Comments
Some suggestions - let me know what you think. --Harper J. Cole (talk) 17:16, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Replace the comma with "and".
 * Done.
 * Following the link, it looks like they're known as the "National Society of United States Daughters of 1812" (with an extra "of").
 * Added an extra "of".
 * The "he" in this sentence could be taken to refer to Leslie; recommend specifying Amateis.
 * Specified Amateis.
 * Do we know why they didn't go with Amateis's design?
 * Unfortunately, none of the sources I could find made mention of why this was, so I was unable to add that information to the article. If I ever find a reputable source that discusses this in detail, however, I will update the article accordingly.
 * Perhaps better to say that it was projected to be at most 10k (since it actually turned out to cost 12k)?
 * Done.
 * Either "appropriated ... for the project" or "donated ... to the project".
 * Changed "to" to "for".
 * You don't need to hyphenate "36 years old" in this instance. You would hyphenate where used before a noun ("36-year-old man") or instead of a noun ("the 36-year-old was happy").
 * Removed hyphenation.
 * Missing period at the end of this sentence.
 * Added period.
 * Does this refer to the Macomb statue, or the Maybury statue?
 * It was in reference to the Macomb monument, and I have edited the article to specify this.
 * Hyphenate "spray-painted".
 * Done.
 * "Concrete aggregate" can be wikilinked to Construction aggregate.
 * Done.
 * , I just wanted to reach out to let you know that I have made some edits to the article to address the points you raised in your review. Apologies for the late reply and thanks for starting this review, and if there are any further questions, comments, or concerns you have regarding this article, please reach out.
