Schlossberg, please read Wikipedia:NPOV. We strictly enforce this policy.
Also I nominated this article KAL 007 and the Russian Ramming Attempt for deletion because it is unreferenced and an NPOV violation. WhisperToMe (talk) 01:36, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
We do not post eyewitness accounts as separate articles. We are an encyclopedia. Wikisource is used for texts and Wikiquote is used for quotes. WhisperToMe (talk) 01:54, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
You could have the author of the book produce a form of permission and have the text uploaded to Wikisource - BUT make sure the author positively gives permission. WhisperToMe (talk) 02:01, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
Sorry 'bout that - Wikisource in fact prohibits any copyrighted texts [1] - Well, maybe another Wiki will want to take the KAL007 texts. WhisperToMe (talk) 06:05, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
- Wait, I notice that it prohibits fair use - If you get permission from the copyright holder I think you can upload it to Wikisource after all.. WhisperToMe (talk) 03:58, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
- You are welcome - but make sure that the people on WikiSource know of the author's permission - if you need to have the author contact Wikisource and tell Wikisource that you have his permission :) WhisperToMe (talk) 07:19, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
Will do. Just noticed that the article, now in Wikisource has been nominated for deletion. In the request for Comment, I mentioned your name as the one who suggested that it can be done this way - If that's O.K. I have the author's permission letter to use in case requestedBert Schlossberg (talk) 07:38, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
- It has not been nominated for deletion yet -- the notice says "Warning: This page does not provide license information and may be nominated for deletion." - So, contact this guy Wikisource:User_talk:Jayvdb and he will clarify stuff and will help you prove that you have the author's permission :) WhisperToMe (talk) 15:01, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
Is the information mentioned in that book also in the ICAO report? I think the ICAO report would mention the stuff in the Hokkaido beaches. WhisperToMe (talk) 21:14, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yep, the citation is for that last part that hasn't been cited yet. :) WhisperToMe (talk) 20:26, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sakhalin
So, you made this:
- On May 28, 1995, an earthquake measuring 7.5 on the Richter scale occurred, killing 2,000 people in the town of Neftegorsk.
Part of the Korean Air Flight 007. Interesting. ~ WikiDon (talk) 05:36, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
So I did, Don. Sorry. Actually I became aware of it but hoped that others could put subtitles like I did to the sections to put more order to it. Can it still be done,leaving my subsection title up and letting that be an encouragement to others?Bert Schlossberg (talk) 05:48, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
If not could you replace the other info of my edit and leave the subtitle off?Bert Schlossberg (talk) 05:52, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] AfD nomination of Stalk of KAL 007
I have nominated Stalk of KAL 007, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Stalk of KAL 007. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
