There are '''three ways you can help''' share the experiences of soldiers in these units.
* '''Help fill in the battalions for each regiment'''. A good source is the Long, Long Trail's page for [http://www.1914-1918.net/regiments.htm the British infantry of 1914-1918]
* '''Add links for personal and official diaries, letters, memoirs and histories to regiment or battalion pages'''
* '''Add detail for battalions''' through 'infoboxes' that describe how different military units were related to each other (this one is a bit more technical, contact [http://miaridge.com/contact/ Mia] for more information.

I'm working on a definitive list of British battalions and regiments from 1914-1918, starting with the infantry, but here's a list of [http://web.archive.org/web/20050404041821/http://regiments.org/regiments/uk/lists/ba1918.htm REGIMENTS and CORPS of the BRITISH ARMY in 1918] (via the Internet Archive as the site appears to have been down for some years). The Long, Long Trail site has several pages on [http://www.1914-1918.net/britdivs.htm The British Divisions of 1914-1918] and Chris Baker, the site's owner, has given permission to use information from the site, so populating this page from those is a high priority task. Please feel free to get stuck in if you spot a gap!

'''If you've got a diary you want to add now, please just click 'Edit' above, and add the name of the author's regiment.''' Add 'British infantry' or another appropriate label to help differentiate between units across different armies, then make it into a wiki link by putting two square brackets around the name of the regiment or battalion, like this:

<nowiki>[[Royal Warwickshire Regiment, British infantry]]</nowiki>

This makes it into a red link [[Royal Warwickshire Regiment, British infantry]]; you can click on any red-linked page name to create that page.
