[edit] Rodger Young Bio
Hi, Hjal. Just to give you a heads-up, I removed the external bio link to Rodger Young that you placed on the Starship Troopers page. Links to other wikipedia pages are preferred, and since this page already links to Rodger Young at the first mention of Rico's transport, this didn't seem appropriate. If the bio link is appropriate, I suggest that you put it on Young's page. Cheers, and happy editing! -- Pawl 18:39, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
- First, yes, I agree that the link to Rodger Young that you added is reasonable. Second, I'm not so sure sure about linking to the USS Valley Forge is smart - someone clicking through should be expecting to go to something about this ship "Valley Forge", not its namesake. (Well, actually, according to the naming convention that Heinlein cited, iirc, ships of that class were named after locations that "mudfeet made their names shine", not previous ships.) Similarly, the link to Ypres might be confusing to someone not familiar with the story, but I'm hoping that no one thinks that a ship collided with a city while "over Klendathu" - but perhaps I need to go in & rephrase that part in the article. (Lastly, now that I think about it, I don't think that Valley Forge or Ypres were of the ship class called "corvette", but I need to go back and read the story again.) -- Pawl 00:42, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] American High
Hey Hjal,
Thanks for the information. I have made the necessary changes to the American High School article, and made sure the original links to American High School now go directly to that page. I also added a disambiguation page for American High School. I am currently working on a larger plan to edit and clean up the American High School article, as it has relatively few sources and it is somewhat length and rambling.
Look forward to working with you in the future.

[edit] FUSD and Related Articles
Hey Hjal, I am actually in the middle of finals right now, and I am planning on doing a lot of work on all of the articles that I have created, standardizing all of the pages and possibly going around the area and adding photography of the schools to all of the pages. I have designed a larger plan for the American High School article. As you can see, I am making applying a new organizational scheme. The first section that I have added so far is about the Student Body, and I plan on adding and reorganizing the rest of the article into sections about the Administration, Sports and Clubs, Academics. I have not finalized the plan for this, but I will figure this all out next week when I am back home. -Sukh17 23:21, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
