I think you're correct, BUT the U.S. Congress hasn't declared war since WWII. That means the U.S. isn't constitutionally engaged in a "War" in Afghanistan.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

Hiyas Kenfo,

The page you just created landed in the article space, and i believe it wasn't intended to go there. I moved the page to the above userpage so you can easily copy it's content somewhere else. Once you no longer need the userpage i created just send me a message or just place a WP:CSD template on it to have it removed altogether.

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment.

Hi

[edit]

I am sorry if I put something in the wrong place (Afghanistan War)....are you saying I put it into the article itself? I thought I was posting to the discussion area. If so, sorry and glad you got it quickly.

At issue is some guy calling legitimate, factual questioning of an article "disruptive" and deleting it w/o discussion/notice. This has not happened before, and I am infuriated. I see a lot of people here who do not understand the differences among fact, fiction and opinion, and people who think theirs is the only viewpoint. If there is a problem with something I wrote, I should be first notified. I don't know how to talk directly to this person. I will spend some time and figure it out. Thanks for your time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kenfo 0 (talkcontribs) 23:02, 28 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hiyas there Kenfo,
No, the content wasn't saved in the article itself, though it would have been a two-second job to correct it if that had done. What i meant was that you create a new article in the "Article Space". The Article Space is there area where content-based articles are saved. On a similar note talk: pages are called the talk space, and the wp: article's are project or wikipedia space.
As for the issue, i think this is simply a misunderstanding. The deleted entry logs you included in your post are actually not related to any content you posted. What happened there is that an administrator (Mentifisto) revdelled two edits to the Afghanistan War because the user that made them had an offensive username. The watchlist shows any edits made to an article, so if another editor changes something, you will get notified as well. What i think you are referring to, are the sections you created on the discussion page? If that is the case they have not been removed, but rather they have been archived. This happens automatically on some pages to make sure that talk pages don't get unreasonably long. On the talk page in question sections older then 3 months are automatically archived - your comments can still be found in the archive of the page.
As for contacting Mentifisto directly, you can do this the same way you just contacted me. By posting a note on their talk pages you will almost certainly grab their attention. Most times it is best to contact an editor first before starting any more "formal" process such as an RFC on conduct - After all, it may just have been a misunderstanding :) Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 09:07, 29 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
