Welcome to the Military history WikiProject![edit]

Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.

A few features that you might find helpful:

There are a variety of interesting things to do within the project; you're free to participate however much—or little—you like:

  • Starting some new articles? Our article structure guidelines outline some things to include.
  • Interested in working on a more complete article? The military history peer review and collaboration departments would welcome your help!
  • Interested in a particular area of military history? We have a number of task forces that focus on specific nations or periods.
  • Want to know how good our articles are? The assessment department is working on rating the quality of every military history article in Wikipedia.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the project coordinators, or any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! Kirill Lokshin 18:02, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Irony[edit]

Your comment Please stop your pro-Chinese propaganda campaign. This is not what wikipedia stands for, we stand for an NPOV. Free Taiwan.El benderson 20:37, 7 June 2006 (UTC) is not exactly NPOV. I suggest you not chastise other users on NPOV then make a POV statement... Sasquatch t|c 05:38, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes... an admin sockpuppet. I also suggest you stop making wild and baseless accusations as they may be interpreted as incivil... along with profanity. Consider this your first civility warning. Sasquatch t|c 02:27, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If you're referring to the "sock puppet warning" on my page, you should probably read up on this. And as for calling me a "commie" you might be somewhat shocked to know that my family left China to escape communism (like about a billion other people)... And as for being out of line, you clearly need to do some self-reflection. Anyways, just stop being rude and you'll be fine on Wikipedia. Continue, and you will be blocked from editing. That's it folks. Have a nice day. Sasquatch t|c 02:34, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Where's the hammer and sickle? I see a flag of China which has 5 yellow stars on a red background. And it's simply a note of where I'm from. Again, say anything else about a "purge", accuse anyone of being "communist" in a personal manner in violation of WP:NPA (note the Comment on content, not on the contributor. part). I suggest you leave the conversation here as I already have been more than leanient with you. I'm simply assuming you're not completely familiar with Wikipedia policy and that you are a rational person most of the time. Good night. Sasquatch t|c 02:43, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
OH! HAHA! That's another joke you probably just don't get yet. Follow the "Cabal of One" link (which is a play on "Army of One") to There Is No Cabal. And I am having a rational talk but when you say "You yell at me about NPOV, but your the fucking sock puppet.El benderson 02:25, 15 June 2006 (UTC)," I tend not to respond to nicely. The first warning was just telling you not to purposely provoke other users with a clearly POV statement. As I said, if you wish to continue editing here: 1) don't be making provocative statements about other people being POV then make a POV statement yourself and 2) don't swear at other users or make accusations about them being "commie" or otherwise. In otherwords, just play nice. I'm a rather humorous guy and I can understand your misunderstandings but just be nice. Cheers. Sasquatch t|c 02:53, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And calling me psycho probably doesn't help either... Keep it civil, and not personal. :-) Everything cleared up? Sasquatch t|c 02:56, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User:Tawker's block[edit]

You have been temporarily blocked from editing for vandalism of Wikipedia. If you wish to make useful contributions, you may do so after the block expires.

Okay, I unblocked. A LARGE series of misunderstandings. Sasquatch t|c 02:55, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm pretty sure I'm still blocked. Would you mind expalaining what is going on? And Tawker, are you allowed to just block someone even though they didn't do anything? Its like that Bob Dylan song, Hurricane.El benderson 15:37, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Undid the autoblock. But stuff like this does look pretty bad. Just remember what I said above. Don't call people names, don't provoke them and be nice. Sasquatch t|c 18:28, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've had enough[edit]

I've already warned you plenty of times above not to make personal attacks and been as calm and rational as I can be with you yet you respond with this. Fine. 24 hour block for personal attacks. Sasquatch t|c 03:46, 18 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You will get blocked for personal attacks. That, was not a personal attack. Why don't you just hurry on your way and get back to.. oh... editing the encyclopedia. Sasquatch t|c 01:36, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
What is there to get? You aparently don't get my jokes and are intent as labeling all your opponents as communists. You know what, I'm a pinko commie. You happy now? Sasquatch t|c 01:57, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse Me?[edit]

Referring to your message on my talk page. I have never shared a "communist" view in my whole life and I don't know what you're talking about. For your information I'm an editor who has studied and taught Politics and Media - with an interest in Caribbean and Latin American subjects. Please do not leave such messages on my talk page. Especially as I have never encountered you on any page I have been editing on.--Zleitzen 02:12, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Can you believe this?[edit]

They think i'm a sock-puppet of Mr. Treason, that would actually be a compliment! Where is your proof that I am though? How would you figure that i'm the most wanted vandal on Wikipedia, I am requesting Mr. Treason's support, because I have been accused of being him. Mr. Treason, give a virus to Sasquatch please!El benderson 17:18, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My contributions give you know proof that I am Mr. Treason, do you even know the habits of Mr. Treason's edits? This is an SOS going out to any sensible administrator. Obviously, this Sasquatch fellow, has no idea who Mr. Treason is, and is a bumbling idiot that was just handed an adminship.El benderson 17:22, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Mr. Sasquatch, take down this wall of a block you son of a bitch!!!!!El benderson 17:31, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
What does that mean, and who the hell are you?El benderson 01:39, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Wait a second, you couldn't be, is that Mr. Treason? Naw, he wouldn't help me.El benderson 01:41, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Damn it, Sasquatch, talk to me about this, its absurd, why do you think that I might be the great Mr. Treason? Do I at least get a fair trial?!?!?!?!El benderson 02:22, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Mr. Treason, help, they think i'm you!El benderson 02:37, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]


I have been falsely accused of being a sock puppet!El benderson 02:41, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Helpme tags are innapropriate for requesting an unblock, therefore i'm removing it. Thank you. Rockpocket 05:45, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Quite frankly I couldn't care less if you are a sockpuppet or not, between the personal attacks and vandalism the block stands. --pgk(talk) 07:08, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Moving[edit]

Well, it looks like I'll have to pack my bags up and start over. All I want to do is have a normal Wikipedia life. But everytime, whether it is Communist Bishonen, or Sasquatch, I always get blocked just because some jerk thinks I'm someone or other. Listen good Sasquatch, you have made a decent person into a powerful vandal. You havent heard the last of me, I guarantee that. So watch your back, because you made me. Well, its time to start over again, so long! And watch out Sasquatch, because I may hit you at any time. And just to let you know, I'm not Mr. Treason's Sock, you Pinko son of a bitch, I'm Fighter for Freedom's. You should check out his, (my) user page. You will find that I am quite crazy. And it may fill or create holes for you. So, try to relax while I'm still on the loose, because my name will go up in lights, just like Mr. Treason's did. Besides, do you think they'd let me stay in the CVU if I was his sock? I doubt it. Well what did I do with that knife?El benderson 03:01, 22 June 2006 (UTC) signing off, but not for good! I'll be seeing you Sasquatch.[reply]

Issue II - May 2008
From the editor:

Here's Issue II of the project newsletter. We're trying to decide if this is sinking or floating. If you would like to contribute to next month's newsletter please jump right in at the News Desk! Have a great May.

The Ohio Portal

The maintainers of the Ohio Portal are looking to get it to featured status. They would like to ask all project members to help improve it any way they can. What needs to be done most is the supplying of selected articles and images.

Selected Article: Indian Head Rock

There is a eight ton rock in Ohio that was removed from the Ohio River. This rock is known as the Indian Head Rock Dating back to the early 1800’s, this rock was seen sticking out of the Ohio River and used as a navigational mark for barges along the river. The names of citizens from the town of Portsmouth, Ohio are carved into the rock from the late nineteenth a early twentieth centuries. Some of the names were of well known families from Ohio. They would swim out to the rock, have their picture taken with it or simply carve their names into it.
With the advent of the Locks and Dams along the Ohio River, the rock eventually was submerged, but the legend lived on. A gentleman from Ironton, Ohio located the rock after searching a very long time for it, and he and a crew of scuba divers recovered the rock and took it to the shore to be donated to Ohio for historical value.
After hearing the news about the rock being removed, Kentucky introduced legislation against the removal of the rock. They also want the diver who found it to be prosecuted for removing the rock. Kentucky owns the greatest part of the land the river runs on. Even the Army Corp. of Engineers got involved as to how to move the rock without damaging it. Kentucky wants to have it returned to the river.

The WikiProject Ohio Newsletter


Issue III - June 2008
From the editor:

This is the third edition of the WikiProject Ohio newsletter. If you have any project announcements feel free to drop them by the NewsDesk. It's request that you watchlist our talk page; so you can chime in on current discussions. Have a great June!

The Ohio Portal

The maintainers of the Ohio Portal are looking to get it to featured status. They would like to ask all project members to help improve it any way they can. What needs to be done most is the supplying of selected articles and images.

Getting the Project Moving
  • WikiProject Ohio as an entity doesn't have as much action as other state projects. For this reason it has been proposed that the inactive WikiProject Ohio Townships be added as our taskforce. There is a !poll going on at WT:OH and your opinion is essential in the matter!
  • Stepshep has also proposed sending an invite to everyone in Category:Wikipedians in Ohio with an invite to join the project. If you are already a member you would not receive the notice of course. Once again, please note your opinion on the project talkpage.

The Central Avenue Historic District is a nationally recognized historic district located at 201 to 338 Central Avenue in Dayton, Ohio. It consists of late 19th and 20th Century Revival-style houses as well as late Victorian-style houses, which were all originally single-family residences.

On December 16, 1982, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.

Each month a new Ohio related stub is the selected article. If you have a new stub created feel free to nominate it at the NewsDesk.
