[edit] Horrible Description

The Description of this Battle is very poorly done, and to confusing to follow. Other battles and campaigning need not be mentioned when talking about the Battle of Eddington itself. You digress way off topic and mention things that should be talked about in "Events before the Battle"

[edit] Copyvio?

This edit [1] constitutes almost the entire article and has references to publications that the editor didn't even bother to add. I'm guessing it's copied from somewhere else. Without the references and source of this huge edit, I'm afraid it should be removed. --Ronz 23:59, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Perhaps, but I am not convinced enough that it is a copyvio. Anons also can greatly expand an article. Garion96 (talk) 14:48, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
