Other Names
The article reads, "As a result of the gold color of the bars, second lieutenants are often colloquially referred to as Butterbars, Nuggets, Commissioned Privates, or 2nd Luey." However, I assume this is incorrect. Their nicknames of "Commissioned Privates" as well as "2nd Luey" are not as a result of the gold colour of the bars. As such, I submit that the article should be changed to read, "As a result of the gold color of the bars, second lieutenants are often colloquially referred to as Butterbars or Nuggets, but have also been called Commissioned Privates or 2nd Luey."

Probationary Rank
Is it worth mentioning that Second Lieutenant is a probationary rank in the [[British Army]], and promotion to Lieutenant is automatic after two years? That is providing that you don't make any major foul-ups) --81.171.193.118 13:39, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
- It is also worth noting that Sublieutenant is the lowest, and probationary, commissioned officer's rank in the Royal Navy. Also, it is the rank all Naval Officer Cadets are bestowed with upon graduating their initial eight-week training course.

Pronunciation
Currently the pronunciations under the British and Commonwealth sections are malformed, and I do not know how they need to be, nor the syntax to, correct them.
Xelous - 13th June 2007.
German Rank
There may also be need to make a more spefic reference to the German use of the word "Leutnant" as it appears many users, and editors correct the spelling of the correct "Leutnant" on German biographical entries, for the American Rank, and English word, Lieutenant.

Turkey: Asteğmen is wrong. Second Lieutenant is Teğmen. Asteğmen is Under Second Lieutenant —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cybersonic82 (talk • contribs) 12:26, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
Norwegian Rank
Added a commentary on the Norwegian rank - seeing how this rank differs very much in function in the Norwegian Army compared to other armies. I don't know of any other army where this is the practice. Source: http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fenrik Andrimner (talk) 00:28, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
Norwegian, Danish, Dutch, British, Canadian, American, etc.
In the English language, Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, Dutch, British, Canadian, American, Mexican, German, Belgian, Polish, Czech, Slovalian, Hungarian,
Italian, Irish, Icelandic, Iranian, Indian, Indonesian, Indianan, Iowan, Idahoan, etc., are always capitalized. Foreigners, please get with it, to avoid insulting other people by the millions. It is not difficult to remember - just capitalize all of them!
