138th (Lincoln and Leicester) Brigade
Hello. Your latest addition to 138th (Lincoln and Leicester) Brigade is incomplete. The second paragraph ends mid-sentence. Can you finish it? Hamish59 (talk) 20:41, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Sometimes I do that if I don't have enough time to finish it all or just about to go out, sorry for any inconvenience
 * No need to apologise, but better not to rush things.

WP:NOTBROKEN
Berserker276, can I ask you to read WP:NOTBROKEN, please. You seem to be making unnecessary changes to articles. For example, there is absolutely no need to change Hampshire Regiment to Hampshire Regiment as you did recently in 134th (2/1st Hampshire) Brigade as the link will go to the right place. Although it is very unlikely that Royal Hampshire Regiment and Hampshire Regiment will be split into separate articles, there are other cases where this may happen.

Recent edit to 214th Infantry Brigade (United Kingdom)
Hello, and thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to the 214th Infantry Brigade (United Kingdom) article. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. Thank you!

Articles require references
I appreciate your contributions to the Wikipedia; however, one of the key policies of the English language Wikipedia is verifiability. This means that the information in articles must be sourced from reliable sources. Your recent effort at 3rd (Royal Northumberland Fusiliers) Reconnaissance Regiment lacked any references. Please try to provide citations to reliable sources for any material that you add to the Wikipedia. Thanks. --Bejnar (talk) 06:29, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

East Lancashire Regiment / Accrington Pals
Berserker276, I note that you have made some additions to "The Accrington Pals" section of the East Lancashire Regiment article. Do you think it would be a good idea to hive this section off to Accrington Pals? The section is a little overwhelming of the World War I section. What do you think? Hamish59 (talk) 18:20, 23 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Hamish59, this is my first time talking to anybody and I'm rarely on my laptop to reply on here so forgive me if it takes a while for a reply. And to answer your question, I was intending to create a new article specifically about the Accrington Pals but I'm unsure of how to do so. Also, for the page 148th Infantry Brigade (United Kingdom) I was hoping to upload an image worn by the brigade in World War II but, again, I'm unsure of how to do so. Could you help me please? Thank you in advance


 * Berserker276, I cannot help you with images, I am afraid. It is not something I have done before.  As to Accrington Pals - there is already an "article" for this which merely redirects back to the East Lancashire Regiment.  Bear with me, I will make a start - basically chop the bit our of East Lancashire Regiment and paste into Accrington Pals.  (By the way, I have added a ":" to your message to indent it - makes it easier to see show is saying what.)  Hamish59 (talk) 18:00, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
 * OK, have a look at Accrington Pals. Much work to be done - very little of the original text is cited, for example.  Hamish59 (talk) 19:35, 24 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Hamish59, the image thing seems complicated to me, I don't understand it at all but that may be just because I'm generally terrible with computers and technology, which is surprising for a 22-year old.


 * Hamish59, good work, my original idea was just to use the same text as was shown on the original page
 * That would not have worked. The text was upmerged from Accrington Pals in September 2012 (have a look at the edit history) so would have just been upmerged again.  Hamish59 (talk) 21:27, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

Eighth Army (United Kingdom)
Berserker276, regarding your recent edit to Eighth Army (United Kingdom). Can you show a reliable source to say that it was ever officially called "British Eighth Army"? Joslen, for example, always says "Eighth Army". Hamish59 (talk) 16:55, 29 July 2015 (UTC)

Bare urls
Berserker276, I note that you have made some edits to 168th (2nd London) Brigade. It has a lot of bare URLs which can lead to link rot. Can you use full citations? I have done one so you can see what is needed. Hamish59 (talk) 16:17, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Hamish59, fair enough I'll try and do that but may I ask you a question? Why do you include at the top of the page 'History' and reduce the edit sections in size? If that makes sense
 * Thanks for that, Berserker276. Sorry, but I do not understand your question.  Hamish59 (talk) 17:17, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

By that I mean the 'History' section heading was size 2 yet now it's not, the order of battle is now 'first world war order of battle' etc.
 * OK., got it. I have added a bit of structure - "Formation", "WWI", "inter-war", "WWII", "post-war" are all part of the history of the brigade, hence put them together in a "History" section.  Also, sections and sub-sections should have unique names
 * Section and subsection headings should preferably be unique within a page; otherwise section links may lead to the wrong place, and automatic edit summaries can be ambiguous.
 * per MOS:SECTIONS. Hamish59 (talk) 17:58, 2 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Hamish59, okay but I'm not too sure on how to avoid the link rot with the bare URLs, and isn't the history of the brigade sort of explained at the very beginning of the page? It mentions what conflict it was involved in, what unit it was assigned to etc.
 * That is the whole point: bare urls lead to link rot, whereas properly formatted citations don't. For example
 * http://www.1914-1918.net/london.htm
 * is a bare url, whereas
 * is better as, for example, if the original link disappears, a search of a web archive for 2 August 2015 will find it. So,
 * https://web.archive.org/web/20150508193552/http://1914-1918.net/london.htm
 * or
 * or


 * The article lede (or lead) section should be a summary of the article. Hamish59 (talk) 19:27, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

169th (3rd London) Brigade
So, why have you changed the structure of 169th (3rd London) Brigade? Hamish59 (talk) 08:11, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

I've changed it simply because it just seems to look far better on the page than it does with the other structure where it just, in my personal opinion, looks quite untidy
 * Have a look at 173rd Airborne Brigade Combat Team a Featured Article considered to be the best articles in Wikipedia; they must pass through a review process as featured article candidates before being selected or 1st Provisional Marine Brigade an A-Class article while not as rigorously reviewed as featured articles, are nevertheless considered to provide a well-written and complete treatment of the topic; they pass through a review process within the project before being selected. Hamish59 (talk) 20:26, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

I've read both articles and they're both very good, and I just wanted to apologise for possibly coming off as arrogant with the structure of the pages, and also to thank you (was it you?) for bringing the linkrot to my attention Berserker276 (talk) 21:01, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Not a problem. If the structure looks awkward, perhaps considering separating the "Order of Battle" sub-sections and the "Commanders" sub-sections out into new sections?   Hamish59 (talk) 21:06, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

How do you mean? Moving the order of battle further up into the article for example? By the way if you're interested it's 101 years since the First World War beganBerserker276 (talk) 21:15, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Have a look at the Table of Contents in 44th (Home Counties) Division as an example. Hamish59 (talk) 07:08, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 15
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited James Hill (British Army officer), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Dives. 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.

Your contributed article, Elbridge Chapman (United States Army officer)


Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Elbridge Chapman (United States Army officer). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Eldridge Chapman. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Eldridge Chapman – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Wikishovel (talk) 17:50, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi, could you tell me where you got that photo? It's very likely out of copyright (because Crown Copyright expires after 50 years) but at the moment the page says you took the photo and release it under a Creative Commons licence, which obviously isn't right. Did you get it from a website or scan it from a book or something? If you could let me know, we should be able to keep it but without knowing where it came from it's likely to be deleted.

Battles
Hello. I noticed that you have removed the listed battles from the infoboxes in Daniel Beak and William Slim, 1st Viscount Slim. Can I ask that you please provide a valid reason in the edit summary when removing content from articles? Otherwise, the edits will be considered unhelpful and be reverted, as in the case of the above two. It is also worth remembering that, per MOS:NOPIPE, it is unnecessary to pipe redirects (e.g. First World War to First World War ) as the link is already valid and, indeed, the unnecessary piping can create clean up issues in the future.

Ronald Henry Senior moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Ronald Henry Senior, 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 " " 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.

Hi - I note that you are consistently adding "30em" to any reflist template you come across (see here). Meanwhile another editor is consistently removing them (see here).

 * Dawnseeker2000 - You might like to express a view on this. Dormskirk (talk) 19:33, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello, yes, I've been removing the column-width parameter after hearing that it was no longer necessary from a commenter on my talk page about a year ago. I then saw documentation at, , and others. There are probably more than a few more related discussions because the change has been confusing to editors, but as I understand it, ref columns are now done automatically with 30em being the default width, therefore making the text 30em redundant. Dawnseeker2000  14:17, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
 * That makes sense. Many thanks. Dormskirk (talk) 14:32, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
 * One more thing. reflist only creates columns when there are 10 or more references. The default setting is no columns for articles with 0–9 refs. Dawnseeker2000  14:37, 12 January 2022 (UTC)


 * I came here to make exactly the same point. There is no need to add 30em in. Please stop doing it. Blue Square Thing (talk) 14:46, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

 * 2) Remove the text that looks like this:
 * 3) Click the  button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with. And remember to sign your reply with. Thanks!

Placement of citations
Please take care with your placement of London Gazette citations as I am finding it necessary to either move them to a more appropriate location or amend the structure of either the sentence affected or the surrounding sentences. Keep in mind that everything in the article body needs to be sourced. When you add an LG citation in isolation, it theoretically means that it is the source of all the information between it and the preceding citation. For example, you added a LG citation to William Gentry's article in relation to being made a CB in the 1954 Birthday Honours. The placement of that citation meant that the preceding sentences relating to his promotion to major general, term as CGS, representation for ANZUS and the defence of Southeast Asia, all previously correctly sourced, were not cited since the LG citation does not mention any of that information. You have made these sort of edits multiple times on a number of articles on my watchlist. Moving forward, please consider carefully the placement for any citations you add.
