Reference to Australian number 3 Hospital

I was led to believe that it was no 2 Australian General Hospital (2AGH) not no 3. Does anyone know if I’m correct? My apologies for editing earlier without going through the talk session. I’m new to Wikipedia & didn’t understand the protocols. Thanks Mark Waltermarkq (talk) 04:07, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It is not a matter of going through the talk page (although that is what the talk page is here for) but of every edit having a reliable source (Wikipedia:Verifiability). "I was led to believe" doesn't meet our standards. Any edit without a reliable source will get reverted and you'll get a polite note to post your sources on the talk page. You should always come armed with reliable sources. Anyway, I have looked at the sources, as well as the war diaries, and have rewritten the passage.
