November 2018 edit

As we all know, Abrams relinquished command of FORSCOM in October and took command of USFK on November 8, 2018. Although referenced, Wolfchild deletes my constructive edits just because. I have no idea why. He calls them "test edits", which they are not. Is this anything personal? 2001:7E8:D4A8:9601:ACF6:A149:5CA:BA38 (talk) 18:39, 9 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Your comments here are, to put it politely, disingenuous. "His relinquish[ing] command of FORSCOM" is not all you were adding or changing with your edits. You made a series of edits that can only be described as "test edits" You were saving changes before checking them with the preview function, you were trying to add or change markup that you clearly are not familiar with, you were trying to add or change templates that you clearly are not familiar with, and doing so in a location that shows you are clearly not familiar with page layouts. All of this is documented in the page history. Some changes are based solely on preference, and once they're contested, then per WP:BRD, you come to the talk page and discuss them, you don't continually try to re-add them with repeated reverts. You are using multiple IP addresses, even though they are static IPs, which is generally not permitted. If that was not intentional, ok, but you can also avoid that by creating an account.
His transition between commands is now well documented and sourced. What is it that you would like to add to the text, either in the lead section or the "Commands" section, regarding that? Other than that, what are you trying to accomplish with that template you keep adding below the "References" section? And what other changes are looking to make? I clearly said in my edit summaries (more than once) that if you would go to the talk page, you would receive help. I am certainly willing to help you, but you need to drop the combative attitude. (And accusations that this is "personal"...? wtf? You're an anonymous IP user, that afaik I've never interacted with, so that comment is beyond ridiculous). Calm down, focus on WP:edits not editors, and just state what it is you are trying to do. - wolf 04:18, 10 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Abrams Korean name edit

Gen. Abrams received a Korean name at a farewell event. Per his verified Twitter account, it's this: 우병수. Should this be added to the lead section of the article? If not, it should be added to the appropriate section. I'll try fishing for more sources. SuperWIKI (talk) 15:08, 8 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Thewolfchild: No response to this query so far, so thought I'd ask you. SuperWIKI (talk) 18:21, 29 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
@SuperWIKI: Sure, if it's sourced, go for it. I'd add it to the section about his time as CO of USFK. (imho) - wolf 18:29, 29 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

GENERAL ABRAMS CURRENT DEPLOYMENT edit

General Robert B. Abrams got recalled to active service soon after retiring. He was assigned to duty in Afghanistan, some months before the US exit from that country. A hasty egress from Afghanistan was necessary, due to an unsatisfactory route to Kabul.

He is currently in command of some number of US warfighters, which are assigned to some location in Pakistan, along the border with Afghanistan. PulcherPrimus (talk) 03:53, 26 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

I have a picture. Don't know how to add it. PulcherPrimus (talk) 04:05, 26 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
