  • Comment: "in both cases, the Greeks united successfully to defeat the invasions." in the header is simply wrong. Take any decent book on the topic, the Greeks split up in a supporting faction and an opposing one. The opposing one defeated the Persians and the supporters.

The sections that lack references are the lead section, Importance of Marathon (that has a quote though) and later conflicts. As for the mix, I would have made the links ref style but I do not know how.Ikokki 13:58, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The "we" is actually a common impersonal form used in Greek. Obviously in English it is bad form, thank you that you pointed this to fix it.Ikokki 12:02, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I love the impersonal "we". I use it all the time. Just not in this context. Sorry. LordAmeth 13:26, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
