Request for help Desert Tech MDR[edit]
Hello K.E. Coffman,
I have been trying to put up a page on the Desert Tech MDR for months now but it seems I am missing something critical. I saw your name on the Wikiproject Firearm and saw you listed as a specialist in Modern Rifles. I would like assistance figuring out why my submission keeps getting removed it seems almost random at times where some pages are able to use certain sources and others not (and I checked the wiki page source reliability page and made sure all my sources were allowed). It has come to the point where I can't use any sources that weren't published by a news organization (which results in pretty much all of the firearm history and problems (and this particular rifle and its follow on generation and upgrades, MDR gen 2 gas block redesign and MDRx which is the gen 3 rifle). I would appreciate any help or insight you might have in what I can do to get this page working.

So, I sometimes read through your userpage...[edit]
...and I wanted to ask if you know anything about the current state of the Gas van article. Based on what little I know about the subject matter, the Nazi version is considerably better known/established? than the Russian one so it looks a bit odd in light of WP:UNDUE that both have almost equal space on the page (although I note that the Russian section is partly talking about the Nazi one).
