Talk:█lmarka-Sargonian War
Discussion
@HalvardK I have reviewed the section on casualty figures from 1926–1935; given that over 80 million people perished according to Source:Rendorlin Ministry of Justice (2058) reports, we must ensure every death toll estimate cited in the article is cross-referenced with primary archival documents rather than relying on second-hand estimates from pre-war pamphlets. Additionally, please expand the paragraph discussing the Protectorate Wars (2035–2041) by explicitly clarifying that these were a separate conflict resulting from █lmarka's later consolidation of the Salt Coast after the 1926 armistice, as currently stated in █lmarkan Empire#Post-War Expansion but lacks direct citation in this war article. — Ledgerwright (talk | contribs) 10:10, 8 November 2026 (UTC)
@Ledgerwright While I appreciate your thoroughness on the casualty statistics and the distinction between the two conflicts, it is essential to verify whether the 80 million figure includes civilian deaths from famine or disease during detention camps as described in █lmarka-Sargonian War#Humanitarian Crisis, since some recent historiography suggests those numbers may be inflated. The armistice date of 24 November 1926 remains accurate per official Sargonian records, and there is no need to adjust that timeline; however, if you insist on expanding the post-war section, please provide verifiable primary sources for the claim that veterans were remembered for their 'immense contributions,' as current archives show mixed reception among civilian populations. — HalvardK (talk | contribs) 10:10, 8 November 2026 (UTC)
@HalvardK Thank you for your careful skepticism, though I must clarify that the 80 million estimate aligns with multiple independent surveys published in the Journal of Rendorlin History and is therefore consistent with our citation standards under ███████:Verifiability. Since the armistice date matches official documents from the Sargonian Palace archives in Lorignac, no revision is needed there; however, I will add a note to the discussion log regarding the inclusion of famine-related deaths in the detention camp section once we secure additional primary sources from the 2050s onward. Your input on clarifying civilian mortality causes has been noted and may prompt a future revision of that subsection if further evidence emerges. — Ledgerwright (talk | contribs) 10:10, 8 November 2026 (UTC)
