message: Also use references to back your statements, using reliable sources. And no, YouTube (not "Youtube") is usually not a reliable source (IP editors will even actually always get reverted by a bot if they post a YT link). Another thing: there are many grammar and style problems with your edits, so maybe you should just stay with the Russian Wikipedia instead. --Niemti (talk) 15:33, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: And also, make sure the content doesn't infringe copyright either, as I have discovered that your revert re-added some material (especially in the "Wing Commander Standoff (2004-2009)" section) which appears to be cut and paste from http://standoff.solsector.net/about.shtml, a copyrighted source.

text: I don't think it was intended as a series name, but a section name similar to the "Spin off" section. I've moved the Saga section under Spin off now, as it seems to fit there in a similar fashion to Wing Commander Arena. -- ferret (talk) 18:53, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

message: As above. Rather Paul Lidberg was one of the writers of WC2. During those days. it was fairly common for the CG development team to voice the characters themselves. 
I'm going to delete the part that Frank Welker = Paul Lidberg until there's a verifiable source.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.116.128.58 (talk) 03:30, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

message: The page is called Wing Commander franchise, instead it should be called Wing Commander Universe because it has taken a life on its own. Due to a dedicated community games like Wing Commander Saga and or Flight Commander would not exist. I argue that like the Star Wars franchise that is basically it's own universe and community, Wing Commander is no different. Referring to Star Wars and Wing Commander as a universe would allow more content to be added to Wikipedia and expose wiki-readers to the full extent of what each community has to offer. Not to mention the wiki pages would be a timeline showing how the community shaped and changed said franchises. The only requirement I would have, is that each community based project needs to be completed before allowing a wiki page or entry. Also, in games like Rome Total War, Wikipedia allows separate pages for mods that have contribute to the games success but when it comes to community based games, books, comics or whatever pertaining to Star Wars, Star Trek, Wing Commander and Ultima, just to name a few, any entry in wikipedia or a page created on wikipedia is usually deleted quite fast. Please explain why?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.62.117.219 (talk) 19:50, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

message: Hey guys, I was looking up Ted Dekker's father John Dekker, and for some reason his name redirected me to this page. As far as I can tell, Wing Commander is entirely unrelated to this missionary from Indonesia. I'm pretty inexperienced, so is anyone capable of changing that? Thanks all!

replies: text: The redirect exists because "John Dekker" is a character in the franchise. I suspect that at some point there was an article for the character, but it was deemed to not be notable so was redirected here. -- ferret (talk) 12:13, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
