[edit] POV descriptions

The descriptions of the battles are directly taken from this external link. Aside from being copyrighted text, the phrasing used is from a Danish POV. It does not properly reference its data and does not provide information on what makes a battle an "easy Danish victory" or what makes a Danish retreat "masterly". Because of this, the text describing the battles should be removed or reworded into neutral and (ideally) referenced phrasing. Olessi 23:15, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Title

Any objections to renaming the page to First Schleswig War? That phrasing is used by more recently published texts than "First War of Schleswig". Olessi 19:41, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
