[edit] Welcome!
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, detailed article and content review, offline publication, article improvement contests, and other tasks.
- 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! Carom 17:38, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Planning
Hey man, out in the real world I'm an architecture student in Tampa, but my passion is planning. Im particularly interested in the type of culture which results from a pedestrian, face-to-face arena compared to the culture generated from interaction from behind the windshield. The environmental impacts of automobile reliance via single-use planning are more and more recognizable but there has been some interesting commentary lately regarding the cultural impacts of having to drive everywhere and how that type of interaction doesn't actually improve our experience the way it was supposed to. And I think you would agree that traffic can't be solved, will only get worse, and we are obliged to start figuring out how me can meet our needs without relying on cars each step of the way. What do you think about the planning articles on here? Ive been busy lately but Im down to team up on an article to improve it if you think there are some that need attention. I don't even know how I happened on that Afghan article or why I bothered to comment on it. People get so sensitive on some of those articles that I usually wont bother to weigh in. Im sure some sensible medium exists, I will look for your suggestions on the talk page. Are you in the planning business or just concerned?Mmcknight4 23:10, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright problems with Image:Prentice.jpg
An image that you uploaded, Image:Prentice.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation. Please look there if you know that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), and then provide the necessary information there and on its page, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Lincolnite (talk) 13:32, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hi there. In addition to the standard message, I should point out what the problem is. The image you uploaded of Sen. Margarita Prentice comes from a WA state website and is therefore subject to copyright. Only images produced by the federal government are copyright-free, not those produced by state governments. Hope that makes sense. — Lincolnite (talk) 13:32, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
