[edit] Missing links

There arn't linKs for EVERY millitary item on Wikipedia... someone correct this?

Trying, trying. In some places, it's probably more appropriate to delete what is here and replace it with a link to an already-existing or newly-created list.

[edit] Deleting variant links

I deleted links to various weapon variants underneath Small arms and firearms and replaced them with links to various lists. Feel free to revert back and leave a note why on this page, but I feel that by having links to lists instead of variants we only need to maintain a single page (the list page) instead of this page and the list page. If we're only including variants at all, we should be including every variant. Surgo 19:47, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)

Which reminds me, here's my way of dealing with lists and proper alphabetization. Lists should go first, and then alphabetize normally. Example:

• base
  • List of base
  • some variant
    • List of some variant
    • something underneath variant
  • some variant2

...etc

It seems good to me. Comments? Surgo 20:12, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Major edit.

I made a fairly major edit to this article as it was all over the place and fairly unclear. Please discuss grievances and complaints here before going about with a revert war. Thanks. Midster 17:48, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

It seems to me that the section "Military tactics, Military strategy and Military doctrine" at the end of this article has little to do with "Military technology and equipment" --Philip Baird Shearer 11:09, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
