Karel Doorman (R81) is a different ship, which is what your edit suggests.Nigel Ish (talk) 09:22, 1 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
Hi, there are various IP accounts that make disruptive edits to Vietnam War pages that both you and I have dealt with before. One of the IPs was banned in October for 2 months for disruptive edits on Vietnam war casualties and other pages. The IPs are clearly one user but I suspect they are also the same user behind Cucthanh who was banned last month as a sockpuppet of an old user MiG29VN. Some of the IPs are 103.3.255.99, 2001:EE0:4A63:6670:45A3:8FC4:2F77:BDEF, 113.160.158.12, 2001:EE0:4A61:5D30:9401:AC78:E87F:F468, 117.5.147.200, 27.73.73.44 and 27.3.144.184. They are all fixated on casualties, including Easter Offensive: 1 and 2. Both edit summaries have the same poor grammar. They also make edits regarding the Vietnamese government's official figures: 1, 2, 3 and 4. There are plenty of other similarities. Karsdorp85 (talk) 11:15, 13 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello,
Do you have any evidence the 164th Aviation Group is linked to the current 164th Theater Airfield Operations Group?
According to 1st Aviation Brigade#Formation and Vietnam service it does but no reference is given. According to 164th TAOG History on Army.mil the 164 TAOG links back to the 284th Aviation Company (Air Traffic Control).

Hi, I enjoyed your contribution on 2nd Marine Division (South Korea). I'm South Korean. I really thank you. I think that military is your area of expertise.
Can I ask you a favor of you? I am under dispute about removal of Spartan 3000 on the List of military special forces units (Refer to [page page])
ROKMC Quick Maneuver Force (Spartan 3000) is a just Rapid Deployment Force, definitely not the Special Force Unit and currently, Spartan 3000 is discarded nickname. So I want to remove this unit on the list.
But only one user don't want to remove. His references are Western sources. But this user's Western sources have translation errors or jounalistic exaggerations and Western report mistook ROK Marine Corps Quick Maneuver Force for ROK Army 13th Special Mission Brigade
In the near future, I'll open a case on the Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard. If you have a spare time, Please participate in discussion.
If you have any questions about South Korean military including 2nd Marine Brigade, Capital Mechanized Infantry Division, 9th Infantry Division (Republic of Korea) and South Korean forces in the Vietnam War. Please feel free to contact me. I have many references and I can help you.
Thank you.

Hi again, so far, we already have two recent users trying to disrupt the United States war crimes article by adding events that were clearly not illegal at the time, then engage in WP:EW when I revert them. Of those, one of them is Freoh, who adds back much of Volume2KWestOG's content on the basis that "independent" sources said so without regards to their legality/illegality under international law. Then when I revert his edit and told him to discuss in a talk page, he retaliated by adding in an article's header that says "This article is missing information about air bombings of civilian populations. Please expand the article to include this information. Further details may exist on the talk page" without actually discussing the issue on the talk page. Hope you can be active in the article more, because there's a lot of other stuff that I have to deal with and I can't deal with more than once. Thank you.

Hello! I am new to the platform and was wondering if the Matt Larson article that was deleted had any redeemable traits? I am quite interested in military articles, and Matt Larson's impact on the army is quite large. I am wondering if his impact should not just be viewed from the context of martial artists but also from the context of his impact on the US Army. Would a revised article with a substantial reduction in self-serving/glorifying references be possible in your mind? Water1968 (talk)
