More appropriate name?[edit]

Would Category:Australian military personnel killed in service be a better name for this category? "In action" seems too casual, and seems to imply that they died while actually fighting (c.f. Kovco). Mark Chovain 23:20, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, killed in service would also apply to those who died in peacetime in training accidents etc. Perhaps Category:Australian military personnel killed in active service would better express the concept behind the category. Cheers, Mattinbgn\^talk 04:48, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I like it. I'll leave it a few days, and change it over if there are no objections. Mark Chovain —Preceding comment was added at 04:53, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
