Major Revision
[edit]I am starting a major revision of this article. The article was one of a catagory of articles on the various state National Guard organizations, which contained no state specific information, but just gave a generic backgound on the National Guard in general. I have started by borrowing heavily from the exisiting Wikipedia articles on the varrious Arkansas National Guard units and I intend to rely heavily on the Official Arkansas National Guard website.[1] , The Arkansas National Guard Museum website varrious Annual Reports from the state Adjutant General, and a paper entitled Arkansas Army and Air National Guard, A Histor and Record of Events, 1820-1962, Prepared by Harry W. Smith, Colonel, Retired, Historian, Arkansas Military Department, 21 December 1962.
Considering Breaking Up
[edit]Because of the length, I am considering breaking the article into the following parts:
- History of the Territorial Militia, 1803-1836. This would be fairly short, but there is some additional information not currently included which needs to be added.
- History of the Arkansas State Guard, 1836-1903. This would cover the Mexican War, the Civil War, the Militia actions during Reconstruction, and the Spanish American War.
- History of the Arkansas National Guard, 1903-1950. This would begin with the reorganization of the Guard under the 1903 National Defense Act, also known as the Dick Act, which changed the name from State Guard to National Guard and provided Federal Funding, and continue through WWI until the creation of the Air National Guard as a separate department.
- History of the Arkansas Army National Guard, 1950 to Present. This article would begin with the Korean Conflict and continue through the Global War on Terrorism.
- History of the Arkansas Air National Guard, 1950 to Present. This article would begin with the Korean Conflict and continue through the Global War on Terrorism.

Orphaned references in Arkansas Army National Guard
[edit]I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Arkansas Army National Guard's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "lineage":
- From 411th Engineer Brigade (United States): Lineage and Honors: 411th Engineer Brigade, United States Army Center of Military History. Retrieved 08-28-2008.
- From 153rd Infantry Regiment (United States): Lineage and Honors Certificate, 153rd Infantry, signed John W. Mountcastel, Brigadier General, United States Army, Chief Military History
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Damon.cluck (talk) 01:21, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

New Plan for Split of Article
[edit]I have a new plan for the split of this article. I am built a new template for a Arkansas National Guard Series Template:Arkansas National Guard Series and I am using it as a guide for the split. I am developing the Splits in my user space, correcting the referencing issue which the split creates, and writing new lead sections and then moving them to the live area. Arkansas Militia in the Civil War is complete and has been moved to the live section.
- Arkansas National Guard Series
- Arkansas Territorial Militia
- Arkansas Militia and the War with Mexico
- Arkansas Regiment of Mounted Volunteers
- Arkansas Militia in Reconstruction
- Arkansas Militia in the Civil War
- Arkansas State Guard and the War with Spain
- Arkansas National Guard and World War I
- Arkansas National Guard and World War II
- Arkansas National Guard and the Cold War
- Arkansas Army National Guard and the Korean War
- Arkansas National Guard at Central High
- Arkansas National Guard in Operation Desert Storm
- Arkansas National Guard and the Global War on Terrorism
The Big Split is Complete!
[edit]The Article has been split in to the following sub parts. I will leave the main article unchanged for a few more days and will then delete the History Section and just put links to the following articles:
- Template:Arkansas National Guard Series
- Arkansas National Guard
- Arkansas Territorial Militia
- Arkansas Militia and the War with Mexico
- Arkansas Militia in the Civil War
- Arkansas Militia in Reconstruction
- Arkansas State Guard and the Spanish-American War
- Arkansas Air National Guard
- Arkansas National Guard and the Intergration of Central High School
- Arkansas National Guard during World War I
- Arkansas National Guard and World War II
- Arkansas Army National Guard and the Cold War
- Arkansas Army National Guard and the Global War on Terrorism
- Arkansas Army National Guard and the Korean War
- Arkansas Army National Guard in Operation Desert Storm

The big delete
[edit]Since the article has now been split in to a series, it is time to reduce the size of the main article accordingly. All the history content has moved to the Arkansas National Guard Series. I will reduce the history section of the main article to a much shorter version designed to point readers to the series.
casulity lists
[edit]at the risk of getting hammered by the drama queens- I dont think we really need every causlity of every war of every unit listed on the ol wiki. unless of course your into listing half the population of the country. know what I mean vern. and if your going to do it, at least confine it to the unit page so its spread out.
