[edit] Camouflage Clothing

I'm not sure this is the best idea for an article. Firstly, with titles and headings, and links etc as well, please avoid using capitals unless there is some reason to. The article should have been named camouflage clothing, for example, and See Also should be See also (everyone seems to make this mistake when new here, I did myself). Secondly, camouflage in nature is quite irrelevant to an article on clothing, so there is no need to try to repeat the material already available at camouflage, crypsis, mimicry etc. For headings, use the code ==Heading==, not Heading. To link to articles just use [[link]], don't give a url. Finally, it's a good idea to discuss new articles before creating them, at least when you are new here. The Wikipedia:Drawing board and existing articles like Military camouflage would be good places to bring it up. There might be some place here for such an article but I doubt it, and it's likely to be nominated for deletion in its current state, as it duplicates a lot of content from other articles and doesn't cite any references, which you should always do when creating new materials.
