In short American Revolutionary War and War of American Independence are the two most common names for the war.

And I would like to briefly explain the background of this topic. </p><p>The reason that I proposed using "conquest" instead of "invasion" in the article title is because the regime (the Republic of Formosa) did not own the territorial sovereignty of Taiwan, which belonged to Japan. Therefore the use of "invasion" can mislead readers into believing that Japan invaded other people's territory. </p><p>The historical fact was that, China ceded the territorial sovereignty of Taiwan to Japan. And before Japan went to Taiwan to take over Taiwan, the said regime formed, on Japanese territory Taiwan, in order to rebel against the takeover of Taiwan by Japan. The rebellious regime only existed for about 150 days and did not even manage to rule or administer Taiwan. --<a href="/wiki/User:Matt_Smith" title="User:Matt Smith">Matt Smith</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Matt_Smith" title="User talk:Matt Smith">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Matt_Smith-2017-01-16T07:54:00.000Z-Discussion_about_article_title_at_Japanese_invasion_of_Taiwan_(1895)" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:54, 16 January 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Matt_Smith-2017-01-16T07:54:00.000Z-Discussion_about_article_title_at_Japanese_invasion_of_Taiwan_(1895)"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Matt_Smith-2017-01-16T07:54:00.000Z-Discussion_about_article_title_at_Japanese_invasion_of_Taiwan_(1895)"></span> </p><p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Matt_Smith-2017-01-16T08:55:00.000Z-Discussion_about_article_title_at_Japanese_invasion_of_Taiwan_(1895)"></span>Maybe "Japanese takeover of Taiwan" sounds more neutral than "Japanese conquest of Taiwan".

I don't feel like the main article goes into the timeline of the war enough, but I'm not sure at this point if a year-by-year approach is the best way to approach it. Would like your thoughts. <a href="/wiki/User:South_Nashua" title="User:South Nashua">South Nashua</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:South_Nashua" title="User talk:South Nashua">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-South_Nashua-2017-01-17T17:52:00.000Z-Civil_War_Year-by-Year:_1861" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">17:52, 17 January 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-South_Nashua-2017-01-17T17:52:00.000Z-Civil_War_Year-by-Year:_1861"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-South_Nashua-2017-01-17T17:52:00.000Z-Civil_War_Year-by-Year:_1861"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Talk:Whiskey_Rebellion/GA1_Looking_for_some_help..." data-mw-thread-id="h-Talk:Whiskey_Rebellion/GA1_Looking_for_some_help...-2017-01-19T05:14:00.000Z"><span id="Talk:Whiskey_Rebellion.2FGA1_Looking_for_some_help..."></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Talk:Whiskey_Rebellion/GA1_Looking_for_some_help...-2017-01-19T05:14:00.000Z"></span><a href="/wiki/Talk:Whiskey_Rebellion/GA1" title="Talk:Whiskey Rebellion/GA1">Talk:Whiskey Rebellion/GA1</a> Looking for some help...<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Talk:Whiskey_Rebellion/GA1_Looking_for_some_help...-2017-01-19T05:14:00.000Z"></span></h2><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"></div></div></div> <table style="background-color: #fdffe7; border: 1px solid #fceb92;"> <tbody><tr> <td rowspan="2" style="vertical-align: middle; padding: 5px;"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Shearonink-2017-01-19T05:14:00.000Z-Talk:Whiskey_Rebellion/GA1_Looking_for_some_help..."></span><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:AlbertGallatin.jpeg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3a/AlbertGallatin.jpeg/200px-AlbertGallatin.jpeg" decoding="async" width="200" height="213" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3a/AlbertGallatin.jpeg/300px-AlbertGallatin.jpeg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/3a/AlbertGallatin.jpeg 2x" data-file-width="352" data-file-height="375"/></a></span> </td> <td style="font-size: x-large; padding: 3px 3px 0 3px; height: 1.5em;"> </td></tr> <tr> <td style="vertical-align: middle; padding: 3px;"><a href="/wiki/Whiskey_Rebellion" title="Whiskey Rebellion">Whiskey Rebellion</a> was nominated for a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:GA" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:GA">WP:GA</a> by a user who hasn't been participating in the Review so far.

I am doing some project-level analysis on the project performance, and find something interesting. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Group_performance_trends_MilitaryHistory.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/01/Group_performance_trends_MilitaryHistory.png/220px-Group_performance_trends_MilitaryHistory.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="160" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/01/Group_performance_trends_MilitaryHistory.png/330px-Group_performance_trends_MilitaryHistory.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/01/Group_performance_trends_MilitaryHistory.png/440px-Group_performance_trends_MilitaryHistory.png 2x" data-file-width="933" data-file-height="678"/></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> <p>Some explanations about the variables: </p><p><b>group_article_productivity</b>: this is the total number of edits on the articles claimed within the scope of the project. </p><p><b>project_art_comm</b>: this is the total number of edits on the talk pages of articles claimed within the scope of the project. </p><p><b>project_coors</b>: this is the total number of edits on the project page and project talk page. </p><p><b>project_user_comm</b>: this is the total number of edits on the project members made on the user talk pages of each other. </p><p><br/> The variables are aggregated by one month. We can see there is an obvious burst on project article productivity, project article communication, and project coordination around time interval 70th, which is around May, 2009. I don't know what happened at that time that caused that burst. I wonder if someone has been working on the project for a long time, and could recall that.

It could also be that the articles tagged/assessed as part of the project caused a leap in the number of edits recorded since the MILHIST template and categories were now tracking them. A look through <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:2009" title="Wikipedia:2009">WP:2009</a> doesn't suggest anything of particular note, but 2009 was the year we rolled out the A-Class medals, and marked the second year we had our military historian of the year award. As for the sudden drop off, that's harder to pin down precisely, but around 2009 we implemented several site-wide changes that ended up choking off a lot of the things that used to make Wikipedia great. Among other things, this time saw the removal of page creation rights for anon (isp) editors, the tightening of notability and other guideline and policy pages, a marked drop in admin rights issued by rfa, and so forth. You can see this for yourself by comparing <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:2009" title="Wikipedia:2009">WP:2009</a> and prior years with <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:2010" title="Wikipedia:2010">WP:2010</a> and later years. <a href="/wiki/User:TomStar81" title="User:TomStar81">TomStar81</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:TomStar81" title="User talk:TomStar81">Talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-TomStar81-2017-01-26T13:38:00.000Z-Anotherclown-2017-01-26T11:47:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">13:38, 26 January 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-TomStar81-2017-01-26T13:38:00.000Z-Anotherclown-2017-01-26T11:47:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-TomStar81-2017-01-26T13:38:00.000Z-Anotherclown-2017-01-26T11:47:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-TomStar81-2017-01-26T15:14:00.000Z-TomStar81-2017-01-26T13:38:00.000Z"></span>Also, on a hunch, I <a class="external text" href="https://tools.wmflabs.org/xtools/pcount/index.php?user=TomStar81&project=en.wikipedia.org">used the edit count tool</a> on my account; I'm not really seeing anything in 2009 I contributed to, but others may have different luck.

You could have asked why I asked for scrutiny, before getting on your low horse. I reverted the edit several times because at first I assumed it was a mistake, then assumed that someone digging in his/her heels. I changed my approach and attempted to discuss it on the userpage but got nowhere so copied into the Bir Hakeim talk page for page watchers to see it. Several people joined in and did some reverts but then I decided that after changing my approach twice, I needed to avoid the risk of censure for revert frenzy. I asked for an outside opinion ("Req admin scrutiny") which created a conflict of interest so bowed out. I used the term admin because I thought that it was the right word, if I was wrong, put me right; Cinderella157 had been making a lot of constructive criticism lately and I find it a breath of fresh air. You wrote "Hard to AGF....", I suggest that you could try harder and easily emulate Cinders if you want to. As for admin bias in <i>my favour</i>, it would make a pleasant change but I prefer fair play.

Yes I agree that the two articles could be expanded along the lines you suggest. I also note, however, that the Fort Smith article has room for expansion, too. The lead could be expanded a bit more to summarise the entire article, while the Aftermath in particular is very short and could be expanded to discuss casualties and subsequent events in more detail. Anyway, thanks for your efforts. If you do choose to expand the articles further, you might consider <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:PR" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:PR">peer review</a> to help gain some more ideas and oversight. Also, you might consider listing them for re-assessment at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:MHA" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:MHA">WP:MHA</a> once you have expanded them.

The closer redirected that page to this one. I tagged the first line in this article as needing a citation and have thrice brought it up on the talk page. Can anybody source it? One of the key claims against the article <a href="/wiki/Submarine_ace" class="mw-redirect" title="Submarine ace">submarine ace</a> was that it was SYNTH and OR because no discussion of the <i>concept</i> beyond the briefest snippet here and there could be found, although the term itself is widely used in reliable sources. It is extremely ironic that the article to which that one was redirected appears to base its very definition on SYNTH and OR. Obviously, if historians can talk of air aces, U-boat aces and tank aces, there can be many different kinds of ace, and it isn't hard to see what these aces have in common. But that is textbook OR. All the quotes yet cited that seem to talk about aces in general (including the second sentence in the lead) are talking about flying aces only.

This IP also introduced some badly formatted nonsense paragraphs which (s)he copied from some internet web-blogs and forums (achtungpanzer.com, feldgrau.com). Every attempt to somehow straighten that gets reverted. After a lot of tries the IP improved the formatting, but the sources are still bad, it is still directly copied from those webpages and there are still spelling errors. And now he is stalking my previously edited articles and messes them up by deleting material and stuff. -_- <a href="/wiki/User:Dead_Mary" title="User:Dead Mary">Dead Mary</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Dead_Mary" title="User talk:Dead Mary">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Dead_Mary-2017-02-02T23:46:00.000Z-Unit_names_in_German_or_English?" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:46, 2 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Dead_Mary-2017-02-02T23:46:00.000Z-Unit_names_in_German_or_English?"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Dead_Mary-2017-02-02T23:46:00.000Z-Unit_names_in_German_or_English?"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-70.26.44.231-2017-02-03T00:05:00.000Z-Dead_Mary-2017-02-02T23:46:00.000Z"></span>Pal, as you suggested, rudely, I have corrected the spelling. I have added useful information to the article which in 2 cases I have cited thrice. The formatting is absolutely fine, and the info therein is useful to the context of the article. Upon seeing other pages you boasted about on your page, it became clear to me that your forte is NOT writing in the English language, which you admit is not your first language. So I endeavored to improve those pages by editing out the superfluous and redundant verbiage and making them read more smoothly and elegantly. Less is more. As for the information from achtungpanzer.com and feldgrau.com, in my opinion very useful stuff which somebody must have taken time and trouble to make accessible, freely, to the world wide web, SHOW ME how it is in error or wrong. Don't bother. The answer is you can't. STOP taking OWNERSHIP of the articles you mentioned, they aren't yours. <small class="autosigned">— Preceding <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Signatures" title="Wikipedia:Signatures">unsigned</a> comment added by <a href="/w/index.php?title=User:70.26.44.231&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User:70.26.44.231 (page does not exist)">70.26.44.231 </a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:70.26.44.231#top" title="User talk:70.26.44.231">talk</a> • <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/70.26.44.231" title="Special:Contributions/70.26.44.231">contribs</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-70.26.44.231-2017-02-03T00:05:00.000Z-Dead_Mary-2017-02-02T23:46:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:05, 3 February 2017 (UTC)</a></small><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-70.26.44.231-2017-02-03T00:05:00.000Z-Dead_Mary-2017-02-02T23:46:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-70.26.44.231-2017-02-03T00:05:00.000Z-Dead_Mary-2017-02-02T23:46:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-AustralianRupert-2017-02-03T02:28:00.000Z-70.26.44.231-2017-02-03T00:05:00.000Z"></span>I have semi protected the article for one week to prevent edit warring.

Although I've been able to contribute a lot from this book, there's still a lot missing from this article in my opinion. Aside from the obvious in the form of the Citation Needed tags, I feel that the Operational History for the type still isn't up to scratch, which is where I felt that some here might find the topic appealing. Almost ten years ago, a editor pointed out on the talk page that the Vampire's extensive combat history on the Middle East, with operators such as Jordan and Egypt, was barely being touched on, and it hasn't come far in that time at all. </p><p>Sadly my book didn't cover much on this topic, and I do plan to seek out other literature in the future that could fill in more of the different nation's histories of using the type, but perhaps someone here already has a good source on hand that they could share, or could do their own searches. I'd like to bring the standard and scope of content on the article more in line with that of the <a href="/wiki/Gloster_Meteor" title="Gloster Meteor">Gloster Meteor</a> if that is possible, it's a lofty goal if possible, but users have been able to make a substantial difference already in the last 12 months, so I'm sure improvements won't be impossible so long as editors are inclined to give it attention.

Beyond adding more from this book, I could flesh out the Australian section of the Vampire article with some other sources, although I'd be concerned that it would overbalance the article if the other countries' sections were not similarly enhanced.

A term more often used in the United Kingdom to describe such a force is a navy possessing maritime expeditionary capabilities.</i> Those navies may be less powerful then decades ago but that doesn´t change their nature.

And how do you come to the suspection that it borrows from the series? The notes don´t say so. It resembles the scene as it has the same detailed source material; Winters report as leading participant and Ambrose's work - who made it together with the other vets. It was a very small action with very few people in a very hectic environment and there most likely are no other detailed sources but Winters and Ambrose, as simple as that.

Not just ISIS or al-Qaeda, but other militants like Boko Haram and the IRA as well. I'm wondering because I was reading about the Provisional IRA, and there was no tag for our project despite the IRA being classified as a 'paramilitary terrorist cell'. I then proceeded to venture to the page on ISIS, which had no tag either, even though ISIS is a recognized militarized jihadist group. I think they should be included if not already. Because each group has been a belligerent in one or more wars.

Then he proceeded to IP hop to Sheffield, EN. Then there were a ton of them in Spain and one in... Japan? The possible IP is located in Paris, France, which could be an IP hop but I'm unsure. A CheckUser scan wouldn't hurt, because this user has a history of IP hopping and sockpuppetry with unregistered IPs.

CheckUser is a tool used in sockpuppet cases to determine whether a person is a sock or not. I don't know how it works because you need to be authorized to use it as it gives out private, possibly personal information, but it's normally not required for a case as administrators and passing users can usually discern between socks and innocents. Also, by the way, I'm in DMs with a former sockpuppet and he said that he would make an account and wait 90 days. CU throws away all the data after 90 days, making it harder to catch someone. I don't know if it's necessary in this situation; you might want to consult an administrator and open a sockpuppet case.

WW1 filling factory (NTWF Erith) was added adjacent to Thames Munition Works, and was a separate entity. It appears the NTWF Erith later became ill-fated W.V. Gilbert and had no direct business connection to Armstrongs-Vickers. </p><p>Cambridge University archives suggest that Thames Ammunitions Works Ltd. operated as an autonomous business within the Armstrongs-Vickers conglomerate. MBE honours are public data, and some of its engineers were sufficiently noted to receive MBEs. The site was built on River Darent, and according to one museum the company catalogue advertised shells featuring "Darent Thermite"; which implies to me that the site developed its own explosives or had some kind of R&D unit. Most of the information seems to be in paper archives that are split between various museums and Cambridge University. Not enough online to write a Wikipedia article with citations. </p><p>Armstrongs-Vickers ran into trouble around 1962 and the site closed, suggesting to me that Thames Munition Works was then a shrinking business. Perhaps there was no longer a demand for big warship shells, or perhaps its R&D unit wasn't very good, or perhaps explosives and suburbia don't mix? All speculation of course. There is no reason to think the engineers were not relocated to another company. The books suggested above provide just brief mentions that generate more speculation than they remove.

One exception seems to be quotes in the lead, which, last time I checked, should always be cited even if the quote and the citation are repeated in the main body. Another exception that I've found to be acceptable because I've done it myself in ACR/FAC nominations, is when a useful bit of info just doesn't seem to fit chronologically in the main narrative, such as a nickname that a soldier received but no source states when; those I mention and cite only in the lead or infobox, and it's never been an issue.

An example is the number of victims in the infobox in <a href="/wiki/Jasenovac_concentration_camp" title="Jasenovac concentration camp">Jasenovac concentration camp</a>, which is subject to almost weekly changes, I'm sure it would be much worse if there weren't citations there. Before an article gets to GA, having citations in the lead can resolve disputes until the article body is better developed and cited. An example of this would be <a href="/wiki/Josip_Broz_Tito" title="Josip Broz Tito">Josip Broz Tito</a>. Mind you, at GA I wouldn't expect a lot of citations in the lead or infobox, as everything should be cited in the body.

The sentence in question is <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">The Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross was awarded for a wide range of reasons and across all ranks, from a senior commander for skilled leadership of his troops in battle to a low-ranking soldier for a single act of extreme battlefield bravery.</span> That sentence is used in numerous lists, e.g. <a href="/wiki/List_of_Knight%27s_Cross_of_the_Iron_Cross_recipients_(O)" title="List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (O)">List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (O)</a>.

Quite often the lead section consists of only one other sentence, even if there is more defining information on the subject presented in the article. I consider that practice to be faulty for three reasons. </p> <ul><li>First, it has been established by historiographical research (Roman Töppel, Jens Westemeier) that the award of a KC depended on several variables, including favoritism. As Westemeier sums up, in spite of the official provisions subjective criteria prevailed. (<i>Himmlers Krieger</i>, 2014, p. 356).</li> <li>Second, it is thus against <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NPOV" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NPOV">WP:NPOV</a> to assume as fact that the KC was awarded for "successful military leadership" and so forth. Not only is this language peppered with <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:PEA" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:PEA">Peacock words</a> to be avoided according to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:INTRO" class="mw-disambig" title="Wikipedia:INTRO">WP:INTRO</a>. It - normally - goes without saying that the sources, upon which these "extreme" assessments are based, are biased.</li> <li>Third, according to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:LEAD" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:LEAD">WP:LEAD</a> the lead summarizes the article's "most important contents". The official provisions of the KC might be featured in articles about the KC, but a broad standard sentence without specific details as to why the KC was awarded to the subject of the article makes no sense. Instead it is used to purvey a certain positive image.</li></ul> <p>So I am looking for input of the MilHistProject if that is the idea.--<a href="/wiki/User:Assayer" title="User:Assayer">Assayer</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Assayer" title="User talk:Assayer">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Assayer-2017-02-13T04:38:00.000Z-Standardized_general_information_about_the_Knight's_Cross_in_lead_sections_of_ar" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">04:38, 13 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Assayer-2017-02-13T04:38:00.000Z-Standardized_general_information_about_the_Knight's_Cross_in_lead_sections_of_ar"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Assayer-2017-02-13T04:38:00.000Z-Standardized_general_information_about_the_Knight's_Cross_in_lead_sections_of_ar"></span> </p> <dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-GraemeLeggett-2017-02-13T11:29:00.000Z-Assayer-2017-02-13T04:38:00.000Z"></span>As you have presented it, it does sound like a lot of text to be put in a lead.

Since it is often argued that soldiers of Nazi Germany should be treated neutral, i.e. not differently from other nation's soldiers, I checked upon several <i>Medal of Honor</i>-, <i>Hero of the Soviet Union</i>- and <i>Pour le Mérite</i>-recipients and didn't find "general information" such as with the KC-recipients. I do not think that there is something important missing from those articles, but neither do I see a reason why the "extreme battlefield bravery or successful military leadership" of German WW II-soldiers should be emphasized.

Given that these FAs have generally gone through ACR as well, I think we can say that a great many in the MilHist and general WP community don't see such a description as NPOV or peacock, but as reasonable and helpful to the reader. So I don't think we can say that German soldiers are being portrayed in an unusually favourable way by including such a description. There may be room to tweak the precise wording of the Knight's Cross description that's generally employed, but I don't think there's a good case to remove it entirely.

I was going to raise examples of bios of VC and MoH recipients as well as recipients of other awards like the Legion of Merit (US) and knighthoods etc. The basic information about what the award was for is intrinsic to mentioning it. You don't just say he was awarded the VC, you say what the award was, for those that don't know. It is basic encyclopaedic information. Also, whether you are aware of it or not, all military and other awards are subject to various "political" restrictions, personal influences/preferences of nominating officers and others in the chain of command, approving officers etc, not just the KC. In Australia, the final "end of war list" of decorations for a battle that occurred in 1966 were only sorted out last year, and the final report made it clear that the recipients that were upgraded were originally "hard done by" via the chain of command, for a range of reasons. I'm happy to discuss the exact wording of the sentence that says what the purpose of the award was, but removal of it completely is contrary to the encyclopaedic purpose of WP. I also question why you think "extreme battlefield bravery or successful military leadership" of German WWII soldiers shouldn't be emphasised, where we do emphasise it with soldiers of other armies. That would create significant systemic bias on en WP. Is German bravery or leadership "unworthy" of being mentioned on WP for some reason? Or do you think it is all made up? If so, on what basis? There is a lot of narrow, "black and white" thinking behind this campaign against the KC on en WP. There were plenty of alleged and actual war criminals in the German Army and Waffen-SS, but I am sure that some of those who were convicted war criminals also fought bravely or led skilfully. The two aren't mutually exclusive. We compare and contrast the good and bad in biographical articles, we don't just eliminate the good because of the bad. Of course there are also those that didn't commit war crimes, what of them? <a href="/wiki/User:Peacemaker67" title="User:Peacemaker67">Peacemaker67</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Peacemaker67" title="User talk:Peacemaker67">click to talk to me</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-13T23:25:00.000Z-Ian_Rose-2017-02-13T22:57:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:25, 13 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-13T23:25:00.000Z-Ian_Rose-2017-02-13T22:57:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-13T23:25:00.000Z-Ian_Rose-2017-02-13T22:57:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Assayer-2017-02-14T19:54:00.000Z-Peacemaker67-2017-02-13T23:25:00.000Z"></span>We all know that Wikipedia is not to 100 percent consistent and that two wrongs don't make a right. I am not targeting KC recipients in particular, if that's what you think, but happen to work on German military history. I think it is fair to say that such a general phrase being used in biographical articles is not the common standard. Since we are talking about a sort of standard phrase, I would rather suspect that its use stems from personal preferences of individual authors. The article of <a href="/wiki/Desiderius_Hampel" title="Desiderius Hampel">Desiderius Hampel</a>, for example, existed for years without that sentence, until Peacemaker67 added it about two months ago.<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Desiderius_Hampel&diff=next&oldid=750477843">[7]</a> The articles on the VC recipients actually reinforce my point, because many of those have been "migrated from the Victoria Cross Reference with permission." That website's POV has been described in 2001 as "a sobering tribute to the men who have won the highest decoration for gallantry that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces. [...] The story of each act of bravery is detailed online and the matter-of-fact prose serves only to emphasize the courage of the men who fought." (<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/reviews/4766444/Netlife-Victoria-Cross-Reference-website.html">The Telegraph, 2001</a>)</dd> <dd>There is a basic misunderstanding in Peacemaker67's argument: We are not talking about <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">"extreme battlefield bravery or successful military leadership" of German WWII soldiers</span>, but we are talking about how we are presenting the fact that someone has received a KC in his biographical article. As Peacemaker himself rightly explains <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">all military and other awards are subject to various "political" restrictions, personal influences/preferences of nominating officers and others in the chain of command, approving officers etc,</span> In other words, we may all agree, that bravery exists and is exhibited with or without being honored by a military award. We cannot assume, however, that each and every award is awarded for bravery or exceptional leadership skills. But by the use of <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WEASEL" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:WEASEL">weasel words</a> and peacock terms that is excactly what is suggested to the reader: First sentence: Hampel has received a KC. Second sentence: A KC was awarded for skilled leadership of his troops in battle. Reader's conclusion: Hampel has exhibited skilled leadership in battle. Why else would he have received a KC? There are no RS for such a conclusion, though. As a matter of fact, we don't know if he received a KC after all, let alone for what reasons, but that's another issue. So neither <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">Is German bravery or leadership "unworthy" of being mentioned on WP for some reason</span>, nor do I think <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">it is all made up</span> , but I demand RS for such claims, not a carte blanche based upon the KC. That would be "white thinking", so to speak, and the award of a KC is not a RS by itself. (I can offer a number of examples, if needed.)</dd> <dd>Wikipedia is based on hypertext and uses internal links to guide the reader to the information he desires or needs for a deeper understanding of the topic. Those who don't know what a certain award was can find these information by following the link to the article on the award. They do not need an explanation in each and every article of each and every recipient. That's the whole idea behind internal links. As soon as you read more than one of those articles that also becomes repetitive and tedious, btw. Thus individual articles need not to be stuffed with broad and vague information, but they need specific information based upon RS.--<a href="/wiki/User:Assayer" title="User:Assayer">Assayer</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Assayer" title="User talk:Assayer">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Assayer-2017-02-14T19:54:00.000Z-Peacemaker67-2017-02-13T23:25:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">19:54, 14 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Assayer-2017-02-14T19:54:00.000Z-Peacemaker67-2017-02-13T23:25:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Assayer-2017-02-14T19:54:00.000Z-Peacemaker67-2017-02-13T23:25:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="outdent-template" style="position:relative;left:1px;"><span style="display:block;width:16em;height:0.5em;border-bottom:1px solid #a2a9b1;border-right:1px solid #a2a9b1;"></span><span style="display:block;width:16em;height:0.5em;border-left:1px solid #a2a9b1;"></span></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Assayer-2017-02-18T20:56:00.000Z-Standardized_general_information_about_the_Knight's_Cross_in_lead_sections_of_ar"></span>Since this discussion has stalled, I would like to determine, if there are still objections to remove those standard phrases from individual biographical articles.

The names are not consistent in official documents defining the "corps" (not to mention those that don't have "corps" in their names). They may be Foo Corps, Corps of Foo, Army Corps of Foo or United States Army Corps of Foo, ad infinitum. I guess the discussion should be whether standardization overrides RS. Perhaps the best way to recognize this is by using a category to include these variations under one umbrella. --<a href="/wiki/User:Lineagegeek" title="User:Lineagegeek">Lineagegeek</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Lineagegeek" title="User talk:Lineagegeek">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Lineagegeek-2017-02-17T00:56:00.000Z-21lima-2017-02-15T16:14:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:56, 17 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Lineagegeek-2017-02-17T00:56:00.000Z-21lima-2017-02-15T16:14:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Lineagegeek-2017-02-17T00:56:00.000Z-21lima-2017-02-15T16:14:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-21lima-2017-02-17T01:50:00.000Z-Lineagegeek-2017-02-17T00:56:00.000Z"></span>These are all branches of the US Army, so I don't see the need for separate categories.

Not everything in an article has to be notable in and of itself, or go to the notability of the subject. Once the notability of the subject of the article has been established (ie why they are notable, why we have an article on them), then all relevant detail on the person should be included, so long as it can be reliably sourced. That includes date/place of birth and death, what wars they fought in etc, not just the war for which they are notable. If (as is often the case), a WWII general served in WWI (usually at a much lower rank), that is information that should be in the infobox and in the article, as it is relevant biographical information. <a href="/wiki/User:Peacemaker67" title="User:Peacemaker67">Peacemaker67</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Peacemaker67" title="User talk:Peacemaker67">click to talk to me</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-12T01:04:00.000Z-GELongstreet-2017-02-11T19:34:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">01:04, 12 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-12T01:04:00.000Z-GELongstreet-2017-02-11T19:34:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-12T01:04:00.000Z-GELongstreet-2017-02-11T19:34:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-ÄDA_-_DÄP-2017-02-12T06:02:00.000Z-Peacemaker67-2017-02-12T01:04:00.000Z"></span>Of course all information should be recorded. In the article, not the infobox. The infobox is for a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:SS" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:SS">summary</a>. In the case at hand - <a href="/wiki/Hans_Cramer" title="Hans Cramer">Hans Cramer</a> - it is redundant to list the Deutsches Heer or Reichswehr because it is clear from the years of service that Cramer served in the army throughout his career. For the same reason it is only necessary to list the Knight's Cross, because that implies he was awarded both classes of the Iron Cross, too.

You take birth and death places and service in different armed forces and wars and delete those, saying that it´s either not sourced, not written in the article itself or simply not notable - which there are very different opinions about and the non-notability is not agreed on as some others have written above. Kinda like you did with the respective medals&awards sections before - whose existence countered your "comical situation" of infoboxes longer than articles. One could have improved many of those articles with a fraction of that effort that you put into deleting but it doesn´t happen. Guess it´s pretty clear that I´m no wiki-deletionist. You´re doing that on a pretty large scale and interestingly it seems that this happens almost only to German WW2 soldiers. That´s why I say Nazi-hunt. I know that the creation of many of those stubs were a rather ambiguous thing and know that they´re far from good. But in my opinion you´re not making them better, you´re making them worse by deleting important information and making what stands there practically wrong. I think the lack of acknowlegement to previous armed forces and services is unwarranted and ill-placed for articles about military history in general and in this infobox in particular. I think you´re, basically, limiting it to "He was a Nazi-soldier, that´s all that needs to be in the article."

Is it worth taking this to AfD?--<span style="background:#C2C2C2"><a href="/wiki/User:Gaarmyvet" title="User:Gaarmyvet"><span style="color:red;"><b>Jim in Georgia</b></span> </a><a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Gaarmyvet" title="Special:Contributions/Gaarmyvet"><span style="color:white;"><i>Contribs</i></span> </a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Gaarmyvet" title="User talk:Gaarmyvet"><span style="color:blue;"><b>Talk</b></span></a> </span> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z-List_of_surviving_veterans_of_World_War_II" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">18:46, 22 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z-List_of_surviving_veterans_of_World_War_II"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z-List_of_surviving_veterans_of_World_War_II"></span> </p> <ul><li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Sturmvogel_66-2017-02-22T19:59:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span>Definitely, and the same for any other similar lists.--<a href="/wiki/User:Sturmvogel_66" title="User:Sturmvogel 66">Sturmvogel 66</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Sturmvogel_66" title="User talk:Sturmvogel 66">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Sturmvogel_66-2017-02-22T19:59:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">19:59, 22 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Sturmvogel_66-2017-02-22T19:59:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Sturmvogel_66-2017-02-22T19:59:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span></li> <li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-23T09:47:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span>Agree. <a href="/wiki/User:Peacemaker67" title="User:Peacemaker67">Peacemaker67</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Peacemaker67" title="User talk:Peacemaker67">click to talk to me</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-23T09:47:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">09:47, 23 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-23T09:47:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-23T09:47:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span></li> <li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-TomStar81-2017-02-23T09:55:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span>Agree with one asterisk: this list will have some utility as a function for determining the eventual <a href="/w/index.php?title=List_of_last_World_War_II_veterans_by_country&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="List of last World War II veterans by country (page does not exist)">List of last World War II veterans by country</a>, whose predecessor, the <a href="/wiki/List_of_last_World_War_I_veterans_by_country" class="mw-redirect" title="List of last World War I veterans by country">List of last World War I veterans by country</a> already exists and notes the last surviving veteran of World War I by country and the date they died, among other things. <a href="/wiki/User:TomStar81" title="User:TomStar81">TomStar81</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:TomStar81" title="User talk:TomStar81">Talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-TomStar81-2017-02-23T09:55:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">09:55, 23 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-TomStar81-2017-02-23T09:55:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-TomStar81-2017-02-23T09:55:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span></li></ul> <dl><dd><ul><li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-23T10:05:00.000Z-TomStar81-2017-02-23T09:55:00.000Z"></span>I'm not so sure. This seems to be a list of "notable" surviving veterans. It seems inevitable that the last survivor will have been an underage rating, private or airman, someone highly unlikely to have been notable except for surviving longest after the war. That was the case with WWI, and I see no reason to think it will be any different with WWII. In my hometown, a state capital, 150 WWII veterans marched on ANZAC Day last year. Of them, maybe two would meet WP:SOLDIER. <a href="/wiki/User:Peacemaker67" title="User:Peacemaker67">Peacemaker67</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Peacemaker67" title="User talk:Peacemaker67">click to talk to me</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-23T10:05:00.000Z-TomStar81-2017-02-23T09:55:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">10:05, 23 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-23T10:05:00.000Z-TomStar81-2017-02-23T09:55:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-23T10:05:00.000Z-TomStar81-2017-02-23T09:55:00.000Z"></span></li></ul></dd></dl> <ul><li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Mztourist-2017-02-23T10:46:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span>Agree. <a href="/wiki/User:Mztourist" title="User:Mztourist">Mztourist</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Mztourist" title="User talk:Mztourist">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Mztourist-2017-02-23T10:46:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">10:46, 23 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Mztourist-2017-02-23T10:46:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Mztourist-2017-02-23T10:46:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span></li> <li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-23T14:56:00.000Z-Gaarmyvet-2017-02-22T18:46:00.000Z"></span>Comment. I agree with utility of a list of the last surviving veteran (apparently from the talk page of the list in question there's some question about the propriety of the term "veteran") of each country. There are about nine hundred people on the current list.

This matter has come up before, and nearly always was the result of strong personal feelings about whether Wikipedia should include lists of ranks and awards for Nazi personnel. There was recently a very heated and lengthy discussion at <a href="/wiki/Talk:Karl_Wolff#Awards_removal" title="Talk:Karl Wolff">Talk:Karl_Wolff#Awards_removal</a> and now the issue has come up again at <a href="/wiki/Talk:Theodor_Eicke#Removal_of_dates_of_rank_and_awards" title="Talk:Theodor Eicke">Talk:Theodor_Eicke#Removal_of_dates_of_rank_and_awards</a>. An older discussion can be found <a href="/wiki/Talk:Heinrich_Himmler/Archive_2#Himmler_Awards_and_Ranks_Section" title="Talk:Heinrich Himmler/Archive 2">here</a> and there was also one several years back on <a href="/wiki/Talk:Reinhard_Heydrich/Archive_3#Notable_decorations" title="Talk:Reinhard Heydrich/Archive 3">Talk:Reinhard_Heydrich/Archive_3#Notable_decorations</a>. Third party comments are needed from some experienced editors as this issue continues and is leading to a lot of removal of cited material about Nazi awards and ranks from military articles. -<a href="/wiki/User:OberRanks" title="User:OberRanks">O.R.</a><sup><a href="/wiki/User_talk:OberRanks" title="User talk:OberRanks"><i>Comms</i></a></sup> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-OberRanks-2017-02-23T04:25:00.000Z-Removing_awards_and_rank_lists_from_SS_articles" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">04:25, 23 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-OberRanks-2017-02-23T04:25:00.000Z-Removing_awards_and_rank_lists_from_SS_articles"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-OberRanks-2017-02-23T04:25:00.000Z-Removing_awards_and_rank_lists_from_SS_articles"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Kierzek-2017-02-23T14:39:00.000Z-OberRanks-2017-02-23T04:25:00.000Z"></span>I know I am repeating myself but, "...especially for high ranking members, awards and decorations should be included; and given [they are bio articles]... it is reasonable to include for that reason, as well. Like everything being considered for inclusion or to be removed, discernment should be used. It is fair that they be cited". With that said, just removing in mass is not the answer, either. At least, if in question, a cn should be placed next to the subject rank, award or medal in an article and it should remain for a reasonable timeframe. Being a volunteer project and having to work long hours, I for one, cannot go around and add cites to all these articles; as I am sure we all don't have the time.

Second, a career in the SS should not be conflated with a career in the military. The SS, including the Waffen-SS, was basically a Nazi party organization and not part of the Wehrmacht. Third, speaking of verifiability those career sections seem quite often to be based upon primary sources like personal files hosted at archives.

To suggest that the Waffen-SS was a just a political organisation and not a military one is contrary to the facts. But even if it was right, we would mark the progress of a union leader through various levels of their hierarchy, so we do that with these people too. I fail to see why anyone would wish to remove such basic biographical information from any article, assuming it can be reliably sourced. Eicke was a member of the Reichstag, so there is definitely information available on his various promotions both within the SS then in the Waffen-SS, as well as other basic biographical info. <a href="/wiki/User:Peacemaker67" title="User:Peacemaker67">Peacemaker67</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Peacemaker67" title="User talk:Peacemaker67">click to talk to me</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-24T08:25:00.000Z-TomStar81-2017-02-24T06:14:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">08:25, 24 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-24T08:25:00.000Z-TomStar81-2017-02-24T06:14:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Peacemaker67-2017-02-24T08:25:00.000Z-TomStar81-2017-02-24T06:14:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Kierzek-2017-02-24T13:51:00.000Z-Peacemaker67-2017-02-24T08:25:00.000Z"></span>I have to agree with Peacemaker67, to say the Waffen-SS was only a Nazi Party organization is just not correct. True, they were not legally part of the Wehrmacht, but it was a "de facto" branch in a practical sense. However, even if it was just a Nazi Party organization, akin to the <i>Allgemeine SS</i> or NSKK, the ranks and promotions obtained by the person should be listed. Especially for high ranking members. The major awards should be listed, as well. Again, as I have said before, in the end, it is reasonable for the info to be RS sourced somewhere in the article. It is too bad that for some of these articles, when editors were adding such information originally, the sources they were using for said information was not added then. It seems that some of the information was written at a time when RS citing was not such a requirement on Wikipedia. <a href="/wiki/User:Kierzek" title="User:Kierzek">Kierzek</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Kierzek" title="User talk:Kierzek">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Kierzek-2017-02-24T13:51:00.000Z-Peacemaker67-2017-02-24T08:25:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">13:51, 24 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Kierzek-2017-02-24T13:51:00.000Z-Peacemaker67-2017-02-24T08:25:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Kierzek-2017-02-24T13:51:00.000Z-Peacemaker67-2017-02-24T08:25:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Assayer-2017-02-24T18:13:00.000Z-Kierzek-2017-02-24T13:51:00.000Z"></span>With all this persistent talk about a <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">particular group of Wikipedia editors [...] focused solely on blanking this material from only SS articles</span> I might as well turn the tables and speak of a particular group of Wikipedia editors who are focused upon adding that material to SS articles. But I will try to make my concerns clear. The SS was not merely a paramilitary organization. It was also a party organization and an intelligence agency. It staffed the concentration camps and built a major industrial complex. Himmler allotted it police powers and tried to merge it with the regular police. He saw the Waffen-SS as a nucleus of a future pan-European Germanic army. My point is not, <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">to suggest that the Waffen-SS was just a political organization</span>. (But keep in mind the title of Bernd Wegner's seminal work <i>Hitler's political soldiers</i>.) Rather I am strongly opposed to suggest that the Waffen-SS was a military organization like any other, because that is a major apologetic rationale. It is misleading to focus upon a "practical sense", because the very definition of "being a branch" goes beyond that. The difference between Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS was both programmatic and practical. In the words of Eicke: "We do not carry weapons to appear like the army, but to use them, when <i>Führer</i> and movement are in danger." (<i>Wir tragen keine Waffen, um dem Heere ähnlich zusehen, sondern um sie zu gebrauchen, wenn Führer und Bewegung in Gefahr sind.</i>) Himmler was very careful to preserve the organizational distance between Waffen-SS and army. He planned, as he expressed in his Posen speech of 3 August 1944, to organize a Nazi people's army through the SS some time in the future. Thus it doesn't matter whether the Waffen-SS fought side by side with the Wehrmacht. The formal, organizational, ideological and programmatical differences prevail, not to mention the competition for resources and the often mutual distaste. The Waffen-SS was a branch of the SS, not of the Wehrmacht.</dd> <dd>I have no problem to feature information on careers in biographical articles. I routinely add them myself. I am questioning the way these information are presented. Eicke is a good case in point, because his SS career was a twisted one and has to be put into context. But even that he was a member of the Reichtag, for example, isn't mentioned in the article. Besides, it is problematic to create such rank lists only from the SSO files. That is a primary source which needs to be interpreted. The same is true with the <a href="/wiki/Dienstalterslisten_der_SS" title="Dienstalterslisten der SS">Dienstalterslisten der SS</a> and the <i>SS-Stammrollen</i>. By that I do not wish to imply that those are unreliable sources by the odd Wikipedian definition. But to use them is <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:OR" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:OR">WP:OR</a> and I am sceptical that anonymous Wikipedia editors are fully qualified to use these files properly. In fact, some dates given in the English Wikipedia differ from the dates given in secondary literature such as Joachim Lilla, <i>Statisten in Uniform</i> (2004). Editors who add such information based on archival documents are certainly advised to add the source of that information. But they are also liable to be challenged for <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:OR" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:OR">WP:OR</a>. In short, I am arguing for a contextualized presentation of the information based upon secondary literature, instead of a mere decorative listing based upon primary sources.--<a href="/wiki/User:Assayer" title="User:Assayer">Assayer</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Assayer" title="User talk:Assayer">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Assayer-2017-02-24T18:13:00.000Z-Kierzek-2017-02-24T13:51:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">18:13, 24 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Assayer-2017-02-24T18:13:00.000Z-Kierzek-2017-02-24T13:51:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Assayer-2017-02-24T18:13:00.000Z-Kierzek-2017-02-24T13:51:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-83.20.105.165-2017-03-01T19:28:00.000Z-Assayer-2017-02-24T18:13:00.000Z"></span>Assayer hits on a key point here, and it addresses more than just SS or Knight's Cross winners military biography articles in en.wikipedia -- German military personnel biographies are incomplete in the sense that they focus almost exclusively on the Second World War activities of these men.

Whether intentional or not, such a bounded focus gives the impression that the only reason these articles exist is to celebrate the wartime experiences of selected German military personnel. <i>That</i> is not encyclopaedic and smells of "fan-boy" activity.

Of course there wouldn't be any mention of this post war, since the SS was gone and most of these men never served in the military again and had no post war military decorations. As far as post war information lacking from the articles in general, the majority of articles on the German military figures contain plenty of information about those who survived the war. For those who were in prison, who were executed, or died before the war was over, of course there wouldn't be very much. -<a href="/wiki/User:OberRanks" title="User:OberRanks">O.R.</a><sup><a href="/wiki/User_talk:OberRanks" title="User talk:OberRanks"><i>Comms</i></a></sup> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-OberRanks-2017-03-01T20:46:00.000Z-83.20.105.165-2017-03-01T19:28:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">20:46, 1 March 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-OberRanks-2017-03-01T20:46:00.000Z-83.20.105.165-2017-03-01T19:28:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-OberRanks-2017-03-01T20:46:00.000Z-83.20.105.165-2017-03-01T19:28:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd> <dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-217.96.246.122-2017-03-02T10:40:00.000Z-Assayer-2017-02-24T18:13:00.000Z"></span>"plenty of information" is only correct <i>in instances</i>.

(See <a href="/w/index.php?title=Service_record_of_Reinhard_Heydrich&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Service record of Reinhard Heydrich (page does not exist)">Service record of Reinhard Heydrich</a> as an example). That isn't Original Research, it is recording information from a service record as maintained in the personnel department of the organization. Also, the National Archives has a series of "Finding Aides" which actually have the biographical data already listed from the microfilm itself (they are typically not cited separately since the finding aid of a record group is considered part of the record group itself). In any event, to suggest that listing dates of rank taken off the front of a service record, maintained by the agency itself, requires any kind of interpretation doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Also, if you look back in the archives of this military history page, as well as few others, you will find <i>broad</i> consensus that information taken from military personnel records, especially documents like a <a href="/wiki/DD_Form_214" title="DD Form 214">DD Form 214</a>, is considered extremely reliable. National Archives Record Group 242 (Foreign records seized) has also been cited in numerous books, journal articles, research papers, and was a key source of material for evidence in war crimes trials.

That date is also given by Lilla. On 19 January 1932 he had been ordered to be Führer (<i>mit der Führung beauftragt</i>) of the SS-Sturm 2/II/I in Munich. As Jochen von Lang tells us, Wolff only became Führer of that SS-Sturm, because no leader of a higher rank was available. His promotion was delayed, however, because admission to the leader corps required certain proceedings. Heinrich Hoeflich wrote a recommendation on 20 January 1932 which was presented to the corps leadership on 22 March 1932. After endorsement the matter stuck on Hoeflich's desk until the end of June. For the personnel files the promotion was dated back to 18 February. (<i>Top Nazi</i>, 2013, pp. 7-9) So which one is the correct date? I would also have asked for an explanation of the different dates for certain promotions of Eicke given by Weise and Lilla on the one hand and English Wikipedia on the other, but as OberRanks has explained he will not have access to his files for some weeks. I think, however, that illustrates the problems of verifiability, and <i>published</i> vs <i>available to the public</i> quite nicely.--<a href="/wiki/User:Assayer" title="User:Assayer">Assayer</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Assayer" title="User talk:Assayer">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Assayer-2017-02-24T23:28:00.000Z-Sturmvogel_66-2017-02-24T20:23:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:28, 24 February 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Assayer-2017-02-24T23:28:00.000Z-Sturmvogel_66-2017-02-24T20:23:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Assayer-2017-02-24T23:28:00.000Z-Sturmvogel_66-2017-02-24T20:23:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Sturmvogel_66-2017-02-24T23:39:00.000Z-Assayer-2017-02-24T23:28:00.000Z"></span>Things like backdating promotions, etc. should be covered in the records; and since the records like the SS files in NARA are publicly available, I don't them see them as unpublished.

However, as we have seen in a recurring pattern, discussions like this will happen, people will cool down a bit, and then a few weeks will go by (or perhaps months) and then the same issue will come up again with a renewed round of removing SS rank and award material. The two schools of thought are that 1) rank and awards are allowed on Wikipedia as pertinent biographical material and 2) the material is related to Nazism and added dates and ranks generates undue weight. Some kind of common ground needs to be found so that this cycle does not keep happening over and over again.

Working on the article on Karl Wolff I found numerous errors and poor citations. Of course any article could use some additional work and as a collaborative project Wikipedia grows by the contributions of various individuals with different expertise. But before you can work on the details, you'll have to get the basics right. To discuss photographs of Wolff wearing uniforms seems to be intricate detail distracting from what he actually did while occupying key positions in the SS. Given the way Wolf is dealt with in historiography and the issues that are raised in historiography, I would even say it is utterly confusing that so much emphasis is put on such trivial issues. Someone, I believe it was Sturmvogel, has argued somewhere else, that Wikipedia was not only for the general public, but also for the specialists.

The discussion of medals and awards inadvertently adds an heroic dimension even to Theodor Eicke. Don't get me wrong. Niels Weise discusses the awards and promotions Eicke received, when he received it and why. So these things are important, as long as they are put into perspective.

That medals and awards convey the image of heroism is a staple of historical-sociological and cultural-anthropological analyses of the military and of heroism as a social construct. The notion that it is somewhat "disingenous" to call that practice by its name seems odd. Several editors have been outspoken of their intention to "let the Germans have their heroes". The idea that military biographies can be written objectively without any agenda except informing readers comprehensively on certain subjects is methodologically naĩve, a remnant from 19th century historicism. What I would call "disingenous", however, is the persistent attitude and talk by quite a few "veteran editors" that a critical approach towards certain literature and towards certain ways of presenting information, is somewhat suspicious, against consensus, tendentious, disruptive, anti-German, short of book burning, and so forth.

It's "Ike" Kepford in his White 29 F4U-1A. Kepford was a member of the VF-17 Jolly Rogers, a legendary land-based WWII squadron operating from Ondonga and Bougainville. Presently working on a page for him, since he's one of the highest-scoring US aces without an article. Another (worse, in my opinion) version of this image exists but it has the much better filename 'F4U-1A Corsair of VF-17 in flight in 1944.' Anyway, help is appreciated.

While researching for <a href="/wiki/Cannabis_in_Panama" title="Cannabis in Panama">Cannabis in Panama</a> I found mention that US troops were smoking marijuana in the Canal Zone as early as 1916, and the military did studies to figure out how detrimental it was or wasn't, concluding at the time it wasn't a big problem.

I'm reviewing <a href="/wiki/Naval_battles_of_the_American_Revolutionary_War" title="Naval battles of the American Revolutionary War">Naval battles of the American Revolutionary War</a>, where there has been a slow burning disagreement between several editors to the geographical scope of the article - should it focus on the events of the Atlantic Ocean, or extend more widely, for example to the Indian Ocean? This matters to my review, as it would determine if the article as it stands gives a reasonable coverage of the topic or not. I'm not a specialist in this period, and if anyone with more knowledge fancied leaving an opinion, I'd much certainly appreciate it. <a href="/wiki/User:Hchc2009" title="User:Hchc2009">Hchc2009</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Hchc2009" title="User talk:Hchc2009">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_138#c-Hchc2009-2017-03-20T20:37:00.000Z-Favour_to_ask_on_Naval_battles_of_the_American_Revolutionary_War..." class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">20:37, 20 March 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Hchc2009-2017-03-20T20:37:00.000Z-Favour_to_ask_on_Naval_battles_of_the_American_Revolutionary_War..."></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Hchc2009-2017-03-20T20:37:00.000Z-Favour_to_ask_on_Naval_battles_of_the_American_Revolutionary_War..."></span> </p> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Seraphimsystem-2017-03-20T22:09:00.000Z-Hchc2009-2017-03-20T20:37:00.000Z"></span>I'm more interested in American history then Naval history in particular, but my answer would be that it does not - I can see why its causing trouble since the <a href="/wiki/Anglo-French_War" class="mw-redirect" title="Anglo-French War">Anglo-French War</a> is the broader conflict for France, and likely why France intervened at all, but we are treating it as part of the American Revolutionary War.

Regardless of all that, it would be better if common terms could be found. I switched "France enters the theatre" to "France enters the war", while "port" and other synonyms can be used in place of harbo(u)r in a few places.
