Thanks, for adding to my answers to those psyop questions. I tried to keep my answers real simple, some of them weren't that easily explain. I have always wondered what the old mos indentifier was. How long were you in psyop? I am in a reserve unit currently.--70.182.219.158 18:10, 22 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

I've been PSYOP since '89 and spent 9 years on active duty, so I was around a lot of changes. I'm also in a reserve unit as well. Virgil61 19:44, 22 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the help on the Septimius Severus page

edit

Just wanted to thank you for clarifying the facts about Septimius and his heritage on the talk page. That page desperately needed someone who knew what they were talking about to add a few points in. Canutethegreat (talk) 05:10, 5 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Gen. Raymond T. Odierno

edit

Thank you all for your valued participation and suggestions on the Gen. Raymond T. Odierno biography. The edit "protection" of the aticle will be lifted soon. Consensus suggest that additional info should be included for his early life and career. Career history should go after the "Early life and education" section. It is recognized that the general's involvement in the planning and undertaking of the surge is notable and should be included in the article, however it should be limited in scope to what was verifiably done by the general and should not weigh too heavily on that particular subject in order to to have a more balanced biography. Final comments welcomed. Tony the Marine (talk) 22:46, 1 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Suggested move: Battle of Cassinga to Cassinga massacre

edit

Hi. Since you've been active on the discussion page for the Battle of Cuito Cuanavale recently, I thought you might be interested in the discussion around the requested move of Battle of Cassinga to a new title of Cassinga massacre. The discussion has only attracted three editors so far (including myself), and I think it would be beneficial to have the input there of some of the more regular contributors to Border War articles. — Impi (talk) 10:30, 25 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

WP:Hornbook -- a new WP:Law task force for the J.D. curriculum

edit

Hi Virgil61,

I'm asking Wikipedians who are interested in United States legal articles to take a look at WP:Hornbook, the new "JD curriculum task force".

Our mission is to assimilate into Wikipedia all the insights of an American law school education, by reducing hornbooks to footnotes.

  • Over the course of a semester, each subpage will shift its focus to track the unfolding curriculum(s) for classes using that casebook around the country.
  • It will also feature an extensive, hyperlinked "index" or "outline" to that casebook, pointing to pages, headers, or {{anchors}} in Wikipedia (example).
  • Individual law schools can freely adapt our casebook outlines to the idiosyncratic curriculum devised by each individual professor.
  • I'm encouraging law students around the country to create local chapters of the club I'm starting at my own law school, "Student WP:Hornbook Editors". Using WP:Hornbook as our headquarters, we're hoping to create a study group so inclusive that nobody will dare not join.

What you can do now:

1. Add WP:Hornbook to your watchlist, {{User Hornbook}} to your userpage, and ~~~~ to Wikipedia:Hornbook/participants.
2. If you're a law student,
(You don't have to start the club, or even be involved in it; just help direct me to someone who might.)
3. Introduce yourself to me. Law editors on Wikipedia are a scarce commodity. Do knock on my talk page if there's an article you'd like help on.

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
