As far as I can tell the links to the Rothwell (order of battle for North Africa) page do not provide citations for the information in the article. I could not find this information when I clicked on them. I will not remove them at this time - but if others agree, I think they should be. Other sources will need to be found for this information.

I've managed to replace one of these citations with a book, but one still remains. — AustralianRupert (talk) 13:05, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that this article could be improved in the following ways:

• expanding the text to describe the unit's history in more detail (particular in the First and Second World Wars);
• adding in more citations, as there are still a few statements that require citations;
• adding some images — the regimental badge would look nice in the infobox, as would a few images/photographs to break up the text.

Is there anyone that is able to help with this? I have added what I can, but to be honest do not have the sources to expand the text further. — AustralianRupert (talk) 03:15, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can anyone help with adding more info to the infobox? For example: motto, marches, mascot, colonel of the regiment, etc. I'd say that Queen Elizabeth might have been the colonel of the regiment, but don't have anything to back this up. Does anyone know for sure? — AustralianRupert (talk) 05:26, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
