Talk:Salamaua–Lae campaign

RE: Thomas Blamey
From the lede of the Thomas Blamey article: "Blamey also planned and carried out the significant and victorious Salamaua–Lae Campaign." In this article on the Salamaua–Lae Campaign he is hardly mentioned at all: only a neutral to somewhat negative mention in the aftermath section. Can some fine historian determine which of these articles is BS? (Sarcasm intended.)CactusFlower (talk) 22:36, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Repeating comment from talk:Thomas Blamey: I believe you have missed my sarcasm. Both of the articles appear to me (a non-military historian admittedly) as puff pieces. Please keep your puff pieces consistent mates. CactusFlower (talk) 22:24, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

Meters-feet conversion
"On 11 September, the 7th Division's 25th Infantry Brigade engaged about 200 Japanese soldiers entrenched at Jensen's Plantation in a firefight, at a range of 30 m (50 feet)." One foot is 30.48 centimetres, so 30 metres is approximately equivalent to 100 feet (98.425 feet, to be exact) while 50 feet is equivalent to 15.24 metres. Which figure is correct -- 30 m or 100 feet?--Death Bredon (talk) 19:54, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
 * G'day, Death Bredon, good catch -- I don't have access to the cited Buggy source, but the London Gazette citation states "50 yards", so I've changed it to that and have added the convert template to hopefully make the conversion more accurate.
