[edit] Merger proposal

I have proposed that some of the content in Rangers Standing Orders be merged here. My reasons:

  1. Rangers Standing Orders contains the same 28 rules, but in an expanded form, apparently taken from Rogers's own journals (citations are inadequate)
  2. I question the accuracy of the first list in that article it's from a novel published in 1937
  3. That article already has cleanup issues, and it makes more sense to merge the valuable content here.

As part of cleanup I changed the order so the real version comes first and then the fictional (which makes more sense and eliminates some internal conflict). However, I am now merging and redirecting that here. RJFJR (talk) 16:37, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 29 rules???
