New article on the New Guinea Air Warning Wireless Company

G'day and well done on creating this new article. Quite an interesting topic which I'll admit I didn't know anything about until I saw your new article linked on the Australian commandos article. A couple of suggestions to (hopefully) help you improve it:

• You have added an extensive reference list which is a good start, but pls consider adding some more in-line citations (at least one at the end of each paragraph is generally considered appropriate; however, if you use multiple sources for different parts of a paragraph you should cite them all, placing the corresponding reference next to the text it supports). Pls see WP:INCITE for more information on this; and
• Just wondering if the name of the article should be moved. Currently it is at New Guinea Air Warning Wireless, would it be more appropriate to move it to somewhere like: New Guinea Air Warning Wireless Company for instance (or even something else)? What are your thoughts on that?

All the best. Anotherclown (talk) 10:15, 19 August 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the input. AustralianRupert has done a far whack of cleaning up. I'd started it in 08, but forgotten it, lost my job last Mon, so started back from scratch hahahaha

• Starting with your second point - The unit is generally known as the New Guinea Air Warning Wireless.....Company is usually dispensed with, I believe due to the "irregular" nature of the work, and the fact they were making it up for themselves and "adjusting/bending" regulations to get the job done. In the same way the Independent of the independent company is also rarely mentioned, even though that is one of the most startling features surrounding the unit, as they were seen to be in the same mould as the new (yet to be formally named) Commando Company's.
• The extensive reference list is due to the fact most references cross over and back each other up. It is difficult to provide a citation for each paragraph or even small sections/sentences - I have added three where I could.....The whole section on equipment is a mash of a very concise article with no way of referencing independent points - and the original compiler of that historical article passed away many years ago.

What I was able to copy and compile I have in an open text file, so I'll try and go back through and try and adjust that....I will need to borrow all the books again (and have some sent from interstate collections) and fully read them, and find some spare change to purchase copies of the manuscripts etc.

I have a personal interest in this little known unit, as my Grandfather was a member, and hope that more and more people learn what little we can tell them. They had massive input in the defence of Australia and the FIRST defeat of the Japanese force at Kokoda could not have occurred without them.Enderwigginau (talk) 10:43, 19 August 2015 (UTC)

I'd also like to welcome you to Wikipedia. Thanks for starting this article as well. Nick-D (talk) 12:06, 19 August 2015 (UTC)

Rewording the "Equipment" section

Hello again. I've just reworded [1] the "Equipment" section as I noticed it was very similar to the source you used [2]. This is a very easy mistake to make especially when starting out but just be aware that there are policies on Wikipedia that prevent doing this for your future edits - pls see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing etc. Anyway if you have any questions about this pls let me know. All the best. Anotherclown (talk) 00:11, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

Cheers, I didn't want to reword it too much and destroy what it actually said, and when I found the author had died, I shelved it as I was looking for someone else to confirm the technical details.... Enderwigginau (talk) 10:43, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the extra references

Those extra refs and the material you added today was good (esp the Damien Parer photo connection, I'd been meaning to add that myself). BTW I'm hoping to get to the library tomorrow after work (or this weekend at a pinch) so I *might* be able to track down the remaining "citation needed" tags depending on the availability of the books in question. Will see what comes up. Anotherclown (talk) 12:05, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

There is only one "citation needed" ref left and I've read the source twice today but can't find it now!! The Parer photo of the Samarai OP in the AWM collection probably needs a run. I was going to add the NGAWW connection to the Parer page to cross link them too. Enderwigginau (talk) 13:21, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

Hello again. I found a source for one of the "citation needed" tags but could find anything for the Simpson quote unfortunately. I've left a suggestion on the talk page. Cheers. Anotherclown (talk) 08:15, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

March Madness 2017

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)

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.

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive

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.

I'm working on a project for the Australian Army (I'm a currently serving Officer) and i was hoping to get in touch with User: AnotherClown (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Anotherclown). I can see that you messaged him. Are you able to assist in getting me in contact with him? I'm at [email protected]. Kind regards Your Mother1919 (talk) 06:47, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

• AnotherClown has retired from Wikipedia and I don’t know how to contact him. Enderwigginau (talk) 07:47, 3 May 2020 (UTC)

Thank you

I really appreciate your work in getting my Jack Nissenthall article up and running. It is also appreciated that you used my original wording for the opening sections, section titles and core references. Your sections of Jack's selection, actions on the day and subsequent life is excellent. I have been off WP for a good while so I was very pleasantly surprised to see it. I trust you will have no objections to my adding it to my articles created/improved list on my user page. I would like to further expand the article, especially the Mountbatten denial of Jack's expendability and few other minor details. I would look forward to working with you on this to improve article status from start class. Regards Simon Adler (User_talk:Simon Adler)

Not a problem Simon. The draft got deleted so I had the gave it reinstated. I didn’t want the work you put in to be lost. Definitely put it in your articles created, and work away on adding to it. I need to get another copy of Green Beach etc and reread it all, and find a bit more on his life after the war. There’s currently a witch-hunt going on over use of copyright images, so I’m being harassed because I upped a Commons editor for deleting some of my images, so now they’re just reporting everything of mine, so I guess I’ll just go back to words and leave the pictures to others.Enderwigginau (talk) 10:28, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

That's very much appreciated Enderwigginau. I do hope we can work together on stuff. I am interested in expanding WW2 ration coverage on WP beyond the U.S material. I have an article idea in my sandbox for the Commonwealth 14-in 1 ration, I have been reading up on some interesting Australian rations including the jungle ration. Dunno if it's your thing but you're welcome if it's an interest. Copyvio stuff is such a bloody minefield, and our chums over at commons have a bit of a history, as I recall.. say no more. Good to meet you mate. Drop over on my talkpage anytime. You are welcome. Cheers! Simon Adler (talk) 01:35, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
