Hi Hog Farm, another excellently written American Civil War article. Review: article moved to mainspace on 9 October and far exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; the sources are almost entirely offline, for which I am happy to AGF there is no overly close paraphrasing from; ALT1 is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to the source cited; image is fine at this scale and appropriately licensed; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks good to go - Dumelow (talk) 09:26, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
