I thought I was making this page when I made this page instead: http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Talk:Battle_of_Waterloo. Now which page do I get rid of and how?

How do I have this added to the page?: "This is a draft article, under development and not meant to be cited; you can help to improve it. These unapproved articles are subject to a disclaimer."

I realize I may need to cite the witnesses and commentators who mentioned Napoleon's ill-health that day as a factor. I have several scholarly books I can use for that.

I also realize I have not consulted any style manual. I expect the style, grammar, and punctuation need improvement. I decided to knock this out quickly and learn as I go.

I also realize the article needs a larger plan to refine it and expand it such as an outline.

I have not learned how to make subheadings yet. I have also not learned how to make words turn blue for links. I decided these things weren't essential skills for a very rough first draft.

The article certainly needs improvement but I'm not aware of any serious errors. Please correct me if I am wrong. Gary Leonard Cameron 21:43, 28 April 2012 (UTC) Category: False Start Move
