Talk:French Wars

I think Frances involvement in WWI and WWII should be mentioned and how they were not exactly great warriors in these wars should be mentioned. Conservative 00:18, 21 April 2007 (EDT)conservative

Just a wild guess: You're not of French lineage? Rob Pommer_talk 00:38, 21 April 2007 (EDT)

I said I would not give any clues regarding my identity. Regardless, I do think that WWI and WWII were big wars and French involvement and what happened in regards to their involvement should be mentioned. Conservative 00:39, 21 April 2007 (EDT)conservative

I don't actually care WHO you are, I just made a rhetorical comment because someone of French lineage would find such an article highly offensive. And yes, it slab quotes a ton of material from wikipedia. Rob Pommer_talk 00:50, 21 April 2007 (EDT)

I don't know what to do about the "slab quotes". I don't know what you mean by "slab quotes". If it quotes too closely from Wikipedia tell Aschlafly I guess. Conservative 00:54, 21 April 2007 (EDT)conservative

In fact, Conservative, the French acquitted themselves extremely well in WWI. There seems to be a recent myth that the French have always been unsuccessful as warriors. I would have thought that anyone with even a minimal knowledge of history would know that that was not true. --Horace 00:57, 21 April 2007 (EDT)

This is how I check for "Slab quotes": I highlight a section of text and right click, I pick the option to search Google from what I have just highlighted, if the text appears verbatim anywhere , but especially from Wikipedia, I consider it as "slab quote". Rob Pommer_talk 01:02, 21 April 2007 (EDT)
