[edit] Setting up...

I have a worksheet at User:CQ/ACW-1 from which I compiled the following list: Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia. Those 23 are the ones that have [state] in the Civil War articles. Louisiana would make an even 24. I suugest we make 24 synopsis articles titled:

  1. Portal:American Civil War/Alabama
  2. Portal:American Civil War/Arizona
  3. Portal:American Civil War/California
  4. Portal:American Civil War/Colorado
  5. Portal:American Civil War/Florida
  6. Portal:American Civil War/Georgia
  7. Portal:American Civil War/Illinois
  8. Portal:American Civil War/Iowa
  9. Portal:American Civil War/Kansas
  10. Portal:American Civil War/Kentucky
  11. Portal:American Civil War/Louisiana
  12. Portal:American Civil War/Maryland
  13. Portal:American Civil War/Massachusetts
  14. Portal:American Civil War/Mississippi
  15. Portal:American Civil War/Missouri
  16. Portal:American Civil War/New Mexico
  17. Portal:American Civil War/North Carolina
  18. Portal:American Civil War/Ohio
  19. Portal:American Civil War/Pennsylvania
  20. Portal:American Civil War/South Carolina
  21. Portal:American Civil War/Tennessee
  22. Portal:American Civil War/Texas
  23. Portal:American Civil War/Vermont
  24. Portal:American Civil War/Virginia

Did I leave anyone out? (Idaho and West Virginia present interesting cavaats in the ACW context). That makes 26. Now we can stick in those and two special articles:

  1. Portal:American Civil War/Washington DC
  2. Portal:American Civil War/Border states

Those will go at the top and bottom of the parade.

Good idea! I created a few of those articles, and appreciate your interest in getting them some visibility. Scott Mingus 20:59, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
