List of Partisan detachments in Bosnia and Herzegovina (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Toolbox

This is a list of all the Yugoslav Partisan detachments established in Bosnia and Herzegovina during WWII, units that ranged in strength from just 16 guerillas to over 3,000. The list was developed from scratch last year and is currently assessed as BL. The content is largely based on the definitive 1982 history of the Partisans written by Anić, Joksimović and Gutić (in Serbo-Croat). All constructive comments are welcome.

Support: sorry, lists aren't my strong suite. I couldn't find much that stood out to me. I have the following suggestions: AustralianRupert (talk) 06:38, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • "dubious political loyalty and military value": probably best to attribute this quote in text. For instance, "7,000–8,000 fighters who were, according to Hoare, of "dubious political loyalty and military value"
  • the list might be a bit more visually appealing if the lead had a more iconic image...is there an image that is readily/widely associated with the Partisans? If so, you might consider putting it in the lead, and then maybe moving the map?
  • there is one dab link - "Prnjavor" - which should be corrected if possible
  • some of the Notes/footnotes start with capitals, but others don't. E.g. compare "also known..." with "One of the..."
  • Thanks for the review, Rupert. All done. I've added the B-H flag to the top of the article and moved the map down. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 01:37, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 01:22, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Would it be possible to make July uprising, Establishment of a uniform system of organisation and The "Volunteer Army" all one section with three subsections? Since these are all very short for stand-alone sections, it would probably be better if they were merged somehow. 23 editor (talk) 14:33, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Peacemaker67: Also, make sure that all four-digit numbers have commas (1000→1,000). 23 editor (talk) 16:44, 19 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks 23, all fixed. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 00:17, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Support There are too many sentence fragments that begin with a capital letter; they should either be turned into full sentences with final punctuation or the first letter should be made lower-case (preferably the former). LavaBaron (talk) 18:37, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • G'day LavaBaron. Could you clarify? Do you mean the comments in the table? Or elsewhere. It is a bit hard to address your oppose without more information. Thanks, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 01:21, 19 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
yes, in the table LavaBaron (talk) 01:22, 19 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
LavaBaron: I think I've addressed all of these. Let me know if I've missed any? Thanks, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 02:14, 19 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
'k, great, support LavaBaron (talk) 06:44, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support
    • All the usual tool checks revealed nothing (i.e. no dabs, images have alt text, external links work, no repeated links, Earwig is broken so couldn't check but I've no reason to believe there would be any issue here). (no action req'd).
    • Is there a typo here: "...began to organise militarily for resistance..." (to my ear it sounds like it is missing a word - perhaps "...organise military forces for resistance..." or something like that?). (action req'd)
    • I actually found the change to full sentences in the "Notes" column of the table to be distracting. I appreciate that this was made due to the cmts of another review above; however, to me use of sentence fragments here seemed logical and supported the objective of brevity (by its nature a feature of most tables). Indeed Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lists doesn't seem to mandate the use of either full sentences or sentence fragments, only requiring consistency b/n style chosen. Anyway this is just my opinion, no need to change anything of cse. (no action req'd) Anotherclown (talk) 00:22, 5 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
