Talk:Artillery of the Nguyễn lords

What is it about?
Is this about the artillery equipment (guns, cannons, etc.) or the artillery men/corps? If the former, why not describe the equipment in some (or any) detail? Badagnani (talk) 23:57, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

More work needed
I did a drive-by editing on some of the wording, grammar Nazi that I am. The article still needs reorganization.

IMO, there needs to be more work on references. Some authorities are named, but none of their works are identified. Is all of this from one source?

Btw, is the comment on who eats what supposed to be cute? It isn't.

"Did You Know" What?
I just read the yellow box above, after I finished my previous post.

As I understand the study of history, it is about causes and effects, not the amassing of factoids, so I meet all instances of trivialization with distaste. I'm studying history to understand human beings, not to win money on Jeopardy.

That being said, this is a particularly egregious example, because the article states that the "knowledge" selected for spotlighting is actually controversial. 'Did You Know?' Did I know? Hell, does anybody know?
