thread_title:  No modern information! 

message: I miss some remarks about tactics or strategics about submarine warfare. There must have been some reason to introduce the submarine as a weapon. Why is a submarine in WWII so different from modern boats? Previous designs before WWI were closer to modern ones than the WWII were. Any reasons for it? What about the line of development of submarines, technical advances, politic warfare in the back? There must have been reasons for going to dive deep.  Nothing found in here.

message: I know the page needs additional improvements, but at this point there's a number of new citations, sources have been used as inline citations more frequently, and I sure don't see this as an article reliant on a single source anymore (though let's face it, a page about the legislature will draw a LOT from the legislature's official website and published histories, right?).  Anyway, I'll keep trying to think of other sources we could use to substantiate claims here, but I wonder if this can't lose its tag, at this point, and join the ranks of the many Wikipedia articles that do need improvement, but are useful enough not to need a big warning sign?

Talk:Ski warfare

message: It can be added that Finnish troops used skiing in their war raids against the enemy since the
500 AD. Most of these raids were made during winter time and the average soldier was able to ski
about 15 - 20 kilometres in one hour. Typical day ski march was about 50 km.
One of the most notable ski march was made in the war against the Muscovites in 1581 when the Finnish troops of 3.500 soldiers skied across the Gulf of Finland under the command of Pontus de la Gardie from Viipuri to Ingermanland and took the Muscovite main positions Narva and Rakvere from the rear.
This is just one example. There are hundreds of such actions made by the Finns. It should be also noted that the Russians used mainly Finno Ugrian ski troops collected from Karelians, Vepsäs, Ingermanlanders, Vatjas, Komis, and Komi Permjaks when coquered the native tribes in Siberia.
JN
I also believe that older examples should be mentioned. The oldest mentioned examples are the napoleonic wars. This gives the impression that skis weren't used before or were not important, which is definitely not the case. The journal of the (British) Royal United Services Institute published an article about "War on Skis". It might be worth to cover some of the examples because it might give a better understanding about the history of this topic. The article (+ citations ...) can be found here: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/03071844009427348?journalCode=rusi19 .   — Preceding unsigned comment added by Valmendil (talk • contribs) 13:41, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

thread_title: Huge Blank Space

message: The article contends:
:The first multi-theatre war of the modern era was the series of Napoleonic wars,
This seems clearly to be nonsense.  Even taking "theater" to apply only to very wide areas, the Seven Years War would clearly qualify (with fighting in Germany, the Atlantic, North America, the West Indies, India, the Philippines, and the Mediterranean).  So the War of the Austrian Succession (North America, the Low Countries, Central Europe, Italy and the Mediterranean, India, the West Indies).  So probably the War of the Spanish Succession (Spain, the Low Countries, Italy, Central Europe [at least until Blenheim], North America, the West Indies) and the Nine Years War (Central Europe, the Low Countries, Italy, Ireland, North America).  Working more narrowly, one could certainly define the Thirty Years War, especially after France's entry, as a multi-theater war (fighting in the Pyrenees, the Low Countries, Italy, and Germany).  Going back even further, some of the Valois-Habsburg wars would likely qualify.  For example, the war of 1542 to 1544 found operations taking place between Charles V and the Ottomans in Hungary and the Mediterranean, between Charles V and Francis I in Italy, between Francis and both Charles V and Henry VIII in the Low Countries and Northern France, and between Henry VIII and the Scots up north - and Suleiman and Francis were actively allied, so it's not just two separate simultaneous wars - Franco-Turkish cooperation was probably more significant in that war than German-Japanese cooperation in World War II, for instance.  john k (talk) 02:03, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  First multi-theater war 

message: The intro paragraph mentions that "a theater can include the entirety of the air, space, land and sea area". Anyone care to explain why space is mentioned because, as far as I'm aware, there is no space warfare going on, or at the very least it is a secret kept well hidden from the public. It seems quite unusual to mention it here when the article makes no reference to fiction (which may include space warfare). 86.8.136.194 (talk) 16:52, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Space? 

message: Why is the term "theatre"/"theater" used at all in describing the area where a war is taking place?  I find it a pretty strange term to use, and one that seems inappropriate and in dubious taste, as it seems to trivialize war, seeming to reduce it to something one might gain entertainment from, since entertainment is the principal purpose of literal theatres.
I suppose there is a reason why this rather odd term was ever adopted, and if anyone knows how and why the term came to be adopted in connection with war, it would be good if this could be included within the article.  (I would do it myself, but I have no idea how the term arose.) M.J.E. (talk) 17:33, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  Citation needed 

message: I created Coharie Intra-tribal Council, Inc., for the state-recognized tribe. Looking back at this article, most of the information is uncited or the citations are self-published deadlinks. Updating this article will be a challenge since Coharie wasn't a specific Native American tribe. For instance, Hodge 1911 and Swanton 1952 don't even mention the term Coharie. Books published before 1975 only mention the Little Coharie Creek and the Great Coharie Creek and the Coharie formation. Seems like it would be best to turn this page into a disambiguation page for the term Coharie but I'm not sure how to propose that. Yuchitown (talk) 16:23, 27 August 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Houma people

message: This is a wonderful page and has provided me with a lot of useful information. However, there are a lot of English grammar errors (non-matching subject and verb), and the style in places is rather awkward to read (not in the usual English sentence structure), particularly starting in the modern times section. I don't know if it would be helpful to provide line edits (though I don't think they'd fit in this space), or if there is someone at Wikipedia responsible for this, but I thought perhaps the entry should be flagged as "currently in progress" or something, until the appropriate edits can be made.

Talk:Genpei War

message: This war is essential to the narrative of Japanese history. It marks the beginning of the samurai as a major force, and in fact as the ruling class. The beginning of the Kamakura shogunate was the beginning of military rule, and the suppression of Imperial power which lasted for over 600 years. I shall endeavor to not assess my own articles, but I'm not sure if I can expect a passing editor to recognize the importance of this event... though I suppose it's probably mentioned somewhere in the article.
