Welcome to the Military history WikiProject!

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:

• Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
• The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can watchlist it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WPMILHIST Announcements}} there.
• Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
• The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, and project-wide collaboration.
• We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
• We've developed a variety of guidelines for article structure and content, template use, categorization, and other issues that you may find useful.

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 17:30, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

For you work on the Law Enforcement in Europe template! Dep. Garcia ( Talk + | Help Desk | Complaints ) 20:10, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

I have a feeling that if you carry on like this you will need to create an awards subpage! :-) Dep. Garcia ( Talk + | Help Desk | Complaints ) 20:21, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Cops is well good, and if you like Reno 911 you should check out my videos i made on youtube (short ones) you can find the links on my userpage under the "Important information about me " box. Let me know what you think :-) Dep. Garcia ( Talk + | Help Desk | Complaints ) 20:32, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Yea i work for Greater Manchester Police as a police officer and when that was filmed I was a firearms officer, and was almost in that show but i was cut out for security reasons, since that i have gone back to walking the beat (in my panda car). Im glad you enjoyed them! Dep. Garcia ( Talk + | Help Desk | Complaints ) 20:52, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

I am a united fan, Im usually on duty when ever there is a match on at old trafford. Dep. Garcia ( Talk + | Help Desk | Complaints ) 14:44, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

RE:Please

If you want to create an article worth noticing please read WP:POLICY. As for my offer to correct your mistakes, please read WP:CITE and WP:STUB. Have a good reading and a nice day.--Lokyz 01:09, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Your mistakes: a. badly formated reference, b. bad WP:LEAD c. not clear what the article is about, read this - WP:STUB#Ideal stub article--Lokyz 07:38, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

I have read both comments on both yours and Lokyz talk page. Robbskey you have handled it very well, as for Lokyz when you asked him to help, he gave policy guildlines and notices, which is sign of an insecure personality. Any more problems feel free to tell me or tell us on the main projects talk page. Regards Dep. Garcia ( Talk + | Help Desk | Complaints ) 14:48, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your comments Dep. Garcia, but I believe that commenting my personality is kinda uncivil. If you'd ask me why i did I did cite policies, I would have told you, that I did it because there are tips and guidelines how to improve quality of this sub-substub, like for example a tip on citing web using Wp:citeweb or rephrasing lead to something like Law enforcement structure in Lithuania or Lithuanian Law enforcement system whatewer suits you best. Current title is kind of quirky and does not exactly reflect the research subject. Anyway these are only friendly suggestions, i will not touch it futhermore, because of your quite harsh reactions.

I've changed tag to more appropriate. After you finish expanding the article you may remove it yourself. These tags are often used to attract help form other contributors, and is not a punishment or something bad - you may find more information about it here Template_talk:Expand. Have a good day.--Lokyz 15:05, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Gratefully appreciated, your still welcome to expand the article, Lokyz Dep. Garcia ( Talk + | Help Desk | Complaints ) 16:42, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

PS. The reason is because Lokyz is a member of Wikipedia:WikiProject Lithuania. I hope this have been resolved and its all nice and tidy now! Dep. Garcia ( Talk + | Help Desk | Complaints ) 16:49, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Infobox Drive for the Firearms Wikiproject

Hello Robbskey. The Firearms Wikiproject is having an infobox drive. The purpose of this is to ensure that most (if not all) of the articles within our scope have the relevant infoboxes. The start date will be May 28^th. If you choose to participate, go to our project page and pick an article under the To-do list's Infobox section or look for firearm articles that need an infobox. Before you start editing an article, please cross it out on the list so that we don't have editor's work clashing. The drive will last for five days. If you are interested, please RSVP to LWF. Thank you, the Firearms Wikiproject. --Seed 2.0 09:22, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of American Polygraph_Association

I've nominated American Polygraph_Association, an article you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that American Polygraph_Association satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion; I have explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/American Polygraph_Association and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of American Polygraph_Association during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. ~ Wikihermit 21:43, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
