Cat

Hi, Sbmcmull. I've glad to see you are enthusiastic about Irish-Canadian topics. We need more help in this area. However the Category:Irish Canadians is for WP articles only, not userpages. We have separate user categories for that. Please take yourself out of this cat. Thanks. Kevlar67 07:55, 18 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to the Military history WikiProject!

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 very frequently. You can watchlist it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WPMILHIST Announcements}} there.
Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
The project has a monthly newsletter; it will normally be delivered as a link, but several other formats are available.

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

Starting some new articles? Our article structure guidelines outline some things to include.
Interested in working on a more complete article? The military history peer review and collaboration departments would welcome your help!
Working on featured-level articles? We have some advice for nominators, and an A-Class review process to help check high-quality articles.
Want to help with specific requests for assistance? Our requests page has extensive lists of requested articles, images, maps, and translations.
Interested in a particular area of military history? We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, or periods.
Want to know how good our articles are? The assessment department is working on rating the quality of every military history article in Wikipedia.

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 00:34, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Battle of Restigouche

Fair enough. Thanks for the clarification. Albrecht 01:12, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

About your specific concerns:

Calling the Oiler players 'Legends' while not giving a similar tag to the Flames leaders,

Then add a descriptor like “leaders”, “greats”, “favourites”, “stars” etc. OR we can agree to drop all such tags because they too easily become POV, and instead mention only measurable things like points, goals, who was the captain, who was the team’s leading scorers, who won MVP and other awards, who has had their number retired, and (in my opinion most important) who is in the Hall of Fame.

or saying the 1986 series win was a 'moral victory', it does a disservice to both the Flames and the rivalry in general.The Oilers won more Cups, but don't forget that almost every time they did so they had to go through the Flames.

I think the way it is written now does put too much emphasis on Cup wins, whereas the article is really supposed to be more about the rivalry between these two specific teams. I think it should mention more in detail the results of their specific playoff meetings, and most important the all time record in both the regular season and playoffs. That being said the number of Cup win is the ultimate marker of success and something important to the fans, so it should be mentioned too. We shouldn’t remove that info, simply add more context by talking about the historical matchups instead.

Really, what you had were two very evenly matched teams where Gretzky was the difference.

That’s one opinion! :-) … Kevlar67 02:47, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Edit to HMCS Winnipeg (FFH 338)

I reverted your edit to this article - the honours you mention belong to the previous ship of the same name: HMCS Winnipeg (J337). Tabercil (talk) 02:44, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

AfD HMCS Discovery

There is an AfD for HMCS Discovery underway. The result of this AfD may have a bearing on the other articles in the List of Canadian Forces Naval Reserve divisions. Since you have an interest in this area, I thought I ought to bring it to your attention and invite your input. --KenWalker | Talk 18:53, 16 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

1(RCAF) Squadron Battle of Britain

G'Day from New Zealand. 1(RCAF) Squadron fell outside of Article XV provisions; the unit was first formed in 1937 and was sent over to Britain, so I think there is a strong case for Canada being acknowledged as a seperate combatant during the B of B. Cheers Minorhistorian (talk) 00:21, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Glad to help. It can be all too easy to come to conclusions based on wrong or misleading information or because of insufficient research; I think assuming 1(RCAF) Squadron was an Article XV unit falls into the 'insufficient research' category. I must admit I thought the unit was formed under EATS, until I actually read the evidence. Cheers Minorhistorian (talk) 20:53, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Leonard Murray and James Prentice

Hi. I have been building up the Leonard Murray page and adding bits and pieces on the BoA, and have seen your work crop up here and there. Thanks for starting Leonard Murray - it is his page that got me started, so I guess I am a convert. I have recently been in touch with the family of Chummy Prentice and I had suggested they consider starting a page on him, so I was very surprised and pleased to see you have done just that. Maybe you are related? In any case, thanks for this. Friendofleonard (talk) 02:40, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Dominion

The name of the country was always Canada, which happened to be a Dominion. It would be akin to referring to France as the French Republic, which is technically correct, but superfluous. Naming conventions state to go with the common name, which was as much "Canada" at the time of Riel as it is now. Please don't engage in an edit war unless you can cite Wikipedia policy in support of reversion, or references which suggest that "Dominion of Canada" was used in preference to "Canada" at the time. fishhead64 (talk) 09:33, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. When you recently edited Thomas G. Fuller, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Distinguished Service Cross (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.

Ramped Cargo Lighter

Dear McMuff, I found you through the Canadian military interests wikipage. Please could you help me or offer me some direction? I have just made a stub article for the Canadian manufactured WW2 landing craft called the "Ramped Cargo Lighter." Please, do you know of a photograph to illustrate it? So you know of what I speak, here are photos of the RCL in civilian use: http://www.thousandislandslife.com/BackIssues/Archive/tabid/393/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/712/The-Army-Landing-Barges-lsquoWolfe-Islander-1rsquo-and-lsquoWolfe-Islander-2rsquo.aspx

Here, the bottom illustration is an RCL in RAF service: http://www.hyperscale.com/images/Matador_SRichards_Page54_01.jpg

There are two illustrations included in Leslie Roberts, Canada and The War at Sea Alvah M. Beatty, Montreal, 1944, but I have no idea about the copyright.

I would also need to learn how to get said illustration from wherever it is onto the page. Any help would be gratefully received, AmesJussellR (talk) 11:17, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Speedy deletion nomination of RCAF Western Air Command

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on RCAF Western Air Command requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.revolvy.com/main/index.php?s=RCAF%20Western%20Air%20Command. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

March Madness 2017

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:

tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:

tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

Request for advice - getting Leonard W. Murray to Featured Article by 8 May 2023

I am the main contributor to the GA on Admiral Murray, and looking to get it eligible for featured article in the hope it can be the Wikipedia Featured Article on 8 May, the commemoration date of the Battle of the Atlantic. Or if not FA then at least "On this Day". The article has been GA for about 10 years and has been slowly built up since then, and I am ready to put more work into it over the next month (I have plenty of material) but I am looking for someone to guide me through the quality control and nomination process. Can you or a colleague in the Military History or Canadian Military History groups coach me through this? Thanks for any advice. Friendofleonard (talk) 03:12, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
