Re:Future Leaders
Some thoughts - first off, that page was an enormous copyright violation when I found it, which I removed. Then, I added back in information about FLOW, because the page said essentially nothing about them. Since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, rather than a news source, I thought it was important to include as much historical information about FLOW as I could find. You're welcome to add new information about Machina if you'd like. Chubbles (talk) 06:50, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

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, 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 style guide that covers article structure and content, template use, categorization, and many other issues of interest.
 * The project has a stress hotline available for your use.

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! Kirill 03:58, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

GA on hold
Your article United States Special Operations Command has been put on hold for its good article nomination. See the article's talk page for details, and reply to all messages there. If the article does not meet the requirements set forth on the talk page by March 15th, I have no choice but to fail the nomination. It can, of course, be renominated at a later date. Codharris (talk) 23:40, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Special reconnaissance article
With your edit today, is the point that Force Recon will stay with the FMF, while other components go to MARSOC? I wasn't sure if that was the point of your deletion of Force Recon. For that matter, will there be any difference betwee Force Recoon battalions and independent companies?

Remember, SR is a mission, and both Force Recon within Corps units, as well as MARSOC (and non-Marine SOC units) can perform it. Howard C. Berkowitz (talk) 16:18, 20 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure if they all have gone to MARSOC, but I'd have to research it. For example, my understanding is that a FR team is usually attached to a MEU. Would that now come from MARSOC?


 * There was a good deal of complaining, at the time of this proposal, that the Marines would lose necessary organic capability. The Army true SR units are in SOCOM, but there are intermediate-level recon units that do stay -- even the brigade combat teams have much more recon than the former brigades and even divisions. Howard C. Berkowitz (talk) 16:26, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

I will look into it also. If you go to the MARSOC website they have all they're units listed, and it doesn't list any FR groups, thats why I don't think FR is still operational. I know that there are still Marine Recon Battalions are operational but not under MARSOC or SOCOM. I think they receive most of the missions that Force Recon usually would have taken for the regular Marine Corps.Outdawg (talk) 16:37, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Hey congrats
Great work on the Strategic Support Branch and the USSOCOM articles. Do you believe the SSB is a reincarnation of the Intelligence Support Activity? - seems to be doing much the same thing. I was looking at the SOCOM article with a view to doing a GA nomination, but have no experience of them, so I thought I'd just leave a couple of notes: Best regards from Down Under.. Buckshot06 (talk) 08:56, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
 * the history jumps straight from 1987 to post September 11: you could easily, for example, put a note in about Schwarzkopf & ODS, and his reported views on SF, Just Cause, and Operation Gothic Serpent.
 * the unit descriptions are a bit US-official-website heavy. There are so so so many books out on special forces, some of which are good. You could bring some of that material in.
 * If you wish to move this process on a bit faster, you could run it through a MILHIST peer review, and then A-class, as an alternative.

All of that sounds good. Thanks for the advice. Outdawg (talk) 15:12, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Please slow down on the US SOF page
You have omitted important details and pared it down to a list that is incomplete. Please discuss on talk page. — BQZip01 — talk 02:47, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
 * For starters, you have omitted the description. Second, please realize this is not limited to SOCOM assets, but a broader range of topics. No one is questioning your motives, but you have pared it down so much that it has become a list and not an article. That said, perhaps a list article would be useful? — BQZip01 —  talk 03:01, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

You are right. The edits did make it more of a list than an article but much of the content that I removed are not U.S. SOF because they do not conduct special operations. I'm not going to go back and make the same edits but I am going to change certain parts of that article. Outdawg (talk) 03:09, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Joshua T. Harris
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Joshua T. Harris, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Proposed deletion of Jason D. Cunningham


The article Jason D. Cunningham has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Fails notability (WP:ONEEVENT and WP:MILPEOPLE)

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Novaseminary (talk) 18:27, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Neil C. Roberts
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Neil C. Roberts. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Articles for deletion/Neil C. Roberts. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:12, 17 April 2010 (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)

2017 Military Historian of the Year and Newcomer of the Year nominations and voting
As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. 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. Nominations and voting will take place on the main project talkpage: here and here. Thank you for your time. For the co-ordinators, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:35, 8 December 2017 (UTC)
