I've done a little bit of tidying up to the article as I went through it. Please check that you are comfortable with my changes. Otherwise, I only have the following comments:
Lead
[edit]- One matter still requiring attention is a missing word: two-and-one-half story brick ? to replace... is this is the keeper's house? The same issue is present in the Current Tower section.
History
[edit]- "...and the grave of British Ensign and Assistant Adjutant Watkins". I assume Watkins was a casualty of the battle? I suggest reordering this bit to follow the guff about the attempted landing? And is there still a headstone for the Watkins grave?
- I fixed it up a little, but the grave apparently is to the south, but I have no information on its location or if a marker was ever erected. Sorry, I only get these repeated accounts and nothing more. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
Current tower
[edit]- The last sentence looks like it needs attention: repeated subject matter and the guff RE Elizur Thompson looks like it should be elsewhere.
- Fixed. Was additional information that I didn't put in chronologically. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
References
[edit]- The formatting of the citations is a little inconsistent. The book references are missing place of publication and ref 5 is missing page numbers.
- Place of publication? The publisher is located in Massachusetts, but is that really necessary? Fixed the the page numbers. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
Other stuff
[edit]- Image tags OK although postcard pic is missing author information. Mind you, I I'm not sure if it is a GA requirement.
- There is no authorial credit and I didn't upload it, but these postcards were just that... post cards. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
- No dup links
- NO disambig links
- External links OK
I'll check back in a week or so but ping me if you get to it sooner. Cheers. Zawed (talk) 08:56, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
