Killology Work[edit]

Lt.Col Rich, Thank you for he positive words and links, I would greatly appreciate your overwatch on the article to make sure I do not put it in a FUBAR sate. I will be doing edits in my sandbox before updating so you can also look there for a preview of things to come. Thank you for your service, and I know you can be a very valuable resource for myself whilst editing this article. Very Respectfully. Ddmassett (talk) 15:06, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Where is your sandbox? You might post the {{userdraft}} template at the top. The R in FUBAR will not be a factor. Everything on WP can be repaired. Enjoy. – S. Rich (talk) 16:30, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Say, Ddmassett, in your remarks to fellow editors, you might avoid gender-specific salutations such as "gentlemen". Many, many WP editors are women. Addressing the community as "fellow editors" or "Wikipedians" will work well. – S. Rich (talk) 19:24, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
