[edit] Battle of Nasiriyah
I just wanted to commend you on a great job with the Battle of Nasiriyah article. It was in such poor shape and given such little attention that at one point I had nom'd it for AfD. You pretty much single-handedly took it from that to (in my opinion) a start class article. Awesome work and thanks so much! NeoFreak 21:41, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Hi
Maybe you should consider changing your name. Dago as you probably already know, is a serious ethnic slur. Such names are not allowed on this site. Superdude99 11:55, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
Hi, Superdude. Since I'am proud of my Italian ancestry, i have never intended to offend nobody with my nickname. The term "Dago's Navy" was employed by an American Admiral commenting the supposed poor performance of the Italian Fleet in WWII in his Preface to the memories of British Admiral of the Fleet Andrew Cunningham, so I introduced this phrase as a way of mocking those certainly offensive remarks. I guess I could change it to a more suitable one, like "WopsNavy" if you want, but I have already made a lot of contributions under the former nick. I will make the proper changes as soon as possible. Thanks. Dario 12:36, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] No sweat
Hey man, I guess its all about context! Obviously someone who sees your name would/could be offended but seeing how you are Argentinian w Italian ancestry It should not that big of a big deal. Also nice to see someone from agentinia take interest in Irish nationalism! Do you also have Irish ancestry? Superdude99 12:55, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Revolución Libertadora corrections
Thank you for correcting my mistake in editing the Revolucion Libertadora page. Somehow, my signature got put at the top of the page, I am not sure how. I did try to sign my correction, but I don't know how the signature got put at the top of the page. I find some aspects of the editing task with Wiki a bit confusing. Thanks again. I am going to try to sign this edit, without causing the same error again.warshy 10:21, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] IRA Volunteer issue
Go to this page, an Indian guy is being forced by Loyalists and West Brit who are demanding that the rank of Volunteer is banned for describing the rank of members of the IRA – if you do not voice your opinion on this then they are going to get away with this bull Vintagekits 22:33, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] The end of the mediation cabal on the term Volunteer is ending in two days.
The mediation process is ending in two days - you have two days to have you final say and 1. show any proof that Volunteer is a rank and 2. leave your final vote in coming to a consensus here. Thank you.--Vintagekits 22:48, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Sub-eds
Sometimes I've followed your edits and rephrased them (sub-edited) (eg Malta Convoys). I hope this doesn't offend, the intention is to "smooth" the text a bit and correct punctuation. It's not a deliberate chase, just as I see them on my watchlist; probably I'm too fussy. As far as I recall, I don't change the sense without explanation. Let me know if/ when I cause offence and we can resolve peacefully. Folks at 137 13:23, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
