== New sections copied from WP == | |||
For whatever reason, an author has changed the section on Greene's retreat across the Dan River to mirror WP verbatim [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathanael_Greene#The_strategic_retreat]. While I am not opposed to that section being expanded on, I am against removing the original, approved sections and replacing them with something that was written at WP. I would recommend reverting the sections back to their approved state and incorporating any new changes to the existing text. --[[User:Todd Coles|Todd Coles]] 11:53, 8 January 2008 (CST) | |||

Legacy
I am aware that many things have been named for Nathanael Greene (Greensboro, South Carolina, several schools, etc.), and WP even has a long unsourced list. I am unsure where, or if, these should be included in the article. Does anyone have any opinions on this? --Todd Coles 08:20, 22 August 2007 (CDT)
Approval
I think you should get an editor to look this over. Perhaps add a few books in the Bibliography too Denis Cavanagh 08:07, 30 August 2007 (CDT)
- The problem with more books is that there just aren't a lot of books written on him specifically. There are plenty of American Revolution surveys and general military histories out there, but I figured I would concentrate the books here as specifically on his life as I could. (I'm tired, I don't know if that's making sense..)
- Yes, I think it is very close, if not ready for approval. I've notified Richard Jensen about it, and I know he is aware of it, so I'm just going to leave it in his hands unless another editor comes along.
- Thanks for the comment! --Todd Coles 08:28, 30 August 2007 (CDT)
This article is set to be offically approved today, and I'd like it to include the most recent edit I made, which was after the nomination.. it was a typo, as you can see in the history. --Todd Coles 09:21, 5 September 2007 (CDT)
Well done Todd, looking good! Denis Cavanagh 16:03, 5 September 2007 (CDT)
APPROVED Version 1.0
New sections copied from WP
For whatever reason, an author has changed the section on Greene's retreat across the Dan River to mirror WP verbatim [1]. While I am not opposed to that section being expanded on, I am against removing the original, approved sections and replacing them with something that was written at WP. I would recommend reverting the sections back to their approved state and incorporating any new changes to the existing text. --Todd Coles 11:53, 8 January 2008 (CST)
