February 2020[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Joint Chiefs of Staff, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Job titles are lowercase except in specific circumstances. See MOS:JOBTITLES or discuss on a talk page, please.Eyer (If you reply, add {{reply to|Eyer}} to your message to let me know.) 12:51, 3 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

In the manual of style, under the "Capital letters" section, it clearly states that, "Standard or commonly used names of an office are treated as proper names", and proceeds to list examples such as "Prime Minister of Great Britain". In keeping with this style, as my edits were to standard office titles and not general ones (including Chairman, Vice Chairman, Secretary of Defense, and President, all referring to standard US offices), I capitalized these office titles. Keeping these titles lowercase in reference to "Job Titles" is incorrect due to the non-general nature of the offices. Seeing as how these are US-sanctioned titles established in the US Code, they should be capitalized. To keep them lowercase is incorrect, unprofessional in it's "look", and misrepresentative of the importance of each office, among other reasons.

USAFA Cadet Wing[edit]

Okay I can definitely understand removing the squadron sayings for a lack or verifiability but if you aren't going to take my word as a cadet, then I wouldn't include squadron sayings at all (i.e. squadron 2 and squadron 5 which also have unreferenced squadron sayings.)

Additionally, you removed my edits on the Class Exemplar section, which I didn't appreciate since I literally cited the reference where those edits came from (which is the same reference used for about 15 other exemplars). I appreciate your edits on the squadron sayings, but it seems to me that you just erased all of my edits without checking all of them.

  • Crymson, you know what? You're right. I didn't check all 32 edits to find the one edit out of that mass change that had a primary source. I apologize. If you want to restore that information, I have no objection. I'm sure you'll be more careful of the Core Content Policies in the future. Thanks and I hope that helps.
