Hello Catlemur
I see that you extensively rewrote this article last year. You make little reference to Billy's Moss book which is the primary contemporary account. The 2014 edition of Ill Met by Moonlight also contains Paddy Leigh Fermor's retrospective from 2001 which is relevant, as well as the new introduction by Billy Moss's daughter. It would probably make sense to read this source and amend the article accordingly.

- @Huguº: I currently have neither the access to Ill Met by Moonlight nor the time to work on the article, I would have definitely used it if I could though.--Catlemur (talk) 12:19, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

Gazi II Giray
On 08may you edited out everything that I loaded from Gaivoronsky. Is there evidence that Gaivoronsky is wrong, or was there some other problem? Benjamin Trovato (talk) 04:51, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- @Benjamin Trovato: Its pretty simple. You distorted the flow of the article by bolding sections of it, creating a two line paragraph and leaving a paragraph unreferenced. You then added Gaivoronsky to the reference list without citing him a single time. I saw no reasonable explanation for it and therefore reverted it to its past state.--Catlemur (talk) 11:16, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- You must be seeing something that I don't see, so I will leave the article alone. Benjamin Trovato (talk) 02:51, 13 July 2019 (UTC)

Your recent edit on "2019 Hong Kong anti-extradition bill protests"
Greetings and felicitations. Your edit on the article 2019 Hong Kong anti-extradition bill protests left several named references empty, and they are generating errors. Might you (please) be so kind as to repair this oversight? —DocWatson42 (talk) 14:15, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
- @DocWatson42: I assume this was fixed by Mikeblas' edit.--Catlemur (talk) 15:39, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, that appears to be the case. :-) —DocWatson42 (talk) 03:39, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

Aratus of Sicyon
Hello - just letting you know that I've accepted your WP:GOCE/REQ request to edit Aratus of Sicyon. Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or comments on the copy editing process. I'll ask if I have questions too! Regards - FiveFaintFootprints (talk) 00:10, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
- @FiveFaintFootprints: Thank you.--Catlemur (talk) 15:25, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Catlemur: Hi - I left a note under your notification of the failed GAN, because I'd hate to think that the time it took before the copy edit request was accepted had led to that result. But in working on the article so far I've also noticed the over-reliance on Roberts & Bennett's book, and agree that additional sources are needed. I hope that the copy-edit will fix the tone and expression issues. Regards - FiveFaintFootprints (talk) 15:38, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

BW1 War Medal
Great work and wish you the best in your effort to promote the article. About the medal I'd found it in display on Athens War Museum, the picture was taken by me.Alexikoua (talk) 19:53, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
By the way this was the first conflict which Greek aviation took action. I can help you expanding the article with an additional section.Alexikoua (talk) 19:59, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Alexikoua: You are more than welcome to help out, I actually saw no mention of the aviation use in the sources I used.--Catlemur (talk) 20:22, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
