I should put an email addy for people who can't work it out. Some US students would be baffled I think. Plus there are places that use Hyperwar exclusively for their English language sources on WWII.
Good point. It might also be possible to include a link to somewhere (wiki article?) that gave the answer to a question in such a way that a bot still couldn't do anything.
I've always wanted to start a WWIIWiki.
There must already be a huge one - you could become a Wiki editor, and add to it, maybe adding some links to Hyperwar...

Wikipedia has a WWII section, but I don't have the spare time to spare for that. I do keep an eye on the Pearl Harbor page, which is moderated.

There were editing wars over that page until they moderated it. As many as fifty different versions a day.
