Template talk:ORDATA

ORDATA has moved

It's now at https://ordata.info

Worse: all the ID numbers have been reassigned, so all 61 pages that use the template must presumably be individually updated.

As an inexperienced editor and a non-military-historian, I'm wary of undertaking this task in case, through lack of knowledge, I make things worse.

If you get me a list of the old/new ID numbers, I can make the required fixes. Might also be worth dropping a note at MILHIST itself. Primefac (talk) 21:50, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks. I made a start, but quickly found that some entries are missing or are referred to by different names here and on ORDATA. I'd rather leave the task to someone who knows the field. I've already notified the template author, who appears to be active in MILHIST, so perhaps I should give them time to respond before contacting the project.

It doesn't hurt to contact the project. Crowdsourcing and all that. It's faster for 60 people to find one link each than one person to find 60. Primefac (talk) 23:57, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Ok, I've done so. I relayed your offer to make the fix: hope that's ok. Rural Spaceman (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 00:22, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
