 ==Command of the Oceans== 

 Is the ""Command of the Oceans 1914-1917"" template appropriate for this article. It was origionally intended for the battles between the German High Seas Fleet and the Royal Navy forces sent to stop them. Since then it has expanded to include all naval actions fought in the Indian and Pacific oceans during World War I. The probelm is that Lake Tanganyika is not part of the said oceans and is basically land locked with the exception of the connecting river ways. It should only be included as being part of the East African Campaign, which it is, and not the campaign fought across the vast Pacific and Indian oceans.  "
