edit- ... that the Battle for Outpost Vegas and the surrounding outposts are considered the bloodiest fighting to date in western Korea during the Korean War?

I don't see anything wrong with this (plagiarism, paraphrasing, etc.), but it would be good to mention more about the horse besides the one line in the intro, since this is a part of the hook and probably could be better-included in the article. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 17:04, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
- @Ktr101: Updated hook to reflect the article's concentration on the battle and not the horse. With that addition, is the DYK nom worthy of approval? Jdanbeck (talk) 06:25, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
- @Jdanbeck: Is there a citation for that, as it only appears once and could be viewed as an opinion. Sorry to be that person on all of this, but I just want to make sure that no one will be able to challenge the fact down the road. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 14:18, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
- @Ktr101: Updated the article, there is now a citation for the hook. Is the review good to go now? I appreciate your help.
