STOP MESSING WITH MY ARTICLE,

Read that before you edit it! It may not cover the Six Days but it shows the numbers.

I will not stop messing with this article as the numbers are painfully incorrect. I edited them using Esposito's "West Point Military Atlas" and David Chandler's "Campaigns of Napoleon." The site you've linked to as a fine site, I've used it numerous times, but does not cover any battle of the Six Days' Campaign. Its numbers therefore cannot be considered for this article on the SIX DAYS CAMPAIGN, FEBRUARY 10-14. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gingerbreadman4290 (talk • contribs) 02:55, 10 August 2009‎ (UTC)

Six days?
Is there any explanation why it is referred to as the six days campaign but only battles on five days are included? --86.129.6.0 (talk) 05:41, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

French Tactical Victory
Since the coalition forces marched into Paris and disposed Napoleon, I think the battle result should read decisive coalition victory, no? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.69.74.184 (talk) 17:16, 1 December 2011 (UTC)


 * It was a brilliant series of tactical victories for Napoleon, but in response the Coalition decided that rather than defeat him in the field they would simply ignore him and march on Paris and so defeat him strategically. -- PBS (talk) 21:17, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I have yet again reverted the result from a simple "French Victory" because that is misleading. It was a brilliant tactical victory, but it was a strategic failure, as it did not prevent Blucher marching on Paris, but a strategic success in so much as it forced the Coalition to re-asses their stratagy. -- PBS (talk) 12:04, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
 * user:Lilyyuuta if you are going to revert an edit then engage in a discussion on the talk page (see WP:BRD). The effects of this campaign are different from the ones yous list in the history, as both outcomes happend simultaneously, not with one as a belated outcome of a war. — PBS (talk) 18:02, 13 October 2021 (UTC)

The Coalition allies "violated Swiss neutrality"?
Is this accurate to put it that way? The French had already invaded and occupied Switzerland in 1798, an actual violation of Swiss neutrality. The Allies liberated Switzerland from French influence, and after Napoleon's final defeat, the Congress of Vienna reaffirmed Swiss neutrality. So unless the cited source puts it as "violated Swiss neutrality", this would be better edited for better clarity.TheBaron0530 (talk) 19:10, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
