[edit] Military History of Puerto Rico

Self-nom, I've written articles for Wikipedia since May 2004. I've worked on this project as a way of celebrating my first year with Wiki. I hope that you all like it and that it meets Wikipedias standards. Tony the Marine

I just wanted to add that I wrote the article in a "timeline style", a chronological order of military events which occured. I didn't want the article to be too long, therefore I added many wiki links to articles (some of which were written by me) for the reader who would be interested in more specific details of a certain event or person. I hope that you all enjoy it. Tony the Marine

  • Support. Good article; some things (such as format of the references) should be looked over, but all in all good article. Linuxbeak 11:47, May 5, 2005 (UTC)
  • Object. Not a very good paragraph structure - some free floating sentences with repetitive structure. Short paragraphs, etc. --Oldak Quill 12:43, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Object. In addition to Oldak objection: Lead is too short. References = external links, and are not formated (last acess on...?). At least one elink in main body (remove, link with note). I wouldn't worry about the lenght - feel free to expand from the linked articles, so that each section is larger then a section-stub. Besides that - good work, with some help should be ready for FA. A general note: try using Peer Review before FAC - why so many people forget about this? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 16:49, 7 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Object. The article should mention Fort Buchanan, Puerto Rico, the only U.S. Army port in the Caribbean. Plus it could be illustrated by lots of public domain images; see [1]. Neutralitytalk 06:18, May 23, 2005 (UTC)
  • Support. Well written, nice article. Every article can be made better, but I think this article is as good or better than other featured articles we've had in the past. This one has my vote.Cjrs 79 21:48, May 23, 2005 (UTC)
