2540:. Since I am the primary contributor to this article, my rationale for using dmy, besides finding it to be approved according to the MOS, was who I thought the intended readers would be. Articles on Eisenhower and Patton are going to get a lot of general readership. Middleton, on the other hand, is a lesser known general, and my thinking when I wrote the material, rightly or wrongly, was that a bulk of the readers of this article would be military people like myself. As I wrote the various sections, I envisioned them being read by student officers at the Command and General Staff School, or maybe even the Army War College. Again, I may be way out in left field, but to my thinking dmy is not only approved by the MOS, but it would be something very suitable and fitting to the perceived readership. So what about the other articles; should they be changed? Heck no. Leave them be. Let a consensus emerge as they move along. And if all else fails, remember to

Sarnold's comment that I only changed a few dates on that article and left the rest alone. I didn't see those until after I made the edit and had planned on making those changes at a near later time, like within the next few hours, but now we are discussing, so I won't make any changes until later, or in which time those changes are made by another. I'm sure SArnold has only the best interests in mind, so I'm not questioning his good faith, but he does have a history of using DMY dates in other articles on People with Strong national ties to the US as well. It's his preferred method, but we should really follow the guideline. FYI, I will keep my communications on this thread from now on, so as to attempt to keep the entire conversation in one place.--

1514:** I would much prefer to leave this section the way it is. When discussing family backgrounds, most articles begin with the subject, then mention parents, and then possibly grandparents and prominent relatives. I've just extended this line of thinking back a few more generations to show the family's connection with the nation as a whole, and to highlight some of the military service of Middleton's forebears. If this were a genealogical account about the Middleton family, then it would begin with the earliest known ancestor and move forward chronologically. The focus here, however, is Troy Middleton, so I feel it is appropriate to begin with him, and work back to his earliest known ancestor.
2509:
at least bring that issue up, the next time a biography of a US military person gets nominated. I also believe that these articles are not for the military reader, but are meant for the general reader. We shouldn't get too technical with some of the jargon and in this case the dates. We should use the common date format in the country represented. In the case of the United States thats "MDY". The military has its own reasons for using that date format, which as I mentioned before, has been modified on these articles. Therese no logical need to use that same date format here on
Knowledge.--
