i have added a couple of citations regarding the numbers killed as the original (30000) was exaggerated and obviously from a biased source. Many of the other facts are also unsupported. I will try and add some more balanced input, especially analysis in the last section of the article. Suicup 10:00, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Mate, your claims of thirty thousand are unsourced and unreliable. My information is the generally accepted number. I gave 2 sources for my figures, you gave NONE. I wonder who to believe?Suicup 16:17, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

"the April Uprising, which became the major event in later Bulgarian natiaonlist mythology, was a complete failure as a revolution" It was never intended to lead directly to a liberation, this was completely unfeasible. The aim was to draw the attention of European society, in which it succeeded.
