After writing a couple of articles about anti-German sentiment, I'm excited to give this one a go. I'll do a review by Monday at the latest. Tkbrett (✉) 19:49, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

Lead

• The proclamation was controversial: expand on this; the body mentions that the proclamation was popular among English speakers and unpopular among everyone else.
• Image is definitely PD.

Rise in anti-German sentiment

• Good.

Description

• Theodore Roosevelt needs to be introduced as "Former US President", or something along those lines.
• After World War I ended, the proclamation was repealed...: who repealed it? Harding?

Legacy

• An op-ed published in The Des Moines Register...: when?
• A hearing in the United States House of Representatives...: when?

References

• Checking against all of the sources, the article is well sourced.
• Copyvio score of 9.9% (violation unlikely).

Final comments and verdict

 On hold: Eddie891, a nice little article which only needs a few tweaks. I made some copy edits and slight rewordings as well. Tkbrett (✉) 00:54, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
