This article seems completely disjointed to me

Russell has sure done a lot of work on the original, but even so it is still badly organized -- it reads the way novelists write novels if they want to use flashbacks, etc. This is not, in my opinion, how a history article should be written. Thanks, Russell, for trying to work on it! (I looked at it myself several months ago and threw up my hands in despair.) Hayford Peirce 23:01, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

I agree. I don't usually contribute to this kind of article, but I felt like I had to do something with the lede. I'm glad someone who knows what's going on is around to straighten things out. Thanks, Russell. -Joe Quick 23:43, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
Well, I have enough knowledge about this to put a story together, but for the facts and dates I have to rely on the earlier text. It's still a mess. Someone with expertise or a willingness to research this topic will have to take it from here. Russell D. Jones 00:11, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
