Well, it's at stub status now at least. I rendered some of the Polish names into their more traditional Anglo-American English equivalents. The translations and pictures on the Polish Army website were my only guide, since I know almost zero Polish! --Jpbrenna 23:59, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
I think it should be moved to Polish Land Forces. It would be more correct in English, I think. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 18:09, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
the article states: 118,000+ 50,000 makes 168,000 So, which on of these three numbers is wrong in the article??? noclador 11:56, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
Image:PZA Loara.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 00:22, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
Who is changing the designation of KTO Rosomak - to XC-360P??? This is not a designation of Polish Army, and I asume that we are using Polsish Army designation (for exemple BWP-1 instead of BMP-1). The numbers are also wrong, planes have changed since 2002 r. --156.17.233.11 (talk) 21:16, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
First of all - Special Operacions Forces - not Special Forces, second - SOF are not part of the Land Forces so weapons used by SOF shouldnt be listed in this article.
I created and added today a graphic of the structure of the Polish Land Forces, but there are some Brigades about which I could not find any information! If someone has information about the missing units, please tell me and I will update the graphic immediately. thanks, --noclador 16:51, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
Your graphic should look something like this: http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/2662/polandlandforcesri8.png --Corran.pl (talk) 11:36, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
My take on the situation is that people are getting CARRIED AWAY with pictures, the page clearly lacks any meaningful narrative, yet it is full of pictures, many which are duplicates. I believe that we should revert back and exercise some moderation in this situation, lets not make the page sloppy and cluttered. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.149.136.97 (talk) 01:39, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
It's not sloppy and cluttered though. It's convenient if anything. 71.229.241.228 (talk) 02:22, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
In my opinion there are to many pics, looking at other military pages this one looks incomplete with no text, all these silly tables, and bad pictures which clearly belong on the "Equipment of the Polish Army" page. Last time someone tried to add army rank images even though there is a whole page devoted to "Polish Armed Forces rank insignia". Everyone should exercise common sense and not add junk on the page... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.149.136.201 (talk) 01:49, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
Again, someone just comes in and adds a tone of pictures and new charts without considering that the page is getting cluttered. Please take this into consideration, Wiki is not a photo album we still need a lengthy narrative on that page not more pics... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.57.91.34 (talk) 02:51, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
Hey SuperTank17, let me clue you in on a few things... there are people including myself who were maintaining this page for months before you came in (a couple of weeks ago)... now you think you own this page. 1. you entered so many excessive pictures I had to edit a few, so you got mad a got rid of them all... 2. your tables created a mess and another user had to fix them...
If you don't learn to use commonsense and moderation I will take this argument to the page administrator you can't just come in and run this page like you are the only person in charge of editing, this site is used by so many people and you have to use constructive editing to make this page clear, and easy to use... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.57.91.34 (talk) 23:24, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
SuperTank17... please note other Polish military pages, that are maintained by myself and few others for some time now... like the "Polish Navy" or "Armed Forces"... there is a balance between the articles and pics... this makes the page simple yet informative... this is the Wiki standard... also, note other foreign military pages that follow this format... this is what we are going for... people made changes to these pages, but no one went crazy and just started adding "stuff" just because they could, you are welcome to add info, just consider the overall format...

If you have a good idea that will work, than use it. But, keep this in mind... we are trying to have an organized page... what we don't want is something like the "PL Air Force" that's primarly run by some other people. That page has so much "stuff" and it's so disorganized that it's not even displaying correctly when viewed. If you a couple of "good" pics that will help to ilustrate the overall text than add them, but don't just add a ton of pic just because you found them in Wiki Commons... the "gallery" concept is good if maintained properly... an EXECELLENT example of this is the "PL Border Guard" page... [[1]]
As for the deletion of sourced information... that was an error... what was initially noticed was the number of excessive pics and the page was "undone".
As for the "..." it a an informal way of writing, this way you're not too concerned about sentence structure... you just get the point across. But, what does this have to do with editing a Wiki page... it's very childish to include this in a discussion about Wiki content, but then the "17" in SuperTank17 probably stands for your age 17 year old. LOL! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.57.91.34 (talk) 13:51, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
Why in the name of all that's holy and sacred would anyone put "Żuk" and "Nysa" under military vehicles? Well might as well put all the limos that minister and generals use going with that... seriously. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Barciur (talk • contribs) 21:03, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
Military vehicles include all land combat and transportation vehicles[...]
Ok in that situation I suggest we make a distinction between combat vehicles and other vehicles because in my opinion tanks and żuks shouldn't be in the same category Barciur (talk) 19:15, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
Hi, guys, just would like to say that this "vans" are out of place here, therefore back all previous opinions up! Thank you Ulan76 (talk) 21:32, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
Those equipment lists should be removed to a sub page. The polish army army article should include information on deployments, history, training, oath of allegiance and things that really matter to the polish army. The polish army has a long history, from ww1 - ww2, operations in afghan, and 100s of years in the medieval age. I am going to put the equipment infmation on a sub page.

Well done mate Ulan76 (talk) 21:33, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
Is this page a suitable place to cover the history of the Polish forces that escaped to France and then to Britain in 1939-40 and played an important role in defending Britain from 1940 until their deployment in Normandy? I'm writing a book about the defence of Scotland in 1940-41, and Poles were responsible for defending Fife and Angus. Happy to start a new page if not appropriate. If there is a more suitable page please advise. Thanks. Gjbarclay (talk) 12:27, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
No one is censoring your work, so please stop accusing me, or anyone else of doing that. The issue here is that you keep adding a picture that has little connection to the text (it is a static photograph that lacks a historical setting in the background). You can add hundreds of pictures of soldiers, but they are not pictures of historical events, and since images on a wiki page are to be kept to a minimum, they have to be more than a portrait photo. Yet you keep adding this file to every page you edit. --76.118.227.161 (talk) 12:59, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

This page states that Michał Jach is Polish Minister of Defence. It's clearly not true - Antoni Macierewicz is. Michał Jach is head of Sejm (Parliament's) Defence Comission (I don't know if that's correct translation). I don't have any Wikipedia editing experience, so somebody please correct it. -Mateusz Duchalski — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.25.130.28 (talk) 19:16, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

Please remove map with locations of Polish Armed Forces bases. There is a map below the article. It may be used by the potential enemy. That kind of information should never be in public web site like wikipedia.org Jacek Zaycev (talk) 15:37, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
@Buckshot06:, does this page still need protection? I don't see any recent persistent incidents. Regards, LukeA1 (talk) 21:11, 21 May 2019 (UTC)

Hello, current strength listed is inaccurate, as of March 2020, Strength of Land Forces is 108,000. This is my first discussion, so apologies if I have messed something up here. If someone who has edit permissions could adjust this number listed in infobox, it would be appreciated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shoemelass (talk • contribs) 03:41, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
