Talk:New Model Army

message: Some sources refer to the New Model Army during the Protectorate as the "Army of the Republic" - see for example Martyn Bennett, "The English Civil War" (Ditchfield, 1992). Should this alternative name be addded to the article under the Interregnum section?
:Yes, since it is clearly sourceable. It should also appear in the WP:LEAD, in boldface, as an alternative term. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont]  ‹(-¿-)› 01:38, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

message: The article refers to "a rendezvous (meeting) near New Market on Friday 4 June 1647". New Market points to a disambiguation page. There is no "New Market" in England, but three "Newmarket":
* Newmarket, Derbyshire
* Newmarket, Gloucestershire
* Newmarket, Suffolk
Which of these is meant here? TiffaF 08:13, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

message: A minor change - the Levellers executed in Burford were shot, not hanged. There's source material for this in various newsbooks of the day, with secondary descriptions in books like Antonia Fraser's "Cromwell". Bedesboy (talk) 00:16, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

message: When I search for Grandee, I'm taken to a sort of hybrid disambiguation article containing the section #Grandee (New Model Army), which has three sentences telling me briefly which faction of the New Model Army were called Grandees. The  link on that section points to this article. Great.
In this article, when I Ctrl-f to find out about the Grandees, I see that they appear in the narrative in the section New Model Army#Second English Civil War without explanation. As a novice to this subject, I find it odd that, in order to see the term defined before it's used, I have to arrive via disambiguation.
A bold edit that might resolve the problem would be to copy the three sentences from Grandee into the section where Grandees are talked about in this article, but that seems crude, and inconsistent with decent writing. I'm uncomfortable doing much editing because of my broad ignorance of the subject. The issue, to be clear, is that the word "Grandee" is first used in this article in a way that is confusing to anyone who doesn't already know who the Grandees were.
Can anyone knowledgeable about this topic address this issue, please? I'll probably research it a bit more, and if I'm able to make an informed edit before someone qualified gets to it, then I'll do my best. I think, however, that our readers would profit more from the contribution of an amateur historian than that of a professional mathematician. -GTBacchus(talk) 15:55, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

message: I removed the link to "Southern Association" in the table of units. If there was a Southern Association of counties providing militia/volunteers on the same lines as the well-known Eastern Association, that's fine, but I'm not aware of it. The link, at any rate, led to an article about a Southern US baseball league by that name.
There seem to be quite a lot of these non-relevant links scattered around Wikipedia right now. Random noter (talk) 23:41, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
