I uploaded the Agra rail map (no worries about copyright) and popped it on the Agra page. You suggested you would attend to the stations. Can I ask a favour? I created content for "How to interpret this infobox" which can be found by clicking [[How to interpret this infobox|here]]. I need someone to critically cast their eye over what I have written and come back to me with straightforward observations like "I would have wanted to know about X but it only told me Y." (I can then add Z.) Would you mind? [[User:HughWilding|HughWilding]] 13:32, 15 May 2009 (PDT)

I am afraid this exercise is involving you in a lot of work which has been caused by my dating the campaigns. Thanks for getting it back on track. And thanks for doing the NWF Chronological List – a great asset. A few comments on the latest batch:
 
Battles no longer appear on the Browse Content section of the Main Page but are under Wars and Campaigns. Shouldn’t they be a separate category under Military?
 
If you put “Battles” into the Search Box the first item is ‘List of Battles & Actions in British India 1600-1900’. Peter agreed some time ago that this list is redundant now that the majority of Battles have edited pages. I put it in the For Deletion category temporarily with a suggestion that it should not be deleted but put in archive somewhere. Generally speaking we don’t want users accessing this list let alone wasting time editing it.
 
Baizai Expedition: You have added ‘The Baizai Expedition of 1849 saw the Battle of Baizai Territory’. The original Battle entry was ‘Battle of Baizai Territory’ but like many others it wasn’t a battle but a NWF campaign. I converted it to Baizai Expedition. If you put ‘Baizai Territory’ into Search you get the Location page with a circular reference back to the expedition! As you know there is a page titled ‘Battle of Baizai Territory’ but it is one of those phantom pages without a category which takes you round the circle again. Surely it can be deleted.
 
Bozdari Expedition: Same issues as Baizai Expedition.
 
Battle of Umbeyla: Another of those phantom pages. I have added a link to the Location page “Umbeyla”.
 
I hope these are not too nitpicking.--[[User:Symorsebrown|Sy]] 08:51, 20 May 2009 (PDT)
