4th Mounted Brigade (United Kingdom) → 3rd Mounted Brigade – (United Kingdom) dab is unnecessary as no other nth Mounted Brigade exist. – Hamish59 (talk) 19:28, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Philg88 ^♦talk 04:50, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Object to RMTR speedy move How is this justification? You just changed "4th" to "3rd" without any justification. -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 04:22, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
Oppose - firstly, there is no rationale for the changed ordinal, and if there was, what about the Canadian 3rd Mounted Brigade], secondly, what about the Canadian 4th Mounted Brigade]? Please see WP:MILMOS#UNITNAME. Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 07:10, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Peacemaker67 , and probably check contribs for other moves. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:32, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment obviously this was a foul up on my part. I meant, of course, 4th Mounted Brigade (United Kingdom) → 4th Mounted Brigade. However, I note the comments from Peacemaker67 and would like to withdraw the request. I see what you have done with 2nd Mounted Brigade - I will do similar with 1st, 3rd, and 4th. Perhaps it will encourage editors to add the appropriate 2nd Mounted Brigade (Canada) etc. in due course. Were there a 5th, 6th, etc. Canadian Mounted Brigades?

@Hamish59: please take care when you change the banners to dab status, since the talk pages may contain redirects, and if you don't check the page name you've landed on, you may change the banner status for the wrong talkpage. -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 15:02, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Good catch. Thank you. Hamish59 (talk) 15:09, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
