Re: Joining LAF Task Force

Thank you for the invitation. I've been following news about the Lebanese army ever since the 2006 war, and I'm honored to be a part of the team. I appriciate your and all the guy's work on Military Photos. Hoboron (talk) 22:06, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

I have marked your profile as a member of the Lebanese military history task force.

Welcome to Milhist!

Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.

A few features that you might find helpful:

• Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
• The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can watchlist it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WPMILHIST Announcements}} there.
• Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
• The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, writing contests, article logistics, and other tasks.
• We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
• We've developed a style guide that covers article structure and content, template use, categorization, and many other issues of interest.
• If you're looking for something to work on, there are many articles that need attention, as well as a number of review alerts and copy-editing alerts.
• The project has a stress hotline available for your use.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the project coordinators, or any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! --ROGER DAVIES ^talk 20:57, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Re:Template

Thanks. I intend to keep it that way, just as to show the major elements. The rest could be seen in the navbox. As for Operation Benin, I'm impressed, good job and keep up the good work.Alain08 (talk) 22:04, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

Nice work! I'm now working on the military academy, probably I'll finish it by tomorrow. Thanks for the comment.Alain08 (talk) 22:02, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Barnstar

Thank you Zaher for the Barnstar, I appreciate it man. Keep up the good work.Alain08 (talk) 11:23, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi

Hi Zaher, I want to discuss with you three issues that I was wondering about:

1. Regarding the Legion of the Orient, this article will be comprising of several legions with different nationalities. So if we want to narrow our topic it would be the Lebanese Legion. This is because when I search for sources on the net, I find Armenian and Cypriot stuff about the matter.
2. The name of the Nahr el Bared, we should come to a compromise regarding the name. Is it Nahr el Bared (like in the article about the martyrs' list) or Nahr al-Bared (like in the LAF article). And should we always refer to it by the name "2007 Lebanese Conflict"?
3. I've found a source that could be helpful for the Mohammad Zgheib military base article, http://www.lebarmy.gov.lb/PrintArticle.asp?id=5609. Hope it will enable its expansion.

Alain08 (talk) 09:05, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Concerning the Legion of the Orient article, I think you're right this will probably be the wisest decision for the time being. We could mention the other sections and put under it (with "this section" instead of "this user talk page") :

By the way thanks for your reply concerning the other subjects :) Alain08 (talk) 10:37, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

In case you're wondering why the 2 list pages (Nahr el Bared & 2006 War) were nominated for deletion, check my talk page.Alain08 (talk) 11:15, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

List of Lebanese Army soldiers killed during Nahr el Bared Operation

I see you've corrected your mistake, but just a pointer; the title was only one of a (multitude) of issues anyway. The AfD page will present you with a more comprehensive view. Ironholds (talk) 16:37, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Lists

Hi Zaher, last time user Ironholds talked to me and linked this Wikipedia Not Memorial. I think that changing the title would not be enough, that's because we're adding names of soldiers who are unknown, and thus irrelevant to Wikipedia. Imagine other task forces doing lists of the soldiers killed in the World War II, the list just never ends :) I should confess that he's right. Please reconsider this matter. Alain08 (talk) 08:35, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Source for modification

Unfortunately, I cannot. I heard it a lot on and after Independence Day after we saw the Mirages, but I could not find it online. Sorry for any inconvenience.

OK. Thank you. Is there any way I can help with the portal?.Jeannassar5 (talk) 14:03, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Issues in MOD

Sorry about that.Jeannassar5 (talk) 19:07, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Navbox

Regarding the {{Military of lebanon navbox}} I think we should organize in more detail the bases of the ground forces. We could Generally add the names of the regional commands eg. North regional command but with a wiki link to Bahjat Ghanem mil base (North regional command) Then, as a subcategory we could put the bases under their control such as the Youssef Rahmeh military base.right|120px

By the way is it George Naghyaweh mil. base or George Nghayweh mil. base ? --Alain08 (talk) 09:41, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Concerning the logo in the mil. navbox, I have previously added the one you have uploaded but later they said that it's too big and should not be put in a template. That is why I've uploaded Image:LAF Flag.gif, because it's smaller than yours and acceptable in a temp. Alain08 (talk) 09:24, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

You said in the caption on the LAF article that the pic near the brigades is a unofficial flag of the LAF. Isn't it considered a logo or emblem/seal ? Alain08 (talk) 22:56, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Caption

I understand that, it just that I've put it in that way just to relate to the topic in the history section (regarding the army day). I know about the rest. IMO It's better to put these pics in the article with a certain relation with the content written. Alain08 (talk) 15:22, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Lebanese Commando Regiment

Hi there, that's a great article that you put together. I played around some with the wording. You're obviously not using regular American English and obviously you're not required to do so. Point is, if you disagree with my edits, and you prefer your style, just revert me :-) --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 04:41, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Okay, maybe I'll work a bit more on the article later on. Btw, did you notice that there's a non-free problem at the DYK?--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 17:53, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Why don't you just remove the pic?--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 18:46, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: Lebanese army first flag

Hi you are indeed right I screwed up... I normally check that there is a counterpart on commons, but I think I missed that image. My apologies :(. -- lucasbfr ^talk 09:30, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

The user that made the tagging also stated that the image was in the public domain. Since I am not sure that's true, I have reverted the copyright informations to your version. Can you please have a look to see whether or not {{PD-Lebanon}} is eligible here (have a look at the restrictions)? -- lucasbfr ^talk 09:34, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Yeah that's what I saw too. There's no chance it could be in the public domain then? -- lucasbfr ^talk 10:02, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
