GA Review[edit]

Over all this article is good, though I did find a few issues:

  • Ref #6 (Brandon Aird) is a dead link, so those referenced by that need a new one.
  • "as well as A Company, a Combat Engineer company, B Company, a Military Intelligence company, and C Company, a Signal company." I originally misread that as C Company and Signal company being two different companies. I assume they're one in the same, so reword.
  • Even when the publisher's listed in the article's title it should still be added (i think i added them all, just a note for you for the future)
  • Make sure dates and authors are added for references when applicable.
  • "Throughout their 15-month deployment, the brigade participated in more than 9,000 patrols throughout the region." Should be 'OVER 9000' (I'm just kidding, this sentence is fine :P)

I'll put this on hold for a few days and pass upon completion. Wizardman 16:33, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A) Too short B) Only websites; lack of book sources. I would reject. Peltimikko (talk) 18:50, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Then you clearly have no experience dealing with Good Articles. Per WP:GAR and WP:RGA, length is not a factor in determining the worthiness of an article, nor are book sources. —Ed!(talk) 12:58, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed, no books is not a criterion in and of itself (if there were a bunch of books on it and none were used, that would be a different story), and given what it is, the length is fine. Anyway, I'll now pass the article. Wizardman 18:44, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
