Welcome to my home page! My primary areas of expertise include fixed-wing military aircraft, national air forces, and military history in general. I also have expertise in numismatics, medallic sculpture (chiefly Art Nouveau and Art Deco). If I can be of assistance, please post a note on my talk page.
Cordially,

[edit] Manual of Style
Layout
Lead section
Wikipedia:Guide to layout#Lead section
- Avoid links in the summary — users should be encouraged to read the summary, and the article, before jumping elsewhere. In addition, the colored highlighting of the links may mislead some users into thinking these are especially important points.
Headings
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (headings)
- Avoid special characters in headings, such as an ampersand (&), a plus sign (+), curly braces ({}), or square braces ([]). In place of the ampersand, use the word "and" unless the ampersand is part of a formal name.
- Avoid changing section headings — that will break section-specific links from within the article or from other articles.
- If you link to a section, leave an editor's note to remind others that the section title is linked. List the names of the linking articles, so when the title needs changing, others can fix the links more easily. For example: <!-- This section is linked from [[source#section]] --> .
- If you refer to a section without linking, italicize the section name.
- If you link to a section, do not italicize the section name, unless it otherwise requires italics (for example, if it is the title of a book).
Standard appendices
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (headings)#Standard appendices (See also, Notes and references, etc.)
Wikipedia:Guide_to_layout#Standard_appendices has more details.
[edit] General Style
Abbreviations
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (abbreviations)

Capitalization
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters)
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters)#Acronyms and initialisms

Dashes and hyphens
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dashes)
Dates and numbers
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Dates of birth and death
- When only an approximate date is available, the abbreviation "c." (Latin: circa, "about") may be used.

[edit] Footnotes (WP:FN)
- For each footnote:

<ref name=[Name]>...</ref>, then<ref name=[Name]/>thereafter. - To list footnotes:
<div class=references-small><references/></div>

- For advice about what to link and what not to link, see
- Wikipedia:Make only links relevant to the context (avoiding overlinking),
- Wikipedia:Manual of Style (links)#Internal links, and
- Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Date formatting.
- Useful links that are not mentioned in the prose paragraphs can be added to the "See also" section.
