- In some cases the redirect (Arnold Charles Walker) should be categorised, but not the link target - eg Arnold Charles Walker should be in "Warlpiri people" (Walker was a Warlpiri man), but "Death of Kumanjayi Walker" should not (his death is not a a Warlpiri person).

Sockpuppet investigations/0HH0LYN1GHT
Hi Melbguy05, I am glad you recognized the sock and filed an investigation. Their known socks are now blocked but as we both know will likely return. Socks waste so much of our time. S0091 (talk) 19:50, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Re: ‘burden of proof’ diff
Not going to contest it, just want to flag that it’s an arguably incorrect statement of the law, in my opinion. But thank you for your contributions; especially your wonderful contributions to enhancing Australian content on this site. I’ll leave it be Jack4576 (talk) 17:43, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
- @Jack4576: Can you please elaborate further on "incorrect statement of the law"? Melbguy05 (talk) 17:48, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
purpose of parameter |Colours=?
Hello Melbguy05, Thank You reaching out, the purpose of adding this colour parameter was simply to add force colors in infobox , that are both used in the force's uniform and flags. I hope you can help me in this regard.

- @Procrastinator: I see you added a separate infobox to Islamabad Police for Service colour and Uniform Service colour. There are infobox examples here:Infobox Embedding. Melbguy05 (talk) 22:13, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

]LSH-T vs LST
Just a heads up, you removed the mention of the Landing Ship Transport however cited it as the Landing Ship Heavy (Landing Ship Heavy-Tank), both are entirely different vessels. The LST can be seen here clearly flying the AWE [1] and the this is the LSH-T flying the ANF [2]. Nford24 (PE121 Personnel Request Form) 22:54, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Nford24: The December-January issue of Defence Technology Review magazine says Damen's LST 100 design is for Land 8710 Phase 2 landing craft heavy LCH for the Australian Army with the first to be delivered to the Army in 2028.[1] I've never heard of a Landing Ship Heavy-Tank for the ADF. Regards, Melbguy05 (talk) 06:11, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
- I feel like this will turn into a time will tell situation, but locally they're referred to as Landing Ship Heavy-Tank's (Same as the Balikpapan's) to replace the Balikpapan Class vessels, which were also built for the Australian Army under a land contract.[2] The LCH (LSH-T) is intended to be part of the RAN as noted in 2014,[3] with Land 8710 form part of Joint Plan 2048, with the amphibious LCH's being Phase 5.[4] I should also note, that the army LCM-1E's were, procured under JP 2048 Phase 3[5] were ultimately crewed by and transferred to the RAN.[6] Havig been to sea on HMAS Wewak, I hope they're just less rough.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Nford24 (talk • contribs) 12:10, 30 March 2025 (UTC)

On the SWAT article
@Melbguy05 Recently saw you reverted my edit again on the SWAT article. I propose two solutions to the issue regarding use of the term in other countries:
- Go back to this revision where use of the term in other countries is it's own section
- Rename the article to "SWAT in the United States" or "SWAT (United States)" and make a separate article called SWAT (China) or SWAT in China
I don't think simply having the article being called SWAT means it is solely in regard to the United States, rather if the article should solely be about use of the term in the US it should be called "SWAT in the United States"; However I would prefer option 1, since a section on SWAT teams in other nations seems the most logical.

In regards to the SWAT (China) draft
Hey,
Seems like Draft:SWAT (China) is doing pretty well, is there anything you think needs to be improved so far? I think it could be ready to be moved to mainspace; I also some questions:
- Should I add the insignias of SWAT teams which currently don't have articles(basically everything outside Beijing SWAT; Shanghai SWAT has it's chinese wikipedia article)?
- I found this book/journal(铁路公安特警执法与训练实务 [Railway SWAT law enforcement and training], 2017, from Wang Xuzhang(王旭章) and Li Yandong(李廷东), ISBN 9787565329685 or ISBN 7565329681) from the People's Public Security University of China dedicated to railway SWAT, however I have no idea how to access it, may I ask if there is any way to access books online?
