Position of labels and parameters[edit]

How to control it? Want to move website URL up out of "Related articles" to below "Headquarters" label. Quercus solaris (talk) 00:58, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request[edit]

There is a request posted at WT:MILHIST to add an "anniversaries" parameter to this infobox, similar to the one in the {{Infobox military unit}}. Thanks - ^theWOLFchild 04:31, 28 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Adding the most senior enlisted NCOs to the template[edit]

I think that the most senior enlisted NCOs should be added to the template. This is currently being done at United States Armed Forces and British Armed Forces, probably amongst others. Pinging the latest editors of this page for thoughts. (Disclaimer, I am new to editing templates and proposing edits.) @Zackmann08 @Skjoldbro @Beland @Melbguy05 @嘉傑.

@Dawkin Verbier: Those two articles embed a child infobox into {{Infobox national military}} in the header Leadership enabling custom labels such as "Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff" or "Vice-Chief of the Defence Staff". There would be numerous titles used by national militaries. I think continuing to use a child infobox is the easiest way to include extra Leadership ranks (labels) into the infobox. Other editors may have a different view. You can start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history for their thoughts on adding more custom parameters to the Leadership header.

Requesting edit[edit]

~~Would it be possible to change "Percent of GDP" to "% of GDP"? Percent is primarily US English, % would remove any WP:ENGVAR issues. Stolitz (talk) 02:32, 16 August 2023 (UTC)~~ Ban-evasion by WP:Sockpuppet investigations/TheCurrencyGuy 184.152.68.190 (talk) 03:18, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
