A beer for you![edit]

Welcome to the WikiProject Croatia! I hope you enjoy contributing to the project. Should you need any assistance or information, I'd be glad to lend a hand if at all possible. Cheers! Tomobe03 (talk) 23:52, 15 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Judging from your recent contributions in the area of navy and air force topics, I think you might be interested in joining the Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history as well. It is one of the most active wiki projects around with more than 1,200 active participants who might offer assistance, peer reviews and more. Cheers.--Tomobe03 (talk) 12:22, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to MILHIST[edit]

Hello and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.

A few features that you might find helpful:

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask any of the project coordinators or any other experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome, and we are looking forward to seeing you around! Anotherclown (talk) 20:51, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Velebit and Šibenik[edit]

Hi! I just wanted to let you know I appreciate your great contribution on Šibenik (RTOP-21) and Velebit (P-01) articles. I added article ratings, based on WP Military history criteria, but please do not be put off by the "Start" rating which is the product of B1 and B2 criteria not being met - both are relatively straightforward to achieve. The B1 pertains to referencing, and it requires that all claims in the article be referenced to reliable sources, while the B2 pertains to coverage of the article (also its accuracy, but that's not the issue here). What's missing in terms of the B2 criterion is a short section on vessel characteristics (basically covering whatever's presented in the infobox) and construction/launching. Once again, nice work!--Tomobe03 (talk) 11:12, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the comments. I have to disagree on one point though - both Šibenik and Velebit have potential to become Good Articles at least, if not better, regardless of the navy size or significance. If, say Šibenik article, contained all relevant information no matter how little is available, it would meet the B2 criterion. For further info on that see WP:CL-RULE which clearly says the topic need not be "grand" to have a good article. For an example of a recently promoted GA on a warship, see SMS Bussard. If you decide to take any of the HRM ship articles to GA nominations, I'd be glad to help. I have a bit of experience in the field, having successfully GA nominated HMS Aldenham (L22).--Tomobe03 (talk) 15:02, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Just dropping by...[edit]

...to say these navy-related articles were nice. GregorB (talk) 20:36, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Soko J-21 Jastreb[edit]

No problem. I can't remember exactly why i did the moves / edits, but seem to remember that the designations were not consistent so I had to choose one or the other. J-21 is probably best, and the article seems better for it. Thanks --Petebutt (talk) 18:55, 6 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Velebit sub[edit]

Hi! I had another look at the Velebit submarine article and I think it's now missing just a couple of refs. There are two sources which seem to be subpar - paluba.info and paraćin site - which are quite fine for External Links but I'm not so sure about refs.

Furthermore, I stumbled on this source identifying the sub as ex-Soča P-914 rather than ex-Zeta as well as potentially offering info capable of replacing at least a some of the two (in my opinion at least) subpar sources as backing up refs. I also found this article from year 2000 musing on possible (now apparently abandoned) construction of additional sister ships. For what it's worth, the "Soča rather than Zeta" claim is supported by this and this. Since at least 2012 P-913 Zeta is in Pivka, Slovenia (photo included) as seen here.

I believe the two sources I pointed out (and missing refs) would prevent it from reaching GA class, but otherwise it's just great! Cheers--Tomobe03 (talk) 00:16, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If reliable sources identify the sub variously, the "controversy" should be noted in the article itself - that's no major problem at any rate. The problem, if any, with the two sources is that a GA reviewer is more than likely to see those as WP:SELFPUBLISH and dismiss them as unacceptable according to that policy. I don't think authors of the two sites had any reason to misrepresent technical data, but I'm quite sure all those technical data may be found elsewhere - and am willing to help locate such sources if needed. For instance the book identifying the Velebit as ex-Soča also provides some technical details on the vessel.--Tomobe03 (talk) 13:30, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Is the 6-day endurance specific to Velebit or does it apply to Una-class in general?--Tomobe03 (talk) 14:54, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Alright then. I'd include the specs listed in the infobox (length, displacements, etc), armaments, crew size etc. in the Design and construction section as well and remove refs from the infobox then.--Tomobe03 (talk) 15:05, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
this source, p.145 indicates 7-day endurance, submerged range of 135 nautical miles (250 kilometres; 155 miles) at 3 knots (5.6 kilometres per hour; 3.5 miles per hour) and range while using a snorkel of 500 nmi at 8 kts. This info may be useful to include too.--Tomobe03 (talk) 15:09, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The same source also indicates that Velebit had STN-Atlas Elektronik PP-10 active and PSU-1-2 passive sonar.--Tomobe03 (talk) 15:14, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
...and a five-bladed propeller delivering 54 shaft horsepower (40 kilowatts) (I'm not sure what this specifically means though).--Tomobe03 (talk) 15:19, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
One unrelated thing: the article currently employs a mix of DMY and MDY date formats (the former mostly in references). Select one and apply it consistently.--Tomobe03 (talk) 15:26, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
If there are conflicting information, obviously the manufacturer will likely have more accurate data. In case of the sonar, I don't see a problem here. It appears the vessel was completed without one, yet at some point it acquired it. Also bear in mind that the arms embargo was not really enforced since 1994. It would be quite unlikely to acquire a submarine then, but a sonar would be a different thing altogether. Since a reliable source reports it and no other reliable source contradicts existence of the sonar except at the time Velebit was completed (i.e. in 1996) it is not unreasonable to include it in the article. Four vs six mines issue is different though since a reliable source (BI) contradicts other info and I assume it is reasonable that the manufacturer has accurate information.--Tomobe03 (talk) 16:01, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Let's forget about the above, and concentrate on the BI then: the HRBI source notes range, crew, maximum surface/submerged speed - so those should be added to the article (prose and infobox), and info already included in the infobox should be added to the prose - displacement(s), length, draft, beam etc. - and references moved from the infobox to the body prose (per MOS:INFOBOX).--Tomobe03 (talk) 16:06, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
In order to address sonar/no sonar material, I'd add a sentence following the one already in the prose saying Velebit was completed without a sonar. I suggest it read "According to the 2007 edition of The Naval Institute Guide to Combat Fleets of the World, Velebit was fitted with STN-Atlas Elektronik PP-10 active and PSU-1-2 passive sonar, and a portable navigational radar may have been used on board along with the GPS.", referencing it to the guide itself. Then I'd add "The claim is contradicted by other sources.", referencing that to the 2007 Slobodna Dalmacija article. That would present info giving it due weight and leaving any conclusions to readers.--Tomobe03 (talk) 16:13, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Was BSO a division (or something else) of Brodosplit in 1996?--Tomobe03 (talk) 21:20, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Right. Another question: I'm looking at 9 December 2013 date in the Brodarski Institut ref and I'm wondering where did the date come from. I found no specific date attached. Where did you find it?--Tomobe03 (talk) 21:30, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, in such cases, one should omit the date from the sfn and refid templates altogether, the date (or year) should always refer to publication date if known, or be omitted if unknown per template documentation.--Tomobe03 (talk) 21:36, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Does DPR OSRH 2006 - 2015 9 December 2013 also refers to access date rather than publication date?--Tomobe03 (talk) 21:47, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
And Brodarski Institut - Reference ref does not work - or at least that's what it looks like to me--Tomobe03 (talk) 21:48, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe my browser is acting up. No worries then. The infobox should also include year when the sub was decommissioned or something, I suppose.--Tomobe03 (talk) 21:53, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe a double box will be needed here. Let me try something and then revert if you prefer to handle it otherwise.--Tomobe03 (talk) 22:03, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Added an extra box similar to Ramb IV. Thoughts?--Tomobe03 (talk) 22:16, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
One more nitpick: there's an image caption saying "Ship name" only. I only assume that's ship's name on the exterior of her hull - it would be good to revise that caption to say where the name appears or something along those lines.--Tomobe03 (talk) 22:22, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Believe it or not, I have no further suggestions for the article, but one: nominate it as a good article! Instructions are found at WP:GAN/I. I may tweak a word or a link or two yet, but a review won't start immediately anyway.--Tomobe03 (talk) 22:28, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You can also apply at WP:GOCE/REQ for copyediting of this (and other) articles. The requests there take long time to process, but prose quality will improve for sure.--Tomobe03 (talk) 22:42, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your message - you're welcome. There are few more things you can do with this article - if you want to improve it further, there's MILHIST A-class review available at WP:MHR. Before going there I'd recommend requesting a copyedit at WP:GOCE/REQ first though. Recently promoted good articles are also eligible for a main page appearance if they contain an interesting fact and a nomination is created within five days of the GA review at WP:DYK. Finally, there's a Military History Project contest at WP:MHCON where this and other (not necessarily GAs) articles may be entered. Once more congrats!

Your account will be renamed[edit]

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Saxum. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Saxum~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,

Disambiguation link notification for October 10[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Croatian missile boat Kralj Petar Krešimir IV (RTOP-11), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Vis. 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.

Orjen-class MTBs[edit]

I'm just prepping this article for Milhist ACR, and wondered if you could confirm exactly what Fraccaroli says about the original and Italian armament? Some sources (like Brescia) seem to indicate that the original armament was two TT plus a 40 mm Bofors plus a 15 mm MG, possibly the Czech ZB vz.60 given the close relationship between Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia in the interwar period.

March Madness 2017[edit]

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:

  • tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope

  • creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:

  • tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
  • adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
  • updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
  • creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

Ljubo Karaman moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Ljubo Karaman, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
