Disputed

[edit]

This page violates the policies of Wikipedia. This article is not factual but a discussion and promotional material. This violates the neurtal point of view and no original research requirement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikiwoman22 (talkcontribs) 15:10, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed split

[edit]

The article as it stands at present is an overly long introduction to a list that dominates the page. The best way I think to remedy this is to restructure the present introduction to be the prose-based article about the topic of alternate histories that diverge at the American Civil War, with the list of examples spun off as a separate list article that can have better formatting and clearer inclusion criteria. Thryduulf (talk) 07:11, 28 March 2017 (UTC) Alternatively set a sub \section of "Fictional examples and central themes" and place most of the descriptive content in that.

Hey, guest here having watched Wikipedia I have added some new Civil War alternate history novels such as Shattered Nation trilogy, Billy Bennett's Civil War alternate history novels, Stonewall Goes West/Mother Earth, Bloody Ground, Southern Cross: Anne Coeptis , Confederate Star Rising, Elseworlds: Superman: A House Divided, What If: Captain America Vol 1 1, If the South Had Been Allowed to Go and Hallie Marshall: A True Daughter of the South (both of which are the earliest Civil War alternate histories) at this point with the Civil War alternate histories getting bigger I agree that we should create an article off this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:E000:A451:8F00:9AA:EAF1:5D73:69EE (talk) 18:17, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Do we really need both this page and List of alternate histories diverging at the American Civil War? It seems like they'd both be largely the same, so I suggest that one be merged into this. --Qualiesin (talk) 23:59, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is not alternate history

[edit]

"Hallie Marshall: A True Daughter of the South (1900) by Frank Williams" is lost cause propaganda peddled as alternate history, and shouldn't be promoted by wikipedia. 46.97.170.32 (talk) 09:22, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
