New Mexico Campaign

I've been trying to get this article up to B-class and was wondering what else would be needed for this. Wild Wolf (talk) 14:41, 21 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Seems pretty good to me. You should improve the density/coverage of citations. Expand the lead section to be 3-4 paragraphs that summarize the main points of the article. And the dates in the lead section and infobox do not match. Hal Jespersen (talk) 00:58, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

How is the article now? Enough citations? Wild Wolf (talk) 12:31, 5 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good. Hal Jespersen (talk) 14:52, 5 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So upgrade to B-class now? Wild Wolf (talk) 00:01, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I generally do not participate in article classification, so I do not know what the procedure is for approving the upgrade. (I am always willing to help review articles, but I do this informally, not part of the formal structure.) Hal Jespersen (talk) 18:44, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Some points:

The aftermath section needs citing and probably expanding given the size of the article. What happened politically, expand a bit more for those people not knowledgable on the American Civil War
I would completely remove the Popular culture section, it is uncited and adds nothing to the article.
The last paragraph in the lead is not covered in the article, perhaps expand on it in the aftermath section.
What were the casualties on the Union side?
Some of the prose is very choppy in places, it needs a good copyedit.
It needs some more citations in places. There are some "contentious" statements which need citing.
That is it for now, regards. Woody (talk) 20:55, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
