Thanks for

Did you know that you do not have to have all of the parameters of the cite web template in for it to work? See Template:Cite_web#Usage for what I mean....it may make your life here less cluttered. the_ed17 15:25, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, (you don't have to) but you may want to take a look at this page:

I nominated it there, crediting you. Feel free to add another nom or replace mine with a better one. ^-talk- the_ed17 ^-contribs- 16:03, 6 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

...you've contributed heavily to for GA and possibly FA? The articles are very good, like

Hi! I have completed the GA review of USS Triton (SSRN-586), with the full review being located at Talk:USS Triton (SSRN-586)/GA1, and also accessible through the article talk page. I have several MOS, image and referencing concerns with the article that need to be addressed before the article can become a GA. As I noted on the review page, I am very willing to help with the MOS issues, but I probably will not have time until sometime tomorrow. If you have any questions, please let me know on the review page or on my talk page. Dana boomer (talk) 20:45, 9 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll help you as much as I can as well, but if there are any questions about numbers/facts/figures/references etc. you'll have to answer them—I don't know a thing about the Triton. =/ Cheers, ^-talk- the_ed17 ^-contribs- 04:15, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can you work on this some? I've got class, but I'll be back as soon as I can... ^-talk- the_ed17 ^-contribs- 15:51, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Do you want me to archive your talk page for you so that it's not so bloody long? =) ^-talk- the_ed17 ^-contribs- 21:06, 13 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WP:How to archive a talk page is the link that you'd be looking for. Just take your pick; it's easiest to just move it to a subpage such as User talk:Marcd30319/Archive 1, but that still leaves you with a very LONG archive 1. You may want to use the cut & paste and split the pages.... Unless of course you want to remove the redundant messages i.e. the image copyright messages that you have resolved.... I'll do it if you want. =D ^-talk- the_ed17 ^-contribs- 13:40, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply

Hello. I figured that I'd stop in, say hi, and see if you needed any help. It doesn't look like it (you're gonna be a DYK master!!) but you never know....and by the way, I like your shortened talk page here. =) Cheers! —the_ed17— 18:41, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey again Marc...a GA review for Carrier Air Wing Six is open. This one should be a bit easier, the only thing holding it up is references for the tables. —the_ed17— 17:43, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Sighs* I guess that there is not enough prose in the article... —the_ed17— 17:33, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you wanted to show your accomplishments here thus far on articles, try using {{User Good Article}} and put them on your userpage... At the least, you could put these:

This user helped promote Carrier Air Wing Six to good article status.

This user helped promote USS Triton (SSRN-586) to good article status.

on there (I don't know if you have any other good articles done.)

Also, for your DYK's (I don't know how many you have =]), you could use {{User Did You Know2}}...putting the number of DYK's in after...i.e. if you have 5 DYK's , then {{User Did You Know2|5}} would produce

This user has been a major contributor to 5 articles featured in the Did you know... section on the Main Page.

If you wanted to do that, it helps to keep track of what important stuff you have done...and if you ever

• Ref 2:I don't know if {{Cite web}} can handle multiple links...just type it out manually :)
• Ref 3: looks weird...it looks like it was published on Septembver 4th, but it was retrieved on the 3rd??
• Refs 9 + 10 + 48 + 52: all need retrieval dates. :D
• Ref 17: is broken somehow...
• Ref 25 & 28: use {{cite book}} instead...
• Ref 33 & 34: need to be split...one source per #...and then two of them will nee {{cite web}}
• Ref 41: what's the title...?

That was what I got when going through the references as fast as I could. Cheers! —Ed 17 for President _{Vote for Ed} 15:46, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey! Welcome back after your 17 day hiatus! :D What's going on? —Ed 17 for President _{Vote for Ed} 17:15, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Ive been house-sitting. I'm getting back into things now. Wh is the status of the GA re-assessment for

Operation Strikeback?Marcd30319 (talk) 22:55, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply

CVW-6 was de-listed, and Strikeback was failed...

However, if you want, nominate CVW-6 at

FA

without the numerous prose requirements! :)

Also, you can renominate Strikeback if you want (as long as the references are fixed! :D)

As before, if you need help, just ask! —Ed 17 for President _{Vote for Ed} 19:09, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
