1. USS Orizaba (ID-1536) One online source for this article is in Portuguese, and I'd like to make sure that information cited from that source was interpreted correctly. (I used a Google translation when working on the article.) — Bellhalla (talk) 22:12, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
2. A request is sent to my talk page OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 19:58, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

   There is an unreferenced section in the article on the Vickers Vimy about use of some of the Vimy Commercials delivered as airliners to China as bombers in the Second Zhili-Fengtian War. After extensive Googleing, I have managed to find this link http://cwlam2000hk.sinaman.com/caf05.htm, which appears to say something about Chinese military use of the Vimy - could you have a look at the link and see if it backs up what the Vimy Article says about Chinese military use. Thanks Nigel Ish (talk) 18:46, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

3. Conrad of Urach - Both sources for this article are apparently German, and I would like to know for certain that the info in our article is in fact present in these two articles. It won't be nessicary to do a thourough read threw, just a quick check of both source to confirm they both deal about the man and his life will do. Thanks.

   The online source contains all information except that the crusade was the sixth. The second source exists and contains part of his biography in the title. Wandalstouring (talk) 10:23, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

4. There are a couple of good diagrams in a dialect of German, http://bar.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bild:EuropaNATOWP1959.png, and http://bar.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bild:EuropaNATOWP1973.png, that I'd like translated to be incorporated on the NATO page. Could I ask our German translating troops to first translate the German text? Regards, Buckshot06(prof) 03:54, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
