I apologize for my sloth in evaluating the above. Being new to the process, I was conscientously fumbling my way through, giving the article multiple readings and taking offline notes. A more proficient reviewer "played through", so to speak.

I did learn some interesting facts about the Revolution in the process. I thank you for the article that exposed me to them.

Georgejdorner (talk) 21:14, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
 * George, many thanks for your review. Right now I'm close to having all three supports, so if you have any other comments or critiques, please make them and I will try to address them.  If there's nothing else you see that needs to be addressed, you might want to close out your review (by either supporting or saying "no further comments") so another reviewer doesn't think that your review is still ongoing.  I'm glad to see some new people stepping in to review!  Keep at it.   Cdtew  (talk) 13:14, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Just so I keep above-board, if you disagree that it's of A-class quality, feel free to "Oppose". I'm not lobbying for your support, just trying to help you get used to the system.   Cdtew  (talk) 13:16, 5 August 2013 (UTC)


 * I am such a greenhorn at this that I did not realize that you needed more than one approval for an A-class assessment. I thought another editor had beaten me to the approval.

Georgejdorner (talk) 15:16, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Not a problem! ACR generally takes supports from three reviewers who performed fairly comprehensive reviews.  You can also specialize in reviewing certain things: Prose (style & spelling); Images (free use tags, captions, formatting); Citation (footnotes and bibliography, as well as spot-checking information in sources); Formatting (MOS compliance, etc.); or you can do like I do and just assess everything together.  After you've completed your review, you can Support, Oppose, or state that you're weakly supporting or weakly opposing something due to one issue that hasn't been resolved. Hope this helps!  Cdtew  (talk) 15:23, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Not about rating the article...just a general question. Can you tell me, or refer me to, any further information about conscription during the Revolution? I had always thought it a practice that only began during the Civil War.

My thanks in advance.

Georgejdorner (talk) 19:55, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I'll have to dig through my sources, but there were several states with enforced militia service for white, "unscrupulous" (ie: non-Quakers), adult men. There wasn't a federal (or Congressional) draft, but there also wasn't effectively a Centralized recruitment effort. Recruitment of all Continental soldiers was done at the state level. I'll let you know if I find anything.  Cdtew  (talk) 02:13, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

As a native Marylander, I had a great deal of Revolutionary War history dinned into me. I am familiar with the scattered recruitment practices for American troops. It's just that I have never before heard of conscription during that era. The earliest use of conscription I know of is by the Confederacy in 1862.

Hi Cdtew. I've posted some more comments.  ceran  thor 00:22, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

Review of interest
Since you participated in the review of Tadeusz Kościuszko for GA and/or A-classes, you may be interested in Featured article candidates/Tadeusz Kościuszko/archive1 (at this point there are few substantial comments there, and the article is likely to be failed due to lack of community's interest). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 14:35, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Piotrus, I am happy to take a look. I was generally satisfied with the way things went in ACR, and had I realized it had been nominated, I would have added my support long ago.   Cdtew  (talk) 14:46, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

WP:FOUR RFC
There are two WP:RFCs at WP:FOUR. The first is to conflate issues so as to keep people from expressing meaningful opinions. The second, by me, is claimed to be less than neutral by proponents of the first. Please look at the second one, which I think is much better.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 06:19, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Fun at Big Brother 15?
Having fun, yet? :) I've made an page protection request - mostly to deal with the child pornography comment problem (although it will indirectly help with some of the edit warring problem).

WT:FOUR
I know you're probably tired of this (I'm getting fed up too), but as Tony seems to be implying that you are a racist (he uses the word four five times in opposing the proposed closure you made) you may want to comment at WT:FOUR. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:55, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Article review
Your memory must be better than mine, I can't find any article of yours I've reviewed (or vice versa). Could you drop me a reminder? Sorry for partially being responsible for ruining your morning. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:46, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
 * No, you didn't ruin my morning. I thought you had reviewed an article of mine, but I could be entirely mistaken.  In fact, looking through my stuff I see I was mistaken.  Sorry!  I don't know why I thought you had.  By the by, I'm a lawyer, so all of my mornings are like this, just usually not about me.   Cdtew  (talk) 13:50, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
 * No kidding. Alright, well I'm going to try and avoid the horse at ANI for now... hopefully when Tony's block expires he's ready to apologize. (BTW, watchlisted) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:59, 30 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Another mention at AN here. Not a particularly high-profile mention, but I figured I should follow protocol. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:32, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

 * No, I didn't, but it doesn't surprise me. He seems to think he'll walk in and "valiantly return the prodigal children to their rightful home" or some pseudo-heroic thing like that. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:04, 2 September 2013 (UTC)

MilHist Coordinator Election 2013
Hi there, just letting you know I think you'd make a fine addition to the coord team if you're interested -- you'd just have to nominate here... Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 05:07, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Ian, thank for your vote of confidence. I would love to help out in any way I can, but would be worried that my IRL job (lawyer) may at times make it harder for me to contribute.  Additionally, I respect all of the current Leads/Coordinators, so I don't want to step on anyone's toes by competing for anything.  I may lay low a little while longer and throw my hat in the ring if the field looks thin.   Cdtew  (talk) 13:59, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Fair enough, I know you'll continue to contribute in a positive way whenever you can, whether a coord or not. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 14:44, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Ian, after seeing that one of the sitting coords chose not to run again, I figured I might as well sign up. I'm open to any questions you may have, and I appreciate you bringing this opportunity to my attention.   Cdtew  (talk) 17:25, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

Signpost
Hey Clark, I hope you're well! After reading your Milhist coordinator nomination statement (esp. "I want to be more involved in the community"), I was curious to know if you'd be interested in contributing to the Signpost's "Featured content" section, which summarizes the English Wikipedia's new featured material on a weekly basis. The two people currently involved are looking to do the "Discussion report" (Pine) and trying to balance their time between other Wikimedia roles (Hahc21). In addition to the summaries, you'll have editorial independence to seek out underappreciated topic areas and editors to tell their stories to a relatively wide readership on the English Wikipedia and around the Wikimedia movement. Feel free to take some time to think it over (if needed) and get back to me when you can! Thanks, Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 14:38, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Having formerly done it (for almost a year) I'll let you know it took me perhaps 3 to 5 hours a week, depending on the amount of FC and if I interviewed someone or not. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:41, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
 * I would be happy to pitch in! Would I be going at this solo, or would there be assistance from those already doing the job?  My two caveats are that I may need some lead-in time to get up to speed, and my sometimes volatile work schedule would make it helpful if there were others who could cover for me in the rare event I get overwhelmed.  I appreciate you thinking of me for this, and look forward to helping.   Cdtew  (talk) 20:35, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
 * That's great! You will be working with when he's free, and hopefully at least one other editor if I can tempt them into doing it (suggestions welcome!).  can assist at times but would rather focus on the discussion report. I'm sure both will be happy to help with getting you acclimated to the regular format. :-) You're free to start on this week's edition, which will hopefully be published early Friday UTC, or next week. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 04:58, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

Also, since this is my first go-round, I'd appreciate any constructive/destructive criticism, and feel free to edit my contributions as much as needed.  Cdtew  (talk) 15:08, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Don't worry. Do as much as you are able to, and I'll do the rest. I will be able to do so tonights after all the work I have awaiting for me is done. Cheers! — ΛΧΣ  21  18:41, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Good job with the report. You wrote longer descriptions than necessary but the extra detail is good. do you think you and  can do the job without me next week so I can get back to DR? --Pine✉  07:09, 27 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Just a quick poke on this; it'll be a short one this week. :-) We normally coordinate by email, if that works for you&mdash;feel free to send me one at the.ed17@undefinedgmail if you'd like! Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 06:58, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

 * No worries, Clark! That sounds great. Thanks! Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 13:14, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

I've done some work, but since this is only my second try at this, I hope someone will look at it and tell me if I did anything boneheaded, or if the title I made is too stupid.  Cdtew  (talk) 03:26, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

I think biggest issue is structure and the style; one thing that's not an issue is your drive and passion for the subject.  Keep those things, and you'll get this improved well enough.

FA congratulations
Just a quick note to congratulate you on the promotion of Francis Nash to FA status recently. If you would like to see this (or any other FA you may have helped to write) appear as "Today's featured article" soon, please nominate it at the requests page; if you'd like to see an FA on a particular date in the next year or so, please add it to the "pending" list. In the absence of a request, the article may end up being picked at any time (although with 1,327 articles in Category:Featured articles that have not appeared on the main page at present, there's no telling how long – or short! – the wait might be). If you'd got any TFA-related questions or problems, please let me know. Thanks, BencherliteTalk 10:12, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

At WikiProject Military history/Assessment/Spanish conquest of Petén, the closer probably just forgot to check for new comments before he ran his closing script.

Hey Cdtew :). As mentioned on the Milhist coordinators talkpage, we've opened Flow up for community testing.

Main Page appearance: Robert Howe (Continental Army officer)
This is a note to let the main editors of Robert Howe (Continental Army officer) know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on December 29, 2013. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask. You can view the TFA blurb at Today's featured article/December 29, 2013. If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Robert Howe (1732–86) was a Continental Army general from North Carolina during the American Revolutionary War. He was one of only five general officers, and the only major general, in the Continental Army from that state. At the outset of the war, he was appointed a brigadier general in the Continental Army, and eventually became commander of the Southern Department. His early military career was contentious and consumed by conflict with political and military leaders in Georgia and South Carolina. These confrontations, including a 1778 duel with Christopher Gadsden, and Howe's reputation as a womanizer eventually led to his removal from command over the Southern Department. Prior to the formal turnover of his command, Howe commanded the Continental Army and Patriot militia forces in defeat in the First Battle of Savannah. He later sat as a senior officer on the court-martial board that sentenced British officer John André, a co-conspirator of Benedict Arnold, to death. Howe himself was accused of attempting to defect to the British, but the accusations were cast aside at the time as a British stratagem. He died in December 1786 after being elected to the North Carolina House of Commons. UcuchaBot (talk) 23:01, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

March Madness 2017
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:


 * tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
 * updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
 * creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017.

Greetings,

"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians.

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive
G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:


 * tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
 * adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
 * updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
 * creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

Backlog Banzai
In the month of September, Wikiproject Military history is running a project-wide edit-a-thon, Backlog Banzai. There are heaps of different areas you can work on, for which you claim points, and at the end of the month all sorts of whiz-bang awards will be handed out. Every player wins a prize! There is even a bit of friendly competition built in for those that like that sort of thing. Sign up now at WikiProject Military history/September 2019 Backlog Banzai to take part.

They do not, however, have any authority over article content or editor conduct, or any other special powers. More information on being a coordinator is available here. If you are interested in running, please sign up here by 23:59 UTC on 14 September! Voting doesn't commence until 15 September.

Peer review John Neal article?
Could I interest you in participating in a peer review of John Neal (writer)? I recently overhauled the whole thing, replacing the article I wrote in 2006 and that had slowly improved over the following 14 years through small efforts by myself and others over that time. I think the new article is a major improvement and hopefully worth getting the article's status upgraded, but before I request that upgrade, I put out a request for peer review.

I am asking you since you are listed a volunteer peer review editor interested in American early Republic and Antebellum era history to which this figure contributed.

The peer review request is linked at the top of talk:John Neal (writer).

Thanks in advance for the help!

Inactive peer review volunteer
Hi Cdtew, you're receiving this message because you were previously listed at the list of volunteers for Wikipedia's peer review process, but you haven't made any edits to the English Wikipedia in over 1 year.

Because of your inactivity, you have been removed from the volunteers list, so that the list is kept up to date and editors who do need help can better find active editors. If you become active again and would like to add yourself to the volunteers list again, you can do so at any time by visiting the volunteers list.

Thank you for volunteering to be on the list previously, and all the best on your WikiVoyages! Message delivered to you with love by Yapperbot :) &#124; Is this wrong? Contact my bot operator. &#124; Sent at 18:00, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

Help with updating Edelson article?
Hi there. I noticed that you’re a participant in the Law WikiProject, so I was wondering if you might be willing to take a look at some edits I suggested a few months ago for the Edelson article? They’ve been stuck in the Request Edits Proposal line for a while now, and since I have a conflict of interest I can’t make the changes myself. Thanks! Mtd6596 (talk) 20:52, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
