Speedy deletion nomination of RMLI
A tag has been placed on RMLI requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

I HAVE DELETED YOUR EDIT AGAIN vICKERS IS NOT BEING USED AS A REFERENCE SOURCE. IF YOU ADD SOME CONTENT AND USE VICKERS FO YOUR REFERENCE THAT WOULD BE DIFFERENT --Jim Sweeney (talk) 22:36, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

I had - prior to reinstating this reference - expanded the passage about D-Day, mentioning the important delay experienced by Das Reich, due to SOE and Resistance activities (all phones cut in Normandy field of operations, roads blocked, etc). This is from Vickers' book and I was discussing the matter with him today. I hope the ref can now be reinstated, as this is an important book that deserves a mention.
