Why isn't this page part of the Battle of the Alamo article? Though both are very long that should not be a reason.--$1LENCE D00600D (talk) 23:50, 10 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Very long articles actually are a reason for splitting. Articles should be kept to a readable length. Redbeanpaste (talk) 05:57, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Duff reference

Reference 7 is to "Barr (1990), p. 56" but no such work is listed. Common problem with short citations. DuncanHill (talk) 22:23, 15 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Usually this happens when there were two references to the same source, and the first reference got deleted. GalantFan (talk) 17:22, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

fixed now DuncanHill - a whole heap of info was copied over from Battle of the Alamo here; the editor forgot to add in the book details at the bottom of the page to make a full citation. 27.32.234.233 (talk) 11:49, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
