Abraham Lincoln assassination[edit]

I'm hoping to get this article up to FA status, but I'll need to find the time to really edit it heavily. Until then I'd like to hear others opinions on what could be done for the article. --YankeeDoodle14 23:07, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The intro should be closer to three paragraphs (WP:LEAD). That table you have as the first section might be salvageable, but it certainly shouldn't be the first section and might be better off as a paragraph. Kaisershatner 20:13, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Have a look at MOS. Particulary for sections and capitalizations.--BaldClarke 21:15, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • For such a major event in U.S. history, you should have more than two sources. The Aftermath section seems way too short, considering the tribunal lasted for seven weeks. Watch out for weasel words like "Many believe." --cholmes75 (chit chat) 15:46, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
