Welcome to the Military history WikiProject Collaboration of the Fortnight! This effort seeks to identify articles within the field of military history—including wars and battles, military units, biographies of people connected to the military, forts and other military structures, and many others—that require improvement. Every fortnight, a single article will be selected as the collaboration, and everyone will work to improve it as much as possible.

Nominating articles[edit]

To nominate an article, add
