I'll do it

Strategic Communication is probably what separates modern and post-modern strategic thinking, so certainly an article to be retained and developed--mrg3105 (comms) ♠♥♦♣ 07:59, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Commercial aspects of Strategic Communications

There are many multi-million dollar firms that provide "strategic communications" consulting to corporations, political campaigns and non profits. Hell, you can major in it at a top ranked journalism school! See: http://www.odwyerpr.com/pr_firm_rankings/washington.htm See:http://www.kucareerhawk.com/s/762/index.aspx?sid=762&gid=1&pgid=953

Strat Comm is best thought of as a sub-discipline of public relations and/or public affairs. In fact, it you were to judge importance strictly by the amount of money spent, I have now doubt that the military aspect of this practice would be DWARFED by the commercial aspects.

All that said, when you read this line:

"Focused United States Government efforts to understand and engage key audiences to create, strengthen, or preserve conditions favorable for the advancement of United States Government interests, policies, and objectives through the use of coordinated programs, plans, themes, messages, and products synchronized with the actions of all instruments of national power"

...you can pretty much just swap in Cause X for USG or national interests. I don't care if it's Exxon Mobil or the World Wildlife Foundation, they're all thinking like that when they build their communications strategies. It's a hell of a lot more like politics than "information warfare".

In sum, this article needs to be rewritten to reflect the true bulk of activity that occurs under this "title": political and commercial, not military. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.60.200.2 (talk) 02:01, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Howdy! Over the next few weeks, I will be editing this page to improve its overall quality and readability. My main focus will be on enhancing organization and correcting grammatical errors without adding or removing significant content. My aim is to make a positive contribution to the page while keeping its original meaning intact. Pinkdancer23 (talk) 14:41, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Organization and style edits

Howdy! I want to give a detailed description of my organizational edits because they were extensive and adjusted a handful of aspects of the article. I refrained from removing significant content but also intended to maintain clarity and specificity.

Headings: The heading titles now align with other A-class articles and are broader to cover all the information in their sections. I shortened 'application objectives' to just 'objectives' since the text covered more than applications and focused heavily on objectives. I grouped the definitions of strategic communication together for a more encyclopedic feel.
Text organization: I prioritized the defense and business applications sections because they highlight distinct strategic communication styles, placing them above the 'how-to' section to encourage readers first to explore the variety of definitions. I also combined military and business topics into the same sections for better readability, making their headings subheadings, as they expand on the main concept and didn't need separate headings.

Citation issues in the "government and defense application" section

There are a few issues in the government and defense application section that need attention. The Robert T. Hastings Jr. quotation lacks an inline citation and isn't listed in the sources. I wasn't able to find the full citation details to add it. Additionally, the paragraph starting with 'The approved NATO Policy…' contains confusing quotations and citations. The parentheses seem like they are meant to cite sources, but they don't match anything in the source list. I'm unsure how to properly fix this, but I'm hoping highlighting it here can help move things forward! WP:CITE Pinkdancer23 10:23, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
