Talk:Yazoo Pass expedition

Redirect page needed?
In the course of reviewing a number of different American Civil War pages dealing with Union Navy operations I have discovered a fair number of references to the Yazoo River Expedition which appear to refer to the operations described on this page. It seems like this page would benifit from having a redirect from Yazoo River Expedition to Yazoo Pass Expedition. Acwbuff276 (talk) 23:43, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Can you provide examples? As the Yazoo Pass and Yazoo River are not the same, to refer to this expedition as "the Yazoo River Expedition" is not correct, and it would be better to change the text than to redirect.PKKloeppel (talk) 16:41, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I have to agree that there's some editting that needs to be done. I went back for another look for at the pages that caused me to ask the question originally.  I find multiple operations, on different dates, referred to as a "Yazoo River Expedition."  The William Martin and John McDonald entries on the List of American Civil War Medal of Honor recipients: M–P page, by date align with the Battle of Chickasaw Bayou; the 10th Louisiana Regiment Infantry (African Descent) lists a Yazoo River expedition in Feb-Mar 1864; the USS Vindicator (1863) page referes to an expedition on the Yazoo River in Nov 1864; the USS Petrel (1862) page refers to an Apr-May 1863 expedition; and the USS Marmora (1862) page speaks to the Yazoo River Expedition, Mar 1863.  Across all of these pages it's as though if something happened on the Yazoo River it has been described as the "Yazoo River Expedition" in some way.Acwbuff276 (talk) 23:53, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Dates
According to the medal citations of Robert Williams and Peter Cotton, they participated in the Yazoo Pass expedition in December 1862. But this article about the expedition says that it "began on February 3, 1863", and doesn't mention 1862 at all. — INS Pirat (talk) 12:32, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
