That "Scientific Expedition" was not a "try to recover their lost posesions". Spain had recognized Chilean independence years before that. And how they were going to reconquist Peru & Chile with a fleet? Climbing their ships inside land? This article is quite NNPOV -- 80.103.138.14 02:42, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
The end of this article is inconclusive in regard to the resolution of the war. -- Cjs56 17:15, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
in the 1860's , Spain was the 3RD naval power , only years later , would USA take its place and become 3rd and Spain subsquently take 4th, so can i change it?-- EuroHistoryTeacher ( talk) 03:22, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
In the order of battle section the term "revolving cannon" is confusing. The use of "revolving" appears in the 1880s for certain types of small caliber, rapid fire guns carried largely for anti-torpedo boat defense. In English I believe the more correct term would be "pivot gun" as that was univerally used in the period to describe large caliber guns that could be pivoted on a single mounting to fire either to port and starboard or over a wider arc as a chase or stern gun. -- Walterggreen3 ( talk) 14:26, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
One user has removed this map several times due to some aledged innaccuracies in the Ecuador-Peru border. Any way, this innacuracies are relatively small and are not the focus of what is eíntered to be shown with the map. The map was made to show the locations of battles in the Chincha Islands War not to give the Peruvian version (or the Ecuadorian) of the Peru-Ecuador border. In fact Ecuador is almost irrelevant as it the country did never engage in actions against Spain. Dentren | Talk 20:21, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
Dentren, again: Please fix the map, the information showed is incorrect, that areas was not in dispute in that time, they always were Peruvian territory, the map must be accurated to be useful here in Wikipedia. Greetings. Cloudaoc ( talk) 15:43, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
Strength of beligerents? Men, ships, artillery? Casualties? If anyone knows or has access to this information, I think it would be very benificial to the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.245.91.170 ( talk) 03:43, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
The current name of the article (Chincha Islands War) is misleading and absolutely uncommon. In Chile and in Perú it is called "Guerra contra España" ("War against Spain"), and in Spain they call it "Guerra del Pacífico" ("War of the Pacific"). I understand none of those names seems available, unless the years are added between parenthesis. But "Chincha Islands War" is completely misleading, because it refers to one stage of the war as if it were the whole thing. Chapters of this story were written in Valparaiso, and the coasts of Peru. In German and in Spanish they have solved the issue by calling it "Hispanic-South American War", and using the other names in the first paragraph of the article.

An interesting question to respond about this article is why the images are located in places outside the area they should be at. For example, the Chincha Islands guano image and the occupation image are all way below the sections they should be located at. Any ideas?-- MarshalN20 | Talk 20:18, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
"Ironclad monitors - Loa – Built 1854" The first Monitor was built in 1861. Maybe the Loa was built in 1864?-- TDKehoe ( talk) 15:32, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
