 * Nikkimaria—thank you for looking over this. TwoScars (talk) 20:41, 11 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Missing bibliographic details for McClure 1879
 * Fixed -- easier to use another reference. TwoScars (talk) 20:41, 11 March 2018 (UTC)
 * See also should go before references
 * Fixed TwoScars (talk) 20:41, 11 March 2018 (UTC)
 * File:West_Virginia_Civil_War_Medal.png: since this is a 3D work, should include a copyright tag for the original work as well as the photo. Nikkimaria (talk) 20:22, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Help! I am ignorant of what needs to be done here. I changed the description to "This medal, which belonged to a relative of mine, is the West Virginia Class I "Honorably Discharged" medal given to West Virginia Union soldiers in 1866 in appreciation of their service in the American Civil War. The artist listed as the main person responsible for the medal's design is J. Sigel. The West Virginia Division of Culture and History has more background on these medals." The medal belongs to me, and I took the picture. My relative probably received it in 1866. Should the date be changed to 1866?
 * I think I fixed it. TwoScars (talk) 12:29, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

 * link "Medal of Honor" on first mention
 * Fixed. Wikilinked in Monterey Pass section. TwoScars (talk) 16:59, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * in the Final muster out section, I suggest mentioning whether or not the regiment is perpetuated by any later units
 * Citation # 2, "UNION WEST VIRGINIA VOLUNTEERS" should be "Union West Virginia Volunteers" per MOS:ALLCAPS
 * Fixed. As info, the web page has it in all caps. TwoScars (talk) 16:19, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * same as above for Citation # 154
 * Fixed TwoScars (talk) 16:19, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * in the References: "A guidebook to Virginia's historical markers" should use title case capitalization
 * Fixed. Also same treatment to Farrar and Spicher. TwoScars (talk) 16:31, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * the article could probably be added to the following categories: Category:Military units and formations established in 1861 and Category:Military units and formations disestablished in 1865
 * Added both TwoScars (talk) 16:31, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * there are a few overlinked terms, for instance: Henry Capehart; Berryville, Virginia; J. E. B. Stuart; Wheeling Island; Richmond in the American Civil War; Wesley Merritt;
 * Fixed Henry Capehart. Will get to others tomorrow. TwoScars (talk) 17:03, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Fixed the others. TwoScars (talk) 16:44, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
 * the grammar here isn't quite right: Private Daniel A. Woods, of Company K, received his medal for "Capture of flag..
 * Reworded and dropped extra quote for Houlton. TwoScars (talk) 16:59, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
