Review section
As noted by, this older (2006 promotion) featured article needs a bit of work to get back to up standard. There's a bit of uncited text, and I'm concerned that a few spots may represent original research, such as "The choice of de Castries as the local commander at Điện Biên Phủ was, in retrospect, a bad one." being cited to a contemporary newspaper account. This should be fixable, but it will need some work. Hog Farm Talk 18:55, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Move to FARC No progress on the article. Reference section needs to be reevaluated as there are some refs that are not used in the article yet, while others are creating harv errors. Z1720 (talk) 00:49, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Move to FARC; issues remain unaddressed. Hog Farm Talk 20:59, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
