yeah there seem some areas milhist taggers have not gone, unless I, as a milhist and ships skeptic have misinterpreted scope, like some do - there are yet subjects and categories that have not yet got milhist projecttags JarrahTree 23:34, 31 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
If I am interpreting your statement correctly; you are saying there are MILHIST articles not yet tagged that are in the MILHIST scope? If that is correct, you are correct. --Molestash (talk) 23:41, 31 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
very interesting as to categories even untagged as well - clearly of relevance to military history as could be interpreted without checking project scope JarrahTree 23:46, 31 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
Assignment of Articles to the WikiProject on Military History. Assessment and Review of These Articles.edit
Latest comment: 7 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
There is a Wikipedia article on 'The Use of Force by States'. The article seeks to summarise the rules of Public International Law which govern the use of force by states. Notwithstanding the title, this is essentially a legal article, not an article on military history. As a former teacher of Public International Law, I am uneasy both about the content of the article and about its current assessment rating. It would benefit in my opinion from being reviewed and assessed (and indeed edited) by a lawyer currently engaged in Public International Law - either as an academic or as a practitioner. (The two categories often overlap). Articles in this area may be highly contentious. There is a potential for adverse impact on Wikipedia's international reputation. It is very desirable that such articles reflect the consensus of academic and practitioner opinion, and are properly sourced. There may be a general issue about the assignment of essentially legal articles to the Military History project - the people best placed to review, assess and edit may not spot the articles.

Hello Molestash - Thank you for reviewing Sinking Creek Raid. Someday, I may try to improve it to GA. Is there anything obvious that you think should be addressed? TwoScars (talk) 22:13, 26 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
The only thing I can tell you is that you are missing is a citation at the end of the second paragraph of "To Cold Knob Mountain" section. After that it will meet a B class and I think GA as well.

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:
tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.
For your efforts during March Madness 2017, you are hereby awarded this barnstar. Thank you for your contributions. Cheers. Catlemur (talk) 07:46, 2 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Gloucestershire Regiment in World War I assessmentedit
Latest comment: 6 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
Hi. I'm just being curious. You assessed [1] this article as B, but as I understand the criteria, B class articles should "reasonably cover the topic". This article is nowhere near complete, and is yet to cover half the war. Have I misunderstood something? FactotEm (talk) 17:52, 11 October 2017
B2 is the coverage and I think it's fine. It's already way more detailed then needed and since you've got continuous work in it I figured it'd be ok. If you want me to address it back down to start, let me know. Molestash (talk)
It is proving to be a bit of a monster, and I'm considering spinning it out to separate articles. My feeling is that it is Start, but I'm not precious about it. Whatever you see fit is fine by me. Thanks. FactotEm (talk) 18:25, 11 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Your assessment of article National Security Action Memorandum 273edit
Latest comment: 6 years ago6 comments2 people in discussion
You have assessed the article National Security Action Memorandum 273 as "start" -- an opinion which I challenge. The wikipedia definition of a "start" article is "Some meaningful content, but most readers will need more." This article far exceeds that definition, containing all the material an average reader needs to know. It is as complete as an encyclopedia article need be, accurate, well referenced, and well written. Certainly there is room for improvement in all articles -- Shakespeare could have used an editor -- but to call this a "start article" is incorrect and misleading. Smallchief (talk) 10:52, 29 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
You ever find it tacky to call your own work well written and comparing it to Shakespeare?
Being snide in unbecoming to a wikipedia editor who is supposed to be objective and fair minded. To emphasize my point, the following is the guidance in Wikipedia: Assessing articles"
"Assessments are useful if done right, but are often done wrong. Many articles are given lower quality or importance ratings than they merit based on the criteria. A common mistake is to assess short articles as stub or start class even when there is nothing more to be said about the subject, and longer articles as B (or higher) class even when there is much more to be said."
So, in your opinion, this article does not meet the quality standards for a "B" article. However, as you may be aware, there is a "C" classification for articles which do not meet the "B" standard but are substantially better than "start." I will certainly submit this article to another editor for review if you do not change your assessment. Smallchief (talk) 11:28, 29 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
And, by the way, your assertion that reference 2 lacks page numbers is incorrect.Smallchief (talk) 11:40, 29 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
IMO Yes. Even if it passes B1, it will still fail C-class for WPMILHIST because of how the assessment scale works. An article must pas B3, B4, and B5 simultaneously for C. Good luck and please keep up with the good work, it's harder to come by it seems like. --Molestash (talk) 11:48, 29 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

You removed Wahkare Khety from the military history project, claiming that he has no military connections. But the article describes his military activities:
"From the Instructions, it is known that Wahkare Khety, in alliance with the nomarchs of Lower Egypt, managed to repel the nomad "Asiatics" who for generations roamed in the Nile Delta. Those nomarchs, although recognizing Wahkare's authority, ruled de facto more or less independently. The expulsion of the Asiatics allowed the establishment of new settlements and defense structures on the northeastern borders"
"In the south, Wahkare and the faithful nomarch of Asyut Tefibi retook the city of Thinis, previously captured by the Thebans led by Intef II; however, the troops of Herakleopolis sacked the sacred necropolis of Thinis, a serious crime sadly reported by Wahkare himself"
Why are his campaigns not considered of interest? Dimadick (talk) 19:27, 10 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
Hi Dima, we have no evidence he's done anything militarily. He may have been ruler when the Asiatics were expelled but its unlikely he was the commander in the field. It's the same reason we don't have every US president listed in WP:MILHIST despite them being commander in chief. If you feel I am incorrect feel free to re add him to to the project. --Molestash (talk) 10:48, 11 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Exactly! This is a phenomenon that does occur with military involvement. Think on a cosmic level like a meteor strike.

Just a quick correction to the prior message about the 2022 MILHIST coordinator election! I (Hog Farm) didn't proofread the message well enough and left out a link to the election page itself in this message. The voting will occur here; sorry about the need for a second message and the inadvertent omission from the prior one. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 17:41, 15 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
