Talk:Chief of the Defence Force (Australia)

message: The name of this article is vague could clash with present of future articles. Chief of the Australian Defence Force would be a more suitable title. Also the information can also be found at Australian Defence Force Hossens27 09:35, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Under the relevant Wikipedia naming conventions (see, for example, Wikipedia:Naming conventions (military units)) this article should definetly have 'Australia' in the title as it is only about the Australian Chief of the Defence Force, and not the generic position which exists in a number of countries.. It's bad enough that Americans often pretend that no other countries exist when writing articles here - us Australians should try to set an example! I strongly suggest that this article be renamed Chief of the Defence Force (Australia) as this is consistant with both the name of the actual position in question and the Wikipedia naming conventions (which, IMO, make lots of sense, especially as it's inevitable that there will be other articles about Chiefs of Defence Forces). --Nick Dowling 12:28, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Not sure if Chief of Defence Staff had a similar issue (it's a redirect), or if it's a later adaptation of Chief of the Defence Staff, which is a disambig. I support Nick's proposed name if a change is required, but see no need yet. --Scott Davis Talk 12:39, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've moved it to Chief of the Defence Force (Australia) per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (government departments and ministers).--cj | talk 15:46, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

message: On this page it is stated "Prior to 1958 there was no CDF or equivalent", but is that really true? Since, both Thomas Blamey and Vernon Sturdee were named Commander-in-Chief of the Australian Military Forces. Skjoldbro (talk) 14:28, 14 November 2018 (UTC)
