Hitler Youth helmet decals

The helmet decals shown in Ranks and uniforms are fantasy, and the only source provided for their design is a Google search (where there is no photographic evidence of that decal design to be seen). ThomasTheWest (talk) 06:56, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Colours - formatting

I should've probably asked beforehand, but have gone ahead and fixed the formatting of the colours section; a bunch of new stuff was added below the NSDAP Educational entry (white) a few years back which looks a bit wonky. Do these units also use white, or are their colours currently unknown? Happy to amend as necessary, just figured it could be less confusing than it was... --Vometia (talk) 17:10, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 13 October 2024

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

The paragraph beginning with "On 15 August 1939, a fortnight before" has a ^{[page needed]} marker just after the citation. Please remove the page-needed.

If I go to Google Books and view the book in the reference, https://books.google.com.au/books?id=fZWSEAAAQBAJ&pg=PA1875#v=onepage&q&f=false, I see no page numbers in this book. (If you can access it, go to the table of contents, click any chapter, and scroll around to see nearby pages. The PA1875 in the URL doesn't change when you go from page to page, so that can't be used.) Therefore, it doesn't make sense to ask for the page number, because the chapter number (already given) is the most precise citation possible. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 23:26, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The "page needed" hats are used under the auspices that anyone who possesses a physical copy of this book, could/should add the page number. It is necessary for a proper citation. Just using "Chapter 11" is not really an accurate citation. It will suffice for now, but can be improved. The hat makes perfect sense and should remain until somebody adds the page number. --Obenritter (talk) 12:27, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. TheWikiToby (talk) 19:52, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
