I considered that option, but it seemed more useful to have a partial but accurate article until I can return to it. As it is, a reader can at least find the reporter citation if they desire to pull up the entire case. That can be useful for attorneys and legal scholars that research like I do. I would appreciate your thoughts on that. Also, can you tell me if there is a way to use another article as a template? For instance, much of the formatting from Schenck v. United States is applicable here and it would be much easier to start from there and plug in the information. JTomberlin (talk) 15:54, 30 April 2012 (UTC)
