Comment I think that this is cherry picking. You have made a fantastic start but there are all the other battles that are listed at Template:Campaignbox War of the Spanish Succession. They all need to be GA/A/FA for it to be a well rounded topic. Woodym555 13:45, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Oppose Although I agree that the topic articles are both important and excellent, there are a large number of other articles that should belong here for it to be a featured topic, like Malplaquet and Oudenarde etc. Most of the other battles are little more than start-class or B-class. I would also like to see some of the most important commanders here, for example the Duke of Marlborough (who is featured). However, if only the battles go here, then most or all of them need to be worked on to get them to featured status. PeterSymonds 17:38, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
