Mostly copied from 1866 report

The text of this article appears to have been mostly copied from "Report of the adjutant general of Arkansas, for the period of the late rebellion, and to November 1, 1866. (Washington : Govt. print. off., 1867), by Arkansas. Adjutant-General's Office" [1] It's hard to determine where the copying starts and stops. While it's not a copyright violation, it is bad form to present verbatim text from another source without identifying it, and also, articles should not be based on poor quality sources like that anyway. Unless the principal editor, @Damon.cluck:, can put the copied text into quotation marks the best solution may be to stub the article. Mobi Ditch (talk) 03:02, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
