This contains potential copyright violations, it is not adequately sourced, it provides more ambiguity than guidance, lack of provenance Keith H99 (talk) 12:33, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I had some challenges with the nomination, so I may have inadvertently nominated it more than once. That I can tell, it's an article that not been nominated prior to today, and has been generally ignored. The Article is a long list that cannot possibly be attributed to reliable sources, for each and every item. This duplicates content from other sites, or hosts POV on interpretation, and is best consigned to the trash can, as I perceive it. Keith H99 (talk) 12:47, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The incorrect information in the article prompted me to take a look at the Silver War Badge article. This needed reworking, which has been done. That article could be corrected, I fail to see that as plausible for this article, hence nomination for deletion. Keith H99 (talk) 16:41, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There is a single usable reference in this article, to the National Archives [1], and that content sensibly is not quoted or summarized (because it can't be). This reference could be included with a single sentence at
WP:NOTCATALOG if it were sourced by just replicating a complete list of unannotated items found in the original. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 06:26, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply

Delete - Clear violation of
WP:NOT. Whether this is a directory or extract from the table of a textbook, it is not an encyclopaedic article. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:41, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply
