Talk:Ernest Harmon Air Force Base

message: If someone reads this,
I wrote the information for the US Military Bases in Eastern Canada (Ernest Harmon AFB and Pepperrill AFB) back in 1988. Everything was referenced and sources cited. The historian who wrote the introduction had given me his permission to put it in the booklet (unpublished) and I am the author and copyright holder. Perhaps someone can let me know what is wrong. I am new at this and am trying to read your instructions for submissions

thread_title: Information

message: I hope the author doesn't mind but I took most of the passages relating to school faculty changes.  I thought these parts would be of little interest to info seekers.  Please reinstate if you disagree.
Removed:
Mrs. Barnett moved to the high school and (the late) Hap Holander was promoted to teacher-principal in the junior high. In 1962/63, Mr. Robert Keefaurer joined the staff as assistant principal.
the administration offices were staffed by Mrs. Toon, Mrs Perdue and Mrs Betty Coroner
with the help of Shirley Vincent, Patricia Sudsbury and Julia Reid in clerical positions. Cyril Alexander was the supply clerk at the time. Mr Kidd (elementary school principal) was transferred to Japan and Mr L.E. Davis was the new Principal. In 1964/65 John Middleton became the assistant high 
school principal and in the administration offices were Mrs. Saul, Mrs. Title, Miss Barnes and Cyril Alexander.
In 1964/65, Greg Hastings was the physical education teacher and coach at the high school and his bride to be was a fourth grade teacher in the elementary school. They were married shortly after leaving the base and are now living in Wilson, North Carolina where Greg is Director of Teacher Education at Atlantic Christian College and Connie is Director of the Children's Center at Wilson County Technical College.
Mrs Edith Raymond taught in the high school in the late 50's and later taught for three years (grade 7&8) in Indiana and 16 years in West Point, Mississippi where she retired in 1980 and is now living on a small farm. Mrs. Barnett returned and Mr. Steve Davis joined the elementary middle school as the audio-visual director.

thread_title:  wikified but I also removed parts 

message: Apart from a mention that engineers from the base used a beach for equipment storage and that one of the people mentioned in this section was stationed on the base, there is no connection of this section to the main article. This is about a private land dispute that occurred over 50 years ago. Even though storage space may be virtually unlimited, this is not a justifictation for the length and level of detail in this section. For example: What value is there in knowing the size of the camping lots, or where the flower shop and tailor shop were located? This section should be removed.

replies: text: Thanks for your note, this was orignally a unpublished manuscript written in a more persanlable manner trying to bring in personal stories and local events that people on the base/town would be interested in knowing. I will endeavour to work on it again. WayneRay 22:34, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm pretty sure that the agreement that lead to the establishment of the US bases in Newfoundland was the Destroyers for Bases deal not Lend Lease.  --Shimbo (talk) 10:29, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

message: I realize anyone can edit Wikipedia articles but this is so far removed from my original book manuscript I wish sometimes people would just leave it alone (OK I stopped venting and whining) I am puttting in the original introduction by John Chambers which I left out in the first place.
