 * GA review (see here for criteria) (see here for this contributor's history of GA reviews)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written:
 * Comments
 * 1) To be politically correct I would avoid calling United States Citizens "Americans" in the lead (that term is generally contested by other cultures on the American continents.
 * 2) I'd suggest merging "naming" and "background" into one section. You could probably just put the "naming" line at the end of "background."
 * 3) "Background" should be a self-sustaining section that doesn't require you to link to another article for more context. Was this in the beginning, middle or end of the war? How was the war progressing. Two short lines on these should bring a reader up to date pretty easily.
 * 4) Prelude section: "since intelligence informed him that Howe had left behind equipment for crossing the Delaware River behind, that he was unlikely to be heading for Philadelphia." - Sentence needs rewording.
 * 5) "British numbers forced Stirling, as determined as he was to stand against his foe," - editorializing. Please use more neutral language than "foe."
 * 6) It is factually accurate and verifiable:
 * Pass No problems there.
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage:
 * Pass Covers the battle.
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy:
 * Pass
 * 1) It is stable:
 * Pass
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate:
 * Pass
 * 1) Overall:
 * On Hold pending a few minor things. — Ed! (talk) 04:21, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
