| Dec 12, 2020 at 16:39 | comment | added | T.E.D.♦ | @LarsBosteen - I think this is in judgement call range. If I could google the title, click on the first WP hit in the results, and then excerpt a paragraph as the "answer", that's obviously too basic. If I must compile an answer from information scattered around a WP page or three that someone without my knowledge on the subject wouldn't even know to look for, that doesn't seem quite so "basic". | |

| Dec 11, 2020 at 8:35 | comment | added | Schwern | The Philadelphia Campaign also illustrates why it wasn't necessarily a good idea. It didn't end the war, they didn't capture Congress, the British abandoned Philadelphia, and it left the potentially far more dangerous Saratoga campagin unsupported leading to a major British defeat. | |
