Got an article that you think needs a lot of work? Suggest it here and we'll run an improvement drive on it!

Note: The command staff reserves the right to reject or accept any suggestions at any point for improvement drives until further notice --Forgottenlord 19:23, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Cairo (accepted)
I suggest Cairo Station, (not the level! =D ), for improvement. Although it does not need major improvement, there could be some more pictures of it, and perhaps any other things that people can find, such as grammar errors. Thank you,  What  did HaloDude  Do!?!  20:23, 1 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Alright, but you can be the one that ducks when Ajax finds out (that was his improvement drive about a month ago) --forgottenlord 16:28, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Pilots (accepted) and Platoons (rejected)

 * Hear me out, How about D Company itself? we have 170-so members and enough NCO's that we can organize into 3 or so 55-60 man platoons so instead of 170 members running around on three articles we can have 60 guys focusing on 1 article with 5 or so NCO's overseeing the edits and the Captain and XO manging who gets what articles.  Just a thought, might make ranks carry a litlle more weight than the basic XP they represent and gives some authority to others so Tony doesn't end up having to do evrything by himself or with only 2 or three people helping him


 * Also, how about Pilots--Ghanditheimpaler


 * I saw that idea being used in B Company, but B Company chose that method not because they wanted to give more power to lower ranks, but because the entire command staff was gone for a good week after the Company was formed. Personally, I don't think we've got a problem at this point that requires us to put more power into the lower ranks.  However, if you think that you or someone else in the company deserves a promotion, talk to Captain Tony or myself and we'll look.


 * On a side note, I'd like to point out that there's actually 57 people in the Company right now according to the guy who does the assigning of people to companies. --forgottenlord 16:28, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Yeah ur right, guess i accidentally put down the total members of the whole UoH, lol oh well. It may not be practicable now but i just kind of wanted to put it out on the table. And just to clarify i wasn't really thinking of giving the NCO's the power to manage the company but that Tony would give them an aricle and he would forward this on to his "squad" which would consist of a grab bag of various ranks and varying degrees of company involvment so you don't really have groups that have the same project for 4 months and others have their project for 40 minutes.

Finally should we disambiguate "pilots?" or just treat it like the noun. i just don't see how it would behoof us to lump Foehammer in with Knife 26 or 24 or whatever, i know i suggested it but that was b/c a) it was a mess and, b) i had no idea what the purpose of that article should be.GhandiTheImpaler


 * First, I have a problem with assigning a group a singular task. For example, one of our current projects is Dr Halsey.  Now Staff Sergeant HaloDude, he can't really do much on Dr Halsey - not because he doesn't want to do anything on her but simply because he doesn't have the books.  On the other hand, Corporal Kurt-spartan-051 has a few of the books and could easily do a fair bit on the page.


 * As for the page pilots, I'll take a look at it and leave some notes on the Company page sometime this week. If you don't see anything by the weekend, leave a note on my talk page. --forgottenlord 05:28, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
