Thanks for letting me know about the new page. I notice that the USS Recruit DAB page says there were three ships by this name, but it lists only two. Wasn't there an earlier non-ship also named the Recruit? Do you have any information about her? --MelanieN (talk) 14:41, 29 April 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-04-29T14:41:00.000Z","author":"MelanieN","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-MelanieN-2010-04-29T14:41:00.000Z-USS_Recruit_(TDE-1)_(\"USS_Neversail\")","replies":["c-MelanieN-2010-04-29T14:58:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-04-29T14:41:00.000Z","c-MelanieN-2010-05-01T14:39:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-04-29T14:41:00.000Z","c-MelanieN-2010-05-01T14:42:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-04-29T14:41:00.000Z"]}}-->

According to a comment (invisible comment) at Naval Training Center San Diego, there was an earlier one built in New York. I remember that because it punctured my original claim, for the "Did you know..." item, that the Recruit at NTCSD was the Navy's first "non-ship". --MelanieN (talk) 14:58, 29 April 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-04-29T14:58:00.000Z","author":"MelanieN","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-MelanieN-2010-04-29T14:58:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-04-29T14:41:00.000Z","replies":["c-MelanieN-2010-04-29T15:08:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-04-29T14:58:00.000Z"]}}-->

Actually, now that you've done all this research and found out that she may NOT have actually moved to Coney Island, or that nobody knows what became of her, you might want to update the information at USS Recruit, which currently says:"USS Recruit (1917), a wooden "battleship" built in New York City's Union Square in 1917 as a recruiting tool, moved to Coney Island in 1920." I recently updated the same article to reflect the current status of USS Recruit (TDE-1). --MelanieN (talk) 01:14, 30 April 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-04-30T01:14:00.000Z","author":"MelanieN","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-MelanieN-2010-04-30T01:14:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-04-30T01:06:00.000Z","replies":["c-MelanieN-2010-04-30T01:22:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-04-30T01:14:00.000Z"]}}-->

Oooh, and looky what else I found! It turns out that United States Naval Training Center, Bainbridge also had a "non-ship," the "R.T.S. Commodore, a relatively large ship built on dry land."

Well, that is a challenging assignment, isn't it? I added a trivial amount of information to the new page but was unable to find any new facts - not even when the ship was constructed or whether she still stands. (My hunch is no, since I gather most of the Navy buildings have been demolished.) I dropped a note to the Bainbridge Development Corporation to see if they can tell me anything - at the very least, whether she still exists or not. --MelanieN (talk) 14:43, 30 April 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-04-30T14:43:00.000Z","author":"MelanieN","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-MelanieN-2010-04-30T14:43:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-04-30T01:22:00.000Z","replies":["c-MelanieN-2010-05-04T02:48:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-04-30T14:43:00.000Z"]}}-->

I got this reply:

"Hi Melanie,

The ship you are speaking of the "Never Sail" was dismantled and movedwhen the Navy left the property in the 1970's. Not sure what happened to it but you may be able to find it through this website, http://usntcb.org/

I have attached a picture of it for you, good luck on your research.

The website is no help, but I will put into the article the information that the ship was dismantled. --MelanieN (talk) 02:48, 4 May 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-05-04T02:48:00.000Z","author":"MelanieN","type":"comment","level":7,"id":"c-MelanieN-2010-05-04T02:48:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-04-30T14:43:00.000Z","replies":["c-MelanieN-2010-05-04T03:12:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-05-04T02:48:00.000Z"]}}-->

The Military history WikiProject Newsletter Issue L (April 2010)
From the coordinators It's been a month since the end of the coordinator elections, and I am proud to inform the project that the IX coordinator tranche is doing well. Our new coordinators are rapidly learning the ropes, and the last of the task forces under consideration for merging have been consolidated into a new task force which should increase productivity and improve quality article output. At the moment the coordinators are discussing preliminary plans for an improved version of The Bugle, and are working with editors from the American Civil War task force who are in the process of organizing a new special project relating to that conflict. It is our hope to see these changes implemented in the upcoming month. Lastly, as many of our members are also in school, we extend our best wishes to all who will be taking final exams both this month and next.

Editorial: Milhist's special projects This month we're taking a look at the Military history WikiProject's special projects. At present we have three—Operation Great War Centennial, Operation Majestic Titan, and Operation Normandy—with, as Tom mentions in his introduction, a fourth coming on line as this newsletter goes out. Operation Great War Centennial Officially the longest running of our special projects, this started in December 2008 with the ambitious goal of improving our core articles relating to the First World War by June 2014. As it states on the project's page, "the centenary of the start of World War I ... will doubtless be a mammoth commemoration of one of the most significant wars in history, attracting vast interest from schools, universities, veterans groups and the media. It offers us the chance to showcase what a brilliant resource Wikipedia is". With World War I receiving well over 20,000 page views per day on most days, the truth of these words is evident and the opportunity too good to miss. Operation Great War Centennial has compiled a list of over 300 articles covering topics such as battles, geographical areas, people, armaments, and technology; while some have achieved featured or good status, the majority are at B-Class or below, so there is plenty there for willing editors to get their teeth into. Operation Majestic Titan The home of our much-respected and admired "Battleship Cabal", Operation Majestic Titan started in June 2009 with the aim of creating the "single largest featured topic on Wikipedia, centered around the battleships considered, planned, built, operated, canceled, or otherwise recorded." At time of writing the prolific Majestic Titan team has produced an impressive 33 featured articles, 19 A-Class, 60 good articles, three featured topics and six good topics. According to the project's working list, there are only 427 more articles to go... Operation Normandy Although it first appeared in Milhist's pages in March 2010, this project had been formerly operating out of Cam's userspace as the "Normandy Team" since May 2008, making it a contender for our longest-running unofficial special project. Operation Normandy is aiming to create a Featured Topic on the Second World War Battle of Normandy by the 70th Anniversary of D-Day on 6 June 2014. With nine featured articles so far and 29 more to go, progress has been steady. More help, however, is always welcome. Our fourth special project, American Civil War Sesquicentennial, is in the process of organising and at present lacks a name (see this discussion if you have any suggestions). The project will be looking to improve Wikipedia's coverage of the American Civil War by its sesquicentennial anniversary in 2011. The beginning of a drive is always an exciting time to get involved, so interested editors are strongly encouraged to drop by and sign up. Special projects are a great way of organising a long-term collaboration with a specific end-point in mind, and tend to be more goal-oriented and focused than the general task forces or informal working groups. Joining a special project is also a fantastic way to work alongside like-minded editors with whom you'll undoubtedly develop close working relationships; by your third or fourth FA submission you'll hopefully be operating as part of a well-oiled team. Editor roles are many and varied: content writers, source material providers, image- and map-makers, copy editors, reviewers, MoS gurus, wikignomes, specialists and generalists... you're sure to find a job that suits you and benefits the team. If you have an idea for a special project or are already undertaking a collaboration that you think fits in with the ethos of those above, and you'd like to benefit from Milhist's support and infrastructure, consider dropping the coordinators a note. Personally I've found the synergy and teamwork of contributing to a special project (Operation Normandy in my case) to be one of the most rewarding and enjoyable aspects of my time here. I hope you will too.

Greetings. Recently you proposed for speedy rename several nuclear weapon related categories, which were subsequently renamed.

The CFD speedy policy says, in part:

"Tag category with {{subst:Cfr-speedy|new name}} and list on WP:CFDS."

As far as I can tell, in your contributions history (including deleted contributions for the now deleted old names), you have not tagged any of the categories you recently (last 2 weeks) nominated for speedy rename.

I don't want to be a legalistic policy wonk, but the notifications establish a warning to people working on projects, so that we're aware of the proposals and can see and comment if we have any input. Merely tagging stuff on the CFDS page without notifying anyone else is denying others the reasonable chance to review and comment prior to actions being taken. It's essentially being excessively BOLD by robot proxy.

The particulars of those renames seem acceptable and appropriate to me - I don't object to that - but if this HAD been a case where the project people working in that area objected, you'd now be in hot water for the lack of notification.

Can you PLEASE try to consistently tag appropriately when you make nominations, to avoid this sort of confusion and potential post-facto objections?

Thank you.

On May 8, 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article USS Recruit (TDE-1), which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check ) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

That's interesting! about the plaque saying there were three. Of course some of the information on that plaque is incorrect (such as it having been the Navy's ONLY commissioned ship never to reach water) so it might not be true - but still it's intriguing. I'll keep looking. --MelanieN (talk) 14:43, 8 May 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-05-08T14:43:00.000Z","author":"MelanieN","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-MelanieN-2010-05-08T14:43:00.000Z-DYK_for_USS_Recruit_(TDE-1)","replies":["c-MelanieN-2010-05-08T14:55:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-05-08T14:43:00.000Z"]}}-->

You don't suppose they were talking about the "USS Enterprise" at Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, Illinois, do you? It is purely a building - a barracks in fact - but is named and commissioned like a ship. "These barracks are notable for being the first time the Navy has included the USS initialism in the name of a building, and for the ship-like commissioning ceremonies." I doubt if that's it, because the plaque says "three similar structures." --MelanieN (talk) 14:55, 8 May 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-05-08T14:55:00.000Z","author":"MelanieN","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-MelanieN-2010-05-08T14:55:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-05-08T14:43:00.000Z","replies":["c-MelanieN-2010-05-10T16:18:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-05-08T14:55:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hi Bushranger. I've suggested an alt for this articles DYK (just so you know). With regards to the B-class assessment you've requested, the only thing I think I'd like to see is a clearer ref for the last sentence of the lead. I'm guessing its already covered in the last few refs, but if it could be a tiny bit clearer that would be better. The lead is a bit short - although I appreciate its a short article (but if you could extend it by a sentence or two that would be excellent).

Yup, fanciful but completely fabricated; Myhra even has a photo of Multhopp at the RAE in 1947, in his book Focke Wulf Ta 183 (1999).

Following up, both Kurt Tank and Hans Multhopp were prescient enough to have bargained in early 1945 for future concessions with the Allied forces that were about to overrun the Focke Wulf works. Tank cut a deal with the Russians, received a stipend but reneged and approached the British, who were reluctant to employ such a well-known figure. With the recriminations of hiring a "Nazi" (neither Tank nor Multhopp were rabid Nazis), Tank was approached by agents of Perón and struck a bargain to deliver almost the entire design team to Argentina. Multhopp chose not to go along partly because of the uncertainty of what awaited in Latin America, but mainly he sought a chance to "move out of the shadow" of Tank and thought he could get a better position by negotiating directly with the British. He was sought after by others but the Royal Aircraft Establishment at Farnborough gave him the opportunity to continue his innovative work on high-speed aircraft.

Multhopp's connection to Petter's work is very tenuous as the original RAE studies for high-speed aircraft bear a similiarity in wing planform to the later Petter wing designs used in the P.1 and that has led to the "leap-of-logic" that authors such as David Myhra, author of Focke Wulf Ta 183 (1999) have transposed to Multhopp's work. Myhra was also the originator of the "if it looks like the Ta 183 than the MiG-15 must have been a copy of the Ta 183." This claim has been hotly disputed by many other researchers, but the supposition still has a determined longevity.

Albeit proceeding to the mock-up stage, the CF-103 was essentially a moribund project that some historians have misconstrued as a legitimate contender for production. Instead, it was an example of the Design Office embarking on a marketing campaign without letting the Production and Flight Test section in on the "fun." While the company was fully occupied in resolving serious design flaws in the pre-production CF-100 fighter, the Chief Designer who was brought into the project at an 11th hour, wanted to fundamentally change the entire design. What he had not contended with was the inherent strength and design potential in the original airframe that allowed the aircraft to be dived at supersonic speeds. With the Design Office telling test pilots that the Mach 0.85 speed was not to be exceeded, the Chief Development Test Pilot had already found that the aircraft slipped easily past the sound barrier in a prolonged dive from 33,000 ft. Despite the thick, straight wing, the CF-100 proved to be the first of its type to fly at supersonic speeds, although it could not fly faster than 640 mph in level speed.

In his biography, S/L Janusz Żurakowski revealed that rather than being praised for his "supersonic" feat, he found that he was admonished by the Design Office, whose principals had promoted the CF-103 as an alternate to the CF-100.

Don't bother trying to get ahold of Conway's 1860-1905; it's useless for this ship. All it has is a one-line note: "Duque de Tetuan, a 700t floating battery built at Ferrol in 1874, armed with 1-6.2in and 4-4.7in." It doesn't even have it's own heading, it's stuck in a note along with the monitor Puigcerda towards the end of the "Armoured Ships" section.

I found that reference about the battle off Cartegena; however, it conflicts with the other references I can find. I think the ship referred to there is actually the "other"/older Tetuán, the armoured frigate that preceded DdT. As for the Admirals...ouch.

I wondered, given that the battle took place the same year the ship was commissioned.

Wow, that's interesting! Good sleuthing! I'll see if I can find anything about those two ships, the Marlinspike and the Bluejet. Hmmm, so that sould make the historical placque inaccurate; it says Recruit was one of three, but counting Commodore there would now be four. You found two references about the one at Orlando so you can probably create something about that - if the Wikifolks would accept those as "reliable sources". I do wonder about the accuracy of the stuff reported secondhand from Ryan - himself a local San Diego travel guy rather than a military historian. For example he says the ships were "built after the Second World War," but according to this, the Orlando Naval Training Center wasn't even established until the early 1960s; prior to that it was an Army air station. As for more informaiton about the Bluejet, chances are there are some documents, somewhere in the City of Orlando archives, that establish "existing conditions" when they took over the base, and it might include an inventory of what was there. I'll explore that angle. --MelanieN (talk) 16:53, 16 May 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-05-16T16:53:00.000Z","author":"MelanieN","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-MelanieN-2010-05-16T16:53:00.000Z-More_landships?","replies":["c-MelanieN-2010-05-16T16:59:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-05-16T16:53:00.000Z"]}}-->

Here's a bigger and possibly more rewarding project for you: there is no Wikipedia page about Naval Training Center Orlando, 1968 - 1999. There are just a few sentences about NTC Orlando at the page Orlando Executive Airport. For that matter there is also no page about Orlando Army Air Base/Orlando Air Force Base. Orlando Army Air Base redirects to Orlando Executive Airport. There is a page about McCoy Air Force Base which became Orlando International Airport. I don't think McCoy was the same as Orlando Army Air Base but I could be wrong. --MelanieN (talk) 17:22, 16 May 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-05-16T17:22:00.000Z","author":"MelanieN","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-MelanieN-2010-05-16T17:22:00.000Z-MelanieN-2010-05-16T16:59:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I've been involved today in reviewing this DYK nomination for D. Iacobescu. The article's pretty good but there are technical problems with the hook. However, when trying to communicate with the author I've had nothing but grief, abuse, and page-long diatribes. I'm withdrawing from the nom because it's not worth the hassle but it might be something that could easily be solved by the intervention of a neutral third party, especially as in principle the article is suitable for DYK, it's just a hook issue.

And I guess I will never get apologies for the misrepresentation above and throughout these discussions... Bushranger, in the future, please do me the favor of not acting on DustFormsWords' emotions. Particularly when s/he claims "grief, abuse and page-long diatribes" can be found in messages s/he stated she did not even read. Incidentally, the issues were subtle, the explanation needed to be thorough - which prevented neither of you from claiming that there were still issues with the hook (and not even the same issues). I deserve at least the benefit of the doubt, as a long-time editor of good standing, and as one who just happened to be right in this case.

Thank you, I appreciate that. Sorry for revisiting the issue, but the above exchange looked to me like the kind of dialogue that would lead to a label placed on me for no reason at all (in what was already a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation for me). I tend to avoid disputes myself, but I looked on the DYK objections as a matter of principle - a subtle principle no less: questionable requests for sources, purely guided by a reader's subjectivity or a literalist interpretation of DYK requirements, have dramatic consequences on an article's coherence.

I see you asked too about "battle in Cartagena"; in this battle (Combate naval de Portmán), fighted the old armoured frigate Tetuán with other 2 armoured frigates and 1 paddle steam (cantonalist squadron), against 1 armoured frigate, 3 screew wooden frigate, 2 paddle steam, and 2 screw schooner (governmental squadron): Combate naval de Portmán.

command in the cantonalist squadron, was the general Juan Contreras y San Román ; command in the governmental squadron, was the rear admiral Miguel Lobo y Malagamba

Hello there! I came across F+W C-3605 at DYK and have subsequently done a bit of work on the article lead. It seemed strange to me that it was a couple of lines (and 34 words) before I found out that this article is about an aircraft! I've re-written the lead so that a reader finds out what they are reading about as soon as possible (which I think is good encyclopedic practice). As you have been the only previous contributor so far I thought I would let you know so you can check over the changes and tweak/alter as necessary. Any problems let me know. Thanks!

Well, first the references need some work - there's three sources mentioned in the inline citations, but only one in the bibliography? After that, I'd suggest finding a way to expand the 'History' section - background on the design is reasonable, I think, especially as it's a deritive of the VV-class design (and thus a lot of design stuff would/will be in the class article), but the history seems a little short (what causes was the steel needed for that led to her planned scrapping befor the bombers got her? Panzers? Aircraft? Was there any discussion of using her hulk for something other than razor blades after the war?

You are correct that the template is technically not a stub template (it is closer to {{Expand section}}) and it does not affect the measurement of readable prose. That being said, it still presents a problem for DYK as it gives the appearance that the article is missing significant information in violation of additional rule D6. Given the choice between removing the template or flagging the DYK nomination, I find it is friendlier to make the minor correction needed to allow a nomination to go forward. --Allen3 ^talk 19:43, 25 May 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-05-25T19:43:00.000Z","author":"Allen3","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Allen3-2010-05-25T19:43:00.000Z-Re:_Stubs_on_aircraft_articles","replies":[]}}-->

Well, sort of. I had the page I was building in userspace for the Saab 18, but since that page already existed, when I finished that project I had to edit the existing page to include the new stuff, while the userspace page was blanked. Castore was the next project, and when that was done it was moved to become the new page, which meant that userspace's page history from previous projects went along for the ride... - The Bushranger _{Return fire}^{Flank speed} 19:53, 29 May 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-05-29T19:53:00.000Z","author":"The Bushranger","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-The_Bushranger-2010-05-29T19:53:00.000Z-Buggie111-2010-05-29T18:58:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->
