Other Scottish players

Operation Punishment

[edit]

The Encyclopedia of Codenames of World War II (Routledge_ does not have a Strafe. It has Punishment (German Bestrafung, not Strafgericht) for the bombing of Belgrade only (6–9 April) and it has Projekt 25 for the invasion of Yugoslavia itself, a subdivision of Marita. Interestingly, Detlef Vogel has a paper titled (in part) Operation Strafgericht and Unternehmen 25 is the subject of an unpublished thesis by Franklyn Prieskop. Gerhard Weinberg, Germany and the Soviet Union, cites an OKH document from 30 March 1941 that uses "Unternehmen 25". I could go on, but one Osprey book does not make a case. Your citation for the Hitler quote is still incomplete. Srnec (talk) 01:23, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There's a couple of good books on the Nuremburg trials that go into detail about the atrocities of the the bombing of Belgrade and the Yugoslav invasion. If you want to change the info go ahead. I'm not sure but I think Strafegericht (plate of punishment) was a reference to the particularly harsh bombing of Belgrade and I'm not sure where it came from but it rings a bell. I'm sure you'll agree one of Hitler's gifts was propoganda and presentation and he loved giving operations names - britain: lion (changed to sea lion), greece: marita, soviet union: barbarossa - names with significance. I would say it seemed out of character for him to leave the yugoslav invasion as operation 25, especially after they'd internationally embarassed him. I would suggest to at least leave Strafe for the codename with operation 25 if you add it. I actually have a couple of books I've seen quite recently where Strafe is referred to as the codename for fuhrer directive number 25. I'll try and dig them out GlasgowBraveheart (talk) 18:39, 2 February 2018 (UTC) ~Ethan Hollander's book "Hegemony and the Holocaust" quote the "pitiless/unmerciful harshness" line from a meeting between the fuhrer and german high command in march 1941. It's a good book, very informative with alot of quotes and referencesGlasgowBraveheart (talk) 18:53, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm in love - thank you NNW GlasgowBraveheart (talk) 21:11, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
:o) Btw: I have to inform you that I nominated Template:Scotland Central Belt for speedy deletion cos there is no use for it now. NNW (talk) 21:21, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Fine with me :) Thank you so so so so much NNW GlasgowBraveheart (talk) 21:29, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
What was the problem? Moved some markers, is it better now, or are there positions off I didn't see? -Koppapa (talk) 17:45, 15 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
hi Koppapa, thanks for your changes. there was a problem getting a smaller, clearer map. I requested a new one from (the amazing) NordNordWest, I then messed up the template... but NNW kindly sorted that out too. So all sorted. Thanks for coming back to me :) GlasgowBraveheart (talk) 17:59, 15 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Twitter etc.

[edit]

We have very clear guidelines, and the links very clearly fail them. We list only one official site. If you disagree please read the guideline and the numerous discussions keeping up that decision on the talkpage of that (or even AN/I for that matter). If you think you have a case, please discuss it there and get consensus. Please stop adding them, they do not belong. —Dirk Beetstra T C 19:11, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dirk BeetstraI don't understand. please show me a direct link to a guideline where the twitter of a club cannot be added.. It's a direct link to the official clubs twitter and I cannot see anything that states it shouldn't be added. you previously left the club website and the scottish fa links. the scottish fa link only provided info already referenced in the article. I changed that to the twitter which is a far better informative source.

Scottish womens football teams' main source for info is usually twitter: {https://www.jaxmcmedia.co.uk/jax-mc-media-team} -"What tools do you find most helpful for getting scores or news stories? Twitter, FB and the web are the places to go for information. I would say Twitter is the best at covering 80% of the Women & Girl's teams in Scotland."

Hello WOSO editors! A few initiatives have been started with an emphasis on making more WOSO links blue (similar to the work that WikiProject Women in Red does) and filling in the gaps within various league, team, and player, etc. articles.

If you're interested in collaborating with others to make more links blue, take a look at the initiatives listed in the box below. Sign up at the bottom of an initiative page and help grow the lists, add potential references, resources, and create the articles ... or create your own initiative.

Did you know ...

WP:GNG takes precedence over WP:NFOOTY (which only includes the players in 1 active women's league)? Often times there is enough media coverage that meets WP:GNG or other notability guidelines. For more information, see WP:WOSO#Notability and be sure to tag the new article talk page with: {{WP Women's sport|footy=yes}}

Current and upcoming seasons for top-division leagues

Have some new articles in mind or see some that need improvement? Add them to the Open Tasks.

Has an article you worked on been nominated for deletion? See:

Want some tips, assistance, or resources from other WOSO editors?
Leave a message on the task force talk page.

Thank you for your continued contributions to articles related to women's football / soccer (WOSO)!
