Categorisation of Canadian military
Is there any reason to have Category:Canadian military formations and Category:Canadian military units? Geoff/Gsl 00:00, 18 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Well, I'm not a military man, but from what I have learned about military organization, (a little knowledge is a dangerous thing), formations and units are not the same thing. As I understand it, units are the basic building blocks, and formations are formed out them or out of other formations. The distinction appears to be important to military folks. However, as I said, I'm not an expert in the matter, so if I'm way off base, I could be persuaded to consolidate the two into one category.--Indefatigable 01:43, 18 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Good idea. I'm pasting our discussion into Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military.--Indefatigable 13:57, 18 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Why did you remove aviators from several of the pilots? Now they are no longer listed within the aviator pages. PPGMD

Hi Geoff - just wondering about the layout for specifications and related content. I really think that at the moment we ought to be sticking to just one standard, lest we end up with the hopeless muddle that resulted from the continuous tinkering that followed the adoption of the data table. --Rlandmann 23:08, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
