I just replaced Álvaro Obregón with Francisco I. Madero in the introductory paragraph. It was an obvious factual error and i assumed part of the error you mentioned.

Huge portion lost.
I edited part of the first paragraph, left the page, then came back and a huge portion is missing from it. It was much longer and contained pictures. I looked in the history and it said I was the only one to edit it. What happened?

Moved from article (user's editorial comment on line 7)
(the latter part of this sentence is commentary, and unsupported by evidence either economic or otherwise. Those who have been to the non-tourist portions of Mexico from the United States can very easily see a stark difference in quality of life for their 'peasants'. For being founded by an Objectivist, articles seem to contain quite the socalist tripe)

Lists to be added
Here's some suggestions for lists appropriate to be linked to this article:

List of artists and art works related to the Mexican Revolution

Diego Rivera, Jose Clemente Orozco, Frida Kahlo, just to name a few.

List of literature related to the Mexican Revolution

Works of Octavio Paz, obviously. John Reed. Reed's book Insurgent Mexico is the witness account in English of Villa's battles in Chihuahua and Durango. There's dozens, or maybe hundreds, of other English and Spanish books relating to the Revolution.

List of films related to the Mexican Revolution

This list could get very long. Vamanos con Pancho Villa, Viva Villa, Viva Zapata, for starters.

Ouch
Is so naive and idealized. It is unsupported by citations. I will try to help.

I agree with Graf wih all those topics but we should come up with an index: I. Causes: a). The Diaz Regime (cientificos, terratenientes). -The Diaz Regime in the North---) why Madero, Villa, Carranza, Obregon -The Diaz Regime in the South---) why Zapatista Movement (sequels) -The Diaz Regime and forgeing powers: US and Britain Mainly b). The 1910 Eleccions c) The Maderista Revolution.

II. Developments a. Madero in government an d his Porfirista Cabinet. -Discontent of Orozquistas y Zapatistas -Discontent of Porfiristas -Discontent with the US: Henry Lane Wilson, Huerta and Decena Tragica.

b. Huerta's Government -Zapata and Villa combat him.

c. Convencion -Mexico City is taken over by the troops. -Accords.

d. Constitutionalism -Obregon defeats Villa -Villa takes Columbus NM -Carranza enacts the 1917 constitution and lets the American troops in the country to pursue Villa. -Oregon rebels agaisnt Carranza. -Obregon Takes power.

III. Demise of the conflict -Sociological aspects of revolution: peasants woment, workers, railroads, even life in he camps. - Later bloody governmental elections and conflicts ended with the PRI -Legacies of the Revolution. Icluding cultural ones.
