Tweaking Archiving behaviour
I'm taking liberties again: I've changed the behaviour of the archiving bot so that a minimum of four threads will always be visible on this page; archiving will only happen to an old thread if there are more than that on the page. Given the level of activity on this talk page I don't see that as a problem, and may even elicit a few more responses. Singing choc ice (talk) 21:50, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
Opposing forces
I've started tweaking this section, beginning with a new paragraph on the composition of the German forces. Am I the only one dissatisfied with this section as it stood? Singing choc ice (talk) 22:04, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
The historical assessment of the Franco-Prussian war
I think that the historical significance of the Franco-Prussian war, its influence on the course of further history, is not sufficiently disclosed. The article lacks a historical assessment of this war. Meanwhile, in history, the topic of the consequences of this war was addressed very often. For example, in the conditions of peace in 1918, which ended world war 1, the President of USA directly assessed it. President Wilson directly evaluated it and argued that the actions were unfair on the part of Germany, which annexed Alsace-Lorraine. I think you need to add the following snippet to the article:
The historical assessment of the Franco-Prussian war can be seen in the Fourteen Points of President Wilson in 1918. Paragraph 8 stated: "All French territory should be freed and the invaded portions restored, and the wrong done to France by Prussia in 1871 in the matter of Alsace-Lorraine, which has unsettled the peace of the world for nearly fifty years, should be righted, in order that peace may once more be made secure in the interest of all".
