== Privacy and takedown == | |||
Treat these as urgent (same day when possible): | |||
* Social Security numbers or other modern identity numbers | |||
* Street addresses, phone numbers, or email for living people | |||
* Gallery uploads that expose private modern documents (medical, banking, full modern IDs) | |||
Remove the text or file, leave a short edit summary (“remove private contact”), and if the request came via [[Contact Us]], reply that it was handled. Contested historical facts still belong on Talk; private contact data does not. | |||

== Featured Main Page portraits == | |||
The Main Page thumbs rotate automatically each week. To change '''who''' can appear: | |||
# Open [[Featured pool]] (administrators only — edit-protected) | |||
# Add, remove, or reorder bullets (one soldier page title per line) | |||
# Save. Purge [[Main Page]] only if the old set still shows after a refresh | |||
You do not edit the Main Page itself to rotate features. Details and line formats are on [[Featured pool]]. | |||
