Article Evaluation: "Dahomey Amazons"

It seems that their needs to be a citation in the second section "Origin," after making the claim that Dahomey was becoming more militaristic, and a certain king was placing more emphasis on the female warriors.

The last sentence of the "Origin" section did not seem to fit with the rest of the section.

"Ghezo" is linked to another Wikipedia article in most places in the article, but it is not in the "Recruitment" section.

There are no citations for a whole paragraph under the "Recruitment" section.

Writer says that "the reports also noted variously," which is a grammatical error as well as lacking a necessary citation for said "reports." (under "Combat and Structure")

Several capitalization errors.

The presence of female soldiers that reflect the female soldiers of Dahomey in the movie Black Panther could be added to the "Popular Culture" section.
