I have created this page and moved the content of the incorrectly named Alan Holworthy to it as well as the corresponding talk page contents. Idealy the histories should be merged but I don't know how this is done. Stephen Kirrage talk - contribs 00:02, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
Why did you remove my comment from this talk page? It was entirely appropriate under the circumstances. Please see WP:TPO: Do not strike out or delete the comments of other editors without their permission. Rees11 (talk) 22:52, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
Sorry I snapped at you. You're doing a fantastic job on this article. Keep up the good work. Rees11 (talk) 01:17, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Am just looking for an outside opinion here, previously we have had the total losses displayed with the breakdown of casualties within a note in several articles. Per the Casualties article it clearly states that total casualties include captured. I have used this same appraoch with the Tunisian casualties stating the losses of the Axis forces was in the 300,000 men area; the note showing the breakdown and the various captured claims.
However a dispruptive anon keeps changing it. Any ideas?--EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 22:00, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I undid your edit to Template:AuthorMask doc, because in fact, the author mask isn't created by an em dash but <del>
tag. Also, it doesn't make sense to talk about the length of an em dash, because it always has the lenght of 1 em. Svick (talk) 01:09, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
 
) enclosed in a <del>
tag, that strikes through any text, e.g. <del>some text</del>
produces <del> </del>
(in the case of authormask=1
) that produces Hello, I was the one that deleted the casualty figures in the article Western front (World war II). Sorry for not using my name or for not explaining. I have raised the issue about the casualty figures for a month ago in the discussion page, but without any responce. The figures are not comparable and they are very inaccurate (the Axis figure is far from complete and it is very uncertain if the figures cited covers all those campaigns and battles linked to the "Western front" as the term is used by the article). They simply do not provide the kind of useful information that one can require from an infobox. I therefore removed the casualty section, but I moved down the relatively accurate figure for Allied losses to the section "The 1944-45 campaign in hindsight" in order to save the information.

As you've been heavily involved with editing the article on the Battle of Monte Cassino, I was wondering what you thought of this edit to the article on the monastery itself. It's from the same editor who's been removing information for the article on the battle over the past few days. As you're more familiar with the subject than I am, I was hoping you might be able to check whether the change is accurate or not. Thanks, Nev1 (talk) 16:27, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
Did you actually read all my edits? 5th Indian Infantry Brigade, 7th Indian Infantry Brigade, and 11th Indian Infantry Brigade all have their own articles. Before yesterday the brigade's own articles didn't have their brigade commanders names for World War II listed. I moved them there. I also said in my edit summaries that I was moving them there. I think that's a much more appropriate place for the brigade commanders names than in the division article. Buckshot06 (talk) 21:38, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
Hello,
you were right to correct my edit, I knew something did not match with the Indian Brigade. Yet the link is still wrong, the correct one has to be: 29th Infantry Brigade--Askedonty (talk) 12:07, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
Hello! Your submission of Reginald Laurence Scoones at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and there still are some issues that may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Yoninah (talk) 23:26, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
Stephen, I have submitted 6th Armoured Division (South Africa) for peer review. One of the comments forthcoming from the review was prior to going for an A class review or a GAN I'd suggest having someone take a look through the article and give it a copy edit. I didn't find anything glaring, but it can't hurt; - the comment (and the overall peer review comments) can be seen here. I am still busy working on some of the issues - you will see their status in the peer review comments section.
If you have the time, please give the article a good "once over." Thanks. Farawayman (talk) 07:26, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
![]() | On 22 October 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Reginald Laurence Scoones, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check ) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
Thanks for the note. Nothing out of sorts at all; admins making normal content edits have no special status compared to every other editor changing content. Plus, that was a mistake, pure and simple - the IP had incorrectly reversed dates elsewhere and I for some reason thought they had similarly changed this from BrEng to AmEng. Thanks for catching it. Cheers. --Ckatzchatspy 10:32, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
I thought its time to say thanks to all the editors who have assisted me in the articles I have been working on; so I took a look at toolserver.org and it shows that you have done 11,966 edits and 4 years service. I think you not only deserve, but are entitled to the below award in accordance with the award criteria. I know that one is supposed to award this medal to yourself, but we never do, so I am doing it on behalf of you! Thanks for all your help. Farawayman (talk) 14:21, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Dear co-user, I was amazed to read that you think I had committed 'vandalism'. I'm sure you're willing to reconsider... vandalism is certainly not my thing. And while you're at it: OMG did fail and was huge - the largest airborne ops in WWII - was it not? So following Wiki-guidelines we might agree on summarizing the operation and its outcome in the initial phrase. Also, I'm doing some interesting research (I think) on the oversight of the large Luftwaffe command centre and airfield in Schaarsbergen near Arnhem (the large airfield and gigantic bunker are still there, resp. 'Deelen' and 'Diogenes', 60 x 15 meters) that made it possible for the Germans to quickly establish how and what was happening, and quickly organize their defences. Also, have a look at our site [www.fpmedia.tk], where we follow WWII five days a week. We're not vandals - enthusiasts, maybe... 83.87.231.167 (talk) 10:02, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
In view of your contributions, would you mind looking over my changes to Template:Cite book/doc. Also, I posted a question at Template_talk:Cite_book#Translation_parameters. Thanks. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 12:45, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
Hi Kirrages. I really like the clean-up operation you've just carried out on the casualties list over at Norwegian Campaign. It made things look much better.
On feldgrau.com, however, I've received feedback over at WP:RS that when there are other sources, then those should be preferred over feldgrau. Not being a reliable source, feldgrau is really only good as an external link. Would you mind awfully if I dived into my library and dug up reliable sources on the air and naval casualties of the Germans, replacing and removing feldgrau? Cheers. Manxruler (talk) 12:43, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
Hi can you check the Croft you have added to the DSO page as the link goes to one who died in 1727.Jim Sweeney (talk) 18:55, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
Dear Editor, Thank you for your good guidance. Since the battle day, (rather, the night) is one of the most important events in the war, it needs the detailed chronicling. All the inclusion was based on the reference already quoted in the article. If possible, would somebody edit the article correctly, including the names of the heroes and their deeds?
Regards,
Your friendly,

Dang. I missed the Italian part. Thanks for fixing. --RichardMills65 (talk) 12:33, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
I understood what you said about the sources, but it doesn'it seem you strange that British and Indian troops (attacking troops, in unfavourable position) in so a long battle, with hard fightings, could have had 550 casualties against 12500 casualties (1/22)? I think it could be better to open a discussion on English Portal talk:World War II and Italian it:Discussioni portale:Seconda guerra mondiale (or it:Discussioni progetto:Guerra). --Olonia (talk) 09:45, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

I'm not sure why you found it confusing to place Hewitt first in the list of Allied commanders. I listed Hewitt first because under "joint agreements of the U.S. Army and Navy", in amphibious operations the naval commander commanded until the commanding general of the land forces had established his command post ashore.Thewellman (talk) 07:59, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I've just been wading through the Wp page "Gothic Line order of battle" and noted your generous offer to split it into two more readable pages.

Your user page is appearing in the Category:Pages containing cite templates with deprecated parameters maintenance category because it uses deprecated cite template parameters. Would it be possible to update your user page to remove them? Cheers, Jason Quinn (talk) 01:58, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
It's weird, but when I did my edits, the campaign box went 100% across the main content area instead of being confined to the column width of the infobox. So when I was looking at the article, the introduction was "below the fold" (i.e., I had to scroll down to see it). I guess that was a rendering glitch or something. —howcheng {chat} 09:30, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
Hi,
I think you have forgotten to mention the Norwegian contribution and effort during WWII and Operation Overlord.
Norwegian Navy and Merchant Navy involved in the Operation Overlord: 47 Merchant vessels 7 Navy Fighting warships: - Destroyer: «Svenner», «Stord» og «Glaisdale». - Frigates: «Acanthus», «Eglantine», «Rose» - Escort ship "Nordkapp"
Fighter Squadrons
331- og 332 squadrons
All Norwegian Forces were under British command.
Due to this important contribution the Norwegian flag is one of 6 flags at the Main Memorial at Normandy.
Kind regards, Wivesoll
Whilst I respect the amount of work you're putting in to the Scott article, his memoirs are, to put it mildly, self-serving. And it comes across rather alot in the article as it now stands, the formula being "Scott did this, but everyone else said that" etc. It doesn't help that Peter Padfield's biography is just a rather poor re-hash of the memoirs and basically rubber stamps everything Scott writes. Andrew Lambert's Oxford Dictionary of National Biography entry is far more even-handed, but still fails on a detail level in places. All I would suggest is don't go overboard using his memoirs when sooner or later many of his contentions will be directly contradicted. —Simon Harley (Talk | Library). 17:09, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi, Kirrages. Just a heads-up. On your userpage, some of your London Gazette citations use the "linkeddate" parameter. That parameter is deprecated causing your userpage to apply in this maintenance category: Category:Pages containing cite templates with deprecated parameters.

Hi - I am trying to improve the MILHIST assessment on Claude Auchinleck. I notice you have added back the unsourced army career summary. It is very difficult to improve the assessment of such an article with a large unsourced list in it. I think I have now worked all the individual appointments into the main text. Are you OK for me to remove it? Secondly I have completely re-drafted the main text to incorporate all Auchinleck's promotions so the main prose is complete. To leave the promotions list in would be repetitive and would not accord with other articles that have been assessed as GA, A or B. e.g. Michael Walker, Baron Walker of Aldringham. I feel less strongly about this second point but are you OK for me to remove the promotions list as well? Best wishes. Dormskirk (talk) 08:45, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
Hi - Many thanks for your kind words of encouragement. I have now also removed the promotions list as all promotions are included in the main text and are properly now referenced using the London Gazette template. Please go ahead and the make the changes you mentioned regarding notes etc - you clearly know what you are doing! Best wishes. Dormskirk (talk) 20:28, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

I saw your comment about map uploads here and would like to thank you, it's come in right handy here Western Desert Campaign. Keith-264 (talk) 12:22, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
Hi Kirrages, knowing you have done considerable work to the articles on the Desert War, i am hoping you can provide some advise or information as I am working to improve the article on the 70th Division and looking to have consistent information in it.
Ken Ford's Operation Crusader 1941: Rommel in Retreat calls one of the Italian positions outside of Tobruk 'Togun', which from the Crusader article the NZ history (repeated it would seem by Greene & Massignani) calls 'Tugan'. Ford alleges that the position was captured on 21 November, whereas the NZ OH states only half was captured and the rest held out for a few more days. I have been unable to locate much else on the subject. Do you have any further information on this?
In addition, the Crusader article states the Yorks and Lancs captured strongpoint 'Tiger' suffering heavy casualties in the process. The current 70th Div article just states "(the 2nd Black Watch and the 2nd York and Lancs) suffered heavy casualties". In the reading I have done, it would seem the Black Watch were the ones who took on Tiger (i note that the NZ OH claims 200 dead, although non-RS i have read suggest over 200 wounded and one RS - lacking page numbers - stated only 65 dead). I have not been able to find out anything on what the Yorks and Lancs did on 21st November, or the casualties they suffered. Do you have any information on this too?

Hi Kirrages,
The chaps over at the A-Class review for the 70th Infantry Division have highlighted that the above map cannot be used for the moment due it not containing any source information. I have swapped out the map on the article with the following one: File:AfricaMap3.jpg.
I know you are not very active at the moment, but when you have the time would you be able to provide source info on your map as it is much superior and it would be a pity not to be able to use it.

However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
