Coalition casualties

Look at the discussion page of the article carefully, it seems it was talked about at length and it was decided that only Coalition deaths in or around Afghanistan will be counted there. Not all Coalition fatalities from the War on terror. And I agree with that. The 711 deaths you are inserting are already in the above paragraph. Gonna quote it for ya: With 711 Operation Enduring Freedom and ISAF deaths, 2010 was the deadliest year for foreign military troops since the U.S. invasion in 2001, continuing the trend that has occurred every year since 2003. If you really want to present the number of deaths for 2012 I will insert it, but it should go in the lead-in paragraphs. MikeyTMNT (talk) 13:23, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Oh yeah, forgot about your question on the clarification of OEF casualities are only relevant. I misspoke, my mistake. Didn't want it to seem that only OEF fatalities are relevant. ISAF fatalities are relevant also. I only said OEF because the icasualties.org site is collectively calling both OEF and ISAF dead just OEF. Both are counted in the article, just those that died in separate OEF operations (Africa, Philippines, etc) are not counted. Bye! MikeyTMNT (talk) 15:34, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Hermes, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Transition (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Re. Laxative

Hello, please read WP:PRESERVE, if you have not already. Otherwise I cannot criticize this edit according to WP policy, but I still feel it is unconstructive. Finding the needed sources may have lead to the section being retained. It seemed to add useful info to the article imo. Lesion (talk) 16:55, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:53, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
