Requested move 2 September 2015[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved to Edwin Ramsey. Jenks24 (talk) 09:20, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Edwin P. Ramsey → ? – Should be either Edwin Ramsey or Edwin Price Ramsey. Sources use either one of names, including the current title. The autobiography uses "Price"; some book, "P"; another book, neither. This might come down to divided usage. George Ho (talk) 01:04, 2 September 2015 (UTC) --Relisted.

Speedy close - Already moved. Shhhhwwww!! (talk) 18:23, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted move. Let's wait for results. --George Ho (talk) 04:14, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Four of the refs say Edwin Ramsey, vs. two for Edwin P. Ramsey, so I have no strong objection to the move. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:35, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Cavalry in 21st century[edit]

I wonder if some of the cavalry employments in the 21st century could be described as "charges"? — Brianhe (talk) 21:30, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
