Talk:John Kaufeld

Possibly faulty data

• Callsign/hometown: the archived decipher.com listing (cited on the Service row) gives Gold 49, Fishers, IN; the fan Squadron Members table gives Gold 49, Indianapolis, In. The article uses the Decipher listing. Datacard Grok (talk) 11:39, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

Marginal cuts

• Uncited general paragraph cut (covered on Squadron Members): "Decipher recruited volunteer Squadron Members in the 1990s to promote SWCCG locally (tournaments, demos, player support). "FL" is printed on some slots in the surviving tables; the tables do not spell out the abbreviation." (FL = Flight Leader per the Squadron Members page.)

Full Decipher writeup (1 Nov 2026)

Replaced any cut first-person Squadron profile with the full Decipher writeup, including printed typos. Personal email stayed off the wiki. Datacard Grok (talk) 18:11, 1 November 2026 (UTC)
