[edit] A note about attribution
Just to let you know that authors and contributers in Wikipedia do not sign their contributions - no matter how much a single author has contributed to an article. Feel free to mention your contributions to an article in your personal page, however. Lots of people do that :)
For example, you can check the Third Servile War - which is mostly my doing - and I haven't signed it anywhere - except in the history log which shows my work, edit by edit. I do kinda brag about it on my user page though ;)
Just letting you know a little of the etiquette here, not criticizing. Any meaningful contribution is very much appreciated here, and I hope you will continue to write and contribute to Wikipedia.
If you have any questions, or comments, please feel free to leave me a message on my own talk page :) - Vedexent (talk) - 23:50, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Contributing
Hello there, I see you have made some major edits. Please make sure to use proper spelling and grammar when contributing. A good idea would be to type your edits in a word processor (like Microsoft Word) and then submit them after doing a spellcheck. If you don't do this you make other people spend a lot of time cleaning up after you. Otherwise, keep up the good work! shoeofdeath 20:04, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Page Change
Roman war against Antiochus III has been moved to Roman-Syrian War as requested. I hope to add more information to the article from several ancient historians soon. Crispus 03:01, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Welcome to the Military history WikiProject!
Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.
A few features that you might find helpful:
- Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
- The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can watchlist it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WPMILHIST Announcements}} there.
- Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
- The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, peer review, and project-wide collaboration.
- We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
- We've developed a variety of guidelines for article structure and content, template use, categorization, and other issues that you may find useful.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the project coordinators, or any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! Kirill Lokshin 13:31, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
