Lt-Col Joslen book that provides the order of battle for every British division during the war fails to note an Indian motor brigade being temp attached to the division; are we completly sure it is suppose to be here in the article?-- EnigmaMcmxc ( talk) 16:27, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
Can the division really be said to have surrendered? The best data I could find for Sonnenblume was 1,760 prisoners taken at Mechili from the 3rd Indian and other units. Even in its attenuated state after the detachments to Greece, this seems a low number. Keith-264 ( talk) 11:28, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

As a general comment, while I'm happy to pass the article as it is, the blow-by-blow account of the fighting in Cyrenaica would probably be better in its own article. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 00:11, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
Apart from the best bits being in another continent at the time, "destruction" of the remainder has been challenged [1]. Apparently the division was to be reconstituted but events led to the 3rd Armoured Brigade being assigned elsewhere and in the end its units were sent to other divisions. Perhaps this could better be conveyed in the lead? Regards Keith-264 ( talk) 14:11, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
