Talk:They Marched into Sunlight

The i in into ought to be capitalized, this page needs to be removed, but a redirect left from the lowercase i page. Wsacul 14:21, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Are there any existing wikipedia pages that are about the specific events and characters in this book? Or even external links with information about the protest or battle? Linking to obvious pages like 'Vietnam' or 'Washington' is nice but it would be much more useful to have crosslinking from a page like 'Long Nguyen Secret Zone' (I didn't find that one).

I only have the audiobook currently so it is difficult for me to look up things, but I'll obtain the print version eventually and help out more. Wsacul 17:25, 1 April 2007 (UTC)


This article needs to assert the notability of this book and provide references to back it up. Hatch68 18:37, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

  • such as? I saw the title on David Maraniss' article and thought the book could use it's own article. Let me know what you exactly mean by "notability" as well as an example of how to reference its "notability" and I'll see what I can dig up. Greyman 18:45, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
The notability guidelines for books can be found at Wikipedia:Notability (books). Keep in mind that I'm not saying the book isn't notable, but the introductory paragraph of any Wikipedia article needs to establish and ASSERT the notability of the subject of the article. Was it a best seller? If it was say that in the first sentence. See the notes on the Lead Section in this article; Wikipedia:Guide to writing better articles. Hatch68 19:01, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
