 * as tensions with Spain over Cuba grew in early 1898 Pipe Cuba with the Captaincy General of Cuba.
 * Done
 * a convoy for the Siberian expedition Proper noun?
 * I don't think so, or at least that article doesn't treat it as one
 * I am not sure or expedition should be capitalised by MOS:MILTERMS. Cheers. CPA-5 (talk) 15:44, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
 * I found some sources which use with an upper case like this and this one. I also found some sources who use both with or without an upper case and some do not or "intervention" has an upper case. By MOS:MILTERMS we should capitalise every proper noun of conflict unless the majority of sources do not use an upper case. But in theory, both are acceptable; I believe there is no issue here.

 * I have a hunch that capitalizing is more common in UK/Commonwealth and less so with American references - I think that was a trend noticed when we had that huge discussion about it at MILHIST earlier this year. Parsecboy (talk) 12:42, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Ha British English is so supprising and you always learn something I think most Britons do not know how to write proper British English. ;) Anyway I don't think there is a reason to not promote it to GA. Cheers. CPA-5 (talk) 13:02, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

Sources
 * koin is not available in Europe. :L
 * Huh, I wonder why not?
 * It states "This site is currently unavailable to visitors from the European Economic Area while we work to ensure your data is protected in accordance with applicable EU laws." that's one of the things I really hate about some American news agencies who don't want to follow the European Union's laws and trust me this isn't the first time.

 * Ah, that makes sense - I had forgotten about that. Internet privacy laws aren't the only thing it'd be nice to import from the EU :/ Parsecboy (talk) 15:46, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Is anything correct formatted now I do not have access to the website which really piss me off? Cheers. CPA-5 (talk) 20:41, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Yeah, everything is formatted as the article has it - the last word in the title should be capitalized, but that's how they have it in the article itself, so I left it as they put it. Parsecboy (talk) 20:51, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
