Notable?

[edit]

Whilst I would not argue that this was not an important event in the Western Front, is it actually important enough to go in the infobox for the Western Front alongside Operation Market-Garden and D-Day? Skinny87 (talk) 11:34, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I believe it is. It helps break the illussion that the German Army was invinciable, and gives some much needed credit to the small countries who are, often in books, shown as pushovers for Germany. (Red4tribe (talk) 16:33, 21 April 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Batlle?

[edit]

A conflict where 6 people die is not a battle--12:03, 2 May 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.130.21.112 (talk)

The Dutch version of this page does mention the historical debate on whether this was a fullscale battalion-sized attack or merely just a scouting party. I believe the information in this article is incomplete on this matter and should be adjusted to prevent further misunderstandings. D(r)ead End (talk) 09:30, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There have been even wars without any casualties that have WP articles. See List of bloodless wars Someone Not Awful (talk) 21:11, 18 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
