[edit] Battle Box

How do you add the battles of the Mesopotamian Campaign to the battlebox?

[edit] New Campaignbox

How it works is that by referencing "campaign=Mesopotamian" it will automatically bring in the Mesopotamian Campaign in at the bottom. The campaignbox is at Template:Campaignbox_Mesopotamian and there's more info at Wikipedia:WikiProject Battles. It's a bit fiddly and it wasn't helped by me constantly misspelling Mesopotamia.

Fall of Baghdad currently redirects to the 2003 events so we should add a disambiguation page when we get to it.

This is great stuff so far, everyone! Let's complete the Mesopotamian Campaign! Ben-w 17:14, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Campaignbox

I just fixed up the Campaignbox. The Battle of Ctesiphon and Siege of Kut were after the first five battles of the Kut relief operations and before the last one. Ctesiphon forced a retreat to Kut where the Division was then besieged. So I fixed the battle order.

Also, I made it so that Fall of Baghdad doesn't go to the 2003 battle. But you should still make a disambiguation page just in case somebody types in Fall of Baghdad in the General Search Box.

I also added in the rear guard action fought during the retreat to Kut.

Could someone please put a picture in the battlebox.

It's beginning to take shape.
