Comment[edit]

Some typographical errors were corrected. Links were added as follows: (a) places, (b) military officers, (c) others -- who knew that the Staunton and Parkersburg Turnpike would have an article? Since there were so many changes I think someone else should review it. The spelling of Carlile is unusual; could it be Carlisle? The way you divided the article into small headers makes sense, but that means the pictures extend into other sections. One possibility would be to shrink the pictures and captions, but I left the pictures large. Please see how I sized them and added alt. The Template: Campaignbox Operations in West Virginia only has 1861 battles. The current article might be a more appropriate header. Yet, you should probably refer to the very extensive article, West Virginia in the American Civil War which covers 1861-1865. Djmaschek (talk) 04:29, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
