Review

If you add an infobox, it will get you a B3=y and C class. It's a good and interesting article, but it's fairly scanty (B2=n). Did the mounted artillerymen participate in any specific battles? What exactly did they do? Djmaschek (talk) 22:56, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review Djmaschek, I've added the infobox. I've pretty much exhausted all the sources I have so can't add much more. I've not seen them come up in any orders of battle - though there were relatively few at this late stage of the war. I'll keep my eyes open in the future though, cheers - Dumelow (talk) 00:21, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

C class. The amount of coverage needed for B class is highly arbitrary. I believe that more is needed. You may try for better luck from a different reviewer. BTW: I moved the photo to the infobox and added some flags. Djmaschek (talk) 01:02, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the edits. I'm not worried about the class rating, just nice to get some outside input into the article. Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 01:51, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
