Some of these seem oddly named...Battle of Great Britain? Isn't this just a couple of ships? What does Great Britain have to do with it? Adam Bishop 04:12, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I have never heard the name "Battle of Great Britain". I have always heard the air campaign called the Battle of Britain. Anyway it doesn't belong on this page, it was in 1940-41. Maproom (talk) 19:19, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Chilianwala and Chillanwalla

[edit]

In the Anglo-Sikh wars, there are two battles listed with very similar names. Chilianwala has a specific date, and some more specific information in its list description. Chillanwalla is in the same year, and has less information. I am wondering if these two might, in fact, be the same battle. Roy Al Blue 02:29, 9 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Fourth Quarter of 19th Century Clear!

[edit]

All of the battles listed for 1876-1900 have at least a stub for a page. Roy Al Blue 01:57, 12 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Indians vs Native Americans

[edit]

Nearly all the battles say Indians. wouldn't it be more accurate to say "Native American"?--Vercalos 03:31, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Usage of the term: Indian Mutiny

[edit]

One of the battles of 1857 'War of Independence' or rebellion refers to it as Indian Mutiny. Please remove the same.

Wikipedia calls this the "Indian rebellion". I have changed this article accordingly. Maproom (talk) 15:09, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
