This rotating barnstar is in recognition of your constant and tireless work and dedication to accuracy on countless American Civil War articles on Wikipedia. Vaoverland 22:22, May 12, 2005 (UTC)
Although I am a computer guy by trade, I concentrate on American Civil War related topics. You can find out more about me on my website (http://posix.com/). If you would like to email me, my address is <first-name> <dot> <last-name> <at> sun.com. Hal Jespersen 00:09, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

My contributions
Here's a list of articles I have created or modified substantially. I don't include articles that I've simply cleaned up, but only those for which I consider myself the principal (if not always the original) author.
Style Guide and Watchlist
I have started a style guide, User:Hlj/CWediting, that describes style decisions I use for my articles, in the hope that others will follow my lead for Civil War articles. I also maintain a copy of my Watchlist in case you'd like to browse a large collection of Civil War pointers. (Note that I maintain the watchlist by a semi-manual process and it can therefore be slightly out of date.)
Battles and campaigns
Some of the battle articles I've written include maps that I've created myself. I used Macromedia Freehand and have shared the source files on my website (http://posix.com/CWmaps/).
