Revision as of 21:04, 9 October 2017

This page is a bit too broad. It's covering an entire type. Can we be more specific? --Funkychinaman (talk) 14:47, 30 May 2017 (EDT)

As it is the naval mine, it doesn't match out standards. Greg-Z (talk) 15:24, 30 May 2017 (EDT)
As it is right now, absolutely not. There's be a better case if it was for a specific type of limpet mine. --Funkychinaman (talk) 15:35, 30 May 2017 (EDT)
I could not really find that much info about this device. Any help anybody? Thinking about it I got some British mine manuals I think, can you give me a few more days so I can try to figure out a bit more info? BTW it is an infantry placed naval mine. Placed by a single diver so my way of thinking was that in general it is no different than an anti tank mine but simply against water vehicles. Don't you think this would generally qualify if I found out the specific type?--Hchris (talk) 17:23, 30 May 2017 (EDT)
I get that, but we wouldn't allow a page for just "Land Mine". --Funkychinaman (talk) 18:29, 30 May 2017 (EDT)
Some info about various models of Limpet Mines can be found here and here. Greg-Z (talk) 12:12, 31 May 2017 (EDT)
yep I understand. Thanks for the links, will update the page asap! :-) --Hchris (talk) 14:43, 31 May 2017 (EDT)
I would like to note that the Battlefield 1 page still lacks the in-game image of this weapon. This isn't good for the weapon page. Greg-Z (talk) 14:52, 31 May 2017 (EDT)
I will take care of this too!--Hchris (talk) 23:12, 31 May 2017 (EDT)
