Rather than make this page just a list of links, I'd like to expand it to be a brief overview of all Indian Army divisions and independent brigades of WW1, with links to longer articles where appropriate.Yorkist (talk) 10:53, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest that the scope of article be expanded to include everything about Indian Army during World War 1 rather than just a list. Currently no such article exists. Vinay84 (talk) 11:53, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think what you are looking for is here Indian Army (1895–1947)#First World War You can of course make a new article Indian Army during World War I.--Jim Sweeney (talk) 12:29, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As I see it , the new article Indian Army during World War I would be draw heavily from what is already there is this article and Indian Army (1895–1947)#First World War and hence I believe it is a good idea to expand the scope of the current one which is an established article already

Be bold instead of the list format there is enough detail here to change it into prose if you want I will help and we could move the article name to Indian Army during World War I. --Jim Sweeney (talk) 10:18, 4 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sumner says that the meerut division joined Force D and not E

--Vinay84 (talk) 12:27, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The 3rd and 7th divisions were transferred to Force E in 1918, together with about 36 Indian battalions attached to what were called British Divisions but they only had one British battalion per brigade so they had the same formation as a Indian division 1 British 3 Indian battalions per brigade. --Jim Sweeney (talk) 12:47, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Force E created in 1918 looks to be out of sequence with the previous and next Forces which were created in 1914. The 4th and 5th Cavalry Divisions were formed in Palestine from British Yeomanry already in the EEF and British Indian Army units transferred from France. --Rskp (talk) 06:42, 14 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
