I'll start this shortly.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 07:18, 6 January 2014 (UTC)
- Add commas after "which" and the second "division" New Zealand and Australian Division which along with the 1st Division
- OK, I'll bite, what happened? The regiment's first casualty of the war came on 15 March, when a trooper was burying some Australian dead that had drifted ashore.
- midnight 18/19 midnight "on"
- I'd delete his name here: commanding officer Findlay
- missing a comma after command: second in command Major Overton. More later.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 03:56, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
- All the above
Done except for the burial party mystery. Incidentally, Findlay reappears later as The commanding officer Findlay, was invested as... in the Honours section at the end; I wonder if there's sufficient context to trim this the other way round, i.e. to "Findlay was invested as..."? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 05:08, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, I'd use one or the other, but not both. Probably his name for that bit about the investiture.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 05:20, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
- The source does not clarify what happened to him so I have taken that line out.
- All the above
- Fix the names of the further information links like First battle of Gaza. Battle should be capitalized as a proper noun.
- I suggest reordering the clauses in this sea south of Gaza following the route of the road to Beersheba so that "following the route..." comes last.
- I liked the maps of the individual battles, but can you add a map of Palestine so the reader can see the relationship between Jerusalem, Jericho, etc.?
- Added one that covers all the main Palestinian battle areas, which I thing works
- Add periods for Luxford's initials.
- Images appropriately licensed.
- No DABs, external links all work. No overlinking.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 00:33, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
- Been away for a couple of days, so a belated thanks for the review. All done I believe. Jim Sweeney (talk) 18:33, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
