List of United States Military Academy alumni (Confederate States Army)

 * Nominator(s):  — Rlevse • Talk  • 03:14, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because it's next in the series of United States Military Academy alumni featured lists, working towards making it a featured topic like we did with United States Naval Academy alumni lists.  — Rlevse • Talk  • 03:14, 27 January 2010 (UTC) :Note: This is a WikiCup nomination.

Mm40 (talk) 13:02, 13 February 2010 (UTC) not any more, it sat on FLC so long I'm out.  — Rlevse • Talk  • 01:18, 1 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment - Some of the pictures need better alt text. Is there a reason why the General References are in every Reference column with the note template? Afro  ( Its More Than a Feeling ) - Afkatk 10:11, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
 * As for the Gen Refs, it's simply that I've done other lists in this series like that and no one has objected and I had people look at this one before listing at FLC. I guess they could come out but I'd prefer to leave them in. As for ALT text, which ones? Saying "some" doesn't tell me which ones you think need tweaked.  — Rlevse •  Talk  • 12:13, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Well the only problem I see with the General References is that you've added them as notes but they are used so much as notes its a wonder why they aren't in the, and to me it almost makes them seem not so general because of this. The Alt Text might not be a problem but might be more just me. Afro  ( Its More Than a Feeling ) - Afkatk 09:03, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Additional Comment - ""Civil War Generals from West Point". University of Tennessee – Knoxville. 2003. Retrieved 2009-064-28." 064? Afro  ( Its More Than a Feeling ) - Afkatk 17:55, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Done. — Rlevse • Talk  • 00:48, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Support, all issues resolved. Dabomb87 (talk) 15:25, 13 February 2010 (UTC) Support I don't see any problems. Well done.--Kumioko (talk) 22:34, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Refs Named references "johnston" and "beverly" are defined twice. Civil War High Commands is used multiple times with different page numbers— you can leave it that way or merge and note the page numbers with rp. ---— Gadget850 (Ed)  talk 11:38, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Fixed the two refs. As for page numbers, I'd rather leave as is since most people don't like RP format. <span style="font-family:Verdana,sans-serif"> — <b style="color:#060;">Rlevse</b> • Talk  • 12:29, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Comments from
 * General
 * Content checked by tools in toolbox check out fine.
 * There is no other possible way in adding sections (ie. see also/external links?)
 * Lead
 * Note: "Class year" refers to the alumni's class year, which usually is the same year they graduated. However, in times of war classes often graduate early. -- Comma after war classes-- T ru  c o   503 02:42, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Support -- meets FL standards, although I would still like to see an addition of more sections (ie. See also/external links).-- T ru  c o   503 00:02, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
 * See also? Have you looked at the extensive links in the templates? Serves the same purpose. External links? As you said, hardly required, not to mention the massive info avail in the extensive refs. <span style="font-family:Verdana,sans-serif"> — <b style="color:#060;">Rlevse</b> • Talk  • 00:36, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Very true, I apologize for the inconvenience. T ru  c o   503 03:05, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
