Soldier of Fortune magazine[edit]
Why did you delete the excerpt from my book, "Plow the Dirt but Watch the Sky"? Who do you think you are; did you work at the magazine, as I did? Gospodingavno (talk) 18:16, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
- Gospodingavno, please play nice. I agree with that edit, by the way, because that text is unencyclopedic, conversational, and totally unclear. Drmies (talk) 18:21, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

- Hello, the material re Brown is speculative and unsubstantiated. If the user would like to speculate on Robert K Brown, there is a wiki page for him. Thank you. RedlineBluepencil (talk) 14:40, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
- The material you reinserted relies almost exclusively on the writings of one academic whose work has been termed "biased," and itself is poorly sourced. His book received only one review in 2021 on Amazon, where the reviewer termed it "subpar." https://www.amazon.com/product-reviews/B075MT6BR3/ref=cm_cr_unknown?ie=UTF8&filterByStar=two_star&reviewerType=all_reviews&sortBy=recent&pageNumber=1#reviews-filter-bar. Additionally, the material you reinserted delves heavily into the history of Rhodesia, which is not relevant. RedlineBluepencil (talk) 21:56, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
