Suggestion
My suggestion is to go to MIL, where there are editors who would be willing to help you. Specifically, you could contacts one of the coordinators (see lower right side of page.) The article isn't acceptable in its present form, but I am sure there are many willing to help you make it acceptable.-- SPhilbrick  T  14:03, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I suggest you take a look at List of United States Marine Corps battalions. I know, they're Marine battalions, not Navy, but I didn't see a comparable list of Navy battalions. You could look at the list, check out any of the specific examples to get a sense of how articles on a battalion are traditionally organized. Note the existence of specialized infoboxes, in this case, which will make it easy to summarize some information about the unit.


 * Here is a naval battalion article NMCB 3. However, note it has a number of templates indicating that it needs work, so don't automatically take this as a good model.-- SPhilbrick  T  16:49, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

License tagging for File:NMCB 40.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:NMCB 40.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 12:06, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
