I can't edit references so I won't be changing it but item 8 "Army Knowledge Online FAQ" points to a link that no longer exists. Someone who can edit references probably should remove it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Albymangels (talk • contribs) 00:37, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

fuck this shit i hate that is so hard to contact them i cant even find the phone number

Who's the asshole that put this up? OPSEC???? Also I see this only references officers. I know SOME NCOS did the actual work for AKO. This should be deleted for total bullshit. 195.226.227.100 (talk)Soldier in Iraq —Preceding comment was added at 19:12, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Soldier/soldier[edit]

There have been a few reverts over soldiers/Soldiers. When referring to Soldiers in context of the US Army, it is normally capitalized.

Source Needed[edit]

The claim of "worlds largest corporate intranet" should be quantized, dated, and referenced as the NMCI article makes a similar claim.

As of March 2006, NMCI included some 290,000 computers, making it the largest internal computer network in the world[1]

POV/Reference Needed/Style Editing[edit]

The bit at the end of the first paragraph seems highly POV - if not, please source. I use AKO daily, and I am not aware of any recent 'crashes' or unscheduled downtime, nor am I aware of any Soldiers that see it as a hassle - let alone one of their greatest hassles. On the other hand, anecdotally, the SSO option that AKO has provided for many other Army websites (with and without the CAC) has been a clear benefit to those Soldiers who had literally dozens of logins to remember - often with different and sometimes mutually exclusive password complexity rules.

Additionally, the entire article could use a pass with someone with a gift for editing with an eye toward clarity and syntactical correctness. -- Sapph42 (talk) 19:55, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

LinkedIn Links[edit]

What's the policy on linkifying someone's name to a social networking profile? Doesn't seem particularly encyclopedic to me - more like personal promotion. If the person is notable enough to warrant a wiki article, create one. Otherwise, no link is necessary. Thoughts? Sapph (talk) 22:01, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Further, the whole paragraph on the History and Development seems to unnecessarily focus on people who may or may not have been involved - including inconsistencies in title (Mr. Bailey to Major Bailey). Adding references needed tag. Sapph (talk) 22:04, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Originally the site was created by about 6 military and a bunch of contractors. I know that one of them created the initial wiki. At that time, there were not a lot of rules. 2600:4040:20A1:DF00:D52D:B7E1:F9DE:42BD (talk) 17:43, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
