You might have credited @Cy-27 since much of 'your' text is simply copied from his 2013 post (even down to his boldings). Giving credit were due would have been both polite and adhering to forum rules.

And, frankly, inserting your speculative designations into the text by @Cy27 isn't particularly helpful. Why not organize your lists by 'Named Aircraft/Unknown Type Numbers'; 'Type Numbers'; 'G.W.E. Numbers', etc.?
