Editing The Battle section
The paragraph under The Battle is cited, but there is a mismatch between the article's text and the material in the cited text. See the two bullet points below. The article's text under The Battle will be edited since it is incorrectly cited.
 * The text was under The Battle is the following. "On May 18, Banks learned that Maj. Gen. Richard Taylor's force was near Yellow Bayou, so he ordered Brig. Gen. Andrew Jackson Smith to stop them. Since Smith could not comply himself, he ordered Brig. Gen. Joseph A. Mower to meet Taylor. The Yankees attacked and drove the Rebels to their main line. The Confederates counterattacked, forcing the Federals to give ground. The Confederate and Union troops would push each other back and forth for several hours until the ground cover caught fire forcing both sides to retire."
 * The website, https://www.stoppingpoints.com/louisiana/Avoyelles/Battle+of+Yellow+Bayou.html, which is used to cite the statement in the first bullet point, states this: "Also known as Norwood's Plantation, fought May 18, 1864. Last battle of Bank's Red River Campaign. General Richard Taylor's Confederate army failed to prevent Union army crossing Atchafalaya River at Simmesport."
