Looking at this, I thought it might be good to separate Currently Active people and people who are not active (resigned, quit, etc). Thoughts? --Ysselt 14:54, 16 September 2008 (CDT)

That's a good idea Ysselt but shouldn't we label them as active and inactive, or present and past? It's rather confusing. Manze 16:08, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Lieutenants & Sgt.

As the keeper of records for the Ilithi militia from inception until I retired, I have a ton of roster information. I'll be adding in the GMPC and PC information for Ambassadors & Commanders, but wondered if I should note any lower too. I know personally, my Lt's were very active, but that does open up a whole lot of names to the roster too. In Ilithi, each Commander could have 5 Lt., and each Lt. could have 5 Sgt. While not all the positions were filled for each team, most had a fair number. I'm sure that's the case for the other proviences too, I remember one of the Haven Commanders had mentioned having a full roster of over 100 at one point. --Kythryn 21:26, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

The page is meant to reflect only some of the positions. While I think the history of success is good, it probably belongs on a page for the specific militia section. Such as a Zoluren Militia page, broken down with rosters for each unit. We were trying to keep all FORMER positions separated from all current positions, so people had a reference for what someone "is now" opposed to what they "were". For example, Zoluren has a militia page presently. http://elanthipedia.com/wiki/Zoluren_Militia --Ysselt 01:47, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Seconded, move the historic information to a separate page so it doesn't confuse what's being tracked with the here and now. Zoluren started a page for it's militia, it probably should be expanded to their entire court. It make sense to do the same for every province with a player appointed militia/court structure.--Paschein 01:51, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

I would propose making generic official position pages for each province, since they do get pretty lengthy. Make sure to link to them from the provinces' pages. Reene 02:02, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, thinking this is the best bet, while leaving this page a "general quick reference guide" type thing and making a full list on the provincial pages (those could always use some love). If no one else gets to it, I can start it (but I'd rather not, I have math homework to do, guys). --Ysselt 13:14, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Since I opened the can of worms, I'll go ahead and make up the provincial 'history' pages today...or, you know, 'soon'. hehe. I had thought a chronological order would be better than the alphabetical when I was adding things yesterday, so unless there are objections, I may tinker with that too. I have the roster information from the Outcast era for the other provinces, but someone else will need to organize post-Outcast if I do that. Paschein, do you have a link to that Zoluren page handy? --Kythryn 23:39, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Link would be this one http://elanthipedia.com/wiki/Zoluren_Militia that probably needs some tweaking and anchoring to the Zoluren page somehow.--Paschein 01:33, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
