Revision as of 21:14, 12 July 2006 by Chaser (talk | contribs) (→Votes for closure: rm previous; any point in closing Hamdan?)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)The United States Supreme Court Case Article Improvement Project Project Collaboration Article is an article chosen by members of the Project who wish to participate. The object of the collaboration is to improve the article to the level of a featured article on the Misplaced Pages Main Page.
Notice: This case is listed on the "In the news" section on the front page. As of now, it has very little information on the opinions, so whatever work can be done to add that in the next few days would be very helpful. Discussion so far is on the article's talk page.--Kchase02 T 21:58, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Voting
- Hamdi v. Rumsfeld
- could use lots of background information and is very timely.--Kchase02 T 05:13, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- Seconded. The opinions section could definitely be expanded, and I suspect there is a wealth of critical response that can be integrated as well. RidG Talk 05:35, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

- I basically made this a PCA by editorial fiat since it would get so much attention anyway. I think we could still do some work on it, but does anyone want to close it?--Kchase T 21:14, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
