Stub tag

edit

This looks like a list not an article so I took the stub tag off. Jeepday 17:12, 3 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

This article is still assessed as a stub, as can be seen from the WikiProject templates above. So the stub tag shouldn't have been removed if the assessment is still correct. (The only reason for removing a stub tag is if the article is not a stub, in which case the assessment needs to be changed as well.) 76.7.224.171 (talk) 13:26, 18 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Very poor list

edit

This list is in a very poor state, containing numerous errors and conflating Operation Marita with Operation 25. Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 09:46, 6 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Article scope and title

edit

This article scope and title is of limited value. IMHO it should include all Axis forces involved in the Balkans Campaign, and be at Axis order of battle for the Balkans Campaign. "in the Balkans" is too general, as it would include the occupation and counter-insurgency forces sent in after the invasions. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 03:12, 22 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

If the actually existing article and title are of limited value, why de-PROD? As it stands, it is completely redundant to Order of battle for the Battle of Greece and Axis order of battle for the invasion of Yugoslavia. Would your proposal see Axis order of battle for the invasion of Yugoslavia folded into this article, or would it remain a separate article? If the latter, then I hardly see a point. Just expanded the Greek order of battle article to include the Greco-Italian War and we are fully covered. Srnec (talk) 03:24, 22 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
This article should be Axis not solely German, and the sum of the Axis part of Order of battle for the Battle of Greece and Axis order of battle for the invasion of Yugoslavia, but explaining how the command of some elements were committed to the other after the first few days. I think a purely Axis orbat for the whole campaign is completely justified. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 05:30, 22 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
