detailed chronology now that the legalities are covered this is massive material it tends to overwhelm the article which is now bloated to three times the recommended size of a wikipedia article i think we need to summarize here and factor out to separate articles maybe one for each year while clearly well researched the material is quite pov in the selection of what it covers i'm firmly on the side of the republic one of the first things i ever learned to say in spanish was sue o y una ametralladero y franco se va paseo but this wikipedia articles are not the place for partisan polemic a chronology this detailed should also include the anti catholic atrocities by anarchists and other supporters of the republic this doesn't the material is written in indifferent english right now i'm engaged in a copy edit which is being made difficult by the size of this article and the current miserable state of the servers i do not think it is appropriate in wikipedia to repeatedly refer to the nationalists as the fascists would i call them that in my own writing outside wikipedia sure and someone on the right would probably use different words than republicans legitimate government etc in his her own writing here i'd favor nationalists or insurgents almost everywhere that the article currently says fascists does anyone want to present an argument to the contrary anyway i'm trying to clean this all up suggestions are welcome so is help i'm not sure how much time i'll have for this it's not my main focus within wikipedia and i suspect that for entirely good reasons i may soon have a lot less time for wikipedia than i've lately had talk jan utc
