Communist Santiago Carrillo Solares was accused of the killing of Nationalists in the Paracuellos massacre near Paracuellos de Jarama

The main subject was how many were killed. Xx236 (talk) 09:29, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Addition of Information, please!

The page needs much more time and energy put into it to completely change its structure and content. Sections such as "evacuation of children" and "death toll" can surely be incorporated into other broader topics, while other very relevant information is nowhere to be seen. Right now, the page is very confusing. I have added a small section dedicated to the consequences of the Civil War, but there is still so much work to be done! KGLAP (talk) 10:55, 17 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello KGLAP, as to the "Death toll" section, which is 99% my work, I suggest you read my initial comments here. You will see I shared some of your doubts. However, the question of the actual death toll is so controversial, so much subject to widely differing estimates and so complex methodologically that I found no other option but to create a separate section. Of course, you might reduce the whole thing to one sentence, like "death toll estimates vary from 150,000 to 2,000,000" but I am not sure whether this would be a step forward.

Spanish Civil War was one of the Warfare good articles

This article can be better article only when it is more bad article (comparing to good article Spanish article) Desde1931 (talk) 01:41, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I think that real war action on soil of Spain was started and finished by Hitler. Other people think too: https://422x.wordpress.com/

Dubious content?

Is "Cristiano Ronaldo" in the Information Box the footballer (as a result of vandalism) or someone else? I think it is either ambiguous or dubious. Anyway I'm not going to change it, please help verify. --Ný(rönn)-Holtredéþch-Deskrúð / Nyholtredehn^Discussion! 02:18, 1 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
