I will review this article shortly. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 05:11, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Here are the issues I found:

Since you mention in the lead that it can't really be considered a war, is the current title the appropriate one? I presume it probably is the most-used name though, and if that's the case it's fine.
"The Ho-Chunks were reacting to a wave of lead miners" lead is wikilinked below, but should be here. I actually didn't realize it meant the metal at first.
"Some U. S. officials," space in U.S. not needed
"50 mostly métis militiamen" is there a link for what metis means?

Just a couple small issues. I'll put the article on hold and will pass it when the issues are fixed. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 22:41, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking the time to do this review. I've fixed the last three issues. Your presumption is correct on the first one: the modern sources generally used the name "Winnebago War" even while recognizing the limited nature of the conflict. —Kevin Myers 00:56, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Everything looks good now, so I'll pass the article as a GA. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 04:36, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
