A news site?[edit]

This is a new site to me, and I cannot find the referenced article with a quick search of it. I have moved it back to develop because it was the same IP as posted the earlier new story to that. Someone who knows the welcome process want to give the user a hint or three? Brianmc 20:03, 25 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Done that. I hope he listens. But I do get the impression that the articles are advertisment for the website listed as source. --Deprifry|+T+ 20:12, 25 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Same suspicion as me then. :-) Hence rewriting it and commenting out the source. I suspect the site has copyvios of its own, the vague make-your-eyes-glaze-over statement up front may not even be compatible with CC. Brianmc 20:28, 25 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

title change?[edit]

i feel it's missing the fact that this is about deaths in iraq. Boneyard 08:07, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps "in Iraq" could be added at the end? - Apollyon 09:45, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
How about Pentagon announcement marks 2,000th military forces death in Iraqi conflict? If you like it, change to it. Brianmc 10:03, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
In my opinion, the current title is simple and sufficient. If these headlines need to be explicit though, it could be renamed Pentagon announces 2,000th U.S. military death since the 2003 Invasion of Iraq. Hall Monitor 17:26, 27 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
