Talk:Operation Thayer

Nonstandard/OR Research Section

This campaign box results section is non-standard and contradicted by the content of the article. The article clearly described the battle as being largely inconclusive, and non-standard terms like "Allied Operational Success" is not part of the template parameters.

As per the template notes found here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_military_conflict

• result – optional – this parameter may use one of two standard terms: "X victory" or "Inconclusive". The term used is for the "immediate" outcome of the "subject" conflict and should reflect what the sources say. In cases where the standard terms do not accurately describe the outcome, a link or note should be made to the section of the article where the result is discussed in detail (such as "See the Aftermath section"). Such a note can also be used in conjunction with the standard terms but should not be used to conceal an ambiguity in the "immediate" result. Do not introduce non-standard terms like "decisive", "marginal" or "tactical", or contradictory statements like "decisive tactical victory but strategic defeat". Omit this parameter altogether rather than engage in speculation about which side won or by how much.
