1.
 * " Chesapeake and Ohio railroad" - My gut instinct is that Railroad should be capitalized and part of the link, as it's part of the name of the railway
 * ✅ --Doug Coldwell (talk) 09:52, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Sheboygan is a duplink
 * ✅ --Doug Coldwell (talk) 09:55, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * " In 1879 she was made into a barge" - Comma after 1879
 * ✅ --Doug Coldwell (talk) 09:57, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * "Her engines first went to Alaska and then later to Frank E. Kirby" - Is this after the barge conversion or after she was scrapped?

2.
 * The quote for ref 18 is unrelated to the statement it's supporting, it can likely be removed
 * ✅ --Doug Coldwell (talk) 10:30, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * What's the provenance of carferries.com? It looks a touch like a personal website.  I'm unfamiliar with it's history, is this an RS?
 * ✅ - removed. --Doug Coldwell (talk) 10:36, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Ref 13 via newspapers.com
 * ✅ --Doug Coldwell (talk) 10:41, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * For the long refs for the sources, spell out the acronyms, these acronyms aren't instantly identifiable with an organization for most readers.
 * ✅ --Doug Coldwell (talk) 10:46, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * See if there's OCLCs for any of the refs, worldcat is super helpful. For the sources that are from periodicals, see if the periodical has an ISSN.

 * What's the etymology of the ship's name? I'm assuming maybe John Sherman, but if known, it should be included.
 * ✅ - researched and not known for sure. No reference for that.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 12:26, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * "The craft was then rebuilt in 1877 as a passenger steamer operating out of Detroit. In 1879 she was made into a barge and served that purpose until 1893" - You never explicitly state the fate of the vessel.

Placing on hold, I'll give it another look through after these are addressed. Hog Farm (talk) 00:49, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
