*Consider removing links that add little to the article or that have been repeated in close proximity to other links to the same article, as per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (links) and WP:CONTEXT. Guides recommend having greater than 3% words in links, but be sure not to overlink words just to add more links.[?]
*Per Wikipedia:Context and Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates), months and days of the week generally should not be linked. Years, decades, and centuries can be linked if they provide context for the article.[?]
*Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (numbers), there should be a non-breaking space -   between a number and the unit of measurement. For example, instead of 2KL, use 2 KL, which when you are editing the page, should look like: 2 KL.[?]
*Per Wikipedia:Context and Wikipedia:Build the web, years with full dates should be linked; for example, if January 15, 2006 appeared in the article, link it as January 15, 2006.[?]
*As per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates), dates shouldn't use th; for example, instead of (if such appeared in the article) using January 30th was a great day, use January 30 was a great day.[?]
*As done in WP:FOOTNOTE, footnotes usually are located right after a punctuation mark (as recommended by the CMS, but not mandatory), such that there is no space in between. For example, the sun is larger than the moon [2]. is usually written as the sun is larger than the moon.[2][?]

message: One of the reasons for this article's failed FAC was that it relied heavily on COI material, because most of the information comes from US Army websites and press releases. What kind of sources exactly would not be COI? The Army sources are all reliable enough to me, but others seem to have a problem with them. -Ed!(talk)(Hall of Fame) 19:57, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Between footnotes 78 and 79 there is mention of "a writer" embedded with Battle Company.  The writer is Vanity Fair contributing editor Sebastian Junger, author of The Perfect Storm.  His book, WAR, published in the Spring of 2010, published by Twelve, debuted on the New York Times best-seller list at #3.  Embedded with Junger was award-winning photographer Tim Hetherington, also a Vanity Fair contributor.  Together they produced and directed the documentary Restrepo, which won the Grand Jury Prize for best documentary at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival.

message: The following was posted at EAR, but more properly belongs here. I'm posting it along with my response — TransporterMan (TALK) 19:33, 16 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: If you look at the archived official history of the unit created by the U.S. Army (you can see it by clicking here) it confirms that the unit was deactivated from 14 January 1972 - 12 June 2000. And the official website of the 173d Airborne Brigade Association (its alumni association) adopts our article here, with those dates of inactivation, as the unit's official history for that organization. (See that by clicking here.) So, I don't know what happened in your instance. I'm going to post a copy of your request over at the article talk page to see if anyone can do anything with it. You might check there from time to time, but there's a fairly good chance you may not ever get an answer. Regards, TransporterMan (TALK) 19:27, 16 December 2018 (UTC)
