American Revolutionary War (1775-1783)

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Also known as the American War of Independence or the Revolutionary War, this conflict took place between 1775 and 1783. The central issue was the independence of thirteen British colonies in North America, and the ultimate outcome was the creation of the United States of America.

NOTES
The rule- "apply to content where content contains revolutionary war" will likely need to be altered. Right now it reaches 9 results, all of which are either American or Dec Arts and appear suitable. The risk is that it will link to other content that mentions revolutionary wars in other locations and this will need to be limited. I will experiment with the use of tags as a way to limit the results to American and Dec Arts objects.

apply to content where tag_name contains American Art or where tag_name contains Decorative Arts and Design
apply to content where content contains Revolutionary War

set operator as or
apply to content where content contains revolutionary war and where tag_name contains American Art
apply to content where content contains revolutionary war and where tag_name contains Decorative Arts Design

Can't tell if these variations on the rule are funcitoning properly because the same nine results keep showing on rules tester. I will leave the rule as open-ended right now and can add the departments later when problems arise.

I added objects to the rule and limited them to 1700-1790 which results in 13 connected works. Although this exceeds the years of the actual Revolutionary War, it seems common to discuss the Revolutionary War as the culmination of the colonial period and most likely impacted the artists and subjects signaled in the objects.

Adding "draft" tag back to note, Dec 19, 2016, as part of the revised harvest/route procedure. This note will be pulled into GDrive and manually moved to Queta's folders for final review. Update- January 18, 2017- Adding #routed tag so that I can easily keep track of this note in Evernote to confirm that it is eventually pushed into GDrive. As of January 18, 2017 the content is in Brain but not in GDrive so I am unable to finish revisions and mark it complete in Evernote or move the GDoc to Queta's folder.
Changed title of note but otherwise all changes shown in GDrive as of 1/24/2017. Added completed tag and moved GDoc to Queta folder.
