Thank you for assessing. I have edited several footnotes in 772d Expeditionary Airlift Squadron. I agree with your comment (which was deleted along with the assessment from the request page before I saw it). Hope the change is what you wanted.

Hi,

I approached you to ask about an article related to military history since you are an expert. I was working on a draft about a battle but i was confused on what should i name it, the battle itself contains other engagements and actions along and isn't either stated as independent from other engagements. So in this case the source states:-

"Captain Hussain Khan had been appointed as commander of Home Guards for operations in the Sudhnuti-Poonch sector. The news of the carnage at Bagh by Dogra troops on August 26, 1947, reached Rawalakot the same afternoon. The next night, Captain Hussain Khan collected 200 Home Guards and notables at Miral Gala (Rawalakot), and declared war against the Dogra ruler. He administered an oath to the Mujahideen to fight for accession to the dominion of Pakistan at all costs"

So should i name this a revolt or a campaign (Rawalakot revolt ? Rawalakot Campaign). since he rebelled against the state and then led his forces in a series of engagements untill death

@Rahim231: I am not familiar with the conflicts between Pakistan and India, so I cannot be much help. An unsuccessful attempt to overthrow the existing authority might be called a revolt, while a successful operation could be called a campaign. However, this is not a rule. You may call it either a revolt (or rebellion or insurrection) or a campaign. Djmaschek (talk) 17:50, 27 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

It was successful attempt the areas fell to the local forces, i think i would go with naming it a campaign. Rahim231 (talk) 10:07, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

I tagged the 4th Louisiana Infantry Battalion talk page for using American English. I believe any article on an American military unit should use American English. That being said (and having nothing to do with the assessment of the article) I believe the form "promoted Major" to be British, while "promoted to Major" to be American usage. But maybe, that's just me. Nice article, by the way. Lineagegeek (talk) 23:52, 31 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

"Promoted to major" does sound better to my American ear. Djmaschek (talk) 00:04, 1 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

The assessment on this article was made very late on August 31 on UTC. If you wish to do so, you can add it to the contest entries for August. I have been closing the contest month a day or two after the end of the month to be sure there are no late entries that qualify for that month. It seems to me that it would also qualify as a September entry instead because of the late notice of the assessment. We have had one or two borderline situations that were carried over to the next month this year. I asked Hawkeye7 about this some months ago. As I understood his explanation, the bottom line is that we do not want to deprive an editor of a contest entry because of a very late assessment on the last day of the month that cannot reasonably be expected to be seen before the end of the month or one that carries over to the next month when the request for assessment was made early enough to be addressed in a month but was not done until after the end of that month. (Hope that makes sense.) Donner60 (talk) 01:33, 1 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

I will enter it in the August contest. It won't affect the 1st and 2nd place entries since they are far ahead of me in points. One reason that I'd like to get the credit now is that, if I wait, I might forget to add it to my next month's entries. Djmaschek (talk) 02:42, 1 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
