I know you are new here and are trying to contribute, so can I make a friendly suggestion? Before you do any more work on the [[7554]] page, Take a look at the way these pages are supposed to be formatted. Take a look at [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3]]. That is an example of a great page. Things in particular to notice, the size of the gun images, the size of the screenshots, the text that appears below both types of images and the descriptions of each gun. You're doing a great job and the best way to learn how this site works is trial and error. I cannot tell you how many times I've been chewed out by admins for doing stuff the wrong way. Take a look at that page and use it as a guide. :-) --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 16:42, 29 February 2012 (CST)

The Nambu Model II is a real gun but the photos that I removed from the Enlisted page were modern non-functioning replicas made by Japanese hobbyists. The real gun that the Enlisted model is based on is currently in an American private collection. [[User:Get Em Puppy|Get Em Puppy]] ([[User talk:Get Em Puppy|talk]]) 17:46, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

Your image sizes are too big for the formatting of the page.  Please change your screenshots from "700px" to "500px".   Any real handgun images should be at "300px" and other weapons should be between "450px" or "500px". --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] 23:36, 29 February 2012 (CST)

I've noticed that you've uploaded a large amount of gun images over the past few months. Where exactly have you gotten them?

In the future, if you are creating pages for video games, it would be best to provide a brief summary at the top of the page explaining what the game is and on what format it was released.  There has been a little bit of controversy because the two games you made pages for were unfamiliar and were mistaken for non-eligible projects.  --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] 18:35, 13 March 2012 (CDT)

When you replace an image on a page, would you please upload the new image as a new version of the file it's replacing (i.e. click on the image and select "upload a new version of this file") instead of uploading a new file entirely and tagging the old one for deletion? Normally I wouldn't mind so much, but on a page like ''[[Enlisted]]'', where you have replaced seemingly every image on the page at one point or another, it gets a bit tiresome deleting several hundred images.

:I know you are trying and I respect the fact that you don't speak English, but it is impossible to understand what you are saying. Changes in page format cannot be made without admin approval.

Again I would say, rather then focusing on changing the existing format that has been decided on by the admins, you can work on cleaning up pages. The [[MP40]] page still has the occurrences in list format. You could work on converting it to the new table format. --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 15:31, 21 March 2012 (CDT)

Nambu Type II

The Nambu Model II is a real gun but the photos that I removed from the Enlisted page were modern non-functioning replicas made by Japanese hobbyists. The real gun that the Enlisted model is based on is currently in an American private collection. Get Em Puppy (talk) 17:46, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
