There is no need to write a paragraph in a infobox. Its purpose is to summarize the event in one simple sentence.
I also wanted to point out the fact that despite the Central Chinese Army were able to withheld the Japanese advances and causing considerable damages, as well as the fact that the Chinese were able to preserve their strength and retreat, in formal context it does not make the Battle of Wuhan a "victory" for the Chinese in any sense, as the Chinese objective was to defend Wuhan, and their mission have failed. We can provide deeper insights in the article, but not in the infobox.
On my last note, I found the term "Pyrrhic victory" out of place in an encyclopedic content. Whoever is in favorable of the term needs to at minimum spell it right. Alessa • talk01:29, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
There are too many misunderstandings on this battle. It is important to note that the Japanese Army continues to advance after the Battle of Wuhan, notably the landing in Canton and the assault on Nanchang and Changsha. The China theatre did not transform into stalemate until 1941. Alessa • talk01:34, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
No its not important. No Japanese large scale offensives were made in China after Wuhan until Operation Ichigo. Japan was forced to change tactics afterwards by using Amphib operations in the hope of starving China of strategic supplies only that didnt work with the completion of the Burma Road. Nanchang and Changsha were both merely local offensives as part of the stalemate. Should also be noted that Japan lost half its committed strength in this battle while Chiang Kaishek's Huangpu élite formations remained largely intact.82.43.177.176 (talk) 01:51, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
