Hello - I'll be subbing your entry, so please subscribe and I'll be back with questions later.

Hi,

Thank you.

I've converted this into GuideML and added a few links.

One thing I think that might help the entry is at the top a short sentence explaining what the Spanish Civil War was about for people who do not know. You've mentioned that Franco led a coup d'état later on in the text – perhaps that could be moved higher up with a smidgen more detail?

Do you agree, and if so, what would you like the sentence to say?

Buenos días,
Sorry for not answering you before. Too many things happened this week.


What about this for that intro you ask?

The Bombing of Gernica was one of the many mass murders that happened during the Spanish Civil War.
Along the 19th century, the Spanish army was used to interfere in politics when their interests were at risk. In the summer of 1936 the usual warnings to the government ended up in a coup d´etat.
The army was part of the conservative stablishment. All of them were against the reforms that the government, a coalition of left forces that had just won the elecions, was to carry out.
The sublevation was led by the militars Balmes, Sanjurjo, Mola and Franco, who will stablish a dictartoship at the end of the war in 1939.

I want to say again thank you, muchas gracias BB. You rescued this.

I've slightly tweaked that intro and put it at the top - would you like to have a thorough read-through and let me know if there are any changes you'd like to make, questions you'd like to ask or if you are happy for this to go into the queue for the front page.

I think this is better:

The Bombing of Gernica was one of the many mass murders that happened during the Spanish Civil War
On July 18th of 1936, a coup d´état took place in Spain. The Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) came next.The sublevation was led by the militars Balmes, Sanjurjo, Mola and Franco, who established a dictartoship that lasted 40 years.
The Spanish army was used to interfere in politics when their interests were at risk. The army was part of the conservative stablishment. All of them were against the reforms that the government, a coalition of left forces that had just won the elecions, was to carry out.

Thanks.

Yes, I want to write more. Right now I´m busy writing a kind of report about my period of teacher training. And getting ready tests, marks, reports...

After this term I hope to be free to write something for the guide. But I´m not sure what about.

Hasta pronto
