Hi WikiProject Military history, I’d like to invite anyone interested to join the WikiProject Unreferenced Articles #NOV24 Backlog Drive. There's already been an impressively large reduction in the number of unreferenced military history articles over the last months, but in case you want to apply any more of that energy to the drive, you can quickly access a list of remaining ones here. The drive runs through November, and any help adding reliable sources is welcome. Thanks! Turtlecrown (talk) 13:35, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's been suggested I draw attention to this Talk:War reserve constable both on here and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Law Enforcement in the hope someone with better skills and ideas than myself can sort out an inaccuate section (they says only 3 WRCs were killed 'in the line of duty' when that's clearly not the case. Many thanks to anyone willing to have a look! Rhillman (talk) 18:15, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi!

so I'm just a kid basically and don't know what I'm talking about. However, there are a lot of ships on here that I often find myself at, and it is strange there isn't a formal way to set up the stats of the ships. Some include cost, some don't. some include ship badge, some don't. ship mottos, classification numbers, consistent displacement(some include full load and regular, others don't specify). I feel like it would make sense if not to standardize it at least advise for certain info to be included Mlayap (talk) 00:28, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
