Need Categories for Military

Question

Just as we have a series of categories for Needs Profiles Created, I believe that we need a series for each state for Need Military Work to include research, additions to the Biography and stickers. I just came across a reference to a Colonel as a side note in research on a profile I was working on, but was going to ignore it because it is outside the area I am studying. So instead I created this G2G posting.

Answer 1

Judy, Military and War project has maintenance categories. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Military_and_War_Project_Maintenance_Categories

 "Needs Military Work" is a bit too unspecific to be of much use, and we definitely would not break them down by location, but by war. Also, there are subprojects, usually by War. Needs biography has its own category, so use the state for that.

I could add a category such as [[Category:Military and War, Needs Sticker]] but really it's up to PM's to do these things. Stickers are not mandatory. I like to see them in any project-managed profiles, but most of those already have the appropriate sticker.

If your [[Category:Military and War, Needs Sticker]] existed, then I would use that. How about just Military and War, Needs Research?

Also, I don't understand your suggestion of Needs Biography. How is that different? when would you use that? If I see one that needs a Biography, I just provide it.

You said "additions to the biography" and that is the closest thing. If you used Needs Biography and left a research note in the bio, it could be explained.
