missing person

This site says that Duke Maximilian Wilhelm of Brunswick-Lüneburg also held the rank. Opera hat (talk) 15:54, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

wrong title

The title speaks erroneously of „Field Marshals of the Holy Roman Empire“.. This empire had no own army. In fact they all were Austrian Field Marshals.

The list at issue is obviously taken from the German Wikipedia article „Generalfeldmarschall“, where it is to be found under the heading „Feldmarschälle (Österreich 1618 – 1918)“, and the correct subtitle „ Erblande des Hauses Österreich 1618–1804” (Hereditary States of the House of Austria).

This list itself had been taken from the official list of Austrian Field Marshals according to the “Schematismus” (Personnel list) of the Imperial and Royal Austrian Army, issued every year until 1914. The persons on this list were Imperial and Royal Field Marshals in the army of the “House of Austria”, i. e. Austrian Field Marshals and not at all Field Marshals of any “Reich”, be it Holy or not

Please change the title accordingly! Carlos Mayor (talk) 14:11, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

So this should be Field Marshals of the Hereditary States of the House of Austria. Auntieruth55 (talk) 21:01, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

Task Force

Is it necessary to have a task force? None of them really fit this project. The closest thing would be be Early Modern, Napoleonic. Auntieruth55 (talk) 19:08, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi Auntieruth, sorry if I've mucked this one up. If an article doesn't if into an already existing task force it can be placed in the "no" task force by adding the parameter no=yes to the mil hist banner. Alternatively there appears to have been a suggestion that it might fit into the Napoleonic task force. I'll leave it up to you to decide though as I've already managed to get this one wrong once before. Cheers! — AustralianRupert (talk) 00:32, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
