Fair use rationale for Image:Battle Natural Bridge Flag.jpg
[edit]Image:Battle Natural Bridge Flag.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 22:56, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Medal of Honor recipients, Battle of Natural Bridge
[edit]The article lists three Medal of Honor recipients at the Battle of Natural Bridge. There were three more for a total of six, and my g'g'grandfather, John Lanning was one of them. He was a Landsman on the USS Magnolia. You can see the details on his wikipedia page here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_S._Lanning Thank you. 2001:5B0:4EDB:61F8:CA5:30F4:ED7:CB72 (talk) 08:00, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
Did you know nomination
[edit]- The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was: rejected by reviewer, closed by BlueMoonset talk 15:34, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
- ... that the Natural Bridge Battlefield Monument incorrectly claims Tallahassee, Florida to be the only Confederate capital not to be captured despite Austin, Texas also never being captured? Source: It is notable that even though the inscription claims that Tallahassee was the only capital of the South not captured by the Union during the Civil war, in actuality Austin Texas was also not captured during the war and never had enemy troops in any direction from it in a 100 mile radius, unlike Tallahassee had.

Created by Vu-Lam L.N. (talk). Self-nominated at 21:01, 12 February 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Battle of Natural Bridge; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
- Article has not been expanded recently and therefore does not qualify for DYK; indeed, the only edit made, by another editor on the same day as this nomination, removed some prose while adding a source. Closing as unsuccessful. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:34, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
Changes to page
[edit]I have removed the quoted inscription from the monument at the battlefield site. I do not feel that the quotation added anything meaningful to the article, and it has been the target of someone wanting to highlight a supposed error in the inscription, which is irrelevant to the article. (As an aside, the inscription claims that Tallahassee was the only capitol of a "southern" state that was not captured by Union forces during the Civil War. While obviously chest-thumping by the author(s) of that inscription, it reflects the view that Texas was a "western", not a "southern", state.) I also consolidated the two mentions of the state park, and renamed the last section to reflect that it was about more than the annual reenactments. Donald Albury 12:50, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
