Reviewing |
- This review is transcluded from Talk:Monroe Doctrine Centennial half dollar/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.
Reviewer: HueSatLum (talk · contribs) 02:49, 2 March 2013 (UTC) I will be happy to review this article. If you disagree with any of the changes suggested below, don't hesitate to tell me. HueSatLum 02:49, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
- If the "United States Bureau of the Mint" is the same as the United States Mint, it should be changed and linked.
- "Oregon country" → "Oregon Country"
- Link "British Foreign Minister"
- "Depression" → "Great Depression"
- "Mexican-American War" → "Mexican–American War" per MOS:DASH
- "Panama-Pacific Exposition" → "Panama–Pacific Exposition" again per MOS:DASH
- Capitalize "congressional"
- Link "Panama Canal"
- Link "monogram"
- Link only the first mention of Bowers' name should be linked.
- The United States Bureau of the Mint is what the present United States Mint was formally called until, I think, about 1990 (until 1873 it was formally the Mint of the United States). I can go with referring to it either way. I disagree on congressional; my understanding that the MOS thinks it should be lower case. Thank you for the review.Wehwalt (talk) 03:34, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
- OK, done those. I disagree on congressional, and I don't quite see where Bowers' name is linked multiple times in the text. I've also linked Panama Canal in a picture caption to avoid linking in a quotation, which is disfavored.Wehwalt (talk) 04:08, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry, it's not linked in the text, it's under "Other sources"; his name should not be linked for parts 36 and 37 of "Chapter 8: Silver commemoratives (and clad too)". Congressional and Panama Canal fine. HueSatLum 14:42, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
- Fixed. I left one link there.--Wehwalt (talk) 15:15, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

typo?
[edit]To User:Wehwalt:
I'm translating this article to Chinese Wikipedia here, just finished, only one typo found: footnote NO. 19, "Garopalo", but I can only found "Garofalo, Michael (February 2015). "Hooray for Hollywood!". The Numismatist: 34–40." below, which one is correct? Garofalo or Garopalo? --Jarodalien (talk) 06:42, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
- It's Garofalo. I double-checked the source. Thanks for pointing that out. Hope the article is useful.--Wehwalt (talk) 10:46, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

I have already translate more than 400 featured article to Chinese Wikipedia, this is the 25th which you contribute most, politics, law, music, money and architecture, such a wide coverage.
