[edit]

The 20th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS (1st Estonian) was a military unit of the German Reich, not one of the Republic of Estonia. It never belonged to the "armed forces of Estonia". Similarly, the Finnish Infantry Regiment 200 was a part of the Finnish defence forces. Admittedly, both had a majority of Estonian soldiers, but so did several of units in the Soviet Army. And isn't the Baltic Battalion some kind of a co-operation force that is not directly subordinated to Estonian defence forces? I think all the three units — the 20th Division, the Infantry Regiment 200 and the Baltic Battalion — should be removed from this list. This does not rule out the possibility of compiling another list that would comprise units in which combatants of ethnic Estonian origin formed a majority or were noteworthily numerous. Such units existed in the Swedish army in the 17th century. -- Ohpuu (talk) 07:48, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

To not merge, but to move List of Estonian Contingencies to a more appropriate names such as Estonia in NATO operations. Klbrain (talk) 14:06, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No other country has such list. No need for a precedent. Estopedist1 (talk) 05:54, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

When I made the article, I didn't look into if other countries had a list, and I see that this would be a good idea, or, the page could be renamed to "List of Estonian peacekeeping missions" or another article name, as the current name doesn't make sense, as it hints to contingencies in Estonia itself, not contingencies Estonia has taken part in.

After consideration, it could be easier to preform a potential move/rename to an article named 'Estonia in NATO operations' and modify the contents of this page, as seen in 'Eesti NATO sõjalistes operatsioonides[1]' EestiEnthusiast (talk) 16:51, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
