Hansen 1995

[edit]

There are two parts of what seems to be a series of books by Chuck Hansen in the references which have the same publishing year but no marking as a or b and share the same ISBN and OCLC numbers. Is this a mistake and if not, i.e. they have the same numbers, why are there two entries for which would have to be but one? --Bomzibar (talk) 15:55, 5 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No, there are two separate entries. There are seven books in all. They were all published together. The series has an ISBN (978-0-9791915-0-3), and so do the individual volumes. They share the same OCLC. I set the references up so that they are 1995a and 1995b in the Notes but if you click on them they take you to the correct volume in the references. I've just edited the article to set the ISBNs to those of the individual volumes. Are you thinking of translating the articles in German? Hawkeye7 (talk) 22:00, 5 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the clarification and yes, I plan to translate it and came through this issue as I started to transcribe the references into the preferred de:Wiki style. --Bomzibar (talk) 09:13, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Another question: Is 2325-6990 the correct ISSN for Military Affairs? I found two versions in Worldcat and cant check it on JSTOR without an account. --Bomzibar (talk) 09:26, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The correct ISSN is 0026-3931. I do have a JSTOR account, but it's not unlimited. I've added ISSNs to the two journals in the references. Hawkeye7 (talk) 14:20, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you again. If you're interested in the progress, my working station for translation can be found over here. --Bomzibar (talk) 18:08, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In the introduction it is said, that the project was a joint organization of all three armed services. I guess Army, Navy and Air Force are meant but what about Marine Corps and Coast Guard which are also services of the armed forces? If they werent included it should be said which services were staffed in the project. --Bomzibar (talk) 18:43, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It is what is meant. I've made it explicit. The Coast Guard is not part of the Department of Defense, and the Marine Corps was represented by the Navy. Hawkeye7 (talk) 20:53, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Why is there someone adding explicit photos to the article over and over again? Falcongrav (talk) 10:18, 1 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
