3rd Battalion 3rd Marines edit

I've already got a regular Peer Review going, but I need some specialized input. The main section that needs to get expanded is the Vietnam section, but the article also needs some copyediting and just an overall review. I want to nominate this for a Featured Article no later than mid-May, so anyone who can help is welcome. Palm_Dogg 20:20, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Very nice, overall. A few minor issues to work on, though:

  • If you have both a notes section and a separate references one, all the sources used in the former must also be present in the latter.
  • The see also section should be eliminated; it should be quite easy to work these links into the text.
  • I'm not convinced that starting off with a section on the origin of the name is the best arrangement; I would suggest starting off with the history section instead.
  • Extended quotes should use blockquote tags.
  • Month/day combinations need to be linked to allow date preferences to work.
  • Rank abbreviations (e.g. "LtCol") should really be avoided; the general reader will likely have no idea what they refer to.

Took your suggestions, but haven't had time to do the references/notes transfer. Palm_Dogg 06:35, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
