Initial thoughts

• Can you confirm that where a citation appears at the end of a paragraph, it covers the material covered therein?

Reply: Yes. I generally use only one if it covers everything in the paragraph, but I use two or more if each covers only some of the claims in the paragraph. If you see any claims that you think need a citation in closer proximity, let me know, and I'll revise. Finetooth (talk) 17:11, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

• Does "Euro-American" refer to new european settlers to america or people of european ethnicity who moved westwards?

Reply: Broadly speaking, they were U.S. citizens who moved westwards. It seems likely to me that a few individuals of various backgrounds and ethnicities came from elsewhere, but I have nothing to support that idea. Finetooth (talk) 17:11, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

• Prose is fine
• No copyvio found

• • By Euro-American, the article definitely means Americans of European ethnicity. I cannot answer your first question, though, since I wasn't the one who prepared this for a GAN. Jsayre64 (talk) 04:57, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

I have reviewed the rest of the criteria and since my computer restarted last time I wrote it all out, I shall just say it passes as a Good Article.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 19:46, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
