Welcome to Milhist![edit]
Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.
A few features that you might find helpful:
- Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
- The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can watchlist it if you are interested, or you can add it directly to your user page by copying the following: {{WPMILHIST Announcements}}.
- Important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
- The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, writing contests, and article logistics.
- We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
- We've developed a style guide that covers article structure and content, template use, categorization, and many other issues of interest.
- If you're looking for something to work on, there are many articles that need attention, as well as a number of review alerts.
- The project has a stress hotline available for your use.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask any of the project coordinators or any other experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome, and we are looking forward to seeing you around! Roger Davies talk 15:19, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Action of 9 August 1780[edit]
Thanks for writing. I'm wondering if you've ever come across a (geographic) name for this engagement. I believe I've seen it as "Battle of Cape Santa Maria" after Cabo de Santa Maria (Cape Verde) — not, confusingly, the mainland Portuguese cape of the same name, which gave its name to a naval action of 1804. Any chance you could verify this? Albrecht (talk) 01:37, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

Edit warring[edit]
I'd like to draw your attention to Wikipedia's policy on edit warring, which you've been violating on both Trafalgar order of battle and casualties and Battle of Trafalgar. You need to be very careful about reverting other editors more than once; unless it's obvious vandalism, you're likely to be blocked if it continues. EyeSerenetalk 18:19, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Battle of San Juan (1625)[edit]
I read your article and it is very good. I removed the "main article" link which you added to the "Military history of Puerto Rico", because it gives the impression that the contents were borrowed or derived from your article and that is not so. Instead, I moved the link to your article to the "See also" section where it is supposed to go. The image which you uploaded of the Battle of San Juan is fantastic. Keep up the good work.

New articles[edit]
Greetings! You have done some nice articles recently and I hope you will continue that way :) I tried to edit them because they are in the wrong tense and have some grammatical mistakes but I myself don't have proficiency level in English and suggest that you ask an English speaker to review them. There were one or two sentences that I could not understand... Also, in the article Capture of Richard Hawkins I have added the English flagships in the infobox as a galleon, if that is wrong, you can correct it. Regards, --Gligan (talk) 18:12, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

España en el Palatinado[edit]
Hola Pietje96. He estado leyendo el mensaje, y respecto de los dos aspectos planteo lo siguiente:
- Las diecisiete Provincias no están mostrando límites actuales, de hecho se puede apreciar que no aparece el obispado de Lieja. Sin embargo, no tiene mejor solución, el mapa mudo no ofrece posibilidades para mejores detalles, pero es que además el mapa del imperio es derivado de otro archivo svg que está realizado con Inkscape, y con la vectorización todavía se pierden más detalles.
- A pesar que la información es muy interesante, sin embargo, de forma conceptual el mapa no representa conquistas temporales en una guerra en curso, porque una cosa es el territorio y otra es el frente de guerra, sobre todo para el caso de España, que intervino en tantos frentes. La campaña del Palatinado es eso, una campaña militar, y esas fortificaciones tienen una existencia coyuntural y circunstancial en el marco de la guerra de los 30 años y en la guerra contra las Provincias Unidas.
- [1] In July 1630, the Spanish handed over most of their German forts, including Lingen, to the emperor and the Catholic League. Only Rheinberg, now thier chief stronghold on the Rhine, was retained. Also, forces were withdrwan from their garrisons in the Lower Palatinate.
- [2] Nevertheless, very soon after Olivares uttered these words, the Spanish garrison - to the amazement of the Dutch - marched out of Lingen, leaving ther fortress in the hands of imperialist troops. By late 1630, as Aytona reported to the king, the only Spanish garrison which remained on the right bank of the Rhine was that of Düsseldorf, capital of Berg and Residenz of the dukes of Jülich-Cleves. Pfaffenmütze was dismantled and abandoned by its Spanish garrison, in September 1630, not under pressure from the elector of Cologne but out of sheer strategic necessity.[...] [3] With the Dutch capture of Rheinberg and Orsoy, in the summer of 1633, the Spanish hegemony in north-west Germany was a thing of the past.
Incluso aunque esas fortificaciones no tuvieran que ver con una guerra, eso tampoco las convierte en enclaves. De hecho, la Monarquía española tenía guarniciones en otros territorios, como en Italia (Piacenza [4], Mónaco, Sabionetta, Corregio, [5] Niza o Villafranca [6]) y eso no las convierte en territorio español. De otra manera, sería como hacer un mapa de Estados Unidos con las bases de Irak o Afganistán. Un saludo. Trasamundo (talk) 23:50, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
- Hola de nuevo. He estado comprobando ciertos comentarios, y en efecto hay que distinguir unos sitios de otros. Por un lado existieron una serie de guarniciones militares enfocadas no como afirmación de soberanía sino en un marco de una coyuntura bélica. De entre ellas, hay unos determinados puntos que por su importancia sí contaban con un gobierno, y éstos puntos sí pueden considerarse como enclaves, sólo he hallado tres: Rheinberg, Orosy y Wesel.[7][8][9] Por cierto, los Países Bajos no eran un reino, y por tanto, no tenían virreyes, y además esas plazas fueron perdidas hacia 1630 de manos de los holandeses, no de los franceses hacia 1670.
- Respecto de la Fosa Eugeniana, en absoluto veo que debe ser incluida dentro de las posesiones españolas. Su razón de ser es bélica, no para afirmar soberanía. Y no es un acontecimento aislado, porque de forma coetánea, los españoles aseguraron la ruta a Flandes con fortificaciones militares en la Valtelina. El principado de Piombino sería otro ejemplo de guarniciones militares, en este caso para controlar la ruta marítima Nápoles-Génova, ahora bien, hay una diferencia sustancial, que en 1621 el emperador otorgó el feudo del principado Piombino al rey de España. Además las líneas defensivas no fueron algo extraordinario, considerarlas como parte del país que las llevó a cabo nos daría cosas tan singulares como que la línea de Torres Vedras pertenecería al imperio británico o la línea Gustav al III Reich.
- Por otra parte, se da el hecho fundamental de las limitaciones técnicas de poder incluir tales enclaves, del mismo modo que no se puede colocar a Mazalquivir, o la misma Llivia. Sobre todo cuando tales presencias en el Palatinado no eran sui iuris, sino dependientes de los Países Bajos, donde ya es bastante complicado hacer unos mejores contornos con áreas más grandes y mejor definidas como Limburgo.
- En otro orden de cosas, una de las políticas de commons commons:Commons:Project scope/Neutral point of view es que los mapas subidos a commons no deben cumplir necesariamente con las políticas de wikipedia, pero cuando esos mapas tienen que emplearse en las páginas de wikipedia sí deben cumplir las políticas de wikipedia. El mapa del imperio español al estar basado en referencias fiables, acorde a la política de WP:VER, no representa pretensiones de soberanía ni áreas de influencia, como se debatió en su momento, ya que la definición de esos términos, y el subsiguiente alcance territorial daba bastantes quebraderos de cabeza por continuas violaciones de la política de WP:NOR. Además, este mapa representa varias épocas distintas y a la vez, y no es equiparable a los que representan un periodo más concreto de tiempo.
- Asímismo, la redacción del artículo debe estar en consecuencia con la bibliografía del tema del artículo. ¿Realmente existe una atención tan detallada y semejante dentro de todo el contexto del imperio español?, yo creo que no. Si en general la bibliografía del imperio no presta atención detallada a este asunto, entonces el artículo debe obrar en consecuencia, eso no quiere decir que no se deba poner nada, sino no excederse. Otra cosa sería ubicarlos dentro del contexto de la guerra de Flandes o de la guerra de los treinta años, donde tendría pleno sentido, y con una serie de mapas más detallados describir las distintas fases de los conflictos, no sólo desde la influencia española, sino también desde todas las demás, de una forma acorde a WP:NPOV. Saludos. Trasamundo (talk) 20:19, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
- Un mapa de la guerra de los 30 años [10] del primer periodo no debe incluir únicamente las campañas españolas, sino también todas las demás en todo el imperio, no solo en el Palatinado; un mapa de los Países Bajos incluye los cambios territoriales del periodo [11][12]. Pero parece ser que lo que planteas es hacer un mapa de la campaña del Palatinado, para el artículo determinado, en tal caso no es únicamente indicar las fortalezas españolas, sino también las distintas campañas de los ejércitos y el reparto del poder en el Palatinado tras ser puesto el Elector Palatino tras el bando del Imperio, de lo contrario sería contrario a la política de no neutralidad. Saludos. Trasamundo (talk) 20:21, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Naming a victory[edit]
Hi, should we deduce from this image File:Placa del panteón.JPG that the Action of 9 August 1780 might be known in Spain as Combate de las Azores? Perhaps we ought to find a basis for a move, considering the engagement seems rather more substantial than the single-ship actions or skirmishes usually filed as "Action of Day Month Year." Albrecht (talk) 01:25, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
Blockade[edit]
Dear pietje, you are right. I suppose, after all that it is a semantic argument that will make little difference to the article itself. It is, by the way, a good article as are a great many of your other contributions. All the best, Ian 14:43, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Re. [13]: excuse me, but how do you know? I'll be more than glad to retract that deletion discussion if we have clear evidence about the status of the painting, but you must be seeing something I'm not seeing there. – Right now I can't even verify there ever was a painter by the name of Mariano Badía.

- Update: there seems to be one Mariano Badía Sanmartín (1901–1986) [14]. Is that the one you mean? In that case, it wouldn't of course be PD yet. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:02, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply. I'm honestly still a bit confused, because the picture you uploaded doesn't look like a colored engraving at all (more like a watercolor), but if the print catalog identifies it properly as a work of 1872, that's fine. Could you add the info to the image page, with a citation of the catalogue? Fut.Perf. ☼ 15:26, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
Actually, on reflection, I think I now know why I had such a bad feeling about that image: it's actually wildly inaccurate, historically. Those ships look nothing like early 16th century ships. The hulls are much more like the galleons of almost a hundred years later, and even at that time, only very few of the very largest ships would have had two gun decks with this many cannons. Fut.Perf. ☼ 18:17, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
- Ah, good, if we agree on that, I can just delete it. Thanks for your response. Fut.Perf. ☼ 19:18, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
- Oh BTW, sorry I forgot to notify you, I've had to delete one more: this one, credited to an Osprey Publishing book and its illustrator, was evidently modern and as such copyrighted. Fut.Perf. ☼ 19:24, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

March Madness 2017[edit]
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 the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

July 2017[edit]
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on American Revolutionary War. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 23:51, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017.

User group for Military Historians[edit]
Greetings,
"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians.

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive[edit]
G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:
- tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
- adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
- updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
- creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various 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 scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.
