Vandalism?
While I applaud your conversion of the footnotes here, you should have paid more attention to the content of the comments attached in the footnotes. It's not all vandalism. I know. I put it in for a reason, which, had you actually bothered to read it, you might have seen. Some, I admit, was a bit...funky, but none vandalism. I reverted. Feel free to fix the footnote style.

- Some of the comments, maybe not, some were necessary. It bugged me you baldly called them all vandalism. If you find some really offensive (esthetically), feel free to delete them. Just read them, first. Trekphiler (talk) 00:55, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- I invite you to consider the context. The Anheuser-Busch, for instance, was produced by the beer company. If it's not abundantly clear it's a serious remark (& it should be), or if you are so offended by a touch of humor (Mork & The Chicken), take it out. I'll happily fix those few, if any.

- Noted. I've gotten a bit cranky after being on awhile, too. Something about this place must do that... =] And it's all too easy to suspect vandalism, considering how damn much there is. I've been wrongly acused before, so maybe I'm touchy. BTW, while you're in there, can I ask you to look at linking to "master pages" where there's repetition? (I just don't have the patience to do it, after spending, what, four days putting in the Clymer material... Maybe later.) Ciao. Trekphiler (talk) 01:18, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Colton Pitonyak
Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Colton Pitonyak, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Aerial work platforms
I saw your note on the talk page of the Technology wikiproject. You might like to take a look at the Haulotte Group article. Feel free to improve it if you can. Mjroots (talk) 20:39, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
Looks great. I'll have to dig around for additional sources. I'd look at press accounts, especially Senegalese and French publications. For pre-sinking, I can't think where to look. Old travel guides or local press at launch date. Best of luck, T L Miles (talk) 21:55, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
