Interesting article. A few comments:

  • suggest "Within the cemetery is a monument erected by the United Daughters of the Confederacy, which is modelled on the Lion of Lucerne"
    • Done
  • suggest adding lk=on to the acreage conversion to link the measurements, as not everyone is familiar with them
    • Done for the first usages in the lead and main body
  • "storage for a local educational usage" is a bit wordy
    • Simplified
  • suggest "Confederate Chapel, Cemetery and Cottage"
    • removed the word "the" in the sentence about the NRHP listing and added quotation marks around the name in the sentence, I assume that's what you mean
  • at the end of the History section, add a sentence drawn from the Missourian article which says that it has drawn little controversy because it was an old folks' home, also note that the Confederate flag was never flown there when it was an old folks' home.
    • Done
  • suggest "The site saw a total of 112,505 visitors in 2019"
    • Done
  • "Weddings can be held within the chapel"
    • Good catch. Fixed
  • In the Features section, mention that the buildings etc are clustered in the northwest sector of the park.
    • Done
  • Not for this, but suggest you contact WikiProject Missouri and ask if someone is going past whether they could take a pic or two.
    • Grey Wanderer responded on the talk page about trying to locate an old picture of his of the site

Nice job. Placing on hold for the above to be addressed. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 10:16, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    • @Peacemaker67: - I've responded to all points above, although I'm not certain I completely understand what you mean by one of them. Hog Farm Bacon 18:44, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • This article is well-written, verifiable using reliable sources, covers the subject well, is neutral and stable, contains no plagiarism, and is illustrated by a map with an appropriate caption. Passing. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 09:47, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
