• First opinions, Most of the info seems to have come from Self-published sources,like Fort Drum Public Affairs Office . Self-published sources are largely not acceptable.
  • Per my other GA articles, this has never been a problem at the GA level. At A-class, yes, but it's never prevented promotion in a GA article, per 95th Infantry Division (United States), 100th Infantry Division (United States), and others. —Ed!^(talk) 02:36, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
• The title of the subsection "legacy" is inappropriate since the unit is still active. Suggest split into "In popular media" and "Alumni" sections.
  • Done. —Ed!^(talk) 02:36, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
• The Article seems well referenced and well written
• IS the redlinked Panama Canal Division the same as Panama Canal Division (United States)? Please check all redlinks for spelling and articles in different spellings
  • Fixed. —Ed!^(talk) 02:36, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

• Request authors to do another redlink check for the remaining redlinks.Do not remove any, just check once.--Vinay84 (talk) 06:44, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

• Done. As far as I can tell, all of those subjects don't yet have an article on Wikipedia. —Ed!^(talk) 00:06, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

• Lot of single sentence paragraphs especially in the initial sections.See if they can be merged or expanded.--Vinay84 (talk) 06:58, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
  • Merged most of these sentences. —Ed!^(talk) 00:06, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

• File:U.S. Army soldier securing site - Parun, Nuristan - 06-27-2007.jpg in Initial deployments section has a delete alert.
  • Replaced image with another copy without the notice. —Ed!^(talk) 00:06, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Some statements need citation and have been marked in the article. --Vinay84 (talk) 06:30, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

Which ones? I can't find any "citation needed" templates. —Ed!^(talk) 00:06, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

• It is a subordinate unit of the XVIII Airborne Corps and the only division-sized element of the US Army to specialize in fighting under harsh terrain and weather conditions. Move the statement into the article proper and give a reference.
  • Done. That statement is reiterated in the "Organization" section, with a ref. —Ed!^(talk) 16:55, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Good job till now. --Vinay84 (talk) 07:09, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

• There are dead links :E.g. Lineage and Honors of the 10th Mountain Division and 4th Brigade Combat Team Website . Check the links and references and if possible update them.
• Since you already have Fort Drum website among the references, there eis no need for it again in Eternal Links

--Vinay84 (talk) 03:20, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

• Done both points. —Ed!^(talk) 23:09, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

That is it.Looks good now. Passed. --Vinay84 (talk) 10:10, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
