I'de like to see other SJA organizations add in their rank schemes; this should be a single page with all countries on it. Joezasada 21:57, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
I have altered the wording slightly so it is less aggressive.
I wonder if anyone could correct the broken images that currently show. It looks like the & in the pictures is what is causing problems, if there is a way to change those & to the word AND it may correct the issue. However, I am not sure on how to correct that. Medic3348 17:44, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
After playing around with the images a bit, I was able to isolate the issue (The Ampersand symbol "&") and re-uploaded images to files that work. Testing confirmed that it works Medic3348 18:03, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
I have added the Country Structure for England and the Islands, however as a new user I am unable to upload the files to show the ranksliders. I agree, this should be one page for all countries. Once I am able to, I will uload the imaes. Mackied 11:45, 26 May 2008 (BST)
The England structure is looking a bit worse for wear. I've corrected the grades as follows:
- One pip = Grade 6 - Two pips = Grade 5 - Three pips = Grade 4 - One Crown = Grade 3 - One Crown, One pip = Grade 2 - One Crown, Two pips = Grade 1
However im unable to upload images as im a new user, and the grades 2 and 5 images are totally missing. Can someone correct this, as i dont know how! Jrooney ( talk) 13:17, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
The line-up with the army ranks vs. English ranks isn't quite right. Deputy or Assistant Commissioner should be the same as Grade 1 = Colonel. Grade 2 = Lt Col. Grade 3 = Major. Grade 4 = Captain. Grade 5 = Lt. Grade 6 = 2nd Lt. You could go a lot higher and start looking above Commissioner grade; national officers such as Chief Officers and the like have equivalent grades. However, the comparisons drawn are arbitrary - how many Brigadiers does the army have compared to how many Commissioners SJA have?! Jungle expat ( talk) 13:23, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
In the process of updating to reflect the new "simplified" rank structure; template changes to come later -- SunsetTapestryBaboon ( talk) 14:45, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
