456:...I already mentioned several statistics on. You want the official records on them? I have no doubts they exist...but as mentioned before, the authorities in question have been historically recalcitrant to obsecene levels on it; I suppose they feel it gives them a bad name, to have ships and planes "just go poof" (that is the more rare kind, but has happened easily more than five times under similar circumstances, which moves beyond coincidence)...as such, they have no list of Missing Vessels; Overdue is the term...for freakin' 50 years or something, and quietly adding "presumed lost at sea" to it, keeping it very quiet. It's annoying: if it were up to me? I would give nothing BUT the official transcripts: the Frederick Valentich UFO disappearance is on Wikisource right now because of that mindset. Show me where one finds notoriously hard-to-uncover transcripts (and if I simply have trouble doing it, and it's actually easy, I'll be the first to admit it), and I'll copy entire sections to Wikisource (and by extension accessable to Knowledge) verbatim, if necessary. That said, I'll tell you right now I won't be "explaining" anything accept the facts as I am also able to cull them on what is known: the tale of the vanishing Cargomasters is as bizarre to me as anyone, and anyone wanting to shout "It's little GREEN MENNNN, lolllllllll...." would be in danger of me threatening to track them down myself, and sue them for birsmirching the human race itself, and that only if in a good mood. What I will do is draw up the cases individually, for their own unexplained disappearance pages, and have the weight of them stand up to the 327:(and after already being heard, earlier, 1,000 miles away from where he could be to begin with) asking for permission to land, at a place he (or rather, the call numbers that corresponded to his plane) could never have realistically have reached to begin with? These are some interesting subjects...and usually brushed off by the pseudo-skeptics...like yourself, I suppose. The "freaky lights" of Columbus, incidentally, were seen back around the Canary Islands, long before the Triangle region...you can find that in the logbook, btw, when looked for...it was the erratic compass readings that took place over on this side of the Atlantic. And, if this material as written for your perusal is not written in such a way as to bring you any degree of satisfaction, or in fact brings implicit in your mind the notion that I in fact write as though I'm someone who either reads, or even admires, a volume such as 465:, an excellent work (which we'll no doubt need to cite alot); a lot of people, in fact, were uncertain what to make of Caidin's "Triangle" stories, because to doubt he meant exactly what he said would be lunacy. In any case: what I wrote, that many ARE unexplained, IS true: they are. Period. You just are willing to warp the page toward POV until I prove otherwise, eh? So be it: "war desired will be war given," to paraphrase something I wrote elsewhere. On a brief side note, it was you who first used the phrase "freaky lights" regarding Columbus, there, and I was copying your term, per your tastes; "anomalous" would've been much more effective. Also, if this has been 241:
therefore mixes the mundanes in with the utterly bizarre. Likewise, he also mentions at about point #3 or so (might be off on that) that no comprehensive study of the Triangle has ever been done...though frankly, if it was, I'd expect the results to be reminiscent of the Condon Report on UFOs, where the "Pro-UFO People" were kicked out by the "Anti's," and the notion of the subject then thoroughly attacked. Point being: if any study were actually done, I doubt it would be unbiased...which actually means you're right: purely scientific study hasn't been done. Only study by people who don't accept the "There is nothing strange at all" BS. --

deference to Chr.K., I have also studied this area; I have sailed through this area; I have read the numerous Triangle books that have been published, and frankly most of the incidents contained within do not stand up to the actual documentation of each case. They don't even stand up to visual observation. Show me the clown who claimed Columbus saw freaky lights, and I'll pull out Columbus' actual logbooks to show what he really said (I did that here). Show me the clown who stated a body was found in a sunken ship with a coffee cup in his hand, and I'll pull out the official Coast Guard report (I did that too). It is claimed
317:, which disappeared in the course of 19 minutes, left no trace whatsoever, as was searched for for over a hundred nautical miles out, would also be very appreciated...though, please, no imbecilic explanations of "downed in a storm" or drug trafficking gone bad (or God knows what else), just something actually believable. How about the two C-133 Cargomasters, gone in 1963? The C-119 Boxcar, 1965? The C-119 actually vanished straight off the radar scope, on a single pass; seriously. Explain to me Peter Jensen's vanishing on February 11, 1980, an example 486:, the most amazingly detailed project I've ever seen; they do it on the featured Formula One article, when alluding to Formula One history: "See main article, History of Formula One." Your removing a similar practice to be developed for Wikiproject Paranormal thus makes no sense to me, as if a more detailed summary of a given event is available, one should automatically link to it in a prominent fashion; I would do the same as I did with NC16002 with each such case, blown out of proportion or not, if the pages existed. -- 982:. What I believe I tried to do with this page was to show two versions: the Triangle version and the documented/actual version, and hopefully regardless of what I personally believe, both versions cana and should be written here. In the case where we cannot find source material on a given incident, we should at at least admit it as such...for example, so-and-so was an incident reported in Winer's book, book not verified by newspaper search, etc. 1122:, the B-52 bomber lost in the Triangle back in 1961. What had to be done first was to establish the fact of the story; prove the plane was real, prove the plane disappeared without a trace, prove the men on it existed, stuff like that, and it had to be done in a way that would avoid the Triangle books...except to give us an idea as to dates. But don't worry too much...the results of my search, at least involving titles, are on 1024:, plus several others, were not within the traditional Triangle boundaries, but they're cited by the Triangle authors in several books, hence their inclusion. As to the "three sections" division of the article, do you think it would be too weighty? I'm all for as much detail as possible, but the end result may be separate articles for each incident. Let's experiment and see what happens. 331:, then please let it be asserted here and now that in no way have I ever wished for this outcome, and in no way wish you any ill-will simply because of what seems to be a personal attack of some kind on a site well-known for frowning on such activities. Possibly overly-long, there...but then again, perhaps it might be useful to create a 106-word sentence there, for comparisons to 1227:
copyright. It's an issue I'm personally passionate about, and a very grave one as Knowledge content can be (and is!) freely replicated all over the internet. Integrating content into an article, even uploading it into the site, can cause it to be copied again and again, far and wide, making a nightmare for those who own the rights to the violated material.

stories state; and C), did he ride Citation and win the Triple Crown? The first two were borne out as fact, while the third wasn't true at all (he rode Citation, but not in any Triple Crown event)...so it would seam that one Triangle writer (Winer) was guilty of making up his own stuff just to make an incident more dramatic.
1230:
Rather than jumping to conclusions about my intent when I ask an honest question, or looking for sarcasm until you're sure you've found it, I'd thank you to assume good faith in our next steps. It'll make matters easier for the both of us. Please let me know how (and where!) you'd like to proceed. --

If you want to move the discussion to my talk page, that's fine by me.

The reason why the dictionary was linked wasn't obvious to me. And that's why I asked.

As to checking the facts out, I think on this subject we have to. An example of someone well known would be jocky Al Snyder, who according to the stories vanished in 1948 after riding Citation to the Triple Crown. I wanted to know if A) Snyder was a real person; B), did he in fact disappear as the

I put the article up for review with the paranormal page some time ago, but I don't think anyone reviewed it. As it stands I don't think it's complete; some subheadings could use a little more detail; the writing could be smoother and more polished in places. Maybe we all should give it a careful

680:
We certainly can't leave out a well-known triangle-victim just because there's no official reference to it; people reading the article will expect it. If the paperbacks are the only source, say that. If they conflict with anything official, say that as well. The point is that it's not for Knowledge
111:
I believe the tag was added because there are those people who "dispute" the official, documented source on a given incident, prefering instead the traditional, "hooey" version. I added a factual accuracy statement above, which briefly describes my own views on the subject, my reasons for altering

Maybe we should send a willing psychic out there who doesn't fear the paranormal, because, who knows, it might actually be the "Devil's Triangle". Or, maybe, it is the lost city of Atlantis, or a time warp, or even a way to the parallel universe that scientists are looking for. Why can't we

I haven't read any of the books except for one, almost three decades ago; I'm sure I couldn't recall the title or the author. As such, your question about my intention is completely unfounded. My interest is in trying to assure that Knowledge dosn't inappropriately use material that's protected by

The Civil Air Board in it's report cited a number of things with the DC3, but it ended with the obvious fact that determination of the cause of the accident cannot be determined due to a lack of wreckage. So, there's going to be speculation by us, by the official documentation, by the Triangle

If you'd bothered to have read the material, you'd have realized that Quasar has gone over more than 10,000 case files on the Triangle, including the fact that "Missing Aircraft" is not a reference that exists, but rather Overdue...humorous, in that that could be for any number of reasons, and

The change in the article was justified due to the fact that previous editors had wanted a traditional slant that agreed with the "hooey". Like it or not, the reader is now faced with links to official Coast Guard and Navy reports, newspapers, photographs; as well as the original Columbus log

Why is there a disputed tag on this article? It reads fairly balanced, especially since Bermuda's Triangle is a bunch of hooey (scientific term for BS, such as Creationism, the Loch Ness Monster, and UFO's). I tried to find the discussion in here, but it doesn't exist. Shouldn't the tag be

I'm thinking of the Flight 19 section, which is much too long for a subject treated on its own page. I'm quite good at chopping down excess text, want me to do it? 1448:
just do that, the person doesn't have to be God-fearing, but maybe a person like that will help us figure out what is going on! We need to know what is happening. I don't fear dissapearing into an unknown area, because, unlike some people in America, I don't fear the unknown!

And if the Canary Island lights are cited, wouldn't that again be proof that these lights occured elsewhere, and not as the Triangle authors have stated? It's called proof of fact, Chr.K.
