Changes

Whoever made those changes really made the article look much worse. The full table was more consistent. Also, there is no need to add all those images of the Colombian Army ranks as they make it difficult for a reader to understand the difference. I suggest to reverse those changes.

Hi, Camilo; well, the main reason was to be able to split the groups and reuse/transclude them at their independent pages as well. While I agree in that I wasn't convinced on using the multiple rows of insignias for EJC, I didnt want to lose the work another editor had made for those svgs in EJC & FAC, and the previous table looked somewhat unfinished. I'll give it a shot at 'prettyfying' it a little later on, and I'm sure we can work on something over the next few days that leaves us both satisfied. Feel free to follow up w me at my discussion page if you want to. Cheers! Iceman0108 (talk) 04:28, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to restore the Army section to a basic row with the basic military ranks. Any user not familiar with the concept of arms might be confused by the additional engineers or infantry insignias. I would recommend you to remove the additional insignias and leave just one row as it was in the original page and add them to the Colombian army article. Also, the transclusions should have the layout I originally created as it gives a very easy visual understanding of every branch (air force, army, etc). If you dont do it I will do it at some point when I have time. Thanks --Camilo Sanchez (talk) 17:12, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
