The second half of this article reduplicates information in the article on the French Intervention; the two articles should be better coordinated.

Also, I have noticed that some other pages reference "War of the Reform" rather than "Reform War"; those should be found and fixed. One of these days! - Potosino 01:06, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that too and I hope I get around to it sometime soon. About the "War of Reform" references, just don't worry about those. There's a redirect on that page pointing to this article. (See Wikipedia:Redirect)-- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 01:27, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There was no mention to the infamous McLane-Ocampo treaty and to the help that the American Navy and the American government gave to Juárez in Veracruz when they were about to be finally defeated by Miramón. There should be also an article about the US intervention as there is one about the French intervention. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.159.108.37 (talk) 21:56, 14 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I found and fixed the broken reference -- it was in the Benito Juarez article -- to "Mexican War of the Reform" (no redirect from that!). --Potosino 03:46, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Just created a redirect with that name, just in case it comes up again. Thanks for fixing the link! -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 04:08, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Also, the opening of the article gives as the war's dates 1857 - 1860, the right sidebar 1857 - 1861. Not sure which is right. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.3.37.195 (talk) 21:32, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Quick question, what is the red/blue map based on? Ive been doing a research project as a hobby and some of the states seem randomly assigned? Oaxaca was liberal through and through, one of the largest supporters of the liberal cause? https://archive.org/details/reforminoaxaca180000berr/page/52/mode/2up?view=theater — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.192.227.249 (talk) 18:07, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The image's Wikimedia Commons page only lists David Piñera Ramírez's Visión histórica de la frontera norte de México (1994), but it solely substantiates Baja California's neutrality. I also find their designations dubious as there are discrepancies with Erin Greb's January and April 1858 illustrations (pp. 51, 55) in Will Fowler's The Grammar of Civil War: A Mexican Case Study, 1857–61 (2022). The latter has most of the country as disputed, including Oaxaca. However, neither depict Chihuahua as conservative. Given the nature of guerrilla warfare, division of the states can be difficult, if somewhat inappropriate. However, the image is eligible for removal per WP:UNSOURCED unless substantiated.

Most of the country being contested is absolutely valid because, well, the war was a mess, evidenced by the fact it has 2 stages with both sides almost winning more than once.
Chihuahua swinging for the liberals could make sense, i heard a passing reference to fronterizos fighting for the liberals, coming from the arid areas near the apache.
I would say for the 3y war part of the conflict, it should be appropriate for a map to depict how the states initially swung, just like the ACW. The initial phase of the war wasnt mostly about the guerilla type of warfare. 50.192.227.249 (talk) 14:08, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
