[edit] American Civil War

Previous review here

Re-nominating for Pupster21. Kirill Lokshin 12:28, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Overall, seems pretty good, and I have no problem supporting the move to A-class. The previous review said it was "choppy", and I can't comment on this as I'm not reading the entire article. Extensive coverage of the causes and effects of the war is great, as is the separate article on naming the war. Generally, the treatment of the various causes of the war looks quite well-written and well thought through, but I wonder if it doesn't still lend too much weight to the slavery issue. Something to think about. One more thing - is it true that more Americans (Union+Confederates) died in this war than in all other wars combined? Or at least more than in WWII? If so, that would be an interesting and important fact to include in the introductory section somewhere. LordAmeth 09:06, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

True, I looked it up in a book. --Pupster21 11:50, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
