Hi, this is feedback on User:Noname5280/Reading Railroad Company v. Pennsylvania (1872).

First, this is clearly amazing work. You've mastered many of the trickier technical aspects of editing, such as text boxes. The lead is good, except I would add the court's ultimate conclusion as the last sentence in the lead section.

The background on the Civil War itself might be a bit much, but I wouldn't take it out. I would, however, try to add a little nuance on the differences between North and South. Rather than "they", I might use a different qualifier such as "state governments", etc.

I might link to discussion of the Dormant Commerce Clause in the discussion section.

I would add a short section for the dissent.

You might also try to do a paragraph on what this case meant for the future, for industrialization, etc.

All together, this is amazing.
