Concerns about this article

I have two concerns about this article:

The term "Battle of Uruk" (in English at least) appears nowhere on the Internet except in this article. While I realize that you enjoy writing new articles, there is nothing in this article that is already in the article on Sargon the Great. Therefore, I am wondering whether we shouldn't just redirect this article into Sargon the Great.
I am having a difficult time interpreting the only reference. Apparently it is something entitled "History" published by the Instituto Geografico De Agostini. I can find no mention of this on the internet. Can you provide more information?

Also, please read this section on how to cite references. Thanks, Madman (talk) 02:55, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You beat me to it. I agree, this should be a redirect. A quote from this 'History' would be helpful also (and Egyptzo, please note that you need page numbers for books).--Doug Weller (talk) 07:24, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You can find nothing about it on the net because everyone mentiones this battle as a battle in which Sargon defeated his rival. A book provided much more details on this subject. in Fact, I was amused to discover how much details it had about ancient Sumeria and Akkad. You have a page number in the references. It is important that Wikipedia has this battle in a seperate article because it was the first time in history that we historicaly know that an important and decisive military conflict took place. Although it may not be bad to rename the article to - The battle at Uruk. Egyptzo (talk) 08:41, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
