[edit]

The 3rd Arkansas section needs to be moved to a regimental page like the 1st Arkansas (Confederate) Scromett (talk) 16:31, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There was no "Confederate Medal of Honor"

[edit]

The Confederate Medal of Honor is a postwar UDC creation as best I can tell, and was not named that either. Any references to it here are going to need citations from contemporary (not post-war) sources. Red Harvest (talk) 13:32, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the following:

The Confederacy had only one medal of valor to offer its soldiers in honor of heroism during the war. That medal, the Confederate Medal of Honor, was awarded to forty seven Arkansans for bravery in action. Few, if any, ever received the actual medal, as the Confederacy lacked the funds to produce them in great numbers. However, they did keep maticulous records of those awarded.

I'm not sure where it belongs in this article, but it is apparently a postwar award according to the link provided, and it did not use the name given here. It is not clear from the reference that the men listed were actually recorded by for the award by the CSA or if they were nominated by the UDC later. Understand that this is not an objection to the award itself nor a denial of the importance of the actions by the forty-seven. The context appears to be incorrect and requires some clean up by someone with more knowledge of the award. Red Harvest (talk) 23:21, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Pike?

[edit]

Any reason Albert Pike isn't mentioned here under notables? 205.153.140.34 (talk) 22:54, 3 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Arkansas in the American Civil War

[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Arkansas in the American Civil War's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "nrhpinv":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 21:42, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
