Battle Space[edit]

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]

The article's main shortcoming (as of October 2022) is its lack of context. It is written like doctrine, with no acknowledgment that the concept has a history or any cultural or political context. The fact is, there is no such thing as a battlespace except in the context of military training, analysis, or philosophizing. In other words, it is an abstraction. Its meaning is even more dependent on context than most things are. -- ℜob C. alias ALAROB 16:10, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I could easily argue that "Space" in the context of battlespace includes the concept of space-time (e.g. time in context of battles). Time is of significant essence in any battle. Intro needs a little work on definition if you agree. --2600:6C48:7006:200:5C10:C716:750B:C3B2 (talk) 01:01, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Context[edit]

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 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.27.1.18 (talk) 17:16, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Intelligence Preparation of the Battlefield[edit]

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]
