I don't understand why there's links to a bunch of history articles? -b 01:29, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Editorializing?

"The idea behind the creation of the League was a good idea because its primary aims still remain important in today’s society however it was badly administered."

I'm not promotign debate on whether or not the ideas behind the League of Nations were good or not, but rather pointing out that such editorializations do not belong on Wikipedia. Could be rephrased to:

"Though the League of Nations was continually undermined and ultimately dissolved, many of the original goals of the League are still pursued by the United Nations, the spiritual successor of the League of Nations."

Not only does it remove the editorializing, it also provides needed reference to the comparison between the League and the UN.

[edit] Vandalism by 212.85.28.237

Can someone revert this article to it's previous version, as it shows clear signs of vandalism. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.7.8.219 (talk) 16:42, 15 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] hmm. interbellum

just a thought, but shouldn't that be interbella? (generally, words ending in -um have a plural ending in -a and interbellum means between the wars, which is plural.) is there an established grammatical consensus that it is indeed interbellum?

Maybe Bellum is being used in a more abstract, all inclusive fashion to mean warfare in general, so by being between two world wars, the Interbellum period is between periods of war, hence Inter-Bellum. D Boland (talk) 01:29, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Is it anything to do with the case of "bellum"? Also - is it just american english - i'm sure i've seen it referred to as interbellum in (english) history books194.209.8.142 (talk) 13:10, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
