Roster Projects for the 15th Infantry

Roster Data
  • Use the roster on the Wisconsin Historical Society/WVM Website
  • Rosters on the Wiki are called from a template to save parser data - the 15th's roster templates can be found here:
  • For any soldier who is promoted or transferred to another place WITHIN THE UNIT:
    • Include the lowest or previous position in the appropriate place in the unit, with the entire entry in italics
    • Repeat for any middle stages
    • Include the actual link to the profile on the highest position/last place within the unit, NO ITALICS
    • For non-commissioned officers, always include their names on the list of privates in this fashion
    • No non-commissioned officers include the dates of their promotions, these will always be ? for the date (most officers should have specific dates)
  • For any soldier who is promoted or transferred to another place OUTSIDE OF THE UNIT:
    • Include the lowest or previous position in the appropriate place in the unit, with the entire entry in italics
    • Repeat for any middle stages
    • Wherever the highest or last position is, include the actual link to the profile IN ITALICS
  • Include the full name of the soldier in Firtname Lastname format - all links should appear red when the page is saved
  • If the links appear blue, there is already a soldier with that name in the wiki and an advanced step must be taken to separate the names before profiles can be made
Troop Profiles

Each section of the roster includes specific information for the soldier, as well as categories of that information into which the profile can be sorted. The sorting feature is key, as several pages rely on the numbers of pages sorted into these categories for statistical research. The table below lists the type of information found in each section, and how to format the categories below that section.

A fully functioning unit profile example can be found here for Balthazar Baumgartner - feel free to copy and paste the code directly while making sure only to include the information left on the new page specific to the next soldier

Profile Feature Categories
  • INTRO: Includes the soldiers' full name in BOLD font, the highest rank they achieved, and the last unit they served in
    • Regiment name is Bold and Linked directly the unit, company follows in bold
    • This information tells us the soldier is a Union soldier, a Wisconsin soldier, and a soldier who served in the 15th Infantry
  • Category:Union Soldiers|LASTNAME
  • Category:Wisconsin Soldiers|LASTNAME
  • Category:15th Wisconsin Infantry|LASTNAME
  • Category:OTHER UNIT|LASTNAME

Where capital letters are replaced by the soldier's last name and any units served in besides the 15th

  • ANTEBELLUM: Any information on where the soldier lived beforehand, what they did, how old when enlisting, etc - if within the US, add this in City, County, State format, linked
    • This tells us the residence information of the soldier - this is the only information in this section that requires a category
  • Category:Soldiers from COUNTY, Wisconsin|LASTNAME
  • Category:Soldiers from CITY/TOWN OF, COUNTY, Wisconsin|LASTNAME

Where capital letters are replaced with the soldier's city and county, if known. Can also use when no information is available:

  • Category:Soldiers from an Unknown City, Wisconsin|LASTNAME
  • Category:Soldiers from an Unknown City, Unknown County, Wisconsin|LASTNAME
  • WAR CAREER: This is the biggest section and includes all events typically found in the "Remarks" section
    • Dates for events listed in the actual section (not in categories) are listed as Month Day, Year to link to specific pages for those days
    • Always include Enlisted and Mustered In categories for Wisconsin and Union, replacing the dates in either YYYY.MM.DD format or ? if unknown. Include language for either "Mustered into federal service (unit already in service)
    • Each event comes in groups of 3 for categories - both generally, and then on a specific date and location when known, replacing unknowns with ?
    • Events with own categories include: wounded, mortally wounded, killed, killed by disease, prisoner, deserted, missing, and promotions
      • Transfers do not have categories, as this information is already included in other sections
      • Soldiers listed as "mortally wounded" include categories both for mortally wounded and killed, to be sorted into both lists
      • Some special events are rare and may have their own categories, such as Medal of Honor recipient
      • If one event happens twice, such as a wound, do not include the general categories a second time, only the 3 categories with day and place
      • Promotions are only needed with state and Union categories and date if known
        • Officers are Captains, 1st Lieutenants, and 2nd Lieutenants
        • Non-commissioned Officers are Corporals and Sergeants
        • There may also be wagoners or musicians that have their own categories as well
        • Privates are left with just "enlisted"

  • Category:Union Enlisted|LASTNAME

NOTES: Always include the <references/> tag here - cite any information inline in any other section with <ref>Cited information between the ref tags</ref> tags and they will automatically appear here on the live page Example
  • SOURCES
    • Always include the {{Template:WIRosterSource}} (Pages ?, ?) tag, here, replacing the ?s with the page number you are on, including any other pages that reference this specific individual (in the cases of promotion, transfer, etc.)
    • If the soldier was killed, they should appear in another source on the Wiki that uses the {{Template:WILossesSource}} (Page ?) tag - more research will be needed for specific page numbers they are found on
    • Page numbers are always 4 digits, add 0s to the front when needed
  • Category:Source: WLCW 0???|LASTNAME
  • Category:Source: RWV (1) 0???|LASTNAME
