German Strategy and the Path to Verdun: Erich von Falkenhayn and the Development of Attrition, 1870-1916 R Foley. I made an amendment to the conclusion using this source (Chapter seven) but I don't know how to cite it in the text. Keith-264 ( talk) 14:51, 22 September 2010 (UTC) reply

@Keith-264. This article contains an "Analysis" part which doesn't have any citation. Can you add citation to it, please? Regards. Ti2008 ( talk) 14:11, 16 September 2014 (UTC) reply

Greetings Ti2008, it's far from a complete article and not all of it is my work but I think that paragraph comes from Foley. Keith-264 ( talk) 14:22, 16 September 2014 (UTC) reply

Apparently he may have contributed to the lessons learned document. See "His talents became most apparent when his Second Army played a large role in the September 1915 offensive in Champagne. Though the French failed to break through German defensive lines, Pétain’s after-action report identified shortcomings in French methods and provided important ideas about future operations." ^[1] Unable to fix this at the moment, as this is three degrees of separation from the article I am working on, but thought I would mention it as room for improvment, given his subsequent importance.
