I've restored the ancient text from November 2002 from the US history page. This text is going to form the bulk of a main page for the US history series, modeled after the main page of the History of Germany series. Mav and I will work on this summarized main page further from this point. 172

There is a new school-wide program at the High School where I teach that allows me to assign outside reading to students. I am amassing a reading list of fiction and non-fiction books that relate to U.S. history. If you have any recommendations, if there are books you think *all* U.S. teens should read, please post them at my Reading List. Kingturtle 18:20, 6 Sep 2003 (UTC)

The series table needs to be fixed - it is getting confused. Only articles that are daughters of this one should be in the table. Thus the Civil War entries need to be removed and a proper U.S. History daughter article needs to be created that covers that time period. The reason is simple: The Civil War is a topic onto itself, it is not a daughter of this article (which covers time periods not events). We need an article that deals with all U.S. history in that period - not just the Civil War. --mav 10:23, 28 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Could someone clarify "sectional?"
I'm not a history major, so maybe sectional means something that I'm unaware of. In the last sentence of History of the United States (1776-1861)we have "the territories ceded by Mexico became the focal point of sectional tensions over the expansion of slavery." Did the author mean "secessional" or is the word sectional, as used here, a synonym for regional?
- A synonym for regional. --Alex S 03:07, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Why the hell are there two U.S. history MediaWiki messages on the same page?
With one or two tiny variations they cover the same thing!! That's crazy! jengod 19:01, May 19, 2004 (UTC)
WWII Homefront
I seem to remember Wikipedia having an article on the U.S. homefront during World War II, but I can't seem to find it. Anyone seen it? -- Infrogmation 22:54, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Wikipedia:WikiProject History/Status
I have created Wikipedia:WikiProject History/Status, which has some notes about what needs to be done to make this article featured. Please add other suggestions and see what you can to help. Tuf-Kat
