== Taking The Class ==

So I know this is a very interesting atricle, but I have one question. I am taking Civics next year as part of a required corse and I was looking for some more information on what the class will cover. Does anyone have any ideas?? Thanks!!

Origin of the term

What is the origin of this term? When did it start being used, and by whom? Mr. Jones 10:36, 26 Feb 2004 (UTC)

I am also curious about this page and why "forms of government" is not a subsection under Politics. This is not right. Civics is a Latin term for society and this definition is adding things I didn't know. Civics is compartive government???? There are no references and no history of the term, no reference to it in Latin history. I am with Mr. Jones. This needs to be discussed and some references provided here.WHEELER 00:12, 30 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Civis is Latin for citizen.
Civitas is the technical Latin word for the right of citizenship. This current definition of this site is not right. It should all fall under Politics.WHEELER 00:14, 30 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Where it says "not conclusive," I think you really meant "not exhaustive." (Or maybe both?) Hal G

Needs serious cleanup

This article seems very unfocused and messy (especially compared to other political articles), and so I tagged it for cleanup. —  Stevie is the man!  Talk | Work 18:09, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
