Australian Special Operations Command

Hi Nick, you could well be right, I was mainly trying to convey the structure more precisely, i.e. that TAG East is a subsidiary of 4RAR (rather than an equivalent unit). Cheers. Grant65 (Talk) 01:30, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

9th Div

I'm not sure what happened there. I didn't see your new material at all until just now. Maybe we both tried to save at the same time and I just beat you. It shouldn't work out the way it did though. Weird. BTW, as usual, good stuff there and well done. Grant65 | Talk 04:45, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

34th Bde/RAR

Nick, my source (an Army History Unit article) simply said that the 34th (and its Bns) was renamed/restructured as RAR. If you have better information, that's all good. But the way the RAR and BCOF articles read now, the 34th Bde and the 65th, 66th and 67th Bns still exist, parallel to the RAR. It's ambiguous. I think we need something to express the exact relationship between the 34th Bde and RAR. Grant65 | Talk 08:03, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Australian I Corps

G'day Nick. Can you have a look at this and check for any errors I may have made? Thanks, Grant65 | Talk 08:30, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

4 RAR image

Looking at speedy deletion criteria I3, that image could be deleted at any time without warning. Category:Non-commercial use only images shows you the template that would be on the page including the link to Jimbo's email announcing the new procedure. I apologize that I didn't say anything. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 01:58, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the info much appreciated, do you have any thoughts on how to further improve the article. Regards Hossens27 13:01, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:ADF Command.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:ADF Command.JPG. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 23:41, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just a quick comment. You have noted on the page for Image:ADF Command.JPG that the image was "released into the public domain". it wasn't. CoA maintains copyright on it. Releasing something into the public domain has a specific meaning. --Myk 02:59, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RAAF C-17s

The source is informal but close to the information, but I expect it to be in the public statements soon. There are only a few candidate squadrons based upon the press release info anyhow, independent of what I posted. —Joseph/N328KF (Talk) 12:18, 3 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

25 pounder

The only reason the vote was even was because no one bothered to inform me about it. As the main author of the main article, I would have voted for inclusion. Obviously, it's one paragraph, the original split is dumb. I am re-merging. Maury 13:09, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fleet Air Arm Squadrons

I think that the squadron numbers for the RAN's FAA should follow the same pattern as for the Fleet Air Arm. I've attached what seems to be the only FAA squadron article for No. 849 Squadron FAA. Hope this helps. Hammersfan 5 March 2006, 18.00 GMT
