Concern over influence/focus on a single era/style of re-enactment

 * I would suggest this article be reduced in length significantly and much of the material presented be refactored into a discussion of authenticity in american civil war re-enactment. Terms like Farb (for example) are really only used in the US (really only within civil war era recreation) this is not a term used by british reenactors (i am not aware of it's use even by those who focus on the american civil war).  It would be impermanent of me to make such wholesale changes to this document and i might encourage the primary contributors to consider this (or perhaps provide some direction on this matter) as part of a revamp.Nathandbeal (talk) 20:55, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

FARB
"or the German farbische, manufactured, indicating obviously modern items" Never heard "farbisch" as a word in German. There is "fabriziert" from "Fabrik". Also coming from WW2 reenactment we always used to say "fucking ain't right, boy". Not sure if it's correct but I find it curious that it's not even mentioned here.
