You are refering to two sources cited in another one. Please use the original ones. I put citation needed tags on them since they are cited via the problematic source above.
The granddaughter of publishing magnate [[William Randolph Hearst]] and great-granddaughter of self-made millionaire [[George Hearst]], she gained notoriety in 1974 when, following her [[kidnap]]ping by the [[Symbionese Liberation Army]] (SLA), she ultimately joined her captors in furthering their cause. Apprehended after having taken part in a [[bank robbery]] with other SLA members, Hearst was imprisoned for almost two years before her sentence was [[Commutation (law)|commuted]] by President [[Jimmy Carter]]. She was later granted a [[presidential pardon]] by President [[Bill Clinton]].

==Biography==
===Images===
You have by far more images of the royalists than the republicans. Can you shift this balance or are there any reasons to it I'm not aware of.
Hearst was born in [[San Francisco, California]], the third of five daughters of [[Randolph Apperson Hearst]] and Catherine Wood Campbell. She grew up primarily in the wealthy [[San Francisco, California|San Francisco]] suburb of [[Hillsborough, California|Hillsborough]]. She attended [[Crystal Springs Uplands School|Crystal Springs School for Girls]] in Hillsborough and the [[Santa Catalina School for Girls]] in [[Monterey, California|Monterey]]. Among her few close friends she counted Patricia Tobin, whose family founded the Hibernia Bank, a branch of which Hearst would later aid in robbing.


A map of the war would do nicely with the thrusts of the Egyptians and the places were major fighting occured, however, it's not a GA requirement.
===Kidnapping and her time with the SLA===
:I scanned the images from a book. These were the only relevant pictures. Yemen's lenient copyright laws put photos from that period in public domain, but I don't know where good ones can be obtained. I'm not an expert in graphics, but I'll see what can be done.

===Troop numbers===
On [[February 4]], [[1974]], the 19-year-old Hearst was kidnapped from the [[Berkeley, California]], apartment she shared with her fiancé Steven Weed, by a left-wing, [[Urban guerrilla warfare|urban guerrilla]] group called the [[Symbionese Liberation Army]] (SLA). When the attempt to swap Hearst for jailed SLA members failed, the SLA demanded that the captive's family distribute $70 worth of food to every needy Californian — an operation that would cost an estimated $400 million. In response, Hearst's father arranged the immediate donation of $6 million worth of food to the poor of the [[San Francisco Bay Area|Bay Area]]. After the distribution of food, the SLA refused to release Hearst because they deemed the food to have been of poor quality. (In a subsequent tape recording released to the press, Hearst commented that her father could have done better.) On [[April 3]] [[1974]], Hearst announced on an audiotape that she had joined the SLA and assumed the name "Tania"<ref>[http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/guerrilla/timeline/timeline2.html "Timeline: Guerrilla: The Taking of Patty Hearst"], from The ''[[American Experience]]'', accessed 6/6/08</ref> (inspired by the ''nom de guerre'' of [[Haydée Tamara Bunke Bider]], [[Che Guevara]]'s comrade).<ref>"Cuba honors the remains of 10 Guevara comrades" JOSE LUIS MAGANA. ''[[Houston Chronicle]]''. Houston, Tex.: Dec 31, 1998. pg. 24</ref>
You mention only Egyptian troops on the republican side. I doubt that there were zero republican forces and tribesmen. Please try to find at least an estimate for their numbers because that's a major hindrance to GA.
:It's somewhat tricky, because tribesmen kept being bribed back and forth, but I'll try to find some figures.

On [[April 15]], [[1974]], she was photographed wielding an [[M1 Carbine]] while robbing the [[Sunset District]] branch of the Hibernia Bank at 1450 Noriega Street in San Francisco. Later communications from her were issued under the pseudonym [[Tania]] and asserted that she was committed to the goals of the SLA. A warrant was issued for her arrest and in September 1975, she was arrested in a San Francisco apartment with other SLA members. While being booked into prison, she listed her occupation as "Urban Guerilla" and asked her attorney to relay the following message: "Tell everybody that I'm smiling, that I feel free and strong and I send my greetings and love to all the sisters and brothers out there." <ref> [http://www.time.com/time/magazine/printout/0,8816,913456,00.html Patty's Twisted Journey, Time Magazine, September 29, 1975]</ref>

In her trial, which commenced on [[January 15]], [[1976]], Hearst's attorney, [[F. Lee Bailey]], claimed that Hearst had been blindfolded, imprisoned in a narrow closet and physically and sexually abused. The claim that her actions were the result of a concerted brainwashing program was central to her defense. (Hearst's actions have also been attributed to [[Stockholm syndrome]], in which hostages sympathize with the aims of their captors.) Bailey also argued that she had been coerced or intimidated into taking part in the bank robbery.

Legal analysts and Hearst herself later said that Bailey did a poor job defending her. He gave very short and weak closing arguments. Hearst was convicted of bank robbery on [[March 20]],[[1976]]. Her seven-year prison term was eventually commuted by [[President of the United States|President]] [[Jimmy Carter]], and Hearst was released from prison on [[February 1]], [[1979]], having served only twenty-two months. She was granted a full [[pardon]] by President [[Bill Clinton]] on [[January 20]], [[2001]], the final day of his presidency.

===Family life===
After her release from prison, she married her former bodyguard, Bernard Shaw. She now lives with her husband and two children, William Hatton and Sommer Jennings, both of whom are the results of prior relationships. She also has a daughter, model Lydia Hearst-Shaw, with husband Bernard.

Hearst's children are both models. Her niece is model [[Amanda Hearst]].

Hearst owns [[French bulldog]]s; in 2008, CH Shann's Legally Blonde was named Best of Opposite Sex at the [[Westminster Kennel Club]] show.<ref>[http://westminsterkennelclub.org/2008/results/breed/frebulld.html The Westminster Kennel Club | 2008 Breed Results: French Bulldog<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>

==Documentaries about Hearst==
*Hearst's 1982 [[autobiography]] ''[[Every Secret Thing]]'' was made into the [[biopic]] [[Patty Hearst (film)|''Patty Hearst'']] by [[Paul Schrader]] in 1988, with [[Natasha Richardson]] portraying Hearst.
*Robert Stone in 2004 directed ''[[Guerrilla: The Taking of Patty Hearst]]'',<ref>[http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/guerrilla/ PBS]</ref> which focuses on the media frenzy surrounding the Symbionese Liberation Army, and includes new footage and interviews. (The film was released in some countries under the title ''Neverland: The Rise and Fall of the Symbionese Liberation Army.'')

==Material produced by Hearst==
*Dissatisfied with other documentaries made on the subject, Hearst produced a special for the [[Travel Channel]] entitled ''Secrets of San Simeon with Patricia Hearst'' in which she took viewers inside her grandfather's mansion [[Hearst Castle]], providing unprecedented access to the property. (A video and DVD were later released of the special.)

*Hearst co-authored a novel with Cordelia Frances Biddle titled ''Murder at San Simeon'' (Scribner, 1996), based upon the death of [[Thomas Ince]] on her grandfather's yacht.

==Acting roles==
Hearst has cultivated a career as an actress.
*Her notoriety intersected with the criminal obsessions and [[camp (style)|camp]] sensibilities of filmmaker [[John Waters (filmmaker)|John Waters]], who has used Hearst in numerous small roles in films including ''[[Cry-Baby]]'', ''[[Serial Mom]]'', ''[[Pecker (film)|Pecker]]'', ''[[Cecil B. DeMented]]'', and ''[[A Dirty Shame]]''.
*Hearst appeared in the films ''[[Bio-Dome]]'' and ''Second Best''.
*Hearst supplied the voice for the character Haffa Dozen, an ex-stripper appearing on the [[October 19]], [[2005]] episode of the Sci-Fi Channel's animated TV series ''[[Tripping the Rift]]''.<ref>[http://www.nydailynews.com/front/story/354165p-301901c.html NY Daily News]</ref>
* She appeared in an episode of ''[[The Adventures of Pete & Pete]]'' as Mrs. Krechmar, the nicest housewife in the world.
* Notably playing against type, Hearst played a crack-addicted prostitute on an episode of the comedic ''[[Son of the Beach]]''.
* Hearst's voice was used as a caller in the ''[[Frasier]]'' episode, [[Frasier Crane's Day Off]] in 1994.
* She appeared as [[Anthony Clark (actor)|Anthony Clark]]'s mother on the sitcom ''[[Boston Common (TV series)|Boston Common]]''.
* She appeared in an episode of ''[[Veronica Mars]]'' portraying Selma Hearst, the granddaughter of the founder of Hearst College and college board member, who had faked her own kidnapping. Although Hearst college is fictional, it strongly echoes the real Stanford family history, with the founder being a railroad tycoon rather than a media baron. Additionally, the kidnapping plot echoes Patty Hearst's real life kidnapping, when it turns out her on-air kidnapping was staged.
