We agreed that you will find a better definition on the use of force and I will find some examples of how it is used in other places in the world. Go team! Slarrab (talk) 18:08, 19 September 2014 (UTC)

I fixed your addition to the use of force page so that it actually showed up on the article. Sounds like a good definition! Slarrab (talk) 17:35, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

Add your article to your user page

Be sure to add the article you're working on to your user page. You might want to organize your user page by adding a new section entitled, "Pages I'm editing" and then putting the internal link to the Wikipedia page in that section. To do so, go to your user page, click the "New Section" tab at the top right of the page. In the body of the section, click the icon to insert a link and just type the name of the page you're working on. After a second or two, you should see a message that says "Page Exists" which means that it found the Wikipedia page and will create an internal link to it rather than an external link like the one you currently have on there.
