Expand the Sheffield history board, with a general sub-board? Or one seperate board?

Obviously not a popular topic...

It could be British & World history, a sub-board of Sheffield history even?

People with knowledge of this country's history (and World history) could expand on the topics (20thC war / Tudors etc)

Still no interest then?

Apart from yourself, no, it seems?

This is my site anyway, for those that are interested in history;- http://englistory.darkbb.com

I think you will find there is already a website just for Sheffield History...

www.sheffieldhistory.co.uk

I'd like to contribute to a general/ world history sub-forum. I have a huge passion for history and archaeology and would like to share ideas with like minded people.

Nice one, Cavegirl, the more who voice their passion for this topic, the better chance we have here, perhaps to discuss general topics such as the Anglo-Saxon gold hoard (recently) or historical topics as depicted in films?

Ooh, I'm crazy about this idea now it sounds right up my street :love:

Moderators- please, please, please... :thumbsup:

Cavegirl, in the meantime, why not visit either Andy's above suggestion (Sheffieldhistory) or my own forum (linked above)?

Hi Huscarl, I joined your site and made my first newbie post, rather imaginatively, under the name Cavegirl :hihi:

I haven't explored it fully yet, but it looks like a great site with some interesting topics being explored.

Thanks for the reminder to the links.

Hi Cavegirl, you're welcome! Glad to have you aboard!

Andy, I'm a member there, and it's a very good site, just a slow turnover.

The fact that this thread has over 1,800 views suggests that general history can co-exist here on SF, as well as on Sheffieldhistory?

Do the mods reply to these suggestion boards?

Very nice sites, but do not garner a wider audience. SF does, so it would appear a dedicated section on SF would gather far more people. Just a thought.

but do not garner a wider audience.

What? I have just visited them and they do have a wide general appeal?

Doubt away, this board does little history in comparison.
