italian aircraft - thanks!
Spot87, thank you so much for your recent Italian WWII aircraft submissions. It's probably pretty obvious that we've not done a very good job covering italian stuff at
- Sounds good. I just discovered that any and all WWI and WWII photos taken in Italy are now public domain! Most of what you find online should be covered by {{PD-Italy}}, so if you find images that work with your articles, make use! ericg ✈ 03:48, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
citing the encyclopedia of weapons of ww2
I've gone and made a template to use when citing The Encyclopedia of Weapons of World War II. The template is {{Ref WW2}}, and it lets you add chapter and page information in the syntax {{ref WW2 | Weapon Name | 123 }}
. The code is a duplicate of the template {{Ref Jane's}}, which I use frequently. Citing chapter and page makes wikipedia that much more verifiable, and it's a quick entry. Here's how it looks with some bogus info:
- ‘Breda Ba.65’ 1998, in C Bishop (ed.), The Encyclopedia of Weapons of World War II, Barnes & Noble, New York, p. 312. ISBN 0-7607-1022-8.
Leaving the fields after ref WW2 blank will output the same information you've been using to date. Thanks again for your recent contributions, I hope to be learning even more about Italian aircraft soon. :) ericg ✈ 03:28, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
- Cool. If you like, you can always double-check what's in wikipedia against your source - lots of aircraft are missing citations for specifications or just missing references in general. If you back them up against a source and cite it, that's just as good as writing a new article. ericg ✈ 15:46, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
Infobox
There is a consensus discussion on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aircraft#Infobox Aicraft consensus discussion on adopting a non-specifications summary infobox for aircraft articles. Your comments would be appreciated. Thanks! - Emt147 Burninate! 18:42, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Hello, thanks for assessing some articles, but please don't forget to leave your comment. For most it will be as easy as a quick "It's one line long, stats need updating" and whatnot.

Minor Planet articles
Do not forget to check for alternate designations; you can either use the MPC interactive service (http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/iau/MPDes.html) or go directly to the JPL pages (http://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/sbdb.cgi?sstr=99 for 99 Dike, for example). Alternate designations (like the discovery data) are not in astorb.dat, so AstOrb Browser cannot generate them automatically. Take care! Urhixidur 17:58, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

File:BredaBa.65.jpg needs authorship information
The media file you uploaded as File:BredaBa.65.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.
It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.
Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).
- If you created this media yourself, please consider explicitly including your user name, for which:
{{subst:usernameexpand|Spot87}}
will produce an appropriate expansion,
or use the {{own}} template.
- If this is an old image, for which the authorship is unknown or impossible to determine, please indicate this on the file description page.

File source problem with File:BredaBa.65.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:BredaBa.65.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
