Great Retreat has had a peer review by Wikipedia editors which is now archived. It may contain ideas you can use to improve this article.

[edit] Stuff To Do:

Here is a list of stuff we need to do to improve the article to FA status(for anyone who is reading);

Add little sub headings, like Battle of the Marne, Le Cateau etc etc...

Expand most of the article to lengthen it out.

Get stats, numbers of dead etc.

Is there any way we can brighten up the pic of british dead?

I know for a fact people got medals for their actions during this stage in the war, we should put something on that.

We should write about the previous & next stages of the war (I think it was battles of the frontiers before the Great Retreat & after it I think it was the race to the sea?)

Basically writing about anything, even Maubeuge.

Any questions or suggestions contact me or R.D.H. (Ghost In The Machine).
