Possible fields to start with

  • name – the name of the unit or formation. --Mia (talk) 17:14, 3 December 2014 (PST)


  • ToW_start_date – the date when the unit moved there, not when overall activity started
  • ToW_end_date – the date when the unit left there, not when overall activity ended
This should probably be more specific to avoid confusion between e.g. when the Western Front became a theatre of war and when a particular unit moved there.
Also, how 'engaged' is engaged, or are the source records pretty clear on this? --Mia (talk) 17:14, 3 December 2014 (PST)
  • location – ideally, a link to a geonames address? Failing that... ? --Mia (talk) 17:14, 3 December 2014 (PST)
