Reference
[edit]Hello, I was wondering if you could help with the 181st Infantry Brigade (United States) page. You added a book reference, "The Brigade, A History by John J. McGrath" and I was wondering if you could provide some footnotes from the book for the article, as I am trying to improve its quality. Thanks! -Ed!(talk)(Hall of Fame) 21:13, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Oops
[edit]Apologies, I created a page for the Higher Formation Insignia of the British Army without doing a proper search and seeing the on you started, and having figured out how to use my svg package dropped loads onto it! The two should be merged, do you agree? And if so do you know how to go about that?Usedtoknowthat (talk) 15:57, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

Image clear templates
[edit]Hi Mikeofv, I was going through some old items on my watchlist and noticed this edit to Glider infantry where you did a couple of unusual things with <br>
tags and blank lines. I'm not sure exactly what you were going for, but I did want to make sure you were aware of the template {{clear}}, which can be of help getting images to display nicely when they would otherwise overcrowd the text. Happy editing! Ibadibam (talk) 22:54, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for May 12

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 337th Infantry Regiment (United States), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages NTC and JRTC (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
