Talk:Additional amendments to the United States Constitution
Why isn't the entirety of the Constitution still in one document? Whose idiot idea was it to split them into three different pages?
- Shouldn't there at least be a "see also" at the bottom of each, referring to the other two? 184.108.40.206 14:24, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
Seriously somebody but these back in one document. This is completley inane.
I'm not aware of why it is separate, but there is probably a good reason. We should try to find who made those decisions. Anyway, I agree that it would be good to have it all on a single page, using either transclusion or WS:LST. John Vandenberg (chat) 01:42, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

These don't seem to link to a source. While this page makes a nice summary of each amendment's effective additions, the original sources of each amendment would be documents like File:11th Amendment Pg1of1 AC.jpg and File:12th Amendment Pg1of1 AC.jpg and would be individually transcribed. djr13 (talk) 10:40, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
