Talk:Combat lifesaver

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Combat lifesaver was a good article candidate, but did not meet the good article criteria at the time. Once the objections listed below are addressed, the article can be renominated. You may also seek a review of the decision if you feel there was a mistake. Date of review: 2007-03-28

[edit] some discussion

Are you people nuts we would never teach a CLS guy intubation..... I'm a U.S. Army medic currently on my second deployment. Part of my job is teaching these guys their skills and that is insane. The most advanced thing they can do is give an IV or do a chest needle decompression.

[edit] Regarding medical techniques

I have altered the article to be more inline with sourcing. If changes to the medical skills, please source. Thanks, Navou ^banter / _{review me} 02:36, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA failed

I have failed this article according to the GA criteria. Please look over the criteria to see how you can further improve the article to be able to reach GA status. Mainly, the article needs more sources and inline citations, needs to be expanded with more information to fulfill the broad requirement (maybe cover the history of the lifesaver (when did it originate, who makes it, etc.), who currently uses the lifesaver (such as military, other countries, etc.) and any other information you think will help to fully explain the subject to the reader. Keep working on it and consider GA again in the future when you think the article reaches all of the criteria. --Nehrams2020 17:39, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
