• The ISBN for Donovan, James (2008). A Terrible Glory: Custer and The Little Bighorn needs checking

Y I fixed the ISBN mistake. RG (talk) 20:45, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

• More in line citations are required - the first sentence has two then the rest of the paragraph only has one at the end. There are several statements in the paragraph that should be cited.

Which statements are you refering to? Basically everything in the rest of that paragraph is in covered in that lone source at the end. RG (talk) 05:45, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

• The same with the second paragraph, there are four citations two thirds of the way in and its not clear what cite is for what fact. I can add cn tags if that would help

Yes, the cn tags would be very helpful. RG (talk) 05:45, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

• First paragraph of the First years as a scout section could use more in line citations

The cn tags might be useful here as well. RG (talk) 05:45, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

• It needs a good copy edit can I suggest you post a request here Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors

I've sent in a request. RG (talk) 05:45, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

On hold

I will put the review on hold until after the copy edit. Jim Sweeney (talk) 17:28, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

It seems there is a large backlog for copy edits. I will fail the article for now and revisit once the copy edit is completed. Jim Sweeney (talk) 22:58, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
