[[:104th Regiment of Foot]] → {{no redirect|104th Regiment of Foot (Bengal Fusiliers)}} – In 1862 nine regiments of the East India Company were transferred to the British Army and renumbered as regiments of foot from 101st to 109th. The names were always "number" Regiment of Foot ("unit name"). The other eight regiments are correctly named on wikipedia: [[101st Regiment of Foot (Royal Bengal Fusiliers)]], [[102nd Regiment of Foot (Royal Madras Fusiliers)]], [[103rd Regiment of Foot (Royal Bombay Fusiliers)]], [[105th Regiment of Foot (Madras Light Infantry)]], [[106th Regiment of Foot (Bombay Light Infantry)]], [[107th Regiment of Foot (Bengal Light Infantry)]], [[108th Regiment of Foot (Madras Infantry)]], [[109th Regiment of Foot (Bombay Infantry)]]. This regiment however is not correctly named as there was never a 104th Regiment of Foot - it was always the 104th Regiment of Foot (Bengal Fusiliers). Therefore I would like to request to move the article to the correct name; also to bring the article in line with its eight sister regiments. The source for the correct name is the [https://www.nam.ac.uk/explore/104th-regiment-foot-bengal-fusiliers British National Army Museum].
