[edit] Setting up...

I have a worksheet at User:CQ/ACW-1 from which I compiled the following list: Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia. Those 23 are the ones that have [state] in the Civil War articles. Louisiana would make an even 24. I suugest we make 24 synopsis articles titled:

1. Portal:American Civil War/Alabama
2. Portal:American Civil War/Arizona
3. Portal:American Civil War/California
4. Portal:American Civil War/Colorado
5. Portal:American Civil War/Florida
6. Portal:American Civil War/Georgia
7. Portal:American Civil War/Illinois
8. Portal:American Civil War/Iowa
9. Portal:American Civil War/Kansas
10. Portal:American Civil War/Kentucky
11. Portal:American Civil War/Louisiana
12. Portal:American Civil War/Maryland
13. Portal:American Civil War/Massachusetts
14. Portal:American Civil War/Mississippi
15. Portal:American Civil War/Missouri
16. Portal:American Civil War/New Mexico
17. Portal:American Civil War/North Carolina
18. Portal:American Civil War/Ohio
19. Portal:American Civil War/Pennsylvania
20. Portal:American Civil War/South Carolina
21. Portal:American Civil War/Tennessee
22. Portal:American Civil War/Texas
23. Portal:American Civil War/Vermont
24. Portal:American Civil War/Virginia

Did I leave anyone out? (Idaho and West Virginia present interesting cavaats in the ACW context). That makes 26. Now we can stick in those and two special articles:

1. Portal:American Civil War/Washington DC
2. Portal:American Civil War/Border states

Those will go at the top and bottom of the parade.

Good idea! I created a few of those articles, and appreciate your interest in getting them some visibility. Scott Mingus 20:59, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
