Talk:List of George Cross recipients

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Sort criteria

I believe that the date sort be done by year as opposed to month. Is there an easy way to convert the date record to allow a sort by year? --HJKeats 23:34, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

I've been working on it in userspace, and its partly completed along with a bit of a list revamp. Will finish this weekend. RHB ^{Talk - Edits} 20:49, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Isn’t Wikipedia wonderful, collaboration at its finest! Just mention a thought and someone is already working on the solution. Excellent work. --HJKeats 00:05, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Is this list comprehensive? We found a George Cross among my Grandfather's belongings when he died, but we don't know what it was given for, he never mentioned it. He's not on this list. Lusule (talk) 21:52, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

It covers only those who were awarded the GC directly, 3 awards were superseded by the GC and holders were required to swap their original medal for the GC. This http://www.gc-database.co.uk/alpha.htm should be a fully comprehensive list. David Underdown (talk) 18:55, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
