@Indy beetle: At what point do you submit an article for review? I'm not familiar with this process. - MTWEmperor (talk • contribs) 02:32, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Technically I have the power to simply move it into article mainspace if you think it is ready. There is, however, the question of possibly merging material from Netherlands in World War II. -Indy beetle (talk) 04:24, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I assume you mean move some of the material to this one. Skimming it looks like some of the East Indies stuff could be moved. I think it's getting close. The only other thing would be to track down the proper infobox templates for the page.- MTWEmperor (talk • contribs) 06:45, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Indy beetle: G'day, Indy, not sure if you are still keen on this draft, but I have expanded it a bit more and added some references in relation to the Pacific area; unfortunately I can't help with the other sections. Overall, I think it would be a viable stand alone topic and it could probably be published now (although, obviously there is still room for improvement, though); while there would be some overlap with the broader articles mentioned above, I feel this article could be developed along similar lines to the GA-rated Free Belgian forces. Thoughts? Might be worth pinging the Milhist co-ords to see their thoughts, also. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 04:36, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@AustralianRupert: Sorry for the delay getting back to you. I've long since moved on to other work but as it stands I think it would be perfectly acceptable to go ahead and publish this article with a structure similar to the Free Belgian Forces. -Indy beetle (talk) 05:21, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for getting back to me. I have added all the sources I can now. It still obviously needs work, but I think there is enough there to support a stand alone article. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 08:39, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Did a cheeky little drive-by, virus-scare-quarantined ce, auto ed, cite scan, checked for dupe wikilinks. All suggestive, rv as desired. Keith-264 (talk) 13:14, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Made a start on ce the text. Keith-264 (talk) 16:21, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
