Battle of Nashville I think i have dropped into your article

Sorry, I have removed in Battle of Nashville part that didn't make any sense, Hood's army had suffered heavy but I see that you are doing work in progress. Kanikosen (talk) 17:43, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

No prob. Thanks! Boo Boo (talk) 17:48, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

Notes/References

Hi there. Please don't impose broad formatting across many articles without floating it in a talk format first. Especially when it comes to Featured Articles. The Notes/References headers are there according to MOS. Notes and References are the correct headers for those sections. References/Bibliography are you've changed it is incorrect. Please seek some consensus before making changes across a broad swath of articles Historical Perspective 2 (talk) 19:55, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

Apologies, started to go through trying to follow MOS and somehow got references and bibliography backwards. Thanks!Boo Boo (talk) 14:45, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
Also, you might consider using {{efn}} instead of note tag. IMO of course, it is easier to use and produces a nicer result, because it produces alphabetic-sequence references whereas note-tag generates number-sequence references like <ref>. Of course if an article has a clearly established style, you have to follow it (unless you can secure consensus for change at the talk page). Just my 2¢­ worth. If you want to see the effect, try Calendar (New Style) Act 1750, which as many references and many explanatory notes. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 16:18, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi Hhfjbaker. You've added references byo "Wineman 2013" to 154th New York Infantry Regiment, but no such work is defined in the article. Could you add the cite to the References section or let me know what work this refers to? -- LCU ActivelyDisinterested transmissions °co-ords° 17:03, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
