Expansion Required - British Army Units Particiaption
editThe article needs a subject matter expert in relation to the expansion of the British Army Units participation. Can anyone assist? Regards --Newm30 (talk) 02:00, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
- Gday Newm30. AFAIK the British participation was fairly limited as 3RAR was the lead battalion. I have rewritten this one now and have included all the information I can find on the Brits from their official history. Hope this helps. Cheers. Anotherclown (talk) 23:55, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Staking my claim on what I'm sure will be another interesting account of Australian forces in action during the Cold War... Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 04:40, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
Finally got round to the detailed review...
Technical
- No dab or external link issues.
- Images have alt text.
Aside from my usual copyedit, a few points...
Infobox -- Not sure of standard and not too fussed as long as you're consistent, but we have in Belligerents "United Nations" bolded with a colon, followed by a bulleted list, and then we have in Units Involved "27th Brit Com Bde" unbolded without a colon, followed by a bulleted list. Should be consistent and, personally, I think the latter (unbolded without a colon) works fine.
- Yes that makes sense. Done. Anotherclown (talk) 08:43, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Clearance of the town
- The following morning the Australians remained in position, finding more than 150 North Korean dead within their defensive positions at daybreak. -- within whose defensive positions, the Australians' or the North Koreans'?
- Meanwhile, aerial reconnaissance subsequently reported the presence of North Korean tanks to the west of Chongju. -- "meanwhile" inplies more-or-less simultaneously, while "subsequently" suggests afterwards; can't both be right so choose which is more appropriate and lose the other... ;-)
- Appears inconsistent representation of numbers, for instance you have "10" and "12" early on, but then "thirty-six" later -- I assume you're trying to stick to the rule of spelling out single-digit numbers and using figures for anything bigger, so perhaps best check throughout to ensure consistency.
- Do we know who fired the shells that wounded Green? As written it could be taken as enemy or friendly fire so if we know let's spell it out.
- Done. Anotherclown (talk) 08:43, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
- Cool; I put "around dusk" back to the beginning of the sentence because at the end it sounded like a location, not a time... ;-) Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 09:07, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
- Done. Anotherclown (talk) 08:43, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Images -- all appear appropriately licensed.
Summary -- looks very good, mate, if you can just address the points above I'll be happy to pass. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 11:11, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
