Copy editing comments

edit

I have attempted to address the hidden copy editors comments in the sections. Please do look over this again. This one may not have the outstanding issues that the Battle of Apple River Fort has. IvoShandor 10:45, 23 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Looks good to me now. Cricketgirl 11:07, 23 September 2007 (UTC)Reply


GA review

edit

I have taken on Battle of Horseshoe Bend (1832) for review under the Good Article criteria, as nominated on the Good article candidates page by IvoShandor. You'll be pleased to hear that the article meets none of the quick-fail criteria, so I will shortly be conducting an in-depth review and will post the results below.

Where an article is not an outright pass, but requires relatively minor additional work to be brought up to GA standard, I will normally place it on hold - meaning that editors have around a week to address any issues raised. As a precaution to prevent failure by default should this occur, if editors are likely to be unavailable over the next ten days or so, feel free to leave a message on my talk page so we can arrange a more convenient time for review.

Looking forward to reading another interesting article in this excellent series! Regards, EyeSereneTALK 11:29, 7 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

GA on hold

edit

I have now reviewed Battle of Horseshoe Bend (1832) and have placed it on hold. I found only very minor prose issues with the article, so in the name of efficiency I have conducted a minor copyedit myself - the bulk of this was to the section dealing with Dodge's casualties. All other areas (MoS compliance, coverage, neutrality, referencing, images etc) are up to GA standards.

If the article can be proofread to make sure I have not messed anything up, I will be pleased to pass it. Drop me a note on my talk page when ready! All the best, EyeSereneTALK 10:06, 9 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

GA pass

edit

This article has now been passed as a Good Article, and listed as such on the Good Articles page under History > War and military > Conflicts, battles and military exercises. For the record, IvoShandor gets the credit for the editing required to bring this article to GA standard.

For future improvement, the article references could be formatted using the appropriate templates on WP:CITET. Although a preference this is not currently a GA criteria, so did not affect this pass.

Congratulations, and well done! EyeSereneTALK 16:23, 9 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
