message: I noticed that there was nothing in the article about the state being forbidden from deficit spending due partially to the conflict, so I added the last paragraph.

message: At the moment, this article has no chance. Below is a list of the more obvious problems. Once these are fixed, bring it back to GA and renominate it, but don't come back without having them done as the article will just fail all over again.
#The lead is a mess. Please edit it into two tight paragraphs explaining as simply as possible the context and effects this incident had and indicate whay it is exceptional or notable.
#Sources. Here is the biggest problem. Swathes of the article, including whole paragraphs, are unsourced. For a GA, there should be at least one inline citation per paragraph and more on any controversial statements or statistics. This article is not only grossly undercited, but many of the citations are presented in raw URLs which must be changed (see WP:CITE). There are  tags and a clean-up tag at the top.
#The text is scattered by weasel words and poor grammar, although there is good use of images and quotes.
Please give this article a thorough copyedit and clean up the sourcing before bringing it back to GA.--Jackyd101 (talk) 14:25, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: GA Review

message: The article relies heavily on only a couple of sources and period journalism; some third-party scholarly sources would be useful for perspective.--Parkwells (talk) 19:52, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Sources need improvement

message: Based on reading even AR Encyclopedia articles, the reliance on Gazette makes this seriously flawed and POV.  I've started to rewrite it with additional material and cites, but it needs more work. --Parkwells (talk) 21:10, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: POV

message: I was messing with the references and something weird happened. It appears to have captured one of the old quotes I pulled out of microfilm. I've played with it a while and can't figure out what the problem is, may be someone else can. --The_stuart (talk) 02:01, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

message: As I was going through the bibliography, Sandy archived the thread.  The article has merit, it is just not up to snuff yet.  The citations were difficult to follow, although i fixed the Appleton's cites.  The newspaper articles need proper citation (paper (location), article, date, page).  See the MOS for specific citation styles.  Auntieruth55 (talk) 00:14, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  continuing issues 

message: I suspect that the clear POV running through this article merely reflects the POV of the sources; really, one should not write on Reconstruction with sources dating only up to 1922. For more, see my comments at FAC. If one must use contemporary sources, at least balance them; isn't the Chicago Tribune available on line?  Septentrionalis PMAnderson 23:45, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: If you can find a Chicago Tribune article on the Brooks-Baxter War I would be more than happy to consider it. http://www.chicagotribune.com/search/dispatcher.front?Query=brooks-baxter+war&target=article&sortby=display_time+descending

thread_title: Tag

message: If he is relevant at all it should be mentioned that Republicans both supported and voted for the 1965 voting rights act, and that he wasn't a segregationist; far from it he defeated the segregationist James Johnson. Many people even consider the democratic nominee who faced Rockefeller to have been one of the last viable segregationist politicians; his defeat was the end of an era and start of a new one; not an endorsement of segregation.
I will edit it right now to reflect historical accuracy, the defeat of one of the last segregationists was not a victory for segregation and the article shouldn't pretend it is.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.56.186.182 (talk) 22:06, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

message: We really need to reconsider some of the highly biased and derogatory terms in this article. Especially since these rhetorical terms were developed by those using the political machinery to exclude African-Americans from voting and the terms exist to justify and normalize this exclusion of African-Americans from political participation.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:05, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
