::::I'm thinking about changing the "State" field to be the current state and list the state or territory as it existed at the time as the secondary fact. I think it will make the tables less cluttered and easier to use for most people. What do you think? [[User:Mojoworker|Mojoworker]] ([[User talk:Mojoworker#top|talk]]) 18:28, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

* Are you talking about the CWSAC table, or the Indian Wars table, or all of them? I don't think adding a new column to the CWSAC table would be a good idea. Too many columns, and many of them would be empty (because the state then is the same as the state now). In the Indian wars table, one more column wouldn't hurt (since we deleted the CWSAC rating column). But then the column headers would be something like "Territory" and "State" or even worse, "Current State" (which sounds like "current condition"). You have to put some explanatory text somewhere. I dunno if it would be more clear or not. You could try it and see how it comes out. I dunno. • [[User:Ling.Nut|Ling.Nut]] ([[User talk:Ling.Nut|talk]]) 23:44, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
