Article content

Under the "See Also" heading, there is this sentence: "The Resettlement Administration was produced in 1819. It helped people in the civil war." What, exactly, is this supposed to mean, and why is it there?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.177.204.52 (talk • contribs) 19:59, 17 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

I checked the history and it appears to have been vandalism. I have removed it. --Leon Sword 03:21, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No it is the truth. Our history has been recreated and you have been fooled. 2600:4040:5365:8E00:A522:4F56:641:FEA6 (talk) 14:04, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Terminology Minutae

Sorry about this one, but here goes.

The entry talks about the Photography and Film "Projects". Sidney Baldwin in Poverty and Politics: The Rise and Decline of the Farm Security Administration refers to them as "Sections" on p. 118. Does anyone know the proper name for these units/divisions? Although Baldwin's text is several decades old by now, he nonetheless used LOTS of primary sources (govt. documents, letters, etc.) - so he just might be using names lifted directly from legislation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.128.27.121 (talk) 18:19, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
