Before posting, please follow the NOTES at top of page.

Please place new discussions at the bottom of the talk page.

Welcome to my user talk page
Before posting, please read and follow the notes below.

For matters related to article content, “use the article’s talk page” (most likely on my watchlist), or use the relevant Wiki project talk page (use these for questions, requests for help or advice, etc). That’s the intended purpose of these pages and will get more attention from others. Out of place posts may be removed or moved to a more appropriate talk page. Leave me a note pointing me to a discussion if necessary.

Keep conversations together – I will reply to posts on the talk page where the conversation starts.

Do not take changes to your edits personally. Note the warning on each edit screen: “If you do not want your writing to be edited, used, and redistributed at will, then do not submit it here.” I may revert unexplained (no edit summary) edits that appear unhelpful. To prevent this, provide edit summaries with understandable reason(s) to explain your intent or purpose.

Edits where cited text is changed may be reverted since that violates Wikipedia’s WP:Verify policy. Please provide a reference with your changes, either added in the article or existing reference in article.

Personal attacks will be removed. Unfair and improper criticism will be ignored or removed.
Do your best to make your point without writing paragraphs and paragraphs of text. Excessively long posts will probably be ignored.

Experienced editors are welcome to reply to posts here if they do so nicely.

Add posts to the relevant section or start a new section at the very bottom, thanks.

Please do not introduce links to draft articles in actual articles, as you did to M142 HIMARS. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. – Arjayay (talk) 13:57, 9 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The Draft link was in the M142 HIMARS article previously for a while. I had not seen this reason before. Regards -Fnlayson (talk) 14:17, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
