About this and (apparently) many others, these were not established in Germany and do not qualify for that and similar annual categories. You might want to discuss @ the appropriate WikiProject pages before doing any more wholesale categorization. I don't look forward to undoing all your HotCat additions and it's not a good use of anyone's time. Best! PЄTЄRS J V ►TALK 15:48, 28 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

The SS formations in question were established by the SS which - as you might know - was located in Germany. Please raise the issue with the approbriate noticeboard if you disagree. --Denis19 (talk) 16:34, 28 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

The order was issued, however the units themselves were established in their respective occupied territories. The category is established "in" Germany not "by German authorities". 16:50, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

If that is how you see it, please try and find a consensus rather than simply revert my edits. --Denis19 (talk) 17:07, 28 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

If you wish to add content, the onus is on you to make the case. We already have appropriate categories for the establishment of military units. Personally, your use of the category appears to be outside the intended use as exemplified by articles categorized in other years. Establishing an army, for example, would apply, not army units. The categories is NOT intended for indicating the establishment of subsidiaries, so you entire use entering all SS units is ill-advised and inappropriate.

Currently it is you who argues against sources. So it is for you to find a consensus to delete sourced information, if you believe that these categories should not be used in this case. --Denis19 (talk) 17:19, 28 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
