== [[List of United Daughters of the Confederacy chapters]] ==

Hello. Are you interested in working on a [[List of United Daughters of the Confederacy chapters]] please? Each state would have a horizontal axis for each location, with a vertical axis for their date of creation, the name of the co-founders, and wikilinks to the monuments they erected.[[User:Zigzig20s|Zigzig20s]] ([[User talk:Zigzig20s|talk]]) 13:15, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
:{{yo|Zigzig20s}} I just found this, I went in the hospital on Monday morning and got out an hour ago.  Here is what i can contribute. You set up the list (chart?) send me a blue link and then as I add CSA monuments to the UDC monument article and discover chapters I will add them on.  I am not sure how much editing I am going to be doing, for sure not a lot of sitting down in any case (don't ask unless you mean it).  How does that sound? [[User:Carptrash|Carptrash]] ([[User talk:Carptrash#top|talk]]) 16:52, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
::Very sorry to hear that--I hope you feel better soon. The main idea is to have a list of all the local chapters with when they were created (and possibly closed down) , who were the co-founders, etc. But I'm not sure where to retrieve the information. Also, would this be Original Research?[[User:Zigzig20s|Zigzig20s]] ([[User talk:Zigzig20s|talk]]) 18:10, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
:::Stuff ([[opinion]]) is only original research if you come up with it on your own.  If you "research" it from sources that you can list it is not OR.  I am assuming that UDC is still an active organization, I'd email them.  But I would include a prototype chart that includes the fields that you think should be included, see what they have to say.  They might already have a lot of info that they will pass on to you.  Also see what this [https://www.hqudc.org/divisions/] does for you. [[User:Carptrash|Carptrash]] ([[User talk:Carptrash#top|talk]]) 18:15, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
::::Yes I saw this but there must be many more chapters that closed down. The trick is how to find them.[[User:Zigzig20s|Zigzig20s]] ([[User talk:Zigzig20s|talk]]) 18:22, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
:::::To me this sounds like piece work.  Which is to say, one at a time. What I would do, and it is not how a lot of editors approach things, is that I would start a chart with one or two chapters.  Get your fields in order and that sort of thing.  Then just start adding to it as chapters are discovered.  I believe (and this more "art" than "science") that there will turn out to be hundreds of chapters. I'd set up the chart like the [[List of monuments erected by the United Daughters of the Confederacy]], by state and then alphabetically by town on county (not quite sure how these are done) and then just start plugging them in.

== ''[[Dixie's Daughters]]'' ==

I am taking a short break from WP due to sadness over an AFD, and reading ''[[Dixie's Daughters]]''. Have you read it?[[User:Zigzig20s|Zigzig20s]] ([[User talk:Zigzig20s|talk]]) 02:14, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
:{{yo|Zigzig20s}}, What was the AFD?  I have not read ''Dixie Daughters'', but a quick look has revealed that it would be of interest.  Tomorrow I volunteer at the local library, I will check there and if they do not have it I will suggest that they get it.  If it is anywhere in the rather large Maricopa County library system I can get it but it costs $6 to interlibrary loan from outside the system and I don't do that as a matter of principle.  I do know that these are people, the Daughters, that I will feel are not on my team.  I am currently reading a history of the KKK and these ladies are their mothers, wives, sisters and daughters. Thanks for the tip. [[User:Carptrash|Carptrash]] ([[User talk:Carptrash#top|talk]]) 04:59, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

::What's the title of the book please? My impression is that most Klansmen were financially successful (due to nepotism, corruption, convict leasing, etc.).

:::{{yo|Zigzig20s}} The book I am reading (I am a slow reader) is ''The Ku Klux Klan: A Century of Infamy'' by William Peirce Randel (1965).  He is still in the Reconstruction years so the financially successful part has not happened yet.  But I believe that in that way the Klan worked like any other fraternal organization.  Probably not much more self serving than the Moose Lodge or Chamber of Commerce. I will keep you thought in mind as I continue.

:::::::And to me the purpose of the C of C and other such organizations is to advance "nepotism, corruption, convict leasing, etc." and other profitable business practices,  whereas the primary KKK's objectives were to advance its social agenda. The members that were businessmen no doubt took advantage of the connections that the organization provided.  The "mob' is (opinion) something else entirely.

:::::::::{{yo|Zigzig20s}} I agree that much, most, all of what they did was criminal and it was pretty organized.  However to my way of thinking "organized crime" suggests that there is $$$$$$ involved and I don't believe that this was the case with the KKK.  They actually believed all the racial crap they spouted.  For a long time Southern white men had been having babies with their slaves and then selling the children, their own children off.  Not because of the money, though I am sure they never turned it away, but because they were swine. Yes, when they drove out the blacks someone always profited by getting the land left behind, but that was not the primary reason for doing it.  I recently read a book (can't remember the title) where a county in GA drove out all the blacks and kept them out until the Civil Rights era.  But this is not, to me, "organized crime."

: {{yo|Zigzig20s}} That list has (my opinion) serious problems, check out the talk pages, though I believe that you were there (though not one of the bad guys in my book).  That list is politically motivated, or perhaps "front page motivated."  It is supposed to be a list but the monuments don't even start until two pages down because there has to be the graph and all sorts of other information.  Check out [[List of statues of Stalin]], for example.  No one seems to feel a need to explain why Stalin was such a rotter, they just list the statues.  Then I don't feel that streets, roads and even lanes should be considered memorials in this setting but because the SPLC did we had to do it too.  That's why I started the UDC monuments article. I was called a "hate group member" and attempting to "white wash history" (ie. a racist) there so left. [[User:Carptrash|Carptrash]] ([[User talk:Carptrash#top|talk]]) 18:41, 6 December 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 [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Military_history/Awards#"Military_historian_of_the_Year"|Military Historian of the Year]] and the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Military_history/Awards#"Military_history_Newcomer_of_the_Year"|Military History Newcomer of the Year]]. The [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Coordinators|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: [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history#Nominations_for_military_historian_of_the_year_for_2017_now_open!|here]] and [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history#Nominations_for_military_history_newcomer_of_the_year_for_2017_now_open!|here]].

Hello.

== Snowflake Bentley ==

Hello Einar<br> 
Thanks for [[User talk:Moonraker12#I am wondering why|your note]]; sorry for the delay in replying (blame the flu!) As to your question, I noticed that the Bentley article had a comparison to Blossfeldt in the text ([https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wilson_Bentley&diff=820639358&oldid=820628528 here]). I couldn't really see the point of this; there was nothing to suggest they knew each other, or (given that the readership here are more likely to have heard of Bentley than Blossfeldt) that such a comparison would be useful. So I deleted it, but it seemed worth mentioning as a see also there. So, to be even-handed, I added Bentley as a see also to the Blossfeldt page. I hope that helps, [[User:Moonraker12|Moonraker12]] ([[User talk:Moonraker12|talk]]) 15:10, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
:No worries, chat away! (and thank you, yes, I'm betterish). I hadn't realized the Blossfeldt page got so much stick! Anyway, all the best, [[User:Moonraker12|Moonraker12]] ([[User talk:Moonraker12|talk]]) 17:58, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

== The Wrecking Crew ==

My thing about The Wrecking Crew was not a rant by any means, but rather I was intending to dispel the myths and certain exaggerations. It must be noted that, according to Jon Stebbins' FAQ work, The Beach Boys have been unfairly written off by journalists as a band who never played on their own records, but that's far from the truth.

== February 2018 ==
[[Image:information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Please don't change the format of dates, as you did to [[:Hannibal]]. As a general rule, if an article has evolved using predominantly one format, the dates should be left in the format they were originally written in, unless there are reasons for changing it based on '''strong''' national ties to the topic. Please also note that Wikipedia does not use ordinal suffixes (e.g., st, nd, th), articles, or leading zeros on dates.

For more information about how dates should be written on Wikipedia, please see [[WP:DATE|this page]].

If you have any questions about this, ask me on my talk page, or place <code><nowiki>{{helpme}}</nowiki></code> on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Enjoy your time on Wikipedia. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-date --> [[User:Meters|Meters]] ([[User talk:Meters|talk]]) 21:43, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

Are there any? I suppose perhaps [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Obelisco_en_conmemoraci%C3%B3n_a_los_cadetes_y_personal_del_Colegio_Militar_1847.JPG this one] on the Mexican side.

:So my first question, {{yo|Zigzig20s}} is to define the terms.  Since many, almost most, of the generals who fought in the Civl War were veterans of the Mexican American War we can find a reference to it on a lot of monuments to them.  Does that count?  Then there is Gen [[Winfield Scott]], who, as I recall (dangerous territory) led the US forces in that was but was pretty much a bust in the Civil War.  I suspect (guess) that statues of him typically have him in his MAWar uniform.  Does that count?  Are you starting an article about them?  Where do you want to store such monuments when they arise.  I remember finding a memorial to a guy who was killed during the war in a cemetery in Philadelphia. Does that count? I think that the Civil War happened so soon after it that the focus on muniments was put there.  I don't remember what the inscription of the monument in Santa Fe Plaza says, it could be one. But we shall see what we shall see. [[User:Carptrash|Carptrash]] ([[User talk:Carptrash#top|talk]]) 16:07, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
::No mention of it in [[Santa Fe Plaza]]. Could you please add an RS? I think the memorials on this list should make ''specific'' references to the war or battles.[[User:Zigzig20s|Zigzig20s]] ([[User talk:Zigzig20s|talk]]) 19:16, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

== April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive ==

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history|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 [[Wikipedia: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 [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive|here]].

Thank you for uploading '''[[:File:Lisa Law & unidentified woman.jpg]]'''. 

This image is a [[derivative work]], <s>containing an "image within an image".

== Talk page indentation ==

Hi Carptrash! Just a quick comment regarding an edit you made to my talk page post [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Talk:Nazi_Party&diff=next&oldid=844721336 here] - I don't mind that - but as you changed it, now it seems like I'm saying "Not Done: FAQ" to you, since you nested my post under your reply. Of course, everybody will understand that I was replying to the editor that requested the change, but in more complicated discussions with many threads, such indentation changes may make a discussion harder to follow. You might want to take a look at [[WP:INDENT]], just for future reference. =)

I fear that sometimes my intentions don't come as they should in text - so, once again - in no way am I complaining about your edit, it was in good faith, I don't mind it, you do not need to revert it, and nobody will get confused by that. I just wanted to mention how identing works, just in case. Have a great Wednesday! =) [[User:Byteflush|<b style="font-family:courier;box-shadow:2px 1px 4px #aaa;border:1px solid #ccc;padding:0 6px;background:linear-gradient(#fff,#ddd);color:#476;border-radius:6px">byteflush</b>]] <sub style="margin:0 2px">[[User talk:Byteflush|Talk]]</sub> 23:56, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
