Comment. Should Duxford Aerodrome and possibly Parachute Regiment and Airborne Forces Museum be included in this topic? Rambo's Revenge (talk) 23:50, 17 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not necessary since they are each covered under the other articles. To clarify the issue, the topic could be named "Imperial War Museum network" instead. Nergaal (talk) 00:18, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I would also say not; Duxford Aerodrome is about the (mostly wartime) history of the airfield, not the museum as such, and the Para and ABF Museum is organisationally separate to the Imperial War Museum. --IxK85 (talk) 09:17, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This GTC covers five monitors built for the Swedish and Norwegian Navies during the 1860s. They were designed with the help of John Ericsson, the Swedish-born inventor who had designed the original USS Monitor for the US Navy. The ships were generally kept in reserve, commissioned only briefly during the year, if at all. The last ships weren't sold off until after World War I and most were converted to barges.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:41, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The GTC covers the first class of Russian dreadnoughts. They were built for service in the Baltic Sea and delivered during World War I. They had a quiet war, but joined the Soviets during the February 1917 Revolution and fought in the Russian Civil War. One ship was transferred to the Black Sea Fleet in 1930 and another was badly damaged by fire when it was mothballed, so that only two ships were assigned to the Baltic Fleet when the Winter War of 1939 began. The ships could do little as the ice began to form not long after the start of the war. They were trapped in Leningrad after the Germans invaded in 1941 and one had its bow blown off, but was refloated and used as a floating battery. The one ship in the Black Sea provided fire support during the early stages of the Siege of Sevastopol, but was withdrawn from combat in early 1942 as it was too valuable to risk.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 03:55, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Good topic The issue about the national symbols is very touchy in Japan, especially with the national flag and the national anthem. There is not a lot of English language material about both symbols and also about the law that was created in 1999 to make these symbols official. While there are many symbols of Japan, the flag and anthem are the most known (and heated) and only were discussed in this law. Flag of Japan is an FA, Act on National Flag and Anthem (Japan) and Kimigayo are GA's. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 06:15, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Neither of the two survivors saw combat during the war. One ship was towed away when the Whites evacuated the Crimea in 1920 and was not scrapped until the 1930s, but the remaining ship was scrapped by the Soviets a decade earlier.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 22:10, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I know I am not the major contributor, but this is not a nomination proposal, but a merge proposal. There are three topics nominated this year ( that encompass most of this. But as listed above, these topics appear to be fine as merged. Since "The Invincibles" topic, it appears to be a significant movement towards merging together small topics into broader, well defined topic. The advantage of this proposal is that the last battle is also included, together with the main article. What do people think? Nergaal (talk) 04:18, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. I think that to be complete, a topic on the Wars should also include articles on the major generals, like Leonidas I, and sources, like the Histories. Ucucha 06:18, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Struck my oppose; I won't support until a subject expert has approved the topic. Ucucha 13:14, 18 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Also, a book is needed that covers the entire proposed topic. Ucucha 13:25, 18 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Nergaal (talk) 00:54, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per Ucucha. You might could construct a topic around "Battles of the Greco-Persian Wars", (You'd likely need an FL) but as nominated, I must oppose. Courcelles 07:11, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I've renamed it as suggested. As for the FL, I don't really see that appropriate. There would be some 10 entries in a table that would be well included in the main article; to me that sounds like a content fork and should not stand as a separate article. Nergaal (talk) 18:17, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This format is similar to that in other current topics - specifically Classes of supernovae, Physical geography of Somerset, and Towns in Trafford - which use the main article to define a slightly narrower topic that that of the central article. Nergaal (talk) 18:25, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The topic can be later expanded to include other major personalities in the wars, at which point the title can be switched to the overview topic. Nergaal (talk) 13:24, 18 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Still oppose. This format necessitates either a list or a timeline to be added. Courcelles 01:14, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Can anybody give their opinion about merging or not these topics? Nergaal (talk) 04:53, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

These two ships were the most modern battleships in the Russian Black Sea Fleet at the start of World War I. They successfully engaged the much larger and more powerful battlecruiser Yavuz on several occasions during the first year of the war without significant damage to themselves. They were relegated to second-line duties when the Russian dreadnoughts began to enter service at the end of 1915 and sold for scrap by the Soviets as hopelessly obsolete.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 23:41, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Often referred to as super-destroyers in English-language works, these ships were nearly the size of light cruisers. Built just before World War II, neither ship fired a shell at Axis ships during the war, but both were present when the British attacked at Mers-el-Kebir in July 1940, hoping to destroy the French ships there lest they get turned over to the Germans by the Vichy government. Both ships eventually sought refuge in Toulon where they were scuttled by the French to prevent them from falling into German hands.

This GTC concerns three Russian dreadnoughts reasserted Russian naval superiority in the Black Sea during World War I after it had been lost by the introduction of the ex-German battlecruiser Yavuz into the Black Sea when the war began. The first ship was destroyed by a magazine fire a year after commissioning and the second ship was scuttled in 1918 to prevent her from being turned over to the Germans according to the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. The last ship saw four different changes of ownership before the British turned her over to the Whites during the Russian Civil War. She led the evacuation from the Crimea in 1920 and took refuge in the French North African port of Bizerte. She was eventually scrapped by the French to pay her docking fees, but her guns were removed and eventually saw service with Finland and Germany in World War II.

The largest Soviet warships completed until after World War II, four of the ships fought in the war while the other two were still building in the Far East. Two were trapped by the Germans during the Siege of Leningrad while the other two transported troops and supplies during the Sieges of Odessa and Sevastopol. Only a couple ships were fully modernized in the 1950s while the others were relegated to roles as training and missile test ships before being scrapped.

While there are plenty of photos on Commons, the vast majority lack proper sourcing so their licenses are suspect. The only two real copyright-free images are a Soviet stamp (at [1]) and this photo of a model of the ship.

*~~Oppose~~ "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" appeared on Like a Virgin. It doesn't matter when it was released as a single. Therefore it fails criterion 1.d. Adabow (talk · contribs) 06:59, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Criterion 1d states about gaps in the topic. However, it is important that you understand that "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" is a single from Something To Remember and not from Like a Virgin. Therefore it is suitable for the GTC of Soemthing to Remember. One article in two topics doesnot make any sense. "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" is an album track from Like a Virgin which has no relation to the "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" article which is a remix of the original Rose Royce song. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 07:34, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - So, to clarify, are they two different songs, coincidentally with the same name? Adabow (talk · contribs) 09:33, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    - I think Legolas is saying that they are two different recordings of the same song, the version that was a single in the 90s being a wholly different recording to the one on this album, although I might have misunderstood. That begs the more general question, if an album happens to include a cover of a song which has a WP article, would it automatically need to be included in a topic on that album? For example, would a topic on "Version" need to include all twelve songs that have WP articles, even though less than half were released as singles.......? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 19:23, 18 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      - The Something to Remember single is a remix of the Like a Virgin track. Therefore "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" belongs in this GT and any future Something to Remember GT. Adabow (talk · contribs) 19:47, 18 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
        Please see the GTC of Madonna (album) here where it was decided that The Virgin Tour is more appropriate to be included in the Like a Virgin GTC, although the tour supported the Madonna album, since it coincides more with the LAV era. Similar for the LDLHA song. It is a single from Soemthing to Remember, not from this one. Another example I can show you is Britney Spears' album Blackout and Circus. Both of them has the same song "Radar", but the song was released as a single from Circus. Hence it mentions only the labum name as Circus in the infobox of the song article. Moreover, as I have pointed out before, the version released by Madonna is a remix of teh Rose Royce song, and the one in Like a Virgin is a cover, both are infinitely different. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 08:24, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll change to neutral, as I'm still not convinced. While it may be a single from StR, it is still a song from LaV. If either Blackout or Circus were to be sent to FTC, "Radar" would need to be a GA, as it appears on both albums. Lastly, I don't really understand what the difference between the remix and the cover. From the "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" article, the LaV version is a cover, and the StR version is the LaV song remixed. I don't really see how the remixing of the song excludes it from this topic. Anyway, it was released in Japan in 1986, therefore it was a single then, too. Adabow (talk · contribs) 08:50, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I do understand the points you are trying to make. You will be glad to know that I am making LDLHA a GA, just will take another day. That should solve all the problems. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 09:11, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support now. Looks good. Adabow (talk · contribs) 09:33, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – I have nominated "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" for GA. It will be done soon I hope. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 12:27, 22 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Love Don't Live Here Anymore" is a GA now and added to the topic. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 05:41, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support, although that GA promotion was surprisingly fast. Nergaal (talk) 05:50, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Closed with a consensus to promote.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 15:27, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
