Result: Kept. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 15:03, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Numerous uncited passages (including a section with an orange "citations needed" banner since 2019) and a lede that is too short to summarise all important aspects of the article. Z1720 (talk) 19:04, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'll take a look at this. Hog Farm Talk 19:41, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the "Benedit Buckeye" section as unsourced and undue detail. If I can get ahold of "The Gettysburg Cyclorama: The Turning Point of the Civil War on Canvas." the rest of this should be doable (it definitely needs further work), if I can't, I'll probably need to let this one go.

Hi, I think I could get this back to GA level. What is your expected timeline? I've done some preliminary work on the 10th CAB article, but currently am on a work trip so can't do anything more on both articles till the 23rd. Is that alright? Matarisvan (talk) 11:34, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Matarisvan: - I'm in process of this (I should be able to access the necessary book now). Do you have any objections if I try to take care of this myself, since I was involved at Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/Battle of Gettysburg/1 as well? Hog Farm Talk 23:28, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't have any objections. Looking forward to your rewrite of this article. Cheers Matarisvan (talk) 02:59, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm still intending to work on this - I've had to take a pause due to internet issues and real-life business, but hopefully I can resume work this weekend. Hog Farm Talk 02:04, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The last of the uncited content is done. I still need to redo the lead and do some source-text integrity checking. Hog Farm Talk 22:15, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Z1720: - I've spot-checked the sources I could access (which, significantly, does not include several paywalled sources and the Thomas 2005 book) and have redone the lead. This isn't perfect, but I think this is ready for re-review. Hog Farm Talk 01:10, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hog Farm: Keep. I think the lede could be expanded upon, but other then that I have no major concerns. Z1720 (talk) 01:17, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I had some trouble writing the lead on this one. Maybe the article writing muse will return after some more sweet tea. Hog Farm Talk 01:19, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
