@Fayenatic london and Brianalexherrera: Good article but there needs to be a lot more citations before this can be approved. Onegreatjoke (talk) 18:29, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for the assessment. I have added some citations and removed some other info that was uncited. Does the lead section need citations to be repeated within it from the full details in the other sections? – Fayenatic London 20:08, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
- @Fayenatic london: No, unless the claim is controversial. See MOS:LEADCITE. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 05:53, 11 December 2022 (UTC)

Done I added a missing citation for the president of the association for the flame, and removed/replaced material in "Choosing the Unknown Soldier" to correspond to the content of the Verdun website. – Fayenatic London 18:01, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
