I was talking about Petraeus was remembered as "always going for it in sports, academics, leadership, and even his social life."--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:52, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Education and academia
1970s
1980s
  • You start using YYYY-YY format to describe time periods. If you are talking about a school year or a basketball season that seems natural. It seems like you should use prose to say something like 1983 to 1985 or use an – to say the 1983–85 time period. I prefer the former, but would accept the latter.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 22:46, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Additional recognition of note

This article is a very solid B-Class article. There is lots more to do. I am failing this at the current time. This is a free WP:PR for someone who really wants to make this a WP:GA.
