Arizona Territory capitals[edit]

(

)

... that the capital of the Arizona Territory moved from Prescott to Tucson, back to Prescott, and then to Phoenix in its first 25 years? This is the premise of the whole article. Summarized in [1], however the JSTOR journal is a much better source

Reviewed: Fulvous Owl
Comment: I can't recall the period "25 years" in any of the sources, but all the dates are sourced and non-controversial facts from which 25 years is a simple calculation.

Dmadeo, yes. That was such a small grammatical correction that you could have made it yourself. MB 13:39, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

True, perhaps I should have suggested an ALT hook. I would not have edited yours. Thanks for the article and the DYK submission dm (talk) 14:58, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

Dmadeo, You could have edited the hook since the change was minor and fixed a very obvious omission. That goes on all the time here. Thanks for the review. MB 15:58, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
