A suggestion

I hope you don't mind a suggestion, but I stubled across this and thought I might offer one. First, it looks as if you are writing this to populate the MilHist Academy? I'm not sure what contraints you do or don't have for size, but there was one aspect I thought might be missing: unlicensed, copyleft, public domain, and other free use sources. This is especially relevant to editors that wish to write about ancient history (any copyright claims are long since expired) and the United States military (who publishes just about everything in the PD).

The only reason I hesitated initially to do this is because there is a lot of debate on Wikipedia about how precisely PD sources should be handled. What do you think about pointing interested readers to other parts of Wikipedia for a variety of alternatives? Awadewit (talk) 15:33, 27 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
