Immediate Respone to what? USchick (talk) 00:10, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Huh? could you elaborate? what's bothering you about this article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vvarkey (talk • contribs) 06:51, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

At first glance, this article comes across as an immediate response to the 2008 South Ossetia War. Maybe because it's not written very well, or maybe because the title is confusing. After reading all the supporting documents you have linked here, Immediate Response turns out to be a separate military exercise, but you should't have to read all that to figure out what this is. There seem to be two different ideas here. 1-Immediate Response is an annual exercise, and 2-Immediate Response 2008. Right now the two things are being mixed together and perhaps they should be separated. What about all the other years of Immediate Response? Do they get an article for each year? That seems a bit too much.

Suggested titles: Immediate Response or Immediate Response Exercise (where 2008 can be one of many)

Also, I changed "our" alies to "its" allies. Although Wikipedia is written in English, it does't automatically make it an American encyclopedia. I am just as patriotic as you are, but the rest of the world already thinks that we think we run everything. Notice how many English speaking non-American editors you are interacting with. These are just friendly suggestions written in good faith. USchick (talk) 23:34, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

hi uschick, that's a direct quote from us european command, so it should be "our". don't worry, i'm not a patriotic american! i see what you're saying abt the title. i did'nt want to create a generic page for all Immediate Response's or create a page for every year. not enough info or interest. only reason i created this is it's interesting so close to the south ossetia war. i also created Caucasus Frontier 2008. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vvarkey (talk • contribs) 21:15, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
