Moving pages

[edit]

Hi there! I noticed your request/query at the talk page of the British 50th Infantry Division. Page moving is thankfully an undemanding task and pertinent Wikipedia pages are located at Wikipedia:Moving pages and Wikipedia:Requested moves. I'd also like to express my thanks for your contributions to WWII related articles. Keep up the good work! SoLando (Talk) 04:49, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.

A few features that you might find helpful:

  • Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
  • The announcement and open task box is updated quite regularly. You can watch it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WPMILHIST Announcements}} there.
  • Our project worklist contains some of the articles we're working on, together with a rating of their quality. It's not nearly complete, though, so please feel free to add any articles you work on if they aren't already listed there!

There are a variety of interesting things to do within the project; you're free to participate however much—or little—you like:

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the project coordinators, or any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! Kirill Lokshin 13:15, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi Tristan!

[edit]

Hope you had a good holiday. Note what you said about the two seperate sets of history for the TA divisions, and the WW1 Wikikampfgruppen. Can you tell me a little of the history of the TA 1918-39? When did the divs stand down after ww1, and when did they reemerge? Cheers Buckshot06 08:50, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks again Tristan. Still trucking on... have made a short note with your and some other info in the Territorial Army page Buckshot06 07:52, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Hey Tristan. Good thought on the insignia for 5 Div. However for ww2 we need the 'Y' type insignia... Cheers Buckshot06 00:02, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Just fine with me. But which one of us finds and loads the 'Y' insignia for 5th Infantry Division in World War II? Buckshot06 07:15, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Badges

[edit]

Hi, Tristian. You could try emailing the owner of the website and asking if they will let you use the images on Wikipedia articles about the divisions. If you promise to include their website in the "external links" they may agree. Davidbober 20:57, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Contribution

[edit]

Hello. I am currently trying to contribute to a battle in respect to giving a reason why a Viking force had to withdraw from a native attack, which I think was instrumental to the article itself and since the person in question received her place in history for that act. Its my understanding that Wikipedia is meant for contributions, but the people at that region see fit to leave the situation vague. They have told me that I cannot simply copy and past from references and, in short order, I re-wrote the small addition in my own words. I don't see what the problem here is, however, they simply revert my edits and give me vague conclusion to why they have done so. The site is intended to be used for non-commercial reproduction so we have no problems in copyright infringement. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. InternetHero 23:01, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Hey Tristan, I see you've just changed the casualty figure for the Japanese section. But doesn't that figure belong to the Battle of Singapore and not Malaya? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wolcott (talkcontribs) 11:23, August 21, 2007 (UTC).

W. G. Holmes

[edit]

Hi, Tristan: an apology. I 'went live' this morning with an article I've been working on, William Holmes (British general). When I was in the middle of making links to it, I found there was an existing stub for the same man called William George Holmes, so I merged this to my new article, picking up most of the text from it. But I have just discovered that William George Holmes was a very recent creation by you. So I hope you won't be offended! If you would prefer to bring the combined text back to William George Holmes, making William Holmes (British general) a redirect, that would be fine by me. Either name will do, but your start was clearly first. regards, Xn4 14:13, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

No worries mate it's all good so long as we have an article on the man. I'm not bothered too much about the credit or edit count. The article you wrote is good as well. Thanks for the politeness though i appreciate that. Tristan benedict 15:28, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Leslie Collumbine, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of the page.

asking for your support

[edit]

Good day, I am soliciting your input and support for reinstating an article that I wrote called Leo J Meyer. Col Meyer was a soldier who started out in pre WWII National Guard ranks. After being called to Federal service and serving in the Pacific for most of 1942 he attended USAAF OCS in Miami Beach Fl along with several Hollywood personalities. His squad Sergeant was William Holden. He continued thru the war to Japan and returned after it to NYNY. He reenlisted in the National Guard and then transferred back onto active duty. He managed to get his commission reinstated and spent the rest of his time on active Army until retiring as a Colonel in 1971. He actually participated in combat in three wars and was awarded three Combat Infantryman Badges (read the article and the article on the CIB to learn the significance).

Besides telling a story of a man who “just wanted to be a soldier” I intended to wet the whistle of readers with a glimpse of US Army history (federalization of NG, WWII enlisted rank system, etc) hoping to encourage further investigation and learning of that history via Wikipedia.

I began posting the article to Wikipedia in late November 2007. By late January 2008 I felt the military biography was essentially complete without telling anecdotal stories about him and his friends like Hugh Casey for whom Camp Casey, Korea was named. That would only point out his personality and not necessarily be encyclopedic. At the end of January 08 a Wikipedia Administrator nominated the article for deletion. Although there were a couple of administrators who participated in the discussions who supported leaving the article, the decision was made to delete.

Obviously I feel that the Military Biographical Article falls in line with other articles of soldiers like Meyer’s friend Frederick Weyand whose article was the example I followed.

I found that those people who participated in the AfD did not read everything published or what was there very clearly, i.e. I hade posted an image of an article from an Army publication which addressed Meyer’s earning his parachute wings at age 51 and I had included from the get go the title of a book about Scrimshaw in which some of his art work was published by the books author. One complaint about this later was that there was no ISBN. I could not find one but I have found the Library of Congress Catalog numbers for the two books referenced.

I have modified the article and it is currently at User:Meyerj user page. I am inviting you to read it and if you support reinstating it, helping me to do so.

Thank you for your time. Meyerj (talk) 17:53, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Re: Battle of Muar

[edit]

I've never really been active in WWII-related areas, so I'm not sure who the best people to look at that might be. You might want to ask Cla68; he's very active with Pacific War articles, and would probably know the regular editors in the area even if the particular article is outside his main interests. Kirill [pf] 00:42, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Sorry for the delayed response. I'll put the article on my watchlist. I haven't heavily edited any of the Southeast Asia area Pacific War articles, and I'm not sure which regular editors have. I do suggest the following sources for the article:

  • Hayashi, Saburo (1959). Kogun: The Japanese Army in the Pacific War. Marine Corps Association. ASIN B000ID3YRK. {{cite book}}: Cite has empty unknown parameter: |coauthors= (help)

  • Willmott, H. P. (1983). The Barrier and the Javelin: Japanese and Allied Pacific Strategies February to June 1942. Annapolis, Maryland: Naval Institute Press. ISBN 0-87021-535-3. {{cite book}}: Cite has empty unknown parameter: |coauthors= (help)
  • The three-volume Bloody Shambles books by Christopher Shores.

The Wilmott and Rottman books are easy to find, Shores books a little more difficult, and the Hayashi book almost impossible. I have an electronic copy of Hayashi's book. If you send me an email (my email on my Wikipedia account is enabled) I'll try to reply with the book attached. It's kind of a large file, so I can't guarantee that I'll be successful at sending it. It's a good source, though, on the Imperial Japanese Army's side of the war, although it gives a very high-level view. Cla68 (talk) 04:57, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

For help with Australian sources and information, you might contact User:Nick-D. Cla68 (talk) 11:48, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
I just found another book which doesn't appear to hard too find for a reasonable price on the used book seller sites:
  • Falk, Stanley L. (1975). Seventy days to Singapore: The Malayan Campaign, 1941-1942. Hale. ISBN 070914928X. {{cite book}}: Cite has empty unknown parameter: |coauthors= (help) Cla68 (talk) 06:32, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Pacific War

[edit]

I seeking a second opinion on the Pacific War regarding the combatants taking into acoount the discussion below. I would like to see a more neutral consensus since there seems to be none.--119.95.7.96 (talk) 08:40, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

Why don't we just list them all?

Guys, it really wouldn't be that hard or take up too much space.

Like this:

ALLIES: Republic of China, United States (inset: Philippine Commonwealth), United Kingdom (inset: British India), Australia, Netherlands (inset: Dutch East Indies), Soviet Union, New Zealand, Canada, Mexico, Fiji, Tonga, Mongolia

AXIS: Empire of Japan (inset: Manchukuo, Mengjiang, Wang Jingwei government, Ba Maw regime, Provisional Government of Free India), Thailand, Germany

This way, we count all governments which contributed combat forces at some point, while leaving out those that did not (such as Free France, Panama, Nicaragua, etc.). The Vichy French weren't really on anyone's side in the Pacific War, so leave them out. It also excludes Japanese puppet states such as the Empire of Vietnam, Kingdom of Cambodia, Laos, and the Second Philippine Republic which did not contribute military forces.WDW Megaraptor (talk) 20:59, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

I guess it depends on what you see as the purpose of an infobox. If you just see it as a venue for another list, ok. But if you see it as being a place to go for a quick overview of the most important facts, then no. Most of the countries you want to add had minimal if any influence on the war in the Pacific, nor were they able to operate independently of their "controlling" powers. It is simply misleading to add them.
Most military conflict infoboxes list all participants in a conflict, unless they were so numerous as to take up too much space.WDW Megaraptor (talk) 02:33, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
This is a wiki, we aren't required to do anything just because someone else is doing it (with the exception of following established policies and guidelines, of course). This is a purely content issue, and consensus on the individual talk page is how things like this are determined.
To address the issue directly, most of the additions you want to make to the infobox made minimal contributions to the war effort on either side, and adding them would only confuse the average reader who doesn't know much about this war. The infobox is supposed to give readers the gist of the information at a glance; for combatants, they need to take away that the war was primarily between China, the US, UK, and Australia versus Japan. Parsecboy (talk) 11:03, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
The Strength field of the infobox could be used to differentiate the size of the contribution. Right now you are drawing an arbitrary line between important and unimportant contributors.WDW Megaraptor (talk) 04:14, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
That is the role of an editor, to draw distinctions between important and unimportant information. --Michael Johnson (talk) 03:05, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Would you please mind adding some sources to this article? Buckshot06(prof) 03:05, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Krohcol

[edit]

I was wondering if you could help me. I have been contributing to the 11th indian Division article and a person called Jim Sweeney keeps delting my contributions to the article. Of late I have added the Krohcol force to the orbat but it keeps getting deleted. Krohcol was a part of 11th Indian division but was reverted to corps command to ease the burden of the 11th indian divisions commander Murray-Lyon. I have provided a link to a website for Sweeney by a staff officer captured at singapore but he claims it is not a reliable source yet he qoutes web links too. I am starting to get the feeling that the article is purely his domain and should consist of what he puts in it. Please could you try to maintain the accuracy of the article in case my edits are blocked for being mistaken as vandalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.110.197.132 (talk) 16:08, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

Matabele Campaign

[edit]

Hi Tristan, I see from the history that you started this article, which I have just nominated for deletion. I don't think the article is really necessary (all it does is refer to two articles which already exist), and it isn't really accurate in any case: it was the British South Africa Company, not the British Army, which was in Matabeleland and Mashonaland at this time.

The discussion over the possible deletion is here. I look forward to hearing from you there. Thanks, Cliftonian (talk) 03:18, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

We noticed though that when you edited Ali Dara, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Malaya (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Battle of Jitra, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Gurun (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
