April 2010 GAN backlog elimination drive

WikiProject Good Articles will be running a GAN backlog elimination drive for the entire month of April. The goal of this drive is to bring the number of outstanding Good Article nominations down to below 200. This will help editors in restoring confidence to the GAN process as well as actively improving, polishing, and rewarding good content. If you are interested in participating in the drive, please place your name here. Awards will be given out to those who review certain numbers of GANs as well as to those who review the most. Hope we can see you in April.

An expert opinion is needed.

Can you give me two cents on this discussion here? I'm bit new on content issue like this. Jim101 (talk) 17:30, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

Korean War

Ed, I hope you don't mind. You had many infelicitous verb conjugations, and unfortunate prose etc., in your article at FA. I've fixed a lot of them, and hope I haven't messed up the content. Please forgive me if I've tread on your toes. Auntieruth55 (talk) 00:45, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

William F. Dean and the Battle of Taejon

Hi Ed. Cheers for the explanation, makes sense. From reading the article IMO Dean's conduct was quite remarkable and worthy of the award he later received. Good work on a whole range of Korean War articles too BTW. Take it easy. ChoraPete (talk) 15:16, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

GA review for the Battle of Naktong Bulge

I wanted to let you know I passed the Battle of Naktong Bulge as GA. The only thing I could find that I think needs to be addressed is one disambiguous link that you can find in my review comments. Good job. --Kumioko (talk) 16:13, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

Very nice article on the Battle of Naktong Bulge. I made all uses of "U.S." consistent. In a number of places you had "US". Also expanded all "NK" to "North Korean". As a webmaster I was taught early on that while these shortcuts might save space on paper (and therefore money), we've no shortage of electrons which cost us nothing. I wish I had the time to write such an article, but I write mostly shorter articles on individuals that sometimes make it to B-class. The Korean War is fascinating and, as a former USMC officer, I enjoy reading about U.S. Marine actions in that war. Ever read "The Coldest Night"? Thomas R. Fasulo (talk) 14:24, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

I have not. Do you think it would make a good source? —Ed!^(talk) 17:12, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

2 more GA's

I just promoted 2 more of your articles. The Battle of the Notch only had a disambiguous (DAB) link for 24th Division and Battle of Chochiwon has on DAB link for Chonan but other than that all is well. I left my comments on both of the articles. Good job. --Kumioko (talk) 19:01, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

Battle of Taejon

• I've been sick the past couple days. I could putter around a bit with AWB or other things that didn't require concentration, but couldn't... concentrate. I still have an earache at the moment, but will try to look at it now.
• The thing that concerns me is the example I posted earlier of statements that were not found in the sources. I'm hoping you didn't rush to write things without carefully researching them. • Ling.Nut 03:46, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

GAN backlog elimination drive - 1 week to go

First off, on behalf of myself and my co-coordinator Wizardman, I would like to thank you for the efforts that you have made so far in this GAN backlog elimination drive. It has been nothing short of a success, and that is thanks to you. See this Signpost article about what this drive has achieved so far. We're currently heading into the final week of the drive. At this time, if you have any GANs on review or on hold, you should be finishing off those reviews. Right now, we have more GANs on review or on hold than we do unreviewed. If you're going to start a GA review, please do so now so you can complete it by the end of the month and so that the nominator has a full 7-day window to address any concerns. See you at the finish!

Lee Kwon Mu

Just shifting through some Chinese records and found some pieces of information that may be interesting...

Lee Kwon Mu has a Chinese name called Li Quanwu (李权武), born in 1914 - since his brith place is unknown, it is disputed on whether he is a Korean or a Chinese of Korean descent. He joined the Chinese Communist guerrillas at the age of 17 after the Japanese invasion of Manchuria. In 1936, he was sent to Moscow to study by the Chinese Communist, and returned to Yan'an in 1939, which was then the headquarters of the Chinese Communist Eighth Route Army. He served as a staff officer in the 718th Regiment of the Chinese 358 Brigade, 120th Division stationed in Central China, and a large number of Korean Communist were also recuited at Central China after the Japanese destroyed the Communist forces in Manchuria. He later served as an intelligence officer for the Chinese Korean Volunteer Army after the Korean Independence Alliance was formed by the Korean memebers of the Chinese Communist Party. Lee appears to have a rather rocky relationship with Korean Independence Alliance and did not serve any important positions within the organization despite his qualification. Anyway, as the Chinese story goes, soon after the Japanese surrenderred, he quickly returned to Korea because he believed he has no room for advancement in China, and rest of his story is with the KPA.

Thank you for your participation in the April 2010 GAN backlog elimination drive

GAN backlog elimination drives chart up to 1 May On behalf of my co-coordinator Wizardman, I'd like to especially thank you for your efforts over this past month's GAN backlog elimination drive. It has been nothing short of a complete success, which hopefully results in more expedient good article reviews, increasing users' confidence in the good article nomination processes. Even if you made just a small contribution, it still helped contribute to the success of this drive. Here is what we have accomplished this last month in this drive. 661 total nominations were reviewed. 541 of them passed (~81.8%), 97 (~14.7%) failed, and 23 (~3.5%) ended on hold. The WP:GAN page started at 110,126 bytes length on 1 April and ended at 43,387 bytes length at the end of 30 April (a 66,739 byte reduction in the page, about 60.6% less). Excluding extremes, the longest wait for someone's GAN to be review was about 11.5 weeks at the beginning. (I mistook the figure when I reported to the Signpost that it was 13.) At the end, with the exception of one that was relisted, the longest wait is now at 10 days. 63 different users participated, each having completed at least one GAN, with others also having helped out behind-the-scenes in making the drive a success. The drive started with 463 GA nominations remaining and 388 unreviewed. At the end of the month, we ended with 89 remaining (374 or about 80.8% less) and 47 unreviewed (341 or about 87.9% less). For those who have accomplished certain objectives in the drive, awards will be coming shortly. Again, thank you for your help in the drive, and I hope you continue to help review GA nominations and overall improve the quality of articles here on Wikipedia.

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Karanacs (talk) 17:29, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Possible copyright violations

Hi, Ed! We may have a problem with some articles which you created. I am currently investigating a Wikipedia copyright infringement report concerning text from the Globalsecurity.org website. I noticed you were quite prolific a few years back -- creating numerous articles about US military units and linking them to the globalsecurity.org. For example, 194th Engineer Brigade (United States) seems to be a direct copy from this page. Did you copy the text from Globalsecurity.org into the Wikipedia articles? If that is the case, than we will need to template all those articles so that you and others can edit/remove/clean-up any infringing text. I may be missing something here, so I am hoping you can help clarify this first. — CactusWriter ^(talk) 18:31, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Yes, unfortunately a few years ago when I was not aware of Wikipedia's policies I think I copied several articles from Global Secuity. All of them are US Army Brigade articles. I more or less have a list of them and I have been meaning to go back and take that stuff out. —Ed!^(talk) 20:16, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Okay. I understand, Ed!. I see that there was some copying from some other websites as well (e.g. 15th Sustainment Brigade from [1] -- which actually might be okay since US Army military page's are usually public domain -- but that one does have a copyright stamp on the bottom. I'll check into that further). But because of the large list of articles created, I think it is best to create a WP:CCI workpage so they can be covered methodically. Do you remember if the copy-pasting occurred only on articles you created, or might you have done the same with other pages already created? And if you do have a list of articles, it would be great if you could provide that. Thanks. — CactusWriter ^(talk) 21:28, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

I'm happy to say the list of copyvios committed is actually much smaller than the total number of articles created, as I was told of my error within a few months, and I later worked to push many of the articles to B or GA anyway. There were still a few I had decided to eventually get more info for. Here are the ones still containing copyvio:

1. 7th_Sustainment_Brigade_(United_States)  Done
2. 15th Sustainment Brigade  Done
3. 501st_Sustainment_Brigade_(United_States)
4. 593rd_Sustainment_Brigade_(United_States)
5. 321st_Sustainment_Brigade_(United_States)
6. 555th_Engineer_Brigade_(United_States)
7. 55th_Sustainment_Brigade_(United_States)
8. 48th_Infantry_Brigade_Combat_Team_(United_States)
9. 29th_Infantry_Brigade_Combat_Team_(United_States)
10. 27th_Infantry_Brigade_Combat_Team_(United_States)
11. 76th_Infantry_Brigade_Combat_Team_(United_States)
12. 53rd_Infantry_Brigade_Combat_Team_(United_States)
13. 218th_Maneuver_Enhancement_Brigade_(United_States)
14. 92nd_Maneuver_Enhancement_Brigade_(United_States)
15. 50th_Infantry_Brigade_Combat_Team_(United_States)
16. 43rd_Military_Police_Brigade_(United_States)  Done text re-attributed
17. 420th_Engineer_Brigade_(United_States)  Done -- no copyvio
18. 194th_Engineer_Brigade_(United_States)
19. 926th_Engineer_Brigade_(United_States)  Done -- no copyvio
20. 372nd_Engineer_Brigade_(United_States)  Done -- no copyvio
21. 369th_Sustainment_Brigade_(United_States)  Done

I should cautiton you that I've found many of the articles of this type (US Army Military Units) tend to attract overzealous US Army members who do not understand that copying stuff from the unit website is not OK. Eyeballing my articles created these are the ones I suspect to have copyvio content added by me and others. I am sure there are more articles in this general category that contain more copyvio material. Of all the hundreds of US Army unit articles, all but a half dozen or so have been promoted beyond start-class by me, while others have added large amounts of stuff directly from government websites. —Ed!^(talk) 23:05, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Great. Thanks for this list, Ed. And, yes, there are many editors who believe copying the unit website is okay. Sometimes this is simply a belief that all DoD webpages are public domain. Unfortunately, that's not the case. By the way, I did recheck the 15th Sustainment Brigade, and confirmed the entire history section is still a copyright infringement of the unit website. Although the DoD hosts the webpage, they do include a disclaimer stating they are not responsible for the pages, and thus it is not part of their public domain material. And about all those other hundreds of US Army unit articles... I know, I know, I know. Ugh. I'm a bit loath to start checking into them. So, for the moment, let's see if we can get the list above corrected. It appears to be mostly the history sections which are copied and need to be removed. It'll be a big task to quickly revise the text on all the articles, so it would be a good idea to stub them now until they can be rebuilt. Are you okay with that? — CactusWriter ^(talk) 23:47, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Ed!, I now think there is a better solution here. It appears the globalsecurity website often duplicates information from the military unit's official website. And those military website pages are public domain (with only a few exceptions). If you can find the same text on the the army.mil site, and the site uses their standard release ( Information presented on this site is considered public information and may be distributed or copied.), than you should be able to simply re-attribute the text to the army website and add the template:US Army to the bottom reference section. For example, I have done this with the 7th_Sustainment_Brigade_(United_States) article. we should be able to save most of the text this way. — CactusWriter ^(talk) 20:40, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Re:Commander

The best bet would be the book The Korean War: Volume I (ISBN 0803277946), although my copy still got stuck during shipping. The catch is that division level organizations in Korean (and Chinese) military only has the importance of regiments when compared to US military, therefore their commanders are not really notable figures unless they were attached to an American corps. Jim101 (talk) 20:48, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

I found two missing commanders in the book Paik, Sun Yup (1992), From Pusan to Panmunjom, Riverside, NJ: Brassey Inc, ISBN 0028810023

Talk:HMS Lowestoffe (1761)/GA1

I believe everything had been addressed. Will tackle Concorde tomorrow. Not used to cleaning up ship articles, though it's a nice change of pace. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 22:04, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

HMS Concorde (1783) is now done as well. Thanks for the reviews. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 18:39, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

DYK for Chaplain-Medic massacre

— Rlevse • Talk • 18:03, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

In the Hill 303 article you say it was the first atrocity. But the Chaplain-Medic atrocity occurred a month earlier. Can you clarify this? Thanks. Great articles! — Rlevse • Talk • 23:40, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Fixed. —Ed!^(talk) 05:56, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Hey, just a quick note. You might want to check the contribution first, you thanked at least a couple anon people so far tonight for vandalism. Aaron north (T/C) 03:11, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Hmm. My mistake. I've been trying to revert all the vandalism I see but some of it has been tricky to spot. Or maybe I hit the wrong button accidentally. hmm... —Ed!^(talk) 03:19, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

766th Independent Infantry Regiment (North Korea)

Congratulations for creating such a good article on a quite low-covered topic of the project! It was a fine read! --Eurocopter (talk) 18:04, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks very much! I hope I can get it to A-class and see where it goes from there. —Ed!^(talk) 23:55, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Congratulations!

		The Military history A-Class medal with oak leaves
		For prolific work on Hadong Ambush, Chaplain-Medic massacre, and 766th Independent Infantry Regiment (North Korea), which were promoted to A-class between October and November 2010, by order of the coordinators of the Military history WikiProject you are hereby awarded the A-Class medal with Oak Leaves. Congratulations! EyeSerenetalk 10:51, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

NK Commanders

Give me a list of names and I'll see what I dig up in Chinese archives. Although I have to warn you that don't expect miracles, because Chinese normally ignore the North Korean actions during the Korean War. It would also help if you drop a note on the North Korea working group. Jim101 (talk) 16:59, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

Okay, getting photo from Chinese sources is tougher than I expected. The first way to get photo is to catch them during their Chinese Communist days, but those photo (if existed) are in the Beijing Archive in the "classified" pile. The second way to get photo is to catch them during photo ops during the war, but most of photo ops are between Peng Dehuai and Kim Il-sung. This is somewhat beyond my means for the moment. I would suggest contacting people who have access to Russian or South Korean photos. Jim101 (talk) 17:53, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

Additional notes...Chinese don't openly talk about the Korean Volunteer Army that served in China (where most of the North Korean generals spent their early life) because it implicates them for starting the Korean War, so most of the information I can find on the issue are either leaks or rumors. Only few selected scholars have access to such information, which are locked in the Beijing Archive. Jim101 (talk) 18:00, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject East Asia Invite

Hello there. I randomly found myself at FAC today, and found myself at your FAC for the North Korean military unit. As a talent scout of sorts for two WikiProjects which I helped found, I decided to do some light digging to see where you contributed content. Well, you impressed me. Your work in the area of the Korean War, including both strong content generation and content reviewing, lead me to believe that you can be of great benefit to this new project. The formal invite is below:

Thank you for your consideration, Sven Manguard _Talk 05:48, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Ursula and Sabina Eriksson external link removed

Dear Wikipedia talk page users,

                             I am new to editing Wikipedia and I don't understand why an external link and reference I placed on the article 'Ursula and Sabina Eriksson' was removed?

My external link http://www.davidicke.com/forum/showthread.php?t=36973&page=76 was to in reference to 'The killing of Glenn Hollinshead'.

Glenn Hollinshead's own brother Jon, posted a few lengthy forum threads regarding the incident.

I referenced the part where Glenn Hollinshead said Sabina Eriksson had 3 mobile phones and a laptop with her which seemed odd at the time. (She was also carrying multiple mobile phones, as well as a laptop.)

I added the external link http://www.davidicke.com/forum/showthread.php?t=36973&page=76 as this seems to be an important source 'straight from the horses mouth' so to speak. This link is also hard to find, however seems to be important information. I suspect because Jon Hollinshead's forum thread is on a controversial site, the link may have been removed?

Please advise on a link or something regarding this Wikipedia policy.

Also, I am considering adding how Ursula Eriksson calmly and carefully placed her handbag next to Sabina Eriksson's handbag on the motorway, before running off into a lorry truck.

The handbags seem important to the twins from

a: the careful placing of Ursula's handbag on the motorway

b: the twins clinging tightly to their bags at Keele services when trying to reenter the bus

c: Sabina Eriksson having 3 mobiles with her at Glenn Hollinshead's home (I'm assuming the mobiles were carried in Sabina's handbag).

This small piece of information, if added to Wikipedia, may assist in someone else adding further information on why this happened.

Yours sincerely, eiger3970. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eiger3970 (talk • contribs) 00:31, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, I don't think I can help you...I haven't worked with that article. —Ed!^(talk) 02:14, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Battle of Hwanggan

Hi mate, just verifying last month's contest entries -- this article's project banners seem to have been created with B-Class already there -- I realise it may be a cut-and-paste mistake but did someone independently verify the assessment? If so, they should put a note on the talk page to that effect (and ASAP so it can be scored for the contest)... Cheers, Ian Rose (talk)

N.B. Same for Battle of Yongdong... Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 02:03, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Ah. No, I didn't have someone do that independently. I created both of those articles and expanded them so quickly I didn't think to add the talkheaders until they were both up for GAN. No one else has verified either of them to be B (I was under the impression I was to do that myself) but both are up to GAN and I'm sure anyone who looks at them will agree. Sorry if I did something incorrectly. —Ed!^(talk) 02:13, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Well, B-Class assessments should always be done by another party -- I think the most we can self-assess is Start-Class. If these had already passed at GA, wouldn't really be an issue. I'm not necessarily saying they're not B, but that's not for the main editor to say. I'm happy to check them and verify independently for its own sake but if we play strictly by the contest rules they probably aren't eligible for scoring in the November contest -- don't think this has come up before and definitely don't want to make a federal case about it but on the other hand they might be more valuable to you in next month's contest anyway... ;-) Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 03:05, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

That's no problem...I'll just claim them on next month's contest then. Thanks for letting me know, I wasn't aware of those rules. —Ed!^(talk) 03:07, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Question

I saw you work with the Korean war and North Korea military articles. I have a question about it. Does North Korea have a foreign volunteer division or unit? Spongie555 (talk) 00:02, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

As far as I've seen, no. During the Korean War it may have allowed communist sympathizers to join its ranks but for the most part these were probably few and far between. The North Koreans actually did a lot of forcible conscription of South Koreans from areas they had captured. —Ed!^(talk) 00:12, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

Did the Korean War Actually end?

Hello Ed!. Since you are one of the primary contributors to Korean War articles i thought you might be interested in joining the current discussion on the Korean War talk page regarding whether or not the Korean War has ended and whether or not the various incidents along the border since 1953 can be considered part of the Korean War. I would much value your opinion on the issue. The current discussion can be found here [[2]] Thanks!XavierGreen (talk) 20:36, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi! First of all, thanks for starting the review for this article. An anonymous IP address just passed the article though; was that you? --Sherif9282 (talk) 20:50, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Yeah that was me. Sorry, I was in a rush. —Ed!^(talk) 04:53, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

FYI

Tom and I have recently put together a guide on closing milhist ACRs. I've used an article of yours as an example. I probably should have asked for your permission first, but it's only just occurred to me - please accept my apologies for the omission, and if you have any objections just let me know and I'll rewrite the page content. Best, EyeSerene^talk 17:07, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject East Asia Scope & Ratings

Hello. This message is to inform you that I have called for a reexamination of the scope document and the ratings system used by the project. The ratings system especially has run into problems and could benefit from a simplification and generalizations. The scope, too, could be reexamined to the same end. Please come to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject East Asia and discuss the matters so that we can reach a community consensus. I'd like to have it done before Christmas, so I can spend the break making any necessary changes. The importance discussion is at the top of the page. The scope discussion is at the bottom, but we can move them together if we need to.

Thank you, Sven Manguard Wha? 07:16, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Re: Image question

Works created by US government employees in their line of duties are considered to be in the public domain (without copyrights); the non-commercial clause would not be applicable in that case. File:24th Infantry in Korea.jpg is verifiably by the US Signal Corps (so no problems with this one), but how sure is it for File:US Retreat from Taejon.jpg to be taken by a US government employee (and not a photograph given to them by a South Korean, or collected from a news reporter)? It might be best to contact the Air and Space Museum or the office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs to ascertain the origin of the photograph or identity of the photographer. If the photographer is a US government employee and the photograph was taken in the course of his or her duty, the image is in the public domain, no matter what conditions or restrictions they laid.

Korean War

Thank you for the welcome; I will be creating an account in January, though I plan to help with the updating of governors and congresspersons as they change office 1-17 January & 3 January, respectively. Given your intersst in the Korean War, I was stationed in the Republic of Korea most of the period between Aug 1988 and Aug 2003. I took the guided tour of the DMZ by South Korea's 1st Division, and have been to the (U.S.) 2d Infantry Division museum at Camp Red Cloud. I wanted to bring to your attention the Liscum Bowl, as well as suggesting the museum as a resource for images, references, and background you might be interested in. :D 75.203.255.157 (talk) 05:34, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks very much! I will look into that. —Ed!^(talk) 05:52, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

Korean War CMH Sources

I saw that you didn't link to Appleman's full text online in some of your articles and FYI, the CMH is in the process of putting up many of their books online, and the Korean War ones are up at http://www.history.army.mil/html/bookshelves/resmat/kw.html . I am working on trying to get them to cooperate with the Wikimedia community, so maybe if they see more of their publications referenced they may be interested :) Thanks much, Sadads (talk) 07:14, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Battle of the Bowling Alley

Ed, I don't know if that article is headed to FAC at some point ... whether it is or not, I'm going back through the articles that I partially copyedited for A-class and doing the whole thing, but I'd like for folks to either review the new checklist themselves or get someone else to do it before I get started. I got the intro and the first section done for this article at A-class. Looking quickly through the article, there are problems with the "Consistency" point at the checklist. - Dank (push to talk) 16:57, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

No worries. I'll re-copy edit that one before I take it to FAC. —Ed!^(talk) 22:12, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Give me a holler when you're done, please. - Dank (push to talk) 22:28, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Not a problem. It will probably be a few weeks though; I intend to nominate that article next after my Hill 303 massacre FAC is done. —Ed!^(talk) 22:52, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia Ambassador Program is looking for new Online Ambassadors

Hi Ed! I noticed your activity as a Good Article reviewer, and wanted to let you know about the Wikipedia Ambassador Program, and specifically the role of Online Ambassador. We're looking for friendly Wikipedians who are good at reviewing articles and giving feedback to serve as mentors for students who are assigned to write for Wikipedia in their classes.

If you're interested, I encourage you to take a look at the Online Ambassador guidelines; the "mentorship process" describes roughly what will be expected of mentors in the coming term. If that's something you want to do, please apply!

You can find instructions for applying at WP:ONLINE. The main things we're looking for in Online Ambassadors are friendliness, regular activity (since mentorship is a commitment that spans several months), and the ability to give detailed, substantive feedback on articles (both short new articles, and longer, more mature ones).

I hope to hear from you soon.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 22:21, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Battle of Pusan Perimeter logistics copy edit

He, Ed! I've done a bit of copy editing work on the Battle of Pusan Perimeter logistics article, but there were a couple of inconsistencies that I wasn't sure how to handle. These are:

• use of both U.S. and US abbreviation (for example "U.S. President Harry S. Truman" as opposed to "US 24th Infantry Division").
  • Fixed. —Ed!^(talk) 05:24, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
• tonnes and tons? For instance compare: "100 tonnes (98 LT; 110 ST)" with "69,390 short tons (62,950 t)";
  • That's a product of the conversion template. How do I go about changing that? —Ed!^(talk) 05:24, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
    • I'm really not sure, I'm sorry. AustralianRupert (talk) 08:40, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Would you mind taking a look at the article when you get a chance? No rush from my point of view. Please also review the edits I have made. Hopefully I haven't changed your meaning, but if I have, feel free to tweak or revert. Cheers. AustralianRupert (talk) 04:48, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
