List of divisions (US army)
Hi Josterhage, and a somewhat belated (from me) welcome to Wikiversity. I was wondering about the above mentioned page and in particular: what is its educational purpose (i.e., how does it align with Wikiversity's mission)? - e.g., could you add some learning goals? Alternatively, if it is simply meant as a list, I'm wondering whether it might belong better within w:Category:United States military lists? Let me know if I can help. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 20:04, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Actually, I just saw that whoever created the Military Science page had added that as a "future link", or whatever it's called, and decided that I could help the project by adding the info. Looking back, and with more understanding of Wikiversity, I definitely feel this is more Encyclopedic material than anything else, and belongs on WP. Josterhage 06:54, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

That's fine, thanks for your reply - I had a quick look for the closest equivalent list on WP - maybe Nicknames of United States Army divisions? -- Jtneill - Talk - c 07:12, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Or maybe there is no equivalent list, but instead: w:Category:Armored divisions of the United States Army. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 07:15, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
