Talk:Dương Văn Minh

Untitled

"were shot by Minh's bodyguard while trying to escape"

to "were murdered (by Minh's forces) after surrendering". Nhu was shot down like a dog while being transported in an APC. Dunno about Diem but I expect the execution was similarly cold-blooded.

Terms of office

The succession box for Presidents of South Vietnam is way off. I'm fixing it.--Eric 02:57, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Can someone more accomplished than me please fix up the infobox. Cripipper 15:23, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

I've just had a go, but it only seems to accept one term of office; maybe it's a metaphor for something... Richard 62.6.139.11 14:55, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

1964 coup

This article is contradictory with the article about Nguyen Khanh. The latter states that the coup was in August, not in Jannuary. 193.171.121.30 17:44, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Duong Van Minh

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Duong Van Minh's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "encyc":

• From Ton That Dinh: Tucker, pp. 288–289.
• From Ngo Dinh Nhu: Tucker, pp. 291–298.
• From Pham Ngoc Thao: Tucker, Spencer C. (2000). Encyclopedia of the Vietnam War. ABC-CLIO. p. 325. ISBN 1-57607-040-0. {{cite book}}: Check |isbn= value: checksum (help)
• From Nguyen Van Nhung: Tucker, p. 227.
• From Le Quang Tung: Tucker, Spencer C. (2000). Encyclopedia of the Vietnam War. ABC-CLIO. p. 227. ISBN 1-57607-040-0. {{cite book}}: Check |isbn= value: checksum (help)

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 07:03, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

Karnow quote

It simply says 'Everybody and his brother had a plot' which is a clear figure of speech, as not all of the officers were involved, nor would they all have a brother necessarily. It is OR and flagrant falsification to say that Karnow means Nhut. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bumbubookworm (talk • contribs) 11:30, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
