This will be the third revision of this series. I have posted the entire series once; and I have reSteemed the first 11 in the series once as well; the reSteems coincided with the publication of new posts. It looks like it's been 3 months since the last post, and now is a good time for updating and consolidating.

But there were major problems in how I put together the posts, and major gaps in some of the concepts I presented.

I intend to rework the series, starting now, in order to make the learning experience more linear, and to include some concepts I had posted before in a different subject...especially in talking about critical thinking. One idea should flow to the next, ne?

The Introduction to the 3rd version

What do I mean by Information War? Why would a citizen want to know about it? Why would a citizen want to become an Information War Activist? How does one go about fighting Information War?

These are the questions that I intend to answer in this series. This post should serve as a introduction to the 3rd version, which is itself a draft for the 4th version of the series. So I'll re-write the existing posts, re-order them, re-wite some some posts that weren't part of the original series, write some new posts, and I'll try to keep this all in a logical order. I have some unfinished material, as well.

Below, I submit a draft outline of the upcoming revision. You may recognize some of the titles from earlier work, and I may split up or combine posts. I don't really expect this to be the final version as i work through the revisions and additional writing.

Part Eight - Indexes and Study Materials

OK, that's enough for now. I'll revisit this outline as I continue to write.

You'll notice I'm not linking to previous work on the series. Since I'm going to rewrite these, I'll exclude them as I build a new index. You can look to asksteem.com and search for author:stevescoins AND tags:informationwar to see previous work. You can also check out the #informationwar tag and the @informationwar account to see the contributions other Steemers have made in the War so far.
