DYK for Battle of Kursk

On 24 July 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Battle of Kursk, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that on 5 July 1943, Nazi Germany launched its final major offensive against the Soviet Union in the Battle of Kursk? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Battle of Kursk. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Thanks for your help with the project Victuallers (talk) 01:51, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

Rollback

I have granted the "rollbacker" permission to your account. After a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, contact me and I will remove it. Good luck and thanks. – Gilliam (talk) 23:17, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

Precious

battle for credible, respected information
Thank you, user with the punny name who wants refreshingly no less than "to improve Wikipedia's much-maligned reputation, and transform it into a credible, respected source of research and news information", for quality articles such as Battle of Kursk and Operation Barbarossa, for patrolling new content and copy-editing, for sharing the Million award - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

No Gun Ri Massacre

I have started to look at the article No Gun Ri Massacre and the edit history I notice that you made this edit at 16:22, 29 July 2015 with the comment "I doubt anyone will have a copy of that particular paper on hand". Did you try a Google search for the heading "Captured North Korean document describes mass killings by U.S. troops"? I did and it seems that the paper is archived online:

My mistake I was confused by your edit history comment! I thought you were deleting it not adding it.-- PBS (talk) 16:25, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

Totally fine. As this is the single most confusing incident I've ever gotten involved in, I've made plenty of mistakes myself. GAB^Hello! 16:33, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

At a later date, I do plan to go back and add URLs for convenience. GAB^Hello! 16:34, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
