Talk:Military Selective Service Act

It is not clear from this article and others whether or not college age exemptions were granted under this act at this time I would like to see an article covering the history of college age exemptions

What does this article mean?
Unless you knew what this article was about, you would not know what the hell it was about! I came onto this article from an entirely unrelated one, a completely and totally different one which merely referenced the content of this one as part of a comparison.

Here's a quotation from Selective Service Act of 1917: authorized the United States federal government to raise a national army for service in World War I through conscription.

That is a brief summary of content, exactly what is missing from this article. But hey, that's cool, because nobody who didn't already know what this article was about would ever stray onto it in search of, Gosh! I don't know, maybe education about something they didn't already know about, would they?!

 * Yup. An utterly useless article, to anyone who doesn't already know what the act actually did. AndyTheGrump (talk) 02:40, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
