[edit] The Parachute Regiment
Welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed that you moved The Parachute Regiment to The Parachute Regiment (British Army) and created a disambiguation page. You may not be aware of guidelines at WP:MILHIST that suggest a different paranthetical disambiguator. As you can see here, the guideline suggest using only the name of the country of service (in this case, United Kingdom) rather than the particular branch of the armed forces. The particular branch in generally only used if there are multiple similarly named units within the armed forces of a single country. Rather than procede without explaining myself, I propose moving the article to The Parachute Regiment (United Kingdom). Also, the article for the unit of the Indian army should probably exist at The Parachute Regiment (India), rather than at The Parachute Regiment (Indian Army). As you can see, the country disambiguator is currently a redirect, rather than the actual location of the article. I also raised this question on the MILHIST talk page, you can leave a comment there if you'd like, or you can reply on my talk page. Carom 01:11, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:CommandoPatch.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
