My reasoning for removing the Brazilian MP ranks, is that they are exactly the same ranks as the army ranks and don't contribute to anything new.Skjoldbro (talk) 10:32, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You kinda could, but the USCG is a part of the US armed forces as a branch, whereas the Brazilian MPs only are an auxiliary force inside the Army. Skjoldbro (talk) 18:38, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.

2017 Military history WikiProject Coordinator election
Greetings from the Military history WikiProject! Elections for the Military history WikiProject Coordinators are currently underway. As a member of the WikiProject you are cordially invited to take part by casting your vote(s) for the candidates on the election page. This year's election will conclude at 23:59 UTC 29 September. Thank you for your time. For the current tranche of Coordinators, AustralianRupert (talk) 10:39, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The following addition to the defined and established term of "Facism" has been incorrectly entered.
Fascism has nothing to do with Right Wing or "Far Right" political views. This is purely and only a Liberal, Far Left idea and not a true definition of the term. This is false reporting.
PLEASE REMOVE: Opposed to liberalism, Marxism and anarchism, fascism is usually placed on the far-right within the traditional left–right spectrum.[5][6]
Roger Griffin's ideas of modern fascism are not at all true to the actual term and are therefore a mere Far Left political opinion which Wikipedia should not accept as part of the actual definition of "Fascism."
Aristotle Kallis is also a Far Left political ideologists whose comments in his books have been allowed to incorrectly add a defining line of true and accurate defining of a term, in this case the term "Fascism."

Thanks for your efforts on various military ranks issues. I would like you to find and add a specific source for Liberia's military ranks, former and current, before you readd the data, however. I try to keep that page well sourced. I'm not aware of such an accessible source so if you find one that would be great!! Cheers Buckshot06(talk)19:07, 20 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thankyou, but you don't appear to understand: nobody reads the AFL article and then automatically comes to my talkpage to know the source of the data!! Add the source to the page, using proper referencing footnotes. Otherwise I will remove the entire section. Buckshot06(talk)19:54, 20 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Good. I'm not sure whether I was using a cached copy or reverting to the version that I initially saw, because I did not see that ref. The page number needs to be added, but unfortunately the diagrams with the ranks are not shown in the New National Defence Act 2008. I'm going to remove the diagrams. If you find a source which shows all the diagrams - avoiding WP:SYNTH by pasting from different pages - you can readd them. Cheers Buckshot06(talk)20:14, 20 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017. Nominations and voting will take place on the main project talkpage: here and here. Thank you for your time. For the co-ordinators, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:35, 8 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
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".

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Kaiserschützen, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tyrolean (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians.
Wikipedia editor Abishe just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sibanye Heritage Rangers until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Bbarmadillo (talk) 07:40, 24 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
File:Air Training Corps crest.png listed for discussion
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.
I'm concerned about over tagging on these. Many of them have no military relation. Chepstow Port Wall isn't obvious, but some walls are just tax measures, not military fortifications - when Chepstow was besieged, the attackers walked right through the town walls and stopped at the castle walls. Box Tunnel though is ridiculous. Andy Dingley (talk) 08:20, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on History of Sea Cadets in the UK 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 an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.tsquantock.com/index1-scchistory.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken 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 use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy 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 deleted without delay.

Given the article's description of the extent of the subject's activities, I suspect that it likely is notable. However, the sources provided in the article are insufficient for demonstrating notability, and I was unable to find more online (partly due to my lack of familiarity with Finnish sources)

An article you recently created, Piera Gatteschi Fondelli, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption.

Hi,wWhen translating from another language version of Wikipedia, as at Military prison in Schwedt, you must provide copyright attribution in the edit summary accompanying your translation by providing an interlanguage link to the source of your translation. A model attribution edit summary: Content in this edit is translated from the existing German Wikipedia article at [[:de:Militärgefängnis Schwedt]]; see its history for attribution.
You should also add the template {{Translated|de|Militärgefängnis Schwedt}} to the talk page.

Hello, Cdjp1. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Fard".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Please try to use a more useful edit summary than a mere dot. Edit summaries show up in watchlists and the page history, telling others why you made a change.

These flags in the articles you are adding them are actually counterproductive. I do speak Russian, I have experience with the Russian Wikipedia, and I know that their source requirements are way below what we require. It is a lot of information there which is either unsourced or sourced to low-quality sources. And if it gets added here (and often with machine translation) I will be the one who has to deal with it. Please stop reverting my edits, at least until you are prepared to deal with the consequences - I mean, adding these pages to your watchlist, watch them every day, be prepared to figure out what sources are, copyedit machine translations etc.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:25, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Are you capable of distinguishing between reliable and non-reliable Russian sources? Can you independently check information which only exists in Russian?--Ymblanter (talk) 19:29, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Ymblanter: well reliability would be determined by if the sources meet the standards for the English language wikipedia, as you yourself mentioned. Whilst my Russia is amaturish, checking foreign language sources and working with translation is something I am rather familiar with, and if in doubt it would be a case of erring on the side of rejection of additions.

Hanns Leske, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.
Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

societies prior to their contact with European empires, such as those of Endre Sik. Would it not be better to have a society that has an article?
before the invasion of the Europeans. Is "invasion" the right word to use, doesn't this imply intend? I haven't seen this wording used on other articles related to the subject.
One paper has argued. Isn't this a bit vague? I mean, I like the point it is making, but doesn't there need to be some significance?
Margaret Mead, argue that private property exists in hunter-gatherer and other "primitive societies", but provides examples that Marx and subsequent theorists label as personal property and private property. I really don't understand this. It reads like critics and proponents have the same arguments.
@Skjoldbro: Thank you for the barnstar, I've been working on the edit to publish for around two months so it seems I made some mistakes and overlooked some parts before publishing it.
societies prior to their contact with European empires, such as those of Endre Sik. I used Endre Sík as the example as that was the person specifically referenced in the paper cited, turns out he does have an article, just the "i" in his surname has an accent instead of tittle.
before the invasion of the Europeans. I would choose to use invasion as after initial contact it was acknowledge by the contemporaneous parties that the Americas were inhabited by various societies and polities so the subsequent conquering and subjugation of those societies and peoples I believe fits the wording of "invasion". Though I have now adjusted it to say "colonisation" instead.
One paper has argued. This is from the already existing article, I've adjusted the wording and will look at doing more of a rework if I can access the paper and/or find other similar papers.
Margaret Mead, argue that private property exists in hunter-gatherer and other "primitive societies", but provides examples that Marx and subsequent theorists label as personal property and private property. My bad that final "and" should be a "not". I've now corrected it.
Hey mate, thank you for creating the Military ranks of the Royal Lao Armed Forces, great stuff! There are Navy ranks too which I will add when I can unless you get there first. Wondered if you were planning on any others? Bulgaria Kingdom and People's Republic + People's Republic of Kampuchea (Cambodia) would be grand if so. I can't make the icons unfortunately :(
@Lankyant: Hi, yeah, all of them are on my list, it's just a case of when I get to them due to non-Wiki commitments, and other articles I'm also working on. Kampuchea was going to be my next target after finding the images, and I will get the Loa navy done, though currently only three images currently exist for the ranks on commons. --Cdjp1 (talk) 16:14, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I have been thinking of how to "improve"/change the standard layout concerning point 1 of ranks since the last discussion, have a look at my test page. This allows for comparatives to countries with NATO code. I was thinking that we could change all the Non NATO Templates to this layout, that way we don't even have to change too much. Feel free to try things out or make changes. It might still need some tweaking. Skjoldbro (talk) 09:32, 24 May 2021 (UTC); edited 09:37, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
G'day, I know this a bit late but as you assessed the Australian Army I just wanted some clarification on where, preferably, more citations can be added. Thanks for looking over the article. IronBattalion (talk) 07:16, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I have been thinking of making some minor changes to the rank templates, and wanted to run it by you, to get your thoughts.
Removing the "National rank" category. There is only a limited number of nations which have it, making it redundant in 70-80% of the cases. Additionally, these ranks are generally classified as General/Flag officers.
Removing "None/No equivalent". With the removal of the "National rank", there will be no need for the "none" in the officer category, as most have some kind of general officer. It also makes sense for the other ranks. Even in the NATO system, it should be fine with the removal, as I think it would be self-evident that an empty field in e.g. OR-6, would mean there is no rank within this rank code. I think that Comparative army enlisted ranks of Africa, shows that it is possible to have comparatives without any indicator of "missing" ranks.

Thanks for sorting out the date formats on Emergency medical personnel in the United Kingdom. Just in case you didn't know, you can force an article to automatically display in British dd-mm-yyyy format by putting these two templates at the top of the page (with adjusted dates of course for the date you place them) - {{Use British English|date=September 2021}}

Do you know if there is a specific language code for "modern/late/1600-1800" Cornish? I think kw and cor are equivalent, and incorrect for this purpose? Tewdar (talk) 14:14, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Tewdar: as far as I could find no, so I used the cor code to distinguish internally from revived modern Cornish. I know it's not really good ground to stand on, so if you feel it should be changed then I have no argument against it. --Cdjp1 (talk) 16:39, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, I thought it worked well. Somone else went around "updating" the iso codes, but I think your solution is very good. I think we should just put a note somewhere saying not to change if it happens again. I'll change it back to your version. Thanks for fixing the infobox on Vocabularium Cornicum by the way, looks much better! 😁 Tewdar (talk) 10:49, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Great, I saw it, thanks! Also, I should mention that I used "lang|kw" tags a lot in the "Vocabulary" section to mean 'Cornish of any period', whether old, middle, late, or revived. I think it would make sense to use oco = Old Cornish, cnx = Middle Cornish, cor = Late Cornish, and kw = Revived Cornish (and perhaps also linguistic reconstructions or Cornish of any period). What do you think? Tewdar (talk) 11:49, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Tewdar: yeah if we are talking of words from particular periods, we should use the codes to reflect this so the article is as accurate as possible, for the reconstructions I would suggest checking how such things are handled in other articles for guidance. --Cdjp1 (talk) 11:57, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I fixed the tags and the De Gruyter reference problem. I think on balance, for attested forms, oco = Old Cornish, cnx = Middle Cornish, cor = Late Cornish is best. Then, kw = Revived Cornish (all forms), with reconstructed Old, Middle and Late forms having the above codes but indicate that it is a reconstruction with the usual asterisk. Sound good to you?

I didn’t look at all, but the words are from Morgan, and therefore Seneca. Unfortunately I guess this is obsolete orthography (I’m not an expert either). It would be nice if someone familiar with the Seneca language today could render them appropriately. In the meantime, this is the best we have. Peter Flass (talk) 01:07, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into Religious communism. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 15:07, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
An article you recently created, Francesco Cesare Casula, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello! I noticed that you made a cosmetic edit on the page Doukhobors. Per the bot policy, a cosmetic change is one that does not change the readable output of a page; your edit looked like so.

Hello, I'm Robert McClenon. I noticed that you recently removed content from Tang Chia-kun without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. The use of draft space is usually not required. Copying a page from draft space to article space is discouraged but permitted, and so blanking it is not permitted.Robert McClenon (talk) 06:18, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
