Wikidata country of origin

edit
  • [[BMP-2]] ({{wikidata|properties|page=BMP-2|P495}})
  • BMP-2 (Soviet Union)

Make a template like Template:Annotated link, for country of origin?

Done {{lwc}} {{Link with country}}


To do

edit
Provide error messages, warnings
Should be blank result for bare template, not "[[{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]"
Make the lwc template use shorter names? Embedding the "Country name" template seems ok for one country, but multiple?
Breaks on multiple, and non-standard names like "Nazi Germany".
  • United States
  • China
  • ...
  • Write module to cope with multiple country results, pipe all to module and call module behind country name for each?
  • Null result for non standard names - keep original
countries = { "China", "Russia", "Iran", "Democratic People's Republic of Korea"}

for i = 1, #countries do
  print(countries[i])
  end


  • Problem, need to strip spaces
List = ("One, two, three")

print(List)

Words = {}
for w in (List .. ","):gmatch("([^,]*),") do 
    table.insert(Words, w) 
end


for i = 1, #Words do
  print(Words[i])
end

local function split_with_comma(str)
  local fields = {}
  for field in str:gmatch('([^,]+)') do
    fields[#fields+1] = field
  end
  return fields
end

function ltrim(s)
  return s:match'^%s*(.*)'
end

array = split_with_comma(List)
for i = 1, #array do
  print(ltrim(array[i]))
end

commastring = ""
for i = 1, #array-1 do
  commastring = commastring .. ltrim(array[i]) .. ", "
end

Heavy Panzer Battalion

edit

Foundation

edit
  • When, by who
    • 24 Nov 1938, Brauchitsch. Memo, not implemented, repealed (Wilbeck 18)
    • None through invasion of Poland, France, early Russia. (Wilbeck 18)
    • T34-76 accelerated development, Army Gen staff founded first 2 heavy companies, Feb 1942, battalions 501, 502, 503 in May. (Wilbeck 19, referring to other sec sources)
  • Foundation dates for each battalion.

Role

edit
  • Truppenführung, Gen. Ludwig Beck
    • Main Operational manual, doesn't specifically address need for heavies.
  • Militar-Wochenblatt and other journals
    • Guderian and others suggest uses.
  • Achtung-Panzer, Heinz Guderian
    • Entire chapter.
  • Tactics of heavy tank battalions May 1943
  • Breakthrough - although some lack of clarity

Organisation

edit
  • D, E, others, reasons for change (Wilbeck 19-25)
  • Relevant to role?
  • Change from Tiger I to II

Training

edit

Combat history

edit
  • Theater timeline, by unit.
  • Famous actions
  • Successes, failures
    • panzerregiment bäke, relief of the korsun pocket
  • Statistics

Analysis

edit
  • Strengths, flaws
    • Breakthrough - armor, gun, lethality.
    • Unreliable - underpowered, overstressed drive
    • Lack of maintenance support, spares.
    • Losses during retreat.
    • Tough - Recovered and repaired when field held
    • Expense
    • Fuel requirement
    • Weight - bridges, cellars.
