Infobox

Everything in the infobox needs to be in the body of the article and cited. That includes the battles the regiment was involved in, the CO and RSM names, the lot. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 01:20, 11 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The unit flash (referred to here as an icon) is that of 1st (UK) Armoured Division, and I suspect 1 Signal Regiment has a different one now that it isn't 1 ADSR anymore. In any case, it needs a source. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 20:38, 11 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I updated it today, it's the rhino now..J-Man11 (talk) 03:49, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I see that, but it would have been the rhino when it was 1 ADSR. What is your source for it being the rhino? You need to cite it. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 04:06, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I added the information at the bottom of the page for the icon..J-Man11 (talk) 04:10, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Generally these things are called a unit badge or unit flash. You need a page number. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 04:20, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I had the page number, but I "clarified" better now J-Man11 (talk) 14:48, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

OK, the year of origin 1885 needs to be fixed, as only 1905 is cited in the article. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 00:38, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Badge

@Peacemaker67 Your saying its not in that page, yes it is.. it clearly is.. I'll show a picture to prove it:

The page about 1 Sig Regt including the squadrons, CO's name and badge is page 27. Page 15 has stuff about various exercises, but nothing about 1 Sig Regt. Are you using the page numbers at the bottom corner of each page? Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 02:50, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No..! Oh I see what you mean.. no I was looking at the top because the bottom one was too big when you view it.. so I used the "top" 15. If your going by the bottom number it would be 27 then J-Man11 (talk) 18:22, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

OK, so change the citation? Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 23:48, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please check the grammar and tense

in this article. Thank you.

Name change

I'm hereby requesting this page be transferred to the title of 1st Signal Regiment (United Kingdom) to keep it consistent with the other signal regiment pages made and coming. Leaving a redirect would be the best option. But all the page names should be consistent. Tagging @Dormskirk and @SmartyPants22. J-Man11 (talk) 01:51, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

OK with me. Dormskirk (talk) 09:45, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
