Thanks for your suggestions...Your article is very well informed. However, there were eleven confederate states which seceded. You indicate it was seven. --BPDeutsch (talk) 18:03, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Ahh. I see where the confusion comes from. Seven is the correct number. Remember the article under discussion is the Origins of the American Civil War. See the Southern secession section of the article – Virginia, Arkansas, North Carolina, and Tennessee didn't secede until after the start of the Civil War on April 12, 1861 (Virginia on April 17, 1861, Arkansas May 6, 1861, North Carolina May 20, 1861, and Tennessee June 8, 1861). I'll see if I can clarify that in the article lede. Mojoworker (talk) 20:34, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
