Talk:Vidal III

<b>Ledgerwright</b>: I believe the lead paragraph requires significant expansion; specifically, the claim that Vidal III was 'born in 1500' lacks a primary source citation and contradicts the established timeline for the Third Age in █lmarka. Furthermore, the statement regarding his appointment as Lord Marshal needs to clarify whether this was a hereditary title or an extraordinary merit-based promotion, as per our guidelines on nobility. Please address these points and provide references before the article can be considered reliable. — Ledgerwright (talk | contribs) 09:10, 9 November 2026 (UTC)

<b>HalvardK</b>: I have removed the assertion that Vidal's legacy is 'inextricably linked' to the Tariff █nion until a peer-reviewed analysis connects his specific military exploits to the 1780 confederation's formation. Without hard data on resource exploitation rates or direct legislative involvement, phrases like 'fueled the growth' are too speculative for an encyclopedia entry and should be replaced with neutral descriptions of concurrent events rather than implied causation. — HalvardK (talk | contribs) 09:10, 9 November 2026 (UTC)

<b>Ledgerwright</b>: I agree that we must strip away any language implying a mystical connection between Vidal and the industrial boom; however, the omission of his role in the 1580 border skirmishes with the Kharthian Federation seems incomplete given his title as Minister to the Imperial Senate. Could you please verify if there are any official Senate records from that period mentioning his actions before we decide on a complete rewrite or archival search? — Ledgerwright (talk | contribs) 09:10, 9 November 2026 (UTC)
