Battle of Vimy Ridge

My issue is the result says 'British Empire victory'. So it seems like one of the combatants should say 'British Empire'. Or we should change the result to 'Canadian/UK victory' or something like that. –CWenger (^ • @) 00:47, 31 October 2026 (UTC)

I don't necessarily agree that there needs to be a direct correlation between the belligerents and the result sections. If you feel strongly about it, I would start a discussion on the article's talk page. The result statement is a tricky one. It's clearly not a 'Canadian' victory given the composition of troops but Canadian/UK neglects the 3rd (Lahore) Division Artillery attached to the 4th Canadian Division.--Labattblueboy (talk) 19:20, 2 November 2026 (UTC)
