HiSds157! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Be our guest at the Teahouse! The Teahouse is a friendly space where new editors can ask questions about contributing to Wikipedia and get help from experienced editors like Cullen328 (talk).
I think you didn't check for the links I cited for the changes. For M4 carbine, I clearly cited the data from Military-Today database [1]. Same is true for the M16 rifle [2] The weights of the M4 and M16 were in metric format so I converted them to imperial format. So, next time check stuffs in a proper way before making unnecessary edits. Thank you. Sds157 (talk) 14:39, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Neither of the sources contain the loaded weight, which you still changed. If you are going to change two pieces of information, you will need to provide a source that verifies both parts, not just one. Loafiewa (talk) 14:46, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You do realize that the weight of a loaded 30 round magazine is quoted right in the Wikipedia article. By using simple mathematical operation called addition you can find the loaded weight of the gun. Sds157 (talk) 14:50, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That still constitutes SYNTH. As mentioned there: "If one reliable source says A, and another reliable source says B, do not join A and B together to imply a conclusion C that is not mentioned by either of the sources." Loafiewa (talk) 14:58, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
How will they contradict each other. Those two aforemtioned citations are for two different weapons. One is for M4 carbine and other is for M16 rifle. Check the latest edits, the issue with citations and the weight of those two firearms have been fixed. Sds157 (talk) 15:12, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
As for the McNab citation, it's better if you remove them because it's quite evident from their quotations about the weight that their data is erroneous. Sds157 (talk) 15:15, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited AK-12, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page AK-15. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
I find this comment of yours (used for an edit in 2021) to be somewhat of WP:RUDE.
Removed Fedorov Avtomat because it was a battle rifle. Whoever made that entry has no clue about the difference between an assault rifle and a battle rifle. The Avtomat fired full power ammo. A battle rifle that is capable of firing in fully automatic mode but unlike an assault rifle it uses full power ammo.
Please do not add or change content, as you did at M4 carbine, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Loafiewa (talk) 14:23, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at M16 rifle, you may be blocked from editing. Loafiewa (talk) 14:25, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
