Let's raise this article to featured article status

We're more than halfway there, I think. We have excellent photos, a large and expanding body of references for our claims, and quite a lot of crisp prose. I propose that we work to bring this to FA status in time for the 97th anniversary of the Ludlow Massacre, which is three and a half months away. I can't do it on my own, but if we had even a small group of contributors actively working on this article, it would not be at all unrealistic. Let's do it! --Ori.livneh (talk) 04:17, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Number of victims

At one point in the article, it indicates that two women, eleven children-by-asphyxiation, three union leaders, two strikers, one child-by-gunfire, one passerby, and one guardsman were killed. that adds up to 21; take out the guardsman (since he wasn't a victim) and it's 20; I can't come up with the 19 indicated repeatedly. Later on in the article, it's stated that "three company guards and one militiaman were killed in the day's fighting.," but these guys aren't listed in the opening paragraph. What gives?
