 I am the user that change these. If you were to say the name of a battle would'nt you use 'The' I would? from--[[User:Skittles the hog|Skittles the hog]] 14:26, 4 January 2008 (UTC) Happy new year by the way!
+:Yes, you would, but there's no reason not to put "The" before the link to the battle. For example, "such as in the [[Battle of Canary Wharf]]". That is the standard on most other wikis, for example on Wikipedia there is the [[wikipedia:Battle of Britain|Battle of Britain]], on Wookieepedia there is the [[w:c:starwars:Battle of Yavin|Battle of Yavin]], on Memory Alpha there is the [[memoryalpha:Battle of Sector 001|Battle of Sector 001]], to list a few. If you want to know why they don't have "The" at the start of those page titles, ask on those websites. {{:User:Ghelæ/sig}} 15:47, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
+::You can also have a look at one of Wikipedia's list of wars [[Wikipedia:List of military conflicts spanning multiple wars|List of military conflicts spanning multiple wars]] which also don't have 'The' in front of them. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 15:57, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
