Thanks

I didn't even think to check [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:CaptainAhab1841#c-Swatjester-20250612025900-ZLEA-20250611210400 the others]. - ZLEA T\C 03:39, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

Boonie hat

Information already in source:

[https://www.usamm.com/blogs/news/the-history-of-boonie-hats-in-the-u-s-military#:~:text=During%20the%20Vietnam%20War%2C%20the,needed%20protection%20from%20the%20sun. The History Of Boonie Hats In The U.S. Military – USAMM] 45.232.105.68 (talk) 19:10, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

::First of all, blogs are not considered reliable sources. Second of all, no, that source does not accurately support the edit you're making. Nothing in the USAMM source says that it is comparable to a bucket hat -- that phrase is nowhere to be found in the article. Additionally, you were repeatedly warned about the need to discuss and gain consensus for your edits. You've chosen not to do so, and to engage in a disruptive edit war as a result. That's unacceptable behavior here. SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 19:12, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

Fort Gordon

Ensuring you are aware of this https://www.wrdw.com/2025/06/11/speedy-switch-local-army-post-becomes-fort-gordon-again/

so that you might stop undoing proper edits in reference to Fort Gordon. 185.98.168.87 (talk) 20:16, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

:Thanks for this; this is sufficient for us to update the article, and I've done so to reflect that. SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 20:32, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

Fifth-generation fighter § Sweden

Hi, you wrote: {{tqbm|Come on, this absolutely did not need a {{tlf|cn}} tag, with the lead sentence of the linked article having multiple references directly addressing this point.}}

Since you're addressing me, I wanted to respond.

I'm aware that the linked article is referenced, in fact I edited it myself, but the first source doesn't mention "Flygsystem" or "Saab" (though it's in French and I'm not fluent so I'm not sure if there are different words for them), and the second source is in Swedish, which I don't speak. So rather than blindly copying and having the possibility of spreading misinformation, I added a {{tlf|cn}} tag. I'm not familiar with the subject so I didn't pursue it further. Did you read the sources yourself? If not, it might need to be tagged {{tl|Verify source}}.

:{{yo|W.andrea}} I did, though I don't speak French natively; I am somewhat familiar with the subject though (as much as any interested observer outside the Swedish defense establishment could be). Part of the issue with sourcing is that the name has changed a few times from Flygsystem 2000, to 2020, to 2025 now. [https://www.airforce-technology.com/features/sweden-stands-as-outlier-of-the-newly-merged-nordic-air-force/ Here's a better source] (could be dropped into both articles) that explicitly states it as fifth-generation. I do regret the frustration that I expressed though, that was unnecessary and I apologize for that. SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 17:03, 15 June 2025 (UTC)

::No worries, I totally understand :) Thanks — W.andrea (talk) 17:17, 15 June 2025 (UTC)

Brahmos page disruption

This is to bring to your notice that an user @Manrehmando has been deleting referenced parts of Brahmos missile page without citing sources. AbhijnanGhosh87 (talk) 07:00, 20 June 2025 (UTC)

:Why is this being brought to my notice? It looks like they made a single edit, in which their edit summary indicates they were improving the source due to bias issues. Looking at the substance of the edit, it looks like they replaced some not-so-great quality Indian sources with a single Washington Post source, attributed something as a claim, and removed a blatant example of editorializing in wikivoice. In short, it's not clear to me what the problem here is other than that you disagree; and further I don't see any attempt from you to engage in discussion with them on their user talk page or the article talk page. I'd suggest you start there. SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 17:07, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
