[edit] Removal of text

Just for the record, I removed the line:

the Battles of Saratoga rank among the fifteen most decisive battles in world history.[citation needed]

This statement comes from the inclusion of the Battle of Saratoga in the book Fifteen Decisive Battles of the World: From Marathon to Waterloo by Edward S. Creasy. Therefore, it is really just the opinion of Creasy that the battle was one of the fifteen most decisive. Although there is no doubt it was an important battle, I didn't think the line seemed to belong in this article. --Nebular110 22:49, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
