Were my improvements alriht???

I have re-assessed this article as "Start," and am contemplating whether it maybe even deserves a B. The article appears to cover all the major details of the battle, and includes an infobox. I don't know much about this period of history, so I can't really guess at how much more could be said. I have rated the battle as Mid-Importance because, as far as I am aware, it was the Battle of Alesia that was far more crucial to the Roman-Vercingetorix (Gauls) conflict; Gergovia was just one chapter of the events leading up to Alesia.

Gergovia wasn't Caesar's only military defeat. He was also defeated at the battle of Dyrrhachium during the Civil War. Varlet16 21:35, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
