I have slightly reworded the sentence and worked it into the rest of the text better. However, while finding sources that note the article was mistranslated, there appears to be very little information on why. Some sources hint at it being a deliberate act by the
Germans, however nothing I have thus

Your background is too thin; a solitary paragraph simply does not provide enough information to adequately contextualize the rest of the article. Furthermore this summary seems to provide more information as to the mentality behind the writing of the article—material that should be transposed to the

Hi, thanks for the review. I will make the recommended changes as soon as possible. However, I am currently suffering from the flu. Is it possible for the deadline to be extended by about a week, until I am feeling better and able to work on the recommendations and the article?

I have made several amendments to section to provide additional information on what the German reaction was like, however there appears to be very little in the way of detailed information out there on what the
Germans thought about the article other than what is already

It should also be expanded upon. State in more detail the level of damage the war effected on the French countryside, how
Clemenceau came to the conclusion that the reparations were necessary in kind of German

Avoid quotations when not appropriate. It is better to reword the sentence than to copy-paste and quote "Hundreds of French mines and factories" or "devastated France's most industrialized region" into the

Further comments will be brought forth if and when progress on those above is made. Unfortunate that this didn't see PR first, but pitifully that seems to happen more and more often nowadays.

I'm not certain this deserves its own section, as the text of the actual article is quite short. It may be better to remove this section and instead place the quotation in the lead.

This section provides a wealth of historical commentary, and should renamed as such—"Historical assessments" is the title used in Treaty of
Versailles.

Ok I've gone back through the article and changed some things here or there, and am overall happy with the results. You've passed! Congratulations.

The German and Allied section need similar expansion. What participation, if at all, did the count enjoy during the peacemaking process?

What the
British position on the issue was, what the American position on the issue was (how did they represent a "compromise" force?)

Reworded para. I think it is best to avoid discussion of this here, and leave that to the reparations article page.

What did
Woodrow Wilson mean by peace without victory? How did his later commentary move away from this position?

A new "War guilt" section could be crafted, briefly speaking of the effects of reparation on the German economy

Explain more detail Dulles' laments, perhaps in the context of the passing of WWII.

Explain in more detail the opinion of the general German public on the article

I think that is more of an issue for the main treaty article than here.

I have made numerous searches, but I been unable to locate anything.

Tomorrow, I promise. On a side note, it's looking good.
