1.

  • Done
  • Can we get McDowell's rank in the lead? I've taken several Civil War battle articles through GAR, and it's a frequent request to include ranks.
  • Done
  • "Engagements American Civil War" - This parameter is usually used to list battles, not the overall war
  • Done
  • " United States Army

Union Army" - Do both of these need listed in the infobox? It's a touch redundant

  • Only Union then, after all they were volunteers and not regulars
  • Link the Odd Fellows
  • Done
  • Link Harrisburg
  • Done
  • Link the various ranks in the formation article to the articles specifically for that rank in the US Army.
  • Done
  • Don't need to ink Montgomery County in the table, it's linked in the text paragraph above it
  • Done
  • Link companies at first mention in the text
  • Done
  • Consider linking Philadelphia, I don't know how well known this is internationally. Same with Baltimore
  • Done
  • Link steamer
  • Done
  • Link 2nd Lieutenant. Also, go ahead and spell out Second, because it seems to be spelled out more in military sources, unless the abbreviated 2nd Lt. is used
  • Done
  • Link Confederate at first mention
  • Done
  • Done
  • "In the preliminary movements of the First Battle of Bull Run, the division left camp on the Old Fairfax Road, arriving at Sangster's Station late on 18 July" - I'd consider linking to the campaign rather than the First Battle of Bull Run here, as the campaign is more the topic than the battle in the march to Centreville
  • Done

2.

  • Refs 6 and 9 need via parameters for newspapers.com
  • Done

3.

  • Do you think it would be appropriate to include a couple sentences towards the beginning about the start of the Civil War?
  • Have added a brief mention of Fort Sumter
