Plan
In order to integrate this article into the Twelve Colonies series, I intend to:
- Merge content from Articles of Colonization.
- Move to Government of the Twelve Colonies.
I don't think fleet-specific information should remain here long term, as it probably deserves an article of its own - "Government of the Fleet" or somesuch - but that can wait until we put together a parallel Fleet Topics series, which is rather low on my to-do list. In the meantime, this remains the best place for both pre- and post-holocaust government information. --Peter Farago 16:38, 18 September 2005 (EDT)
Italized Conventions in this Article
When comparing and contrasting the Colonial way to the US way of government, items were marked in italics. Should this be the way we note non-show components of this article. Peter's revert of items that, based on previous items in the article, should have been italized as well, confuses me. Spencerian 11:38, 20 October 2005 (EDT)
- I see your point. The phrase is "Numerous civil liberties are guaranteed under the Articles of Colonization, many of them apparently analogous to the United States Bill of Rights."
- The first half of that sentence is directly related to the Colonies, and shouldn't be italicized. I think I'm just going to remove the second half of that - it doesn't add much. --Peter Farago 14:41, 20 October 2005 (EDT)
