Pilot launch of historicity forum:

[gordy]

We're opening up a new forum for the discussion of historicity the caveat being that:

• The rules are being followed (naturally)
• Pointed out inaccuracies and errors are cited with references
• Corrective suggestions

Such discussions in the past are "lightning rods" and dissolve into nonsense, with the above basics we can have a healthy and productive discussion that will help us better not only our skills here at planetFigure but historicity as well. Be it correcting a kit or new releases from sculpters asking for that extra bit of knowledge to polish off their latest works.

Historicit-ians must also bear in mind not all of us share the same historical passion but more of an aloof [read: hobby] position as well

Miniature enthusiasts are not alone in other genres of modeling; calipeers and rivet-counters of airplane and tanks modelers share a niche within a niche - as well as just about any collective special interest (you should see a UNIX group meeting )

Other genres of modeling have similarly addressed the issue creating "Tweak Lists" (sample) I see no reason we couldn't also
