Battle Space

Battle Space has huge article potential as much as any other. It encompasses many theatres and should have it's own article. This is not a word definition, it is an article. List of marijuana slang terms 23:27, 4 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well currently it really isn't anything other than a dictionary definition. I'm happy to give you some time to improve the article, but at some point if it doesn't turn into a true Wikipedia article then I or someone else will send it to AfD. Good luck, Gwernol 02:52, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Save your threats for someone who will actually be intimidated by them. Go ahead and post it for a vote, I will enjoy it ! List of marijuana slang terms 10:47, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not threatening you, just trying to advise you about the need to expand the article. I'm glad to see you've started doing this, and the article is getting a lot better. Best, Gwernol 12:35, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Context

Where and when did this concept arise, and who subscribes to it? This article reads more like a US field manual than an encyclopedia article. —Michael Z. 2007-07-29 20:25 Z

Battlespace is NOT a unified military strategy. You only have to read the correct DoD/MoD definition, (which it appears somebody has bastardised) to understand that it is about situational awareness. Perhaps you should have all gone to staff college before bullshitting on military topics — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.96.249.106 (talk) 22:08, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The term "Battlespace" has been rescined from US Army use, although the USMC retains the term. The term now being used is "Operational Environment." D Vance

Intelligence Preparation of the Battlefield

IPB stands for Intelligence Preparation of the Battlefield, based on the US Army Field Manual, Federation of American Scientists, and Mark Lowenthal's book Intelligence: From Secrets to Policy. I see a sprinkling of this IPB as "battlespace" idea on the Internet, but the major US sources say "battlefield". Is "battlespace" a British term? --Pat 05:02, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
