Got it; just learning. Thanks Gwyncann 20:01, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

When a citation is needed, this citation needs to be from a reliable source, see

There are secondary and tertiary references on the net; but the primary sources are printed books. I have referenced two of the most informative of these. Hope that does the trick. Gwyncann 20:03, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

To start with, I split out the part about Project Jennifer. I did keep the stuff from Red Star Rouge. Though I generally agree with you about the book's accuracy, it should be at least mentioned. I did add a bit that made it quite clear that the book was controversial. SirBob42 09:05, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The info on the discussion/my talk page is quite interesting, but I really just missed removing that sentence about recovering all of K-129 from the first paragraph. It is gone now, so all should be well. On a related note, you seem to be more then qualified to add some cites to or edit the Golf Class page, which, given the nature of Project Jennifer would be quite nice.

...for a chat? [1] Hag2 (talk) 16:58, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've recently added cite requested to the chart in the Tuckahoe-Cohee article because from everything I've read about the period in question - first the terms were used pretty loosely and - second a more rigid definition might be more useful. I think the Tuckahoes were the ruling elite and their relatives and close friends in VA and NC. The Cohees were primarily the Presbyterian Scotch Irish/Northern Border English settlers who moved into the trans-Allegheny section of VA and NC. To expand that (as it may have been on occasion) dilutes the meaning. Poor white trash living in coastal VA were not Tuckahoes. And wealthy landowners in western VA were not Cohees. In general this seems clear enough in the article- but becomes distorted in the chart. Lutherans would not generally have been called Cohees nor would they have accepted the Evangelical label in the time period in question. Since you are the main force in this article I'm writing to see if you think I'm wrong in my assumptions.(being wrong would not be a new thing in my life) Nitpyck (talk) 08:49, 29 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current

I noticed you are having trouble with inserting an image into the article. Where is the image? Is it on Wikimedia Commons or elsewhere? Mjroots (talk) 07:25, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Here's the link -- https://library.ucsd.edu/dc/object/bb11273250/zoom/0. You work late!! Thanks for the help. I'll be trying to provide a thumbnail photo of each of the ships surveying the Challenger Deep. --Gwyncann (talk) 07:35, 9 November 2019 (UTC)--Gwyncann (talk) 07:35, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, right. I presumed that ucsd in the

WP:MCQ. If the image is in the public domain, you need to upload a copy at Wikimedia Commons with the appropriate licensing. As I'm in the UK, that was early, not late. BTW, you don't need to sign your edit summaries with four tildes, only talk pages an other non-article pages. Mjroots (talk) 20:36, 10 November 2019 (UTC)[reply

OK, thanks again.Gwyncann (talk) 03:31, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hey: I'm the attorney for Triton Submarines and I put a chonk of stuff on the Challenger Deep talk page because I don't materially edit the content pages myself. However, with the 2020 Ring of Fire expedition underway, and the landing yesterday by Victor Vescovo and Kathryn Sullivan, I wanted to ping you and let you know there was activity in this space again and maybe was wondering if you would take a look at the whole manned, er, crewed mission stuff to get it cleaned up. Happy to feed you refs anywhere you would like to help it along. Thanks!--Brad Patrick (talk) 13:48, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
