Images for the Italian-Austrian alpine front

I notice that the paragraphs about the Italian front is quite lacking in photos. I think that the mountain warfare deserves some pictures: here's the link to a good photo (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2097/1844920703_81cf4cf1d7_o.jpg) depicting the Italian Alpini positions on the Rotwand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.96.203.197 (talk) 11:58, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Small typographic inconsistency

At one point in the article, "ceasefire" is used, in another, "cease-fire". I am unable to make edits since the page is locked.

Change to starting date

I am changing the date of the start of the war from June 28, 1914, to July 28, 1914. While June 28, the assasination of the Archduke, was the cause of the war, there was no actual fighting until the 28th of July, when Austria Hungary declared war against Serbia.bob bobato (talk) 14:12, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Ottamon Empire

{{editsemiprotected}} The Ottamon Empire went on til 1923, and Worls war one went on till 1918 so the Territorial changes can't say "... end of ... and Ottamon ... Empires

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Provide both the text that you think should be replaced and the replacement text as mentioned in {{editsemiprotected}}. "... end of ... and Ottamon ... Empires" is a little vague. Can you include the whole sentence and, perhaps, a section title? Thanks.—C45207 | Talk 22:34, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

In the results box it says "end of the German, Russian, Ottoman, and Austro-Hungarian Empires"". The Ottoman empire went on till 1923 and World war One ended in 1918, so I think that Ottoman should be romoved should be removed for the sentence —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.247.60.143 (talk) 13:26, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

It should stay. The dissolution of the Ottoman empire was a direct result of the war. Algebraist 23:56, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

German fleet surrendering

The Commons has this amazing image of the German fleet surrendering to the English showing a U-boat in front of the London Tower Bridge.

German fleet surrendering to the English. First German U-boat near the Towerbridge. London, England, 1918.

I think it would look great in the section on 'naval war'. Could someone please add it for me? My account is too new to do it myself.Yhoitink (talk) 09:12, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

"U.S. engineers returning from the front during the Battle of Saint-Mihiel in September 1918"

All I see are Engineers stringing wire defenses. Not in Marching order of any sort. --VertigoOne (talk) 04:50, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
