Just some things I saw when clicking on RecentChanges:
- wich s.b. which
- shogun s.b. shotgun
- coburg,ontario needs capitals like a couple lines down
- reciever s.b. receiver
- aproxamently s.b. approximately
- powerfull s.b. powerful
- "barrel wa full choke" s.b. "barrel was full choke"
There's more than one of the first one, so you might check for repeats. One of the reasons I like Firefox browser is because I can enable a spell-checker in the browser. Just makes it easier. Maybe you can find a spell-checker for your browser? 24.28.17.231 (talk) 04:10, 28 April 2012 (UTC) (a weird guy)
References
[edit]You have written a fairly extensive article about .38 rimfire ammunition (I took the liberty of moving the page to a more appropriate title), but you haven't cited any sources. Information on Wikipedia must be verifiable; just writing what you know without any references to a reliable source is not acceptable. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 17:19, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
Talking in an article
[edit]Regarding this edit, please do not add commentary to articles such as "to whom it may concern - all info in this article is correct". Articles should contain only article content. If you need to comment on the content, that's what the article talk page is for. In this case, your assertion that "all info is correct" is a bit specious, given that the only reference you have provided is to some collector's defunct page. (Please refer to Wikipedia's guidelines on reliable sources.) WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 19:42, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

[edit]
Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, Phil Harris (fisherman). While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 01:40, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
Serious concenrs
[edit]Hi M-134, I just reverted you again at Great Lake Warriors, because the information you added was unsourced. And, looking at your talk page here, I see that quite a number of other editors have brought the matter to your attention on other articles. I'm concerned that you may simply not be understanding how Wikipedia works. You can't just add information to articles that you believe is true. Wikipedia requires that information be verified by reliable sources. Could you please read through those two links to see if you can understand our rules? If you keep adding unsourced information, I may have to block you to prevent disruption to the encyclopedia. Qwyrxian (talk) 00:16, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

File permission problem with File:Tug Brompton Caribou, a old logging tug from a time-gone-by. photo belongs to Mr. Robert B. Farrow.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:Tug Brompton Caribou, a old logging tug from a time-gone-by. photo belongs to Mr. Robert B. Farrow.jpg, which you've attributed to Robert B. Farrow. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.
If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:18, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
I talked to rob about it, he said he will be sending a email confirming that he approved it.
