Speaking as a relatively neutral observer who has not read this article in over a year, I have to express my shock as to what it has become. What was previously a fairly concise (if admittedly thin) article on the battle of Ligny has now somehow metastasized into an enormous, seemingly entirely copy-pasted lifting of the works of Siborne, with nary a paraphrase to help those who were not born in the 19th century along. The article's index of the battle's phases, by itself, spans more than an entire screen. I want to emphasize that I have no dog in this fight other than being a Napoleonic Wars enthusiast, but this article seems like it desperately needs not only pruning, but actual original content. Simply lifting an entire chapter from a book, slapping quotations around it and attributing it, and then calling it a day is not a conducive format for those who want to read a summary of the battle, which is the format for most, if not all, other Wikipedia battle and campaign articles. </p><p>I would humbly suggest to the resident editors that the article be remodeled so that, while keeping the main action covered and well-sourced, it informs the reader in a timely and understandable manner of what occurred during the battle. <a href="/w/index.php?title=User:Brianify&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User:Brianify (page does not exist)">Brianify</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Brianify" title="User talk:Brianify">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Battle_of_Ligny#c-Brianify-2017-05-31T19:21:00.000Z-Article_Size_and_Style" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">19:21, 31 May 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Brianify-2017-05-31T19:21:00.000Z-Article_Size_and_Style"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Brianify-2017-05-31T19:21:00.000Z-Article_Size_and_Style"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-79.49.59.207-2017-09-08T23:08:00.000Z-Brianify-2017-05-31T19:21:00.000Z"></span>Yes, it's dreadful. Awful. A massive, misguided waste. The complete lack of editorial judgement has produced an article that's enormous but largely uninformative and unfit as a reference work.

He then decided that the only reliable source was Siborne. In pert. I did not argue about the change at the time because I'd been involved in too many hot topics. As it is at the moment, I agree that the article is almost unreadable because of the archaic English style and the over-reliance on one historian. Quoting large parts of Siborne's work is also problematic. If you go back far enough, you can find the article before it was "improved." That does not mean that it is perfect either because it isn't but it is better referenced, the language more concise.

The first edit that you listed was made after an editor reverted one of my edits, calling it "original research" and telling me to justify it on the talk page. I did so, and he did not respond, so I reverted his revert. Makes more sense now, doesn't it? As for the second one, I am of the opinion that whenever one undoes or dramatically alters another's work, a clear explanation is needed. This includes reverts and also image changes. I reverted that edit because an editor changed the lead image without explaining why. That is all the explanation I need.</dd> <dd>Now, onto the infobox images. I really don't care what people do on German Wikipedia. People who come to this page are more likely to have read other articles on English Wikipedia than they are anything on German Wikipedia. Like I said, I've read and edited many articles about battles, and never once have I seen images of commanders in the infobox. It seems to me generally best to have consistency between articles in format if they are covering the same type of topic. It makes browsing easier and simpler.

Here's what I said:</dd> <dd>"I made 3 more edits in which I removed periods from captions. Generally they aren't included unless they follow complete sentences. I noted this in the first of the three edits that I made. I also removed an image of the Battle of Waterloo from the "Aftermath" section. It's normal to include some information about what happened after a battle, but a picture of a battle that isn't the same as the one covered in the article is overdoing it, in my opinion. In my edit summary, I noted that the picture was not "directly relevant" to the article. I made a couple more edits which, regrettably, did not have edit summaries. Usually notes in the article which are meant to expand upon something are separated from footnotes. In this case they weren't, so I split them myself into separate sections. [The two things are of an entirely different nature. The "Notes" expand on the main text or offer background. The footnotes are simply sources. It make sense to have them separate.] I also made an edit to the lead in which I attempted to explain how the battle constituted a tactical French victory. All that was explained is how it was a strategic defeat. There was also a "However" thrown into the lead which should not have been there because both points that were made were in support of it being a strategic defeat for the French. There was no contradiction, and the presence of the word was quite confusing for me at first. In my edit summary, I said: "Previously the lead did not explain how the battle consistuted [sic] a tactical French victory."" <a href="/wiki/User:Display_name_99" title="User:Display name 99">Display name 99</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Display_name_99" title="User talk:Display name 99">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Battle_of_Ligny#c-Display_name_99-2017-06-21T18:29:00.000Z-PBS-2017-06-21T18:10:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">18:29, 21 June 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Display_name_99-2017-06-21T18:29:00.000Z-PBS-2017-06-21T18:10:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Display_name_99-2017-06-21T18:29:00.000Z-PBS-2017-06-21T18:10:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-PBS-2017-06-22T10:05:00.000Z-Display_name_99-2017-06-21T18:29:00.000Z"></span>I think it better we discuss each separately otherwise things get confusing. So far we have discussed to issues and the first seems to be a difference in style (so there is no consensus for that change) while with the second change the guidance in <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOTBROKEN" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOTBROKEN">WP:NOTBROKEN</a> is against the edit. So do you accept that there is no consensus for these two changes?</dd> <dd>In the next edit you state "More fighting in Ligny: No periods in captions unless they follow complete sentences." I presume that you mean a <a href="/wiki/Full_stop" title="Full stop">full stop</a> when you write period. What is the guidance that you are using to support this change? I ask because the examples in <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Help:Files&oldid=766137270">Help:Files</a>, do not support you. There are two good reasons for finishing the text in such statements with a full stop. (1) it helps to make it easy to see where a link to an artists name ends and the enclosing square brackets end: ie with a full stop <code>]].]]</code> is easier to read than <code>]]]]</code> and so is less likely to cause an error. (2) ending the statement with a full stop allows for a reference to be placed after it. This looks better than abutting the reference up against an alpha numeric character. -- <a href="/wiki/User:PBS" title="User:PBS">PBS</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:PBS" title="User talk:PBS">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Battle_of_Ligny#c-PBS-2017-06-22T10:05:00.000Z-Display_name_99-2017-06-21T18:29:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">10:05, 22 June 2017 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-PBS-2017-06-22T10:05:00.000Z-Display_name_99-2017-06-21T18:29:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-PBS-2017-06-22T10:05:00.000Z-Display_name_99-2017-06-21T18:29:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Display_name_99-2017-06-22T16:47:00.000Z-PBS-2017-06-22T10:05:00.000Z"></span>I accept that there is no consensus for the infobox edit and that policy is against the other edits mentioned thus far.

In fact I think the guidance needs changing to include the possibility of elliptical sentences (or more precisely in grammar: elliptical main clauses). What I mean by this is that because the text in the caption explains the image we write "Gneisenau at the Battle of Ligny, by Richard Knötel.", rather than stating the obvious "This is a painting of Gneisenau at the Battle of Ligny, by Richard Knötel." The "This is a painting of" is not usually stated, but is implied in captions. </p><p>However I do not accept <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Ligny&diff=next&oldid=786369287">this edit</a> that the removes of the full stop after the author name of a quote is covered by the same thing guideline.

It looks far better to place the citations after a full stop than next to the last character in a surname. </p><p>I have no objections to you change to the lead, what you are removing is a POV inserted by another user, and as it is in my opinion overeggs the pudding. </p><p>I do object to your removal of the Waterloo picture, the major aftermath was the Battle of Waterloo one of the most decisive battles in history, so this image is on topic. Yes it is eye candy (as are all these types of pictures), but it is not as if there are many images in this article given its size—There are 18 images in the Battle of Ligny (145K), and 41 in the Battle of Waterloo article (157K) — so I think it should stay.
