March Madness 2017
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:


 * tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
 * updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
 * creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

GAF historical equipment page
Greetings! so you seem to be pretty into GAF history and equipment, so could you look up this article - [] and remove some information you think is false or add some more? article it self is not done yet, im looking forward to add former aircraft and radar systems. ZUKAGRAD (talk) 11:59, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

Hey ! looks good so far, look forward to the finished article. One thing I would definitly add is maybe the time period, like 1991 to 2001 or a date in which there were dramatic changes. Like until reforms, the acquirement of T-72 fleet, it's modernization etc. It seems there were lots of different and crazy weapons in the Georgian arsenal back in the 1990s, I even remember to have seen a photo with a combatant / soldier carying a scoped M16 rifle. But maybe that was internal forces. Omega unit for instance used MP5 in 1993. Maybe the military also had H&K weapons. To be honest, I wasn't really into that period yet. I will find the time and help you as much as I can Zukagrad.

November 2017
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Colchis. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Drmies (talk) 01:32, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
 * Seriously, it's trivia. It's not even written in proper English, and I don't think anyone could possibly prove that this is a reliable source by Wikipedia's standards. Drmies (talk) 01:34, 2 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Smooth. How about not trying to put people in place with warnings acting like an admin and instead analyse the entire situation and see if the other party is right in its doings .... ? TheMightyGeneral (talk) 01:44, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I am in fact an admin, have been for years. Drmies (talk) 03:12, 2 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Than frankly Drmies I'm greatly dissapointed to see admins behave like that. TheMightyGeneral (talk) 03:41, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 01:55, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

November 2017
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.  Acroterion   (talk)   02:01, 2 November 2017 (UTC)


 * You may not edit-war to establish your preferred version, and if multiple editors are telling you that there is a policy-based problem with your edits, it is probably because there's a policy-based problem with your edits. If you had not made that last revert, you would probably not have been blocked.  Acroterion   (talk)   02:09, 2 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Oh, nobody is saying "enemy"--but two editors removed that information, and all you had to say was "I don't agree". You clearly broke the 3R line. The block was well-earned. And that's setting aside the whole thing about the sourcing and the content, which were both atrocious. Drmies (talk) 03:12, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Sorry but that is just false. First of all, "I don't agree" is not what I stated. I stated that you don't give valid reasons. Your argument was not "3R line" .... but "unreliable sources", direct sources are not unreliable. You can't condemn and delete an entire section just because you feel that one website source is written in poor English. Is that really the reasoning wikipedia applies nowadays ? TheMightyGeneral (talk) 03:17, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
 * You continue to misunderstand; I think English is not your first language. I never said anything about a website being in poor English. I said the website was an unreliable source, and that the text in our article was in poor English (not "I feel"--it was in poor English). I also didn't say anything about 3R as an argument because, duh, that's not an argument to revert. Your breaking the red line of 3R was an argument for blocking. If you hadn't reverted a fourth time you might not have been blocked. Drmies (talk) 03:21, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
 * No I really don't. English is indeed not my first language but I understand it perfectly well. Yeah, I also never argued with a simple statement like "I don't agree" but I'm being misquoted anyway so - I actualy specified and explained for the xth time to why your edit makes no sense from a purely logical POV. So what exactly was in poor English there, can you elaborate at least ? because that is your primary argument for deleting chunks of sourced information. That one was rather irony but yeah I was a little too into it +3R and the consequence is technicaly justified but really you can keep such comments for yourself and my request still stands. TheMightyGeneral (talk) 03:53, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

Why are you saying that the poor English was the primary argument? It wasn't. I will be happy to explain, but I don't answer loaded questions. I think you are putting these words into my mouth so you don't have to pay attention to the other editor's three or four policy-based reasons. So here we go:
 * 1) the English is poor. "Historical Colchis and its relation to Greek mythology has influenced contemporary popular culture with the result of several movies and miniseries as well as fictional depictions" is grammatically incorrect. I don't know what "historical" Colchis is--as opposed to "fictional" Colchis? Or did you mean "historically", which is redundant? Also, "contemporary" with who? "Historical Colchis"? or you? or the last decade? "With the result of" is ungrammatical.
 * 2) for the nth time, this is a primary source, and so are this and this, making "bears some resemblance" pure original research. If you don't understand what the problem is with that, you really shouldn't be editing here.
 * 3) same with Percy Jackson, where you cite a primary source and then "Goodreads", which is as about as far from a reliable source as one can get.
 * 4) "In the 1963 film" is poor writing--which film? Also, you're citing that moviejourneys website again--not a reliable source. And that a miniseries was based on the movie is irrelevant in this article, and there also you're just citing some website. That's fine for Wikia, but not here.
 * 5) In the last one, "Kingdom of Colchis" is unclear. The REAL kingdom? And again you're citing two websites, not reliable sources, so there is no indication that this matters at all.

You should really, REALLY read WP:RS and WP:OR, besides WP:RECENTISM, WP:TRIVIA, WP:FANCRUFT, WP:UNDUE, already suggested to you by. So that my edit "makes no sense from a logical POV" is just complete nonsense from the point of view of Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Now, I've wasted enough time on this. If you can't judge what reliable sources are and can't control yourself, please stay away from this article, which is already bad enough. Drmies (talk) 14:54, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

Are you done with your silly ego trip ? I naturaly agree that the article is in poor shape and definitly needs to expand with much more researched historical content and be sourced adequately or at all in the first place. But why don't you tackle that first rather than the actualy few sourced segments of the article .... ? It literaly is not. Redundancy is no argument for complete deletion, neither is not knowing what "contemporary" means. Maybe English isn't your first language either ? Nope, only two of those are ... I literaly linked "In the 1963 film" with a wikipedia article. If you are that lazy why even bother in the first place .... and also waste MY time as well as yours ? You basicaly accuse me of what you've been doing consistently on this issue now and the edit history doesn't lie. Honestly, at this point due to your behavior I don't care what you think. You act very pompous. I am very well aware of these guidelines and you should read them thoroughly yourself in the first place especialy when granted admin privileges. Using primary sources does not go against WP:RS at all, there are regulations on when or how and your reasoning for deletion wasn't even specified or clear in your edits and one complete deletion was reasoned with "poor English" .... using primary sources is not forbidden, however it is preferred to back them up with secondary sources. The only claim that holds somewhat ground is WP:OR, fine. It's a matter of debate but I would of taken care of it sooner or later. Deleting it entirely is not productive editing, especialy without the will to discuss. Further WP:TRIVIA is a complex matter and you used "trivia" as another argument for deletion. Again, read WP:TRIVIA thoroughly because trivia per se isn't forbidden or unwelcome at all as long as it has a purpose including mention of media and pop-culture. The entire issue isn't black and white in the first place, yet conclusions are dropped by people here like a hammer. Complex guidelines don't work like that. WP:FANCRUFT doesn't apply and also is yet another issue you mix with consent policy. There is no firm policy on it to begin with and deleting such things if given are controvesial if anything. You do without even discussing. I openly suggest that user Drmies activities on this issue are reviewed by another admin. It is less a personal grudge than it is a genuine concern for the treatment of wikipedia users. It is also not an individual phenomenon. TheMightyGeneral (talk) 16:08, 2 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Note from blocking admin More than three reverts is a bright line violation: 90% of the time, more than three reverts with anything other than clear-cut vandalism or a violation of the biographies of living persons policy will earn a block. Admins are not supposed to use the occasion to adjudicate a dispute - four reverts is a behavioral issue causing disruption to the encyclopedia and is dealt with accordingly. You were clearly warned about edit-warring and chose to continue your disruptive behavior. You must understand that you violated a community norm by edit-warring, and are blocked as a result. A conviction on your part that you're right doesn't entitle you to edit-war, nor does it entitle you to ignore other editors who are trying to advise you on Wikipedia editing policies. If this behavior recurs, subsequent blocks will be longer. This is long-established Wikipedia procedure, and it works. Please take this incident seriously - edit-warring is not tolerated.  Acroterion   (talk)   01:16, 3 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Noone disputes the technical WP:3RR violation. I can still request a review and I did it primarily to bring this entire affair to other peoples ( preferably other admins ) attention. I didn't even have any chance to react and give my position. Two users, at least one admin acted against me almost in suspicious harmony on the "dispute" and you instantanously blocked me after the 4th revert. I don't judge you for that. The block is naturaly justified. But the implication that I feel entitled to wage edit wars for the sake of instead of actualy processing and considering why I do it - because I consider it unjustified for reasons stated which are valid - and need to listen to people who don't properly grasp said guidelines and policies or just very narrow mindedly is plain impudent. I don't know what else to call it. The guidelines I will always take seriously. This behaviour however, I can not. TheMightyGeneral (talk) 01:56, 3 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Thank you for understanding the position with respect to edit-warring. The way disputes are resolved is through discussion and consensus, which doesn't take place in a flurry of reverts. Next time use the talkpage, and work to gain consensus for your edits as policy demands. You appear to be attributing a lack of good faith to those with whom you disagree - that isn't appropriate. I disagree with lots of people, both on Wikipedia and in real life. Sometimes I'm wrong, sometimes they're wrong. Sometimes nobody's wrong. But (vandals aside) I very rarely encounter true bad faith, and this isn't one of those cases. A superficial reading of the comments concerning your edits shows good-faith concern over your edits and their compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please make an effort to constructively engage those concerns once your block is over. Please do not treat other editors as adversaries.  Acroterion   (talk)   02:06, 3 November 2017 (UTC)


 * My edit is relentlessly treated and proclaimed as nonsense. I put effort into it and finding alternative-to-direct sources on these particular information is partialy very hard but I try and most of my work is unfinished. I take more time for that than others. Is it essential to the article ? no. Is it a violation against wiki principles and guidelines to have something like that on a historical article ? no. There certainly is no strict or firm policy and imo there shouldn't be as long as it's sourced and subject for improvement. Everything else should be discussed. I don't approve of the blunt deletion of something like that just because some other users don't like it or consider it un-wiki with vague invalid argument. That is what I consider inappropraite and an unfaithful use of privileges and edit rights. I understand your position, but I simply don't agree on downplaying what is actualy unproductive. That is the problem. Thank you for taking your time. I know you are trying to de-escalate a situation. But there is no situation and anything to de-escalate. I don't see anyone as actual adversaries merely because they antagonise my edits. I am just stating a fact, my complaint, concern and dissapointment on how this issue is being treated. It is very unprofessional, just like some of the remarks. I will, but for the time beeing I need to get over this dissapointment. TheMightyGeneral (talk) 03:16, 3 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Please keep in mind that professional writers have editors and reviewers, and that any writer on Wikipedia must justify their writing and content to others, responding to criticism in a professional manner. Wikipedia aspires to a professional level of writing, and editors must be able to work within the bounds of "your writing may be ruthlessly edited or rewritten by others," as it used to say in the edit window notice.

 * I am not against that general notion in any way. I stated my reasons to why I have to disagree and principaly oppose the activity on this particular issue. Until there is a firm policy on such niche editing aspects, I will continue to do so and so should others. Violating base editing rules isn't debatable and I regret having done so. Everything else however remains unchanged. Keeping it civilised applies to all parties. TheMightyGeneral (talk) 12:19, 3 November 2017 (UTC)

2017 Military Historian of the Year and Newcomer of the Year nominations and voting
As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017. Nominations and voting will take place on the main project talkpage: here and here. Thank you for your time. For the co-ordinators, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:35, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

User group for Military Historians
Greetings,

"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians.

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive
G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:


 * tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
 * adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
 * updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
 * creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

Orders, decorations, and medals of Georgia
Hello. Regarding your comment: ''There is no official division like that in the first place. It's especialy nonsensical to put some of the highest military orders in an "unofficial" section. But we can seperate royal orders. Okay''. I would like to make a clearance, that usually orders created by pseudo-royal houses, not recognized by the Georgian state itself, should not be part of the article due to WP:NN. Though they might be part of an article about the royal house itself.--Melberg (talk) 19:24, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

Military history writing
Hi again. I've been compiling a list of biographies and events considered more-than-notable-enough to have an article on English Wikipedia. I have a pretty long to-do list that is not part on those lists, hence it will be a long time before I get to the listed redlinks. Do you think you can write some of the articles? (There is an active contest offering barnstars for a large number of full articles). Thank you, --PlanespotterA320 (talk) 01:42, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

Using talk pages
Quick note on the logistics of discussing things on Talk pages, which are essential for everything that happens here. In Talk page discussions, we "thread" comments by indenting (see WP:THREAD) - when you reply to someone, you put a colon in front of your comment, which the Wikipedia software will render into an indent when you save your edit; if the other person has indented once, then you indent twice by putting two colons in front of your comment, which the WP software converts into two indents, and so on, and when that gets ridiculous you reset back to the margin (or "outdent") by putting this in front of your comment. Threading/indenting also allows you to make it clear if you are also responding to something that someone else responded to if there are more than two people in the discussion; in that case you would indent the same amount as the person just above you in the thread. I hope that all makes sense. And at the end of the comment, please "sign" by typing exactly four (not 3 or 5) tildas "~" which the WP software converts into a date stamp and links to your talk and user pages when you save your edit. That is how we know who said what to whom and when.

Please be aware that threading and signing are fundamental etiquette here, as basic as "please" and "thank you", and continually failing to thread and sign communicates rudeness, and eventually people may start to ignore you (see here).

I know this is unwieldy, but this is the software environment we have to work on. Jytdog (talk) 16:12, 5 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you Jytdog. I will keep that in mind for future comments / replies. TheMightyGeneral (talk) 22:24, 5 October 2018 (UTC)
