Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Accelerated Processing Unit has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://amdevice.blogspot.com/2006/12/amd-accelerated-processing-unit.html (matching the regex rule \bblog(?:cu|fa|harbor|mybrain|post|savy|spot|townhall)?\.com\b). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, or similar site, then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 21:47, 6 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Draft:PR-15 Ragun concern

edit

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:PR-15 Ragun, a page you created, has not been edited in 6 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:38, 9 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:PR-15 Ragun

edit
 

Hello 193.33.125.242. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "PR-15 Ragun".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Draft:PR-15 Ragun}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. --L235 (t / c / ping in reply) 16:50, 20 March 2015 (UTC)Reply


Modular Handgun System

edit

The references for the text do not mention 5.7x28mm specifically. It does mention the others listed. Just because it says hollow point does not mean 5.7mm. The text is explaining other options, but inserting any other round does not work. America789 (talk) 23:11, 13 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Handgun competitors

edit

There is a lot of handguns listed, but few have actually been CONFIRMED to have been entered.

Lets have less speculation and more verifiable facts, please. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.182.189.67 (talk) 07:27, 16 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Your addition to Textron AirLand Scorpion has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license.

  Hello, I'm BilCat. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Alenia Aermacchi, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Eurofighter Typhoon into Dassault Rafale. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:44, 6 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon variants, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Also, improper/excess bold formatting. -Finlayson (talk) 01:55, 26 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Sources

edit

Hey! First off, thank you for your many contributions. In a recent edit of yours I noticed you added the US SOCOM to the list of operators for the SIG MCX, this is accurate and I thank you for this edit, but it lacked a source. I added a source now, but for future reference: operators require sources to be valid. I know the problem is widespread but if we all work together and add the source when we come across a news item, it can be fixed. Thank you in advance.
