[edit] Welcome to the American Civil War portal talk page

Before posting on this page, please observe these basic guidelines so that discussion stays focused in the appropriate areas. Since each portal sub page has its own talk page and since these may not be immediately obvious to the user, I've created a talk map below in order to point all talk to correct locations.

This talk page is devoted to discussing portal box arrangement, what boxes should or should not appear, and what page formatting should apply. Please keep discussion on this page to that subject matter, or your talk may be moved to the correct page by portal maintainers.

If your post pertains to any of the content of any of the boxes, take that discussion to the portal talk listed below.

If your talk isn't related to any of the above, feel free to post boldly here. Welcome to this talk page and this portal. Let's try to fight out our controversies here (on these talk pages) so they don't have to read them over there (on the portal pages). BusterD 12:17, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Improvement and maintenance

I think we should go ahead and fill in the red links above and maybe start a Portal:American Civil War/Queue page for dynamic content. Can we recruit more participants maybe? • CQ 13:53, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

I'm done fiddling. Now it's time to create archives and build the queue. if you go to my portal subpage you can see some of the content I've prequalified. Once we announce to the task force this is constructed, we can probably draw more attention. BusterD 23:29, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Joining

Hello guys. I'm Sean and I'd like to join the American Civil War Task Force, if I may. I have been studying the war for most of my life, and I am a Civil War re-enactor from the state of Georgia (1st.Battalion Invalid Corps, Company D). If there is anything I can do to help please feel free to ask.--Lord Balin 10:48, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Welcome and you're certainly welcome to help here on the portal pages. I'm about to turn automation on here at the portal, so that means that work added should be put into the portal queue. See the map for better understanding. Right now what needs to be done is to write some new "Did you know" copy, and place it in appropriate queue boxes. If you're interested, reply here and I'll walk you through that process in the next day or two. Another task which keeps escaping me is writing new News links. Other than that, I have a fair idea of what will go where and why. Thanks a ton for offering assistance, I will definitely ask for some. BusterD 13:35, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
