Info and actions required about War Crosses of Greece

[edit]

Discussion moved here from the talk pages of the users mentioned below:

Concerning the:

From which year are they (1917, 1940 or 1974)? I am asking so that we can assign them in the correct category.

Do you consider them duplicates of any of those in the categories:

Please take any action as you may see fit, or let me know so that I will.

For you info, I am creating wikidata items for each of those military decorations (which can then be assigned to the persons who we know that have been decorated). --FocalPoint (talk) 08:32, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

To help the discussion: They seem to be either 1940 or 1974 medals, however:

  • the 1940 crosses have the crown
  • the 1974 have an ethnosimo / εθνόσημο

So, as these crosses have nothing on, they are .... what? something I do not know? or just inaccurate / partial design? --FocalPoint (talk) 09:05, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi FocalPoint! AFAIK these crosses are the final design of the 1974 version of the cross, finalized in 2003. The other design, with the national emblem in place of the crown, was a "transitional" adopted in 1974, but they stayed on on the principle of ουδέν μονιμότερον του προσωρινού and the Greek state's general indifference towards medals, symbols, etc. I will categorize them accordingly.

It is the modern version valid from 2003. They need a new category. Diafora (talk) 10:49, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As per the suggestion of both User:Cplakidas and User:Diafora, I moved them in Category:War Cross 1974 in 2013 version (Greece) (and also asked for modification of their respoective names, to indicate which version they are). --FocalPoint (talk) 22:51, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
