Your edit in Early modern warfare
Wikipedia wants us to be bold in editing, as you were adding the line about the Ottoman army. However, I reverted it here, with the comment "Unsourced, not relevant, and probably not true". That may seem harsh, but this kind of thing is part of the guidelines that Wikpedia's editors follow, as detailed at BOLD, revert, discuss cycle. You were bold in making the edit, I reverted. The next step is not to put the same edit back, but to discuss, that is, make an entry on the talk page. I started this discussion, at Talk:Early modern warfare. --A D Monroe III (talk) 23:39, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
