The issue as to how to deal with the conflicting sources about the behaviour of the Dutch-Belgian troops is being discussed on talk:Battle of Waterloo. Please do not make major changes to this section without joining that discussion. David Underdown (talk) 14:19, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. One other thing to be aware of, it's not immediately obvious to me why the website you were linking too should be regarded as a WP:Reliable source, as defined by Wikipedia. It might be a good idea for you to explain on the Waterloo talk page somethign about who's behind it, and what their credentials are. I should also have done this before:

Waterloo source newly available online

Hi, I found your greeting of March 30 only today, because I haven't bothered to log on for a long time, being too disgusted :-) Thanks. You may be interested to know (as a fellow Waterloo buff) that all three volumes of F. de Bas /J. comte de 't Serclaes de Wommersom, "La Campagne de 1815 aux Pays-Bas d'après les rapports officiels Néerlandais" are available in google books and may be downloaded as pdf-files. I just placed a direct link to vol. III, the report by Col. Van Zuylen van Nijevelt (pp. 288-352) in note 59 in the Battle of Waterloo article. But there is much more. Among others, two versions of gen. Trip's after-battle report (one of 1815, the other slightly longer one of 1823) which obliquely (because Trip did not know he had to defend his conduct at the time; he died in 1835, before Uxbridge accused him posthumously of cowardice) put the lie to the old libel by Uxbridge perpetuated in Siborne. There are also three reports about the Dutch/Belgian 3rd division by gen. Chassé, Col. Detmers, and the chief of staff of the division, lt. col. Van Delen. The first volume describes the Quatre-Bras story, and vol. II the events of the 18th of June. It may be difficult to find the three volumes, because google books is a bit temperamental, but I found the third volume with the keywords ["De Bas" Zuylen] and the second volume with ["De Bas" Uxbridge Trip]. I hope this is useful :-) I am now working on biographies of De Bas and the count 'tSerclaes de Wommersom for wikipedia.--Ereunetes (talk) 20:34, 26 April 2010 (UTC) [reply]
