" Another large segment were French-speaking Creoles. " Sorry, but going by te roster for Co. B "Tiger Rifles", French names were not particularly noticable. It's probably a mistaken association for Coppens or 1st La Zouaves. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.22.202.22 (talk) 01:15, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
Book Author Copying his work wholesale into wikipedia?
editSurprised the monitoring bots or oversight hasn't caught this yet. This article is not only bizarrely long given the notability of the topic, but the fact that an author has copied so much out of his own book into this encyclopedia is ridiculous and incredibly narcissistic. Then again, he did write the wikipedia article on himself.68.34.210.83 (talk) 01:12, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
- The article as written appears to be a summary of a copyrighted work which excessively borrows from that work. It appears to violate fair use, despite the fact that it seems to be the author of the work that put the content in there.68.34.210.83 (talk) 01:29, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
- Look near the top of the talk page. There is an OTRS. Regards, Sun Creator(talk) 14:49, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
Comedy of typos
editI started typo checking but gave up. So many typos and mostly in the quoted text. Is it suppose to be with typos? Regards, SunCreator (talk) 17:37, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
- On reconsideration it appears to be a dialect. Regards, Sun Creator(talk) 14:52, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
Excessive bolding
editI am removing the excessive bolding in this article.
