Talk:Battle of Batoche

Biased

This account is really biased in favour of the Canadian government. e.g. "A very dangerous situation developed when a group of Métis rushed the artillery. Only Howard's directing a heavy stream of Gatling fire at the attackers prevented a disaster." Would it not be disaster for the Metis to have a Gatling gun firing at them? This page needs to be rewritten to be more objective! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.64.105.79 (talk) 01:13, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

United States Military Task-force

Shouldn't this article be classified under the Canadian Military History Task Force rather the American?

POV

- This account of the battle seems somewhat skewed towards the Point of View of the Canadian Army. Wikipedia is supposed to be an objective source. Considering the numerical and tactical inferiority of the Metis force (they had for the most part inferior firearms and were short on ammunition) the fact that they held off the Canadian forces for four days is laudable. Where is the tactical genius in the Canadian approach here? It seems sheer weight of numbers eventually won.

Assessment

This article was rated C class by an independent assessment (military) August 23, 2014. Comment by reviewer: "C-Class. Still has uncited paras, bit unsure about whether it properly covers the topic, but have given the benefit of the doubt, as it was already assessed as =y. Please bring it back when fully cited.
